Pownce : Note From soapsuds

I did this once before and it's really a shame that I feel the need to do it again. Especially from a hospital bed. But unfortunately, life fucking sucks and you really don't get to pick the times you have to deal with shit.

Yes, I WAS a stripper. I am no longer a stripper. I'm not something for anyone to look at as a piece of meat any longer, to hit on, put down or judge. I am a person first and foremost. I have feelings, and I hurt like anyone else. I am not a slut, a whore, nor do I behave like one.

If you have a problem with what I used to do for a living, then feel free to take yourself off my list. I will make no apologies for past decisions I made, nor will I take shit for it NOW. I already deal with the feelings I have towards myself on a daily basis. I don't need your negative opinions to drive me farther down.

If you really, truly feel you are perfect and better than me, then I feel sorry for you. Because no one is perfect and no one is without faults.

Don't friend me to try and hit on me, don't PM me your bullshit. If you don't like me or what you feel I represent, then just have the decency to leave me the hell alone.

I'm sorry there are ignorant assholes that are bothering you Marissa. On a normal day you shouldn't have to put up with it, nevermind when you are sick. I think they should just get a life and a brain and leave you alone! If you are on your laptop, i'd be blocking their ass. You shouldn't have to apologize or explain to anyone!

They might keep doing it knowing that its bothering you, so try to ignore it, as hard as it is to do at times. Concentrate on getting yourself healthy and karma will take care of the rest. *hugs*

Lame!

Hope you get well soon we are all pulling for you.

Heather : Thank you.
Marissa T. replied Aug 30th

Sean : Thank you.

Supposed to be out of here today, just not sure exactly when the doctor will be by. Then I can go lay in my own bed at home, rest there.

The same moral idiots criticize others but can't seem to look at themselves and their indiscretions

Feel better.
Tim F. replied Aug 30th

Just stick with the group of folks you have grown to know on here. Totally agree with Heather. Very happy to hear you are getting out of the hospital today!! :-)
brendan s. replied Aug 30th

congrats on getting out of the hospital, and no i would never judge you....
Mike L. replied Aug 30th

People on pownce are giving you a hard time? The va mafia is ready to bust some kneecaps.
John N. replied Aug 30th

People who are so quick to judge should take a serious look at themselves.

Love yourself for who you are today...and get well ASAP.
Jakov C. replied Aug 30th

Nobody should be hassled about their past. I wish you well. All I know is that I love your cartoon posts so get out of there and keep them coming ;)

Wow, that sucks that people are giving you shit for what you used to do. I've known several dancers over the years (and even dated one), and most of them were good people.

Too bad people focus more on what someone HAS done rather than focus on what they ARE doing.

Sometimes I feel really bad for the human race.

'cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, oh no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today

Thanks everyone. Your kind words mean a lot. More than you know.

Ben : I'm trying. :)
Leah S. replied Aug 30th

you need to put a *drama filter* at the top

seriously, we all have a past. and i'm sure whoever is bugging you does too. i have things i'm not proud of either. just concentrate on feel better. thats whats most important right now.
Carolyn S. replied Aug 30th

I have two words to say: fuck 'em.

If someone gives you shit, block them. I'm with !mikelewis, you have a lot of people here that will back you up.

*hugs*
Carlos B. replied Aug 30th

There is a lot of ignorant people out there, if it makes you feel better... "what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger"... peace.
Kris F. replied Aug 30th

every single one of us has things in our past. We're all human. You're just a cool person, first thing I noticed was your interest in modernism (which I also have). :)

biggest thing I would say is concentrating on getting better now. Your state of mind has everything to do with your recovery. You're too nice to worry about negative things. Just get better :)
Tashfeen M. replied Aug 30th

The good part: you're finally getting out of hospital, which is cause for celebration enough. The bad part: not any really, since folks who're trying to poke you pointing at your past aren't even worth our most idle thoughts.

I'm glad to have met someone like you online. It's not the sun, it's individuals like you who keep the world moving in the right direction. Take care!
Ben B. replied Aug 30th

Honey, I'd put all these people in a set called "the good ones". Let the bar be set very high for any others who wish to be included.

I fell in love with the girl I met. Not her past. What came before me is a non-issue. I only look forward to what is to come.
Tashfeen M. replied Aug 30th

@Ben kudos! :)

Yes, I agree with !DownByLaw . What's in the past is... well, in the past. People just don't get that sometimes, mainly because they're low-life pond scum things who think it's funny to hurt people.

Joke's on them. We're behind you, Marissa. :)

I don't know what your going through, but I will pray for you. Hope you feel better.

Awww you are one tough cookie! I wish you the best!

Wow. If I wasn't straight, married and, well, straight (did I say that?), I'd marry Ben.

Make it a non-issue, Marissa. Don't let yourself be sucked into feeling like you need to defend yourself, or your past. You don't. All our decisions bring us to this day and place.

Wow. Got more sentimental than I intended. I think I need a cocoa.
Marissa T. replied Aug 31st

!preachason : That's the plan. :)
Stephen R. replied Sep 1st

If theres one thing I've discovered about this world, its there's a ton of aholes. By being able to divulge straightforwardly your past, its made you move on to what you are now. And those of us here who aren't aholes care about who you are now, period.

At least now you have a filtering method to keep those people where they belong, right?

"Let him who is without sin cast the first stone." Yeah, that's what I thought.
