Ok, some forum members might not get the Rodney Dangerfield reference I was going for in the second option.

I’m not just talking about the forum, but in life in general. I feel well-respected by the people in my life: friends, colleagues, students, as well as here on the forum. I’ve found that with respect, like so many things in life, you get what you give. I show people respect, and they respect me in turn. One’s perception could greatly influence if they feel respected by others, though.

Idk, I’m bored and this all I could come up with. I don’t know why I got to thinking about Rodney Dangerfield. :rofl:

Haha!

Rodney Dangerfield was in this decent 80’s movie about a dad who goes to college with his son.

I think when the producers made it, they casted Dangerfield in mind to try and introduce him to a younger audience.

I have a lot of respect I’ve built up at the cricket club. Been there for twenty years with some time off. Been a captain of the lower grade sides. Been on the committee. Been secretary and done a lot of volunteer work for the club. When I have an opinion people listen but that respect has been built up with time and hard work!

People who know me fairly well respect me and some strangers for a reason I don’t know.

The only man I ever thought of marrying was a man I couldn’t have respected. It made me think marrying is basically hostile.

I feel respected by my neighbors, the librarian, parents, some cousins, and members of the clergy. But what I lack is respect for myself. I’m getting better though inch by inch.

My brother tells me I should keep my mouth shut when I want to say something intelligent.

That doesn’t fly with me.

I spent most of my life, 33 years, feeling like everyone dissed me. Today, I feel like I get about as much respect as everyone else does. Not more, not less. Every average person that is.

I feel I get average respect.
Some people could respect me more, some should probably respect me less. It all adds up and averages.

I do not agree.

I am polite and kind and respectful to people but they disrespect me.

I think it’s cause they want to have power over/ of me .

They can be very hateful rude and disrespectful.

Even my own family.

Also I do not think they are superior to me and they do.

It sometimes makes me want to isolate again .

I rather be alone than with people who treat me that way and I do not want to be restrained either where they tie my energy some how .
All of them against me alone
As s child and again as s adult.

I am thankful for my parents.

:pray:t3::two_hearts:

Praise n blessed they be
