Association is an imperfict two way street.
If nate is reasonably smart the feedback to his post should give him a window to ponder the possibilty his pain and pleasure is more the direct results of his
actions towards others than thier
reactions back.
I don't know how old nate really is. His opening statement shows real frustartation and hurt on his part. The responders who seem to know him describe a boy who is very excited to play a game in the company of adults but does not understand the unspoken rules of conduct between adults to ensure a postive outcome to recreational group activities.
As expected for his age and physical brain development, he is excited to be with all of us which is the source of his currently low threashold of ability to control his impulses. When he gets happy, excited, scared or angry he quickly looses control of his critical factor which roughly equates to that part of your brain as adults that helps you to self moderate.
Nate,
You may not realise the goldmine you have here. Yes, being in the company of these adults will cost you many of your pranks, telling everyone how much you like being with them all the time and not worring about anything you choose to do or say.
But, if they really didn't care about the possiblity you can learn from their responses. This post would have died without a single word from anyone. Creating this post means you don't want to leave the game. Please think about the feelings of others as you read their replys.
It seems as unhappy and hurt your are, you may have accidentaly made them feel the same way over time.
