Corafree,
I understand your frustration. I find it bewildering too. I worry that maybe I'm writing something that will bother a particular babbler who has an issue with something- but I'm not sure- has X changed names to Y? When in doubt, avoid posting to them, or avoid posting something that might be too personal. Just keep it supportive. (or social, in this case :o) )I personally am kind of bothered by your post. I recently changed my name. I followed the procedures that Dr. Bob asks us to follow. I feel liberated by changing my name. I didn't change it with the purpose of hurting or sneaking around anyone on psycho-babble.
I come here for support, and if changing my name makes me feel better about myself, and about posting here, then I don't see why it has to be seen as "sneaky" or deceptive or anything negative at all.
plus, I think my new name is prettier than the old one.
It's like getting a haircut. Maybe it throws people off- but I cannot worry excessively about the random people who will be confused- it's MY head!
