Many times I'll start writing a post (here on this board)only to stop and "X" out of it. Sometimes it's a new post and other times it's a response to an existing post. Call it self censorship or what ever, but many times I find myself not wanting to post something.

Do you ever find your self doing this?

Your thoughts?

I do the same thing. I'll be typing away at record speed and notice too many errors. Instead of fixing it or being more careful, I just eliminate everything and don't post. Rarely will I make a fresh start. Whatever the topic or reply if I've eliminated it, then it is unlikely I try again.

It happens all the time with me. Usually, it's because it wanders off-topic or else it just sounds stupid.

Yes, but sadly it's because I think what I typed will implicate either the stripper, myself, or you guys, and I don't want that to happen. I really want to be open to you guys, but more and more I find myself watching out for people who might want to use what we say here against us.

Often, and usually for the same reason(s).

I delete what I type quite a lot as well and end up not posting as much.
