Greekchat-aholics....you know you're addicted when...

[lifesaver]

Help.

Please someone help me.

I am a greek-chatholic.

I don't post often, but am always here, lurking. I am a graphic artist, so I have an excuse to always be at my computer "working". It shouldn't take three weeks to design a billboard, should it? My boss once threatened to take away my internet. I threatened to quit. I won. I still have the internet. Thank god they don't monitor my web usage here. I'd be fired for sure.

Please tell me something I don't know...I just starting using this a week ago, and I'm already a greek-chataholic.

Oh well, I guess I'll live!

I knew I was a GreekChat-aholic when I practically went into convulsions because I couldn't connect to this server from work for a week! I managed to connect at home a few days ago. Now that the connection is back up at work, I am soooo much better!!

Hi, I'm ZChi4Life, and I'm addicted to Greekchat.com [/B][/QUOTE]


Last week, when Greek Chat was down for the day... I started to get the shakes but then went to Followers and found other greek chatters going thru the same thing! The only problem is the other site is so hard to follow so it did not satisfy my craving! I guess I am addicted too!

I, too, go to public computer rooms here and pay (not much, but still) by the hour to use the computer, make my sorority's homepage (I also must write html by hand), occasionally chat, but most importantly, check m email and read this site.

If I've said something humorous, I find myself hoping throughout the day that someone has noticed. If I've said something possible offensive, I prepare myself with responses in case anyone responds to my posts in anger. I feel all the emotions of life here: happiness, anger, sadness.

How can I live without greek chat? I'm afraid if I stop now, I'll go through withdrawl symptoms. Maybe my index finger will keep twitching, wanting to "click" on various links . . .

Hello,

I'm Jazbri and I too am a GC-aholic. What's more pathetic is that I am not Greek, nor will I ever reach those heights; yet- I find all this stuff fascinating.

I too submit posts and wait in trepidation to be slammed on what I post. I desperately wait for someone to find a shared experience in my reply or if I am really lucky-- I get a LMAO!!!

Pathetic. I'm down to three times a day... My only prayer is that the site doesn't go down again for a day. Who in the hell would I talk to?

Hi, my name is Midwestdiva, and I too am a Greekchataholic. At first it was something I checked once in a while, reading silently. Then one day, I decided to register. My life has changed drastically since that day. I don't have a computer at home, so I log on at work and on my days off I go over to my relatives homes that have computers, or even to the library. On the average day, I will check in at least 5-7 times, going from forum to forum, then to check my email. I even find myself discussing some of the threads here with my greek friends in the real world. They're getting to the point where they ask me if there were any interesting discussions here. I also get disappointed when I check GC on the weekends and there aren't many new posts to read through. As if people have better things to do on the weekend than come to Greekchat.

hello,
I started this thread and I'd just like to say that I am STILL addicted to GreekChat. I don't really post as much as I used to, but I still log on about 3-4 times a day! I just love being on GreekChat!

Midwestdiva--
I share these threads w/ my friends too! But unfortunately, some of them think I'm kind of a dork for being on here so much.
But that's ok, I will always love GC and our little community!...aaaahhh can't ya just feel the love?!

Hi, my name is parrotthead,
At first I started coming and reading because I was thinking about going greek, and I even was bold enough to start a topic, asking some questions that I had, Now, after having been home for four weeks for break, Ive found that its out of control, I get on and just read and read and read.,lol

[Rhoyal Blue_22]

Ok, I must admit, I am a greekchat-aholic as well. No matter what my goal is, once I get on the computer, I must stop by and see what's going on. Even though I have not met any of you that chat, I feel like I know you all. How scary is that

Hello, my name is Amy and I'm a Greekchat-Aholic.
I became one back during some contraversy involving my organization and have found everyone's support and words of encouragement so uplifting, that I stayed!
Now I anticipate reading the threads at least three times a day!
I can't help it...it's too powerful!

Okay, I only discovered this site a few days ago and am already an addict! I work at a pretty relaxed place and I spend a lot of time on the internet. Today, this is alreayd about my 5th or 6th time checking out different boards! But, it's so much fun to connect with people! However, I don't have cable modem at home, so luckily, I only use my valuable work time to check out the site.

[SilverBlueAngel]

I just found this site today. It's great reading about Greeks everywhere. At my small college there are only 5 frats and 2 sorors. I don't feel so isolated now!

You know you are addicted when..... you make greekchat your homepage. Yes its true, as of yesterday i said "forget yahoo! im going to GC". I didnt ever really use yahoo on a daily basis- but i DO check greekchat everyday- or atleast i try. Its so much more convenient to open up the internet with this so i can get to it faster
