very true! if you spend your life trying to be someone your not, just because you want to be liked, you'll find yourself very lonely eventually ;) even when surounded by lots of people
but i think this discussion is a bit deep for an ant forum lol
damond....
i know theres already someone harder! i dont tell 'people'/just the forum to give my reason why i dont tell loads of people i collect/intrested in ants. i will let more people know about one of my hoby's(ants) but like u say its better when your older to tell more people that is wot i will do anyway! its only one thing (ants) i dont tell them about this 1 thing because as i said before i dont wanna be known as some sort of geek, do
i!
i appricate your help/concern, but u have to put your self in my shoes. i wanna try and get girls not creep them out by saying i keep ants, that would really freak them out etc!..............by the way i have anouth of my mom,dad,grandparents and my teachers in the skool lecturing me without u doing it aswell :x
ill take that on board damon, just please dont lecture me it proper p*sses me off :!:
Hello to all :)
I have kept ants since i was 13 , My first colony was lasius niger , caught a queen after the mating flight and keept her in a small test tube in my draw , she managed to raise her first workers just before my mom found her and told me to put them outside . Always been interested in ants , and think there are way amazing . Im always happy to tell people about my hobby and its always an interesting subject. I always find that when people find out i keep them, they ask so many questions and show a big interest .
Be proud about ants there worth being proud about .
Greetings
Adam :D
thanks for the feedback adam, its always nice to get back on topic :grin:

Antdude - nobody is having a go or lecturing. This is a friendly forum.
btw. I guessed you'd want to impress girls. We all did, and I imagine that most of us still do. There are lots of clues in the poem. Hope it helps.
not really lol. anyway im not a poem sort of guy lol i dont like reading them, ok at writeing them but thats basicaly it lol! ill check out again later to go though see if it helps but i doubt it :|
just fault ill say this,when i first joined dis forum i fault it would be full of geeks and boths! but most of u seem not to be nerdy and that(even though theres always a few! lol) anyway a lot of people seem to be well alrite on ere, your one of dem damond i guess your not so bad after all..... amongst others that seem to be alrite aswell:D
preconceptions have lead to many problems in this world
ok ill bare that in mind miszt :!:
My little contribution to this topic: For as long as I can remember I was fascinated with ants. I´ve never destroied an anthill like lots of my friends. I wanted to keep them but I never knew how and if it is possible at all. I wanted to study biology but I changed my mind as I never liked chemestry. Anyway few years ago I found a new friend over the internet who was also intrested in ants and he gave me my first colony of L. niger. I was just crazy about them. Checking them all the time, observing what they do and how they forage. I was addicted right away. Now I have 6 colonies and hopefully will have some more next year.
@ant dude
I guess I understand you in a way. You are in that age when self-oppinion is based on oppinion of others. I guess we were all in your shooes once just that we are over that now. You talk about rep like you are the king of the world and all eyes are on you lol. Anyway, with years it doesn´t get any easier. People will tell you:"Aren´t you a bit grown up to be playing with this things?" Thanks God I can say I´m in age where I give a rats ass about what other say. :)
