I'm pretty sure we've talked about this - moderators - if this belongs on a pre-existing thread, please move it with my approval.
This is about other people and how they react to our experiences (or even interest) about things UFO or alien or unexplainable.
I was having dinner with a friend recently. She's 72 now, and I've known her since her children were little. She's heard a lot of my stories and knows me fairly well. But this night I was telling her that I had had what might be confirmation that I and my kids had contact with the Visitors. This came from someone who (perhaps) talks to them. Some of you know who I'm talking about. I had asked them to ask for me if I was in the alien data banks.
The answer came back - yes. By our "cousins" who are less considerate than we are about their contacts with humans.
My first response was, Thank God I'm not crazy!" (Funny how I seldom talk to or about God but he/she still figures in when I'm in an intense moment). Then I thought, "Now this doesn't PROVE anything. Its something someone said. It is subjective proof perhaps, but hardly anything I can take to a scientific person and say, "See...I WAS ABDUCTED."
However I emailed my daughter (who was also mentioned) and her response was, "Should I be frightened?" I realized I hadn't considered what effect my news might have on her. I basically said, "Well..this may have been part of our lives but you haven't had anything unusual happen since you grew up, and I'm pretty sure they're not interested in me now that I'm an old woman." Hmmm...Then I screwed up and said, "But if you have children..."
As if we can protect ourselves or our children if someone who comes from acrss the galaxy wants to check us out.....!
But she doesn't have any children so that went by...
I got that she was irritated at me for bringing this up. But she was curious and we talked a little and all was well enough...
But about my friend who I had dinner with. I told her the same thing - that someone who doesn't know me and has no reason to "make things up" substanciated that we were on a contactee list or data bank. Somehow this bothered her more than my wild stories. Perhaps she had been able to just disregard them before without saying much.
She said carefully, "This isn't something you should tell other people. It could have a huge impact on you if it gets out."
Wow! I'm used to being OUT here. And I've never not told the story if the time seemed right. Suddenly my friend is afraid that "someone else" will find me unbeliveable? crazy? Not suitable for my work???
I felt like the air went out of the room. I literally did not want to admit to her my intense feelings about her statement. I'm still pondering it. And yet I know that professionals - astronauts, public figures, policemen, psychologists and doctors - have lost their positions over their insistent that there is more "Out there" than is talked about.
I personally believe she "can't go there" with me or maybe even let me go there and talk about it. That will have to be factored into our friendship.
Have peopl here here lost friends? Family? positions? Just curious....
