🍋LDP Ice-breaker Tea-time with kindLemonade🍋

@kindLemonade I would reach out to peer support or chat support, if I felt it was needed.

@kindLemonade I am both.

I tag @KindSoul10 to answer @kindLemonade questions

@kindLemonade Hello hello! *Sips that awesome tea*

Time to break some ice!

1] I'd most definitely bring chips! Chips are looovveee

2] Both!

Bonus question : I think I'd do the hard part, which according to me is, say what I mean! Values and morals are the most important part of a conversation or relationship to me! I don't compromise with those usually teehee

Aaannnddd you're awesome kind!

1. Fresh water

2. Coffee + milk and no sugar

In a hard conversation:

Generally: Stop. Take a step back. Observe. Proceed mindfully

Additionally on 7Cups: Use CS service if still want to continue with the conversation regardless the situation. Use PS service afterwards if needed.

Nice check-n post Lemo 💜 Would love to know your answers for the questions 😊

@kindLemonade

First, WOW, this is such a cool post! Now my answers (drum rolls)

1) I HAVE NO IDEA. I am a foodie oh my god, this is a disaster for a foodie like me!

2) I am more of a coffee person, but I wanna try out tea too, so who knows, maybe I become both of them in the future?

3) I would think of it as a challenge, and try to help them as best as I can!

I don't know if I can choose you, Lem, if I could, then @kindLemonade. If not, then, THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE.

@ouiCherie here is my answers

1. I would bring lemon of course hahaaaaaaa!

2. I'm also more of a coffee person although I love drinking tea too. I enjoy my coffee with no sugar, either blak coffee or with plain milk, both are tasty.

Bonus question: In a tough conversation, If I can still be patient with clear thinking, I will try to empathize with the other's opinions and convey what I have in mind. However, If I feel like I have reached my limit and need a time-out, I would ask for a short break and ask to reschedule for another chat in the future. In this scenerio, I will try to be as specific as I can about the arranged time/date for a chat.

@kindLemonade

Hi Lem! Thank you for the great forum post and the tag!

1. I would have to bring bottled water. On a deserted island, even though there is a water source, I would have to always boil the the water before drinking if the water isn't what is considered to be from a fresh water source. That sure would make life easier to have bottled water! No looking for wood, no looking for ways to create fire, no looking to find an appropriate vessel to boil the water in.

2.I kind of think I'm both. I like coffee in the a.m. but tea can be nice all through out the day.

Bonus question: Wasn't sure if this was to be a real life scenario or here for our chats on 7 cups. Either way, answer for me would be the same. I don't take the path of least resistance that would be, of course, changing the subject. I would not be included in the 90% and for me that is never going to be an option. The only time I see changing the subect, as an option, is when I am here on 7 cups in a chat and a member is being inappropriate. Certain steps I must go through and certain efforts I must make to try and get the chat back onto something more healthy and something that is allowed on the site. And even if it starts off as something inappropriate, there are ways to ask questions, kind of stay on the orginal topic a bit and drill down deep and ask questions related to the original inappropriate question that they asked. Are you feeling lonely? Do you feel isolated? Are you finding it difficult to meet people of the opposite or same sex, whatever that preference may be and why, etc. Just one example.

Aawww Lemonade, thanks for the tag, I love theae ice breakers, such a refreshment! Haha 1. I would choose to have a smoothie called "Helou". In Arabic, helou stands for "sweet" and that smoothie is heaven: it contains strawberries, berries and banana. Definitely my favourite one. 🤭 2. I am such a coffee person! Coffee, coffee, moreee coffee please always hahah 3. Hard conversations are challenging, here and in rl. I guess I would not ignore them, I would try my best to participate and engage as much as I can, of course, depends on the topic (if it's something sensitive or triggering I would maybe be limited with responses but that does not mean I would leave a person hanging) Aaaaaand now waiting for some extra lemonadeeeeee milkshake hehe Tagging @magicalSarah, @communitymodCharlie @Starmedia @lueurspace @lou73 ❤️

@kindLemonade

Hey hey there Lem, thanks so much for the tag! It seems ive been summoned to break some ice 💛

No worries, ive got my ice pick on hand haha.

Q.1 Honestly I would probably choose seasoned French fries, because yes. Who doesn't want unlimited spicy potatoes?

Q.2 Ahaha well, ask anyone I know and they'll probably tell you I spend wayyyy too much money on coffee {theyre not wrong}, but I do loveee tea as well {especially lemon!}.

Bonus for slushiesssss!

I would contact PS/CS, depending on which one is more appropriate.

Amazing post by the way, keep it up! Tagging the wonderful @ifyouknowtocountcountwithme
