we met during a really bad time in my life which isn't an excuse but i keep replaying what happened thinking of what i could have done differently. i still care about you. i'm sorry i mistreated you and relied on you too much. i wish i could give you the apology you deserve but all i can do is give you space. i hope you'll be happier.

fwiw anon, by spiraling instead of listening they are taking your pain and making it about them, which is super manipulative behavior whether they're intending to do it or not. it sounds like they need to grow up and/or get help, and I don't blame you for your increasing frustration. a relationship, even a friendship, where you can't establish boundaries or express discomfort is imbalanced. that's not "fine".

some people stop going to the playground to climb the monkeybars because they find other things they enjoy more. other people just find bigger monkeybars. that's basically what going to the gym or getting into rockclimbing is, really.

rp is just collaborative writing. you can't put an age limit on it, and if anything dreamwidth has aged with its community... it's not like we've been replaced by a younger crowd. they have their own sites and communities, we have ours.

yeah. op may have their shit together in the standard sense but at least i'm not left in bitter yearning for my abandoned longtime hobbies, i guess.

i wish you were the person who mistreated my friend and relied on them too much etc. etc. so i could tell you off because i'm still mad about it, but we're just impotent anons. i hope we both have a more cheerful day.

you said you hoped i'd tell you if i had a problem. i do and i'm not sure how to bring it up. you're clearly having fun and i don't want to tell you how to spend the time you have for this hobby but it feels like you don't consider me at all at this point in or out of rp and that hurts.

please tell them anon. take a day if you need to think about what to say but speaking from someone who's been on both sides you should tell them.

I knew exactly which L player this was before having to confirm which L was at deer. Last I recall her blasting this kink around without content warnings, she said that L had chemically castrated himself because hormones made it too hard to focus during puberty or smth. Guess that wasn't edgy enough for her.

i wish i was too if it would help and i definitely feel like i deserve being told off. i don't know if i'm that person but i am sorry and as someone who regrets it i hope my apology can at least bring you some sense of acknowledgement for how your friend was wronged.

thanks anon, i hope we both have a more cheerful day too.

i knew someone like this too, and i'm pretty sure it's partially because it's harder to figure out someone's an asshole when we're working with 15 different names and you need to figure out if vee/kalel/tapioca/tappykun/cow/mocha/yuri/etc are all the same person or not.

sad to say how much i empathize with this. people are supposed to have fun and that's the point of even being here but that sudden ghosting hurts even if you are happy for them for doing something they enjoy.

because it used to be super common for people to just do an "img src" vs a link. it also meant the pages would take forever to load especially if people were doing fancy HTML on top of the images. it's not just because of the potential nsfw images.

it's been 7 or 8 years now, but I'm still sorry about what I did. it was none of my business to get involved between you and my other friend, causing that whole mess about apping into that game. I was wrong. I wish I could apologize to you simply because I owe you one. I don't expect forgiveness. I'm just sorry and I hope you're doing well and thriving no matter where you are right now.

lol what

m80 if you can read an ‘i hate that i don’t have time to do this anymore’ post and your only take away is ‘i’m successful and you’re a fat smelly NEET,’ i think you’re the one who has issues to work out
