Sorry you're not feeling well, friend. As someone who used to think they're really annoying, I can assure you, from my perspective at least, that you are most definitely not. I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you! I really appreciate that.Sorry you're not feeling well, friend. As someone who used to think they're really annoying, I can assure you, from my perspective at least, that you are most definitely not. I hope you feel better soon.
Honestly I think you should talk to her anyway. I don't get why people have to put such messages in their status as if they only want certain cliques to talk to them. If she doesn't want to talk to you either way, her loss.One of my online friends is super upset because one of her online friends deactivated their account. I want to comfort her, but she put "DNIUC" (Dont Interact Unless Close) in her display name, so I shouldn't send her a message right now. I want to comfort her so badly, but I have to respect her.

Parosmia hurts. I'm supposed to be full and enjoying my time in NYC (and i still am mostly) but I'm hungry and I can't eat. The cream cheese on my bagel triggered it, and the spinach crepe I tried to eat for lunch made me gag so hard that I cried. It's 2:30 here and all I've had fully is some grape juice and a few bites of that crepe. I'm tired and starving. I'm mad at covid and mad at myself for having this ruin my time here.
If that happened on this forum, which it sounds like it did from reading that, you should be able to report it. I think that qualifies as trolling.i’ve had someone say that my wishes are ‘half-hearted’ (which, by the way, they didn’t even say to me directly. they said it on their profile like it’s a blog, and i happened to stumble across it. not a great feeling reading that.)
Anyway, I like how you always wish people a happy birthday. I love receiving birthday messages on or off the forum. I’m sure it means a lot to people!

Had to take one of those school surveys earlier and it was super depressing. It really hit hard when I saw the questions about my sexual orientation/gender identity and my Indigenous background.
I remember having to take some of those in 9th grade and there was no "other" option for gender. I'm nonbinary, so that really hurt me. I get how you feel, it sucks. Some schools have no respect for students' privacy, tbh. They ask such personal life questions that some students don't want to answer.

Thank you for your consolation. I really hate how personal the questions are, and yet my need to answer (a little too) truthfully doesn't quite mix in well. And I am sorry to hear about the lack of an 'other' option for you.
It's like, why does your school need to know this stuff? It's your personal life, they need to respect it. It really irks me when schools do bs like this. And you're welcome. Honestly, you should confront your principal about it. Tell them it makes you uncomfortable. Even if they don't do anything about it, you can still say you tried. Sorry if I'm not the best at giving advice, it's not my best trait.

It's alright, and thank you again. I might do that, but it's almost the end of the period (I'm typing this in school since we were given laptops to do the survey) so I'll wait till Tuesday (since we have a Ped Day). I'll also tell my friends about it.
And it's true, why DO they need to know?? I mean, I get the questions like "Do your teachers do a good job at explaining subjects?" or whatever, but please don't ask about my personal life. They say that they need these answers to make our school a better place (eye roll), but I have seen no changes at school. And what does my personal life have to do with it? Bullying, I presume, but that's a problem that doesn't get solved here.
That's such a lie lmao. Schools never change. It's always the same stuff, with or without the information about people's lives. They really don't care. They just do it to barge into everyone's business. So no, school systems couldn't care less about their students, which is really disheartening. They don't even try to help with bullying at all.
ngl i didnt think my family was gonna separate so hard after me coming out... i mean i was expecting them to make me feel uncomfortable with their questions and judgmental comments and then i was going to have to distance..... butttttt it seems like i dont have to do much lol i guess a quiet separation is better than some huge fight where they tell me its people like me ruining society but i cant help but feel a little bummed that they just seem to want out.... its confusing. im sure ill move on with time though
@xara I'm sorry to hear about your classes. Are these required for your degree? How many times have they not shown up? You could maybe make a case to get a partial refund and keep the class/grade. Don't quote me on that, but if you raise hell, it's possible. It's not right for the school or professors to treat a paying customer in such a way where they are not meeting the service and education they are required to give. I don't know. I certainly wouldn't be learning anything if class was constantly cancelled or never started because the online professor just never bothers to 'show up'.
Don't worry about the tool being bothered by someone going out of their way to wish/give blessings to them. They're not worth your time or anyone's for that matter. It's a small act of kindness that sure it doesn't take that much time, but how many times have you seen someone go out of their way, even for a second, for a stranger to give them kindness and compassion? Exactly. It's people like that user why some people are the way they are. They should learn to shove a sock in their mouth.
What you're doing is very kind of you. And while some goofball gets bent out of shape, know that most will have their day brightened by your small act of kindness.

i’m so sorry, parker. you don’t deserve to deal with that at all. i know this is easier to hear than believe, but if your family can’t accept you and love you for the amazing person you are, then they aren’t your family. your sexuality and/or gender identity does not define you. you are so much more than that, and if your family doesn’t see that... screw them. it’s their loss, they don’t deserve you.it’s completely valid to feel confused, disappointed, hurt, etc. whatever you feel right now is okay and totally understandable. there’s no rush to move on or get over it; let yourself feel your feelings, and take all the time in the world you need to do so. ily, and my pms are always open to you if you need me.
this probably won’t mean much coming from a practical stranger, but i don’t think you’re annoying at all. from the brief interactions we’ve had to your posts that i’ve seen across the forums, you seem very kind, cool and like you have a great personality. it’s totally valid to want to be alone while also wanting to be with people, i feel the same way sometimes, but i think you’re pretty cool. i hope your mood improves soon, hang in there.
thank you! it did unfortunately happen on the forums, but i don’t think it’ll be a problem since i think the user may have actually already been suspended or banned for something lol. their username colour is weird, and i don’t see them around anymore. but i never thought to report it. i probably should have since they honestly posted quite a few other critical posts of other users, their decisions, threads, etc. their post about me definitely hurt my feelings, but i didn’t think that was a good enough reason to report it, and i didn’t want to waste a mod’s time. the post also really confused me since they had literally just joined and we had never interacted before, so i have no idea why my posts bothered her so much. regardless, that incident made me feel like i’ve annoyed other people as well, they’ve just never voiced it anywhere i could see lol.
but thank you (and @xSuperMario64x!) for responding! it means a lot.

Ive had a little Fire Bellied toad since I was ten, and yesterday... i found him dead. I have never cried so hard
I just wanna hold, and see him hoping around. But.. I can't. I feel so broken without him.

It's hard when things like this happen. There's been a lot of bad blood with some of my family. Not for the same reason, but years later I can say that I am better without them. It sucks and it's terrible that it had to go down the way it did for you. I'm really sorry for that. I know we haven't really chatted much on the forums, but you always seemed like a cool member to me.
Sometimes your blood family isn't really your family, if that makes any sense. I've have family and friends that are great people to have in my life while also having family/friends that are just overall terrible people. If you can cut contact with toxic friends the same should apply to family to. Depending on your living situation, I can understand that may be difficult.
Take care of yourself and keep pressing on. You'll have people in your life who will accept you for who are you, whether now or later. It's probably a cheesy 'pep-talk' but it's true. I have a cool niche group of Civil War reenactors I always meet up with and it always feels like coming back to family reunion whenever we band together for another event.
