Welcome to the Secret Confessions thread. Beyond the pure anonymity of the internet, there lies a certain level of understanding behind all the accounts here on FF. The SC account carries burden of allowing the user to give a candid, private confession with (hopefully) understanding feedback. The SC thread is for other posters to give kind and/or helpful advice, words of empathy, or a secret of their own (under the SC name or not).
This account is a group account, and EVERYONE needs to treat it respectfully. By posting under the Secret Confessor, you are pledging to refrain from hate mail, "finger-pointing", insulting and being a jerkface. By posting in the SC thread, you are pledging to keep the comments respectful. This has not yet been a problem, but it's nice to have written down "just in case".
If you would like to use the SC account for ANY reason beside posting in this thread, please PM me- even if it's under the SC name (this is not to exert authority, but to maintain order over a very accessible account).
I can't lie to you guys well. >.> It's like, I feel guilty lying, so I purposely make it very obviously fake. I dunno. But this time, I was serious, I wasn't lying. >.>
I feel the same way. Only one of my friends knows about my online life, and whenever she brings it up around other people, I die a little inside. The internet is my freaking home, and like you, my best friends are here. Jasper Lumin, for example. I love that guy so much, and he's pretty much my best friend right now.
I don't know...it's just so much easier to have friends online. Sure, I guess you could say I'm a pretty girl, but I'm also a pretty anti-social girl. Talking to people on the internet has actually helped me become more social in RL. So.....yeah. I know what you mean all too well.
I'm slutty, to make up for my own insecurities. I'll flirt with geekier cute guys simply because I like the rush I get when I petrify them. I can count the "crushes" I've had over the years on one hand. My first grade boyfriend (how dreamy), "Zach"- who was really nothing more than a flirty friend, and Michael- who maybe I never really liked in the first place. I've never been in love with anyone, my girlfriends are such wonderful people. I'm filled with love for everyone except myself.
I'm cruel. Not even in a funny way. A boy asked me to homecoming and I told him that I would rather poke my eyes out with knives. This person is a "friend" of mine with low-self esteem and hasn't ever really done anything bad to me besides be a little clingy. Most people are either harsh for the attention, or harsh because they're unaware of how they come off. I'm just mean because it's easier than pretending to give a damn.
I pretend to be someone that I can't even stand, because without the persona I feel like no one will see me- or worse, they'll see right through me. My best friends know me, but I still can't stand someone who supposedly knows all of my secrets. And I know that in a few years, our close friendship may very well come to an end. I'm just waiting until I snap.
I treat my best friend like dirt, and now that she's pushed back she's becoming more worthless to me. I feel like a terrible person saying that, but part of me knows that it's true.
>.> I feel odd putting all that down on paper, especially since I haven't really been on here much.
