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).
*tries to say this without sounding self-defeating* *doesn't mean it to be that way*
But I'd be flattered to be compared to any of you. So how does that work in reverse....? You know, I needn't ask. I think I'm going to get into another conversation with myself sometime. It's kind of fun.
Nathan, you're so funny, because.... well, you're like the most well-known and well-loved person here, and anyone is beyond flattered to even be associated with you. Yet you feel the opposite.

You are all amazing, and we would all be flattered to be compared to any of you. Or maybe that's just me, but still. *luffles you all*
Nathan, you're incredibly intelligent.
Flying, you're very kind and caring and smart on top of it.
I luffles you too. Heh, at first I read that switched, so you were calling me "on top of it," and... I was like "what the hell? Which Fishy is she talking about?"

*hugs* How did I not see this sooner?
We won't. Or I won't.
You won't. You'll find some way to be strong or something to distract you at least sometimes.
You might. But crying can be good.
So tell her. She, at the very least, deserves to know.
Be there for her so she doesn't.
Cancer is bad. ...first off, you need to make sure she'll want treatment. I wouldn't and my friends agree with me. Chemo is hell.
*points up*
Find friends who will love and protect you either way.
Ignore it. You are fabulous no matter what.
Why would they do that? *wants to punch them*
They will. Parents will always love their kids.
Be their for her before she's gone.
You won't.
So am I.
