[Edited Because I Fracking Can]

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).

Thank you!

It's not so much awkward as it is... I don't know, weird? He told me he loved me. I'm not entirely sure what love is, but even though we've been close for years, we've only been together for a month and that seems too soon for whatever love is.

I'm not used to caring. And I don't like it. Not one bit.
...is it odd that I feel like I'm having a conversation with myself from ~one year ago?

My first serious relationship was with a good friend. The first day we started officially dating, he told me... that. He loved me. Being the person I am, I held in my spaz until I got back home, but then I freaked.

Many things I do not like. Caring being one of them. I found that I didn't love him back, but I cared about him enough that I didn't want to hurt him.

Give it time, but if you still aren't sure, I recommend breaking it off before you're in too deep. I know it sounds harsh but... Personal experience...
That was my innitial thought, being that I've been in too deep on the other side before, and I don't want to treat anyone the way I was treated.

But being the 90s television fan I am, I thought of an episode in Gilmore Girls in which Loralai has a schedule. And her reserved-ness keeps her from having meaningful relationships with anyone. I don't want to be like that.
I've only ever watched a few episodes of Gilmore Girls...

I don't know what to tell you. My relationship was a hellish nightmare, so it's hard to not let that influence my advice.
I can't handle this.

You're upset again, like you are all the time.
You're draining me so much.

Even giving you sympathy feels like a lie.

I...barely care anymore, and that shocks and saddens me.
*offers tea*
I'm going to meet my best internet friend in real life soon but I'm nervous.

Anyone have any stories about meeting somebody and not being kidnapped, raped, or murdered?
I met Lamp over summer and I was not kidnapped, raped, nor murdered.
(And neither was she. I thought I'd make that clear.)

That said, stalk them a little and cross-check the information you do have. It's always a good idea.
And nothing bad happened at all?
Ehh... it was a little awkward (expect yours to be, too. First time meeting this person outside of the internet, it's typical, I'd assume), and I was on vacation with family and my parents didn't leave me alone like I'd hoped.
And my little brother developed a short-lived crush on her.

But in terms of disastrous things happening? No, it was fine. We were both who we claimed to be, it was in public, nothing went wrong in a way that would endanger us.

Just make sure you know that this person is who they say they are, and you'll be fine.
I think they're who they claim to be. But I'm scared...
o.o Did he?


*nods*
'Twas fun, just, obviously, meet in a public place with lots of witnesses, and whatnot. And get pictures to show all your mutual internet friends.
