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 might be biased but... that's like one of my friends dating my little brother. alskjfderfew
Stop reminding me that 12 year olds are capable of romantic attraction. Stop it. I don't care if I vividly remember my... semi-relationship (not 'semi' because of the age, 'semi' because I was stupid and he was an ass) from when I was 12 but, my brother is 12 and he does NOT like girls. Or guys. No. He's never going to grow up. Never.
Edit: Tally, I forgot that you were that age... ish. I'm sorry. You just seem like you're 15 and when I see "12" I think of my brother, who has less than a quarter of your maturity.
The girl I'm dating is three and a half years younger than I, and it's been going flawlessly for four years so far. The only reason why this works however is that we are both very committed, compensating, slow-going, and very, very careful.
People are always proud of me for being so confident with my appearance. They say it's great that I "don't care what anyone says."
The only reason I'm confident is because I have a father, aunt, uncle and grandma who tell me how pretty they think I am, I have amazing friends who tell me I'm gorgeous, and I have a boyfriend who calls me beautiful or gorgeous several times a day.
I DO care what people say. I'm just lucky enough to have good people in my life. Is that so bad?
