CB Confessions, Again
CB Confessions, Again
I think a lot of new people have joined ever since I posted my first thread in August of 2018. So here! In case you guys need to confess anything, here's some info~
This is a thread to post confessions (under an alias or not) about things that you wouldn't want people to associate you with. At least, that's how I think of it. And please, for the sake of privacy, unless someone specifically gives you permission, please do not attempt to guess anyone.
Anyway, it was good for me to get stuff off my chest, and hopefully it will be good for you too.

Was it just too long, then? Or was there content that was not suitable for the CB? I would like to not make the same mistake twice, so if there was anything wrong with what I submitted, I want to know.
I can't remember specifically at this point. Since you noticed part of the comment was deleted, you can probably remember what it was and figure out why. Chatterbox is not an open forum for all personal circumstances and topics.

Hey, so I know I'm a little late to the party here, but if you're still checking this, maybe I can help a little. I have a couple friends who identify as genderqueer and use they/them pronouns – genderqueer is a pretty broad term that just means you don't identify within the traditional gender binary, whatever that means for you (e.g. you don't always feel only male or female, or you never do, or you consistently feel somewhere on the spectrum of gender that isn't one of the traditional binary genders, or your gender fluctuates along the spectrum, or any number of definitions).
I get that it's different with family, but I've been friends with both of these people since before they openly identified as genderqueer and used they/them pronouns, and we've never had an awkward conversation about it. The only time gender has come up has been when they started the conversation, not the other way around. So if it's any comfort, not everyone is going to ask you invasive questions or have the dreaded talk. It might be confusing for your family (and yeah, it totally stinks feeling like a core part of your identity is confusing for your family) but if you don't want to talk about it endlessly, just tell them that and I bet they'll understand.
Sorry for a long, rambly answer, I'm just trying to help the best I can. We're all here to support you in any way we can.

I thought that the CB confessions thread was more of a thread to share confessions about things relating to the CB...but I guess it's a different thing now. This works, though! Anyways I think y'all need a big hug *hugs* And the CB is here for you <3

Hello! I hate to make this awkward, but this thread is meant for CB-related confessions. Here's the link if you don't understand what I mean:

Oops, that's what I first thought, but then I saw what everyone else was posting. Maybe now it can be just a bit of both?

Oh! I thought that this was the case at first, but then, reading some of the aother comments, I just decided to post my confession. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I'm going to make a non-CB confessions thread!!!!

I'm sure a lot of people have done this... I've considered posting with an alternative identity for a while to see if people would like me better/take me more seriously. I never have though, I've just considered it. My social consciousness is full of existential pity-parties that are no longer valid, so... yeah.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. And hey, guess what? No one sees you as snobbish. It's just your brain freaking out because you're a teen/tween. Everyone feels this at one point or another. And now that you've admitted it, we all probably won't notice anymore. I know there is no logic in this entire post, but it's true.
(January 24, 2020 - 5:03 pm)
Oh, I've TOTALLY thought about going under another name. I invented a whole persona for it, even. Username and habits and AEs and likes and appearance. It was weird.
Hey, we wouldn't think of you as snobbish! We think everyone is cool around here. I always think of it as my "safe place" of sorts, because everyone is so nice and you can rant and not worry about being judged and everyone is accepting of other people. I love it here. :)

Sometimes I wish there was more drama on the CB because then it would be more interesting to me, but then I remember how drama tears people apart and remind myself I don't actually want that to happen.
(January 27, 2020 - 10:39 pm)
Same! Sometimes it's just not so exciting around here, but it feels really wrong to wish for, y'know? I think we need more SIs...
(January 30, 2020 - 12:03 pm)
Hehe.
What?
Oh, y'know.
Ninnies.
They care.
I'm semicrazy and have a girlfriend in my head. Sometimes it's a boyfriend, depending on what mood it's in.
Not just semicrazy.
VERY VERY crazy.
I suppose.
