i might leave.

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

i might leave.

i might leave.

ive talked about this in other places

nobody cares about my posts

i posted the confessions thread anonymously. that was me. and it became popular

but none of my other posts have

when i first found this place it was 2019. i was unpopular and i was shy because id never been on a forum

now i have been to many, and im older now, and ive been here longer, so i thought i could be popular

it doesnt work that way

i feel really left out sometimes

even when im only posting comments they go unnoticed

but that confessions thread, that i posted anonymously

i tried not to be me in that post so nobody knew who i was

im trying not to be me in this post so nobody knows who i am

i dont want to stay here if the only way people like me is if im not me.

i have other places online and irl that i can be who i want to be and i dont have to hide.

this might be goodbye.

im not sure yet.

if someone stops making posts here it's likely me

you probably won't notice them stop making posts though

you probably dont know me

its ok

its not anyones fault

no cber is responsible

this is just the way it is

ill probably just stay here though

trying and failing until i cant anymore 

who knows how long that will be

maybe ill make a new identity and be less boring 

i love you guys

im sorry

There's nothing to be sorry for on your part.

Just on ours.

While it seems like it might be a little late for me to get you to stay, I want you to know I'll keep your post in mind. No comment or thread shall go unnoticed! This won't happen again, no one should feel left out.

Don't be sorry. If this is anyone's fault, it's ours. And I'm pretty sure if you stop posting, I'll notice. (though possibly not because I'm not on here a ton anymore)

Just know that I love you too, whoever you are <3 <3

I'm so sorry you feel like this, I know from experience it sucks :( if people aren't noticing your posts I'd say it isn't inherently your fault, maybe if you're putting out ideas it's just something the community isn't interested in at the time, but please don't think it's because you're not cared about! And the idea of popularity on the CB has always been messed up, generally it's only the people who post a lotttt who are considered "popular" and it's always been a point of grief for a lot of people. 

I guess just, I understand what you're going through, please never pretend to be someone else to please others, and if you feel leaving is the best idea then that's totally up to you but don't leave thinking we don't care about you! If you're on any of the Nano classrooms and want to PM me about this my username is thehollyandtheleafy and it doesn't matter to me who you are, I just want to make sure you're feeling okay and not alone <33

x. I understand you. 

This is exactly how I felt.

This is one of the reasons I want to leave.

This is why I'm only popping in shortly. 

Just make sure you're comfortable. 

*hugs* I understand.

(On another note, your post was beautiful! This was so, so poetic!)

Oh gosh, I'm so sorry we made someone feel like this! As Leafy said, popularity is pretty messed up, but I don't know if we can change it. To be honest I wish I knew who you are so I could properly say goodbye, but until next time, if there is one.

<3

Ohhh I am so sorry that you feel this way. Just know that you are awesome, and even if your posts don’t get replies, you still contribute to the CB. If you don’t mind telling me your CB name I could look for your posts/comments and see if they interest me! Also if you are on NaNo feel free to contact me! You are awesome and amazing, and don’t forget it!
