I Am Leaving

After months of deciding, I think I’m finally going to be deleting this account. Some may say this is overdue.. some may want me to stay, but ultimately, it is my choice.

I started off on EP years ago. At the time I was really really young and depressed. I didn’t have friends in my real life so I guess this was just my way of feeling important. After being on this app called ‘Whisper’ for a while, I wanted to join more social sites on the internet as an attempt to make friends and meet new people. I wanted to fit in for once and be liked for who I was.. tell everything about myself without feeling embarrassed or shy. Of course, looking back on it, that was a dumb idea. Although you can find great people on the internet, you can also find the most terrible. In my case.. I found people way worse than what I’ve dealt with in real life which is why it’s not smart to share so much about yourself on these sites/apps. People can see everything... it’s dangerous! At the time, I didn’t realize this and when EP shut down I searched and searched for a comparable website.. thats when I came across Similar Worlds. I was able to reconnect with old EP friends and also make a lot more. As many of you may know, I am a little, and I was finally able to start expressing that with people of similar interest. I was still depressed and trying to figure out who I was.. and I think that’s why I relied on this site so much.
Now that I’m better, I don’t come on here at all.. and if I do it’s for a night or two when I’m feeling down or bored. then I’m gone again. It may be annoying and it may seem like I don’t want to talk or I’m being rude.. but the truth is, I’m a happier person and I don’t need to be social in order to feel good anymore. This started off as something I did because I loved it, but now it feels like a chore. And I really hope I don’t sound selfish or mean by saying that.

I’ve grown up a lot and this was an amazing journey. I’m so grateful for all of you because you helped me get through the majority of my teenage years. I will always have a special place in my heart for EP and SW, but this isn’t where I belong anymore. If you still wish to chat, I do have kik! (if anyone even uses that anymore, lol!) I would love love love to keep in touch with everyone who has been supporting me and sending me nothing but positivity! my kik is askye21_ ❤️ Thank you all for the amazing experience and I hope those of you that I have close relations with can understand. God Bless you all!

yeah you find a lot of crazy and vile people online i learned that too. as well as a lot of people who end up being manipulators or liars. i think maturity happens is when we stop relying so much on these kinds of sites for attention. people do a lot of crazy things just to fit into what other people want they to be. and its usually the bad they want them to change into. so glad you found yourself.
