I finally 'let go'

That one friend....a special friend who turned out not to be who i believed they were.
Today, almost 7 years since that friendship began here on SW i was finally ready and had the courage to delete the all messages and conversations between us.
No more sadness or anger.....just acceptence.

FAD/LIL...... If you read this under a different identity here.... i dunno if ANYTHING you told me was true, if any of it was actually yr real life......but I loved what the friendship gave me at that time and I thank you for the giggles and support you gave me along the way.
No hard feelings.

Done. ❤️

I still sign on here for at least a moment every single day my account is active just hoping I’ll see a message from someone I knew seven years ago. You talked with her back then. I don’t think I’ll ever let go of mine. So I’m happy you could let go of yours.

@Reject i remember Sweetie. I really do.
I sorry you still feel 'stuck'.
You know how I felt about my friend back then, and I knew about yours.
I dont know if you read my morecrecent posts, but 2 years ago i found my friend was using photos from an instagram account with a similar name. That person was gracious enough to talk with me and i was fully satisfied hed no idea who i was meaning my friend ( and anotger mutual friend) was using pics taken from this insta account. So....i confronted tgem both and i was instantly blocked on their email addys.....and they putbtheir acvounts here on hiatus. Never heard from either of them since. Yet i clung to hope id get an explaination......5 years of friendship couldnt have all been lies...right?? Who knows. Im over it now.

You knew what you had was with a real person. So i totally get that you still hope that message will arrive.
Hugs hunni. Xx

@RubySoo I think the connection you had with your friend was genuine even if it was made behind that facade. People often need very specific circumstances before they can open up and be who they truly are. Unfortunately that can often mean hiding something that’s holding them back. That must have been difficult to go through, but any progress you’ve made is admirable. 🤗
