Being a niche tumblr famous teen really is an odd experience, people bought me stuff of my Amazon wishlist, the unending anon hate followed by the infinite anon love and let’s not forget about the tinychats which was a prehistoric form of streaming.
Jk I never owned any of these very era defining pieces.

hi I hope this isn't weird but remember you saying that you lost/left behind all your friends once and then you found a new circle after a while.
right now I'm in the process of leaving my friend group bc it's really not good company for me physically and spiritually and I truly need to heal for a few monts
and I wanted to ask how you dealt with loneliness (also I'm a very physical touch kinda person) and when or how you felt ready to commit to new people. also I feel like if I leave really my whole friend group behind I don't have a network to meet new people? I'm not sure yet, I just feel it's right to leave but I'm afraid of then staying alone since I won't have friends to go places and meet people
would love to know your experience or some advice
all the best!!!
I never reply to messages these days but it’s so insane that you remembered me talking about this years ago on my blog that I just have to take the time to answer…
First of all I believe it’s important to ask yourself why you wanna leave that circle. Are they hindering your growth, impacting you badly, what is it that makes you feel like you wanna leave the situation behind.
Secondly I repeatedly made the mistake of leaving and leaving without a trace and no explanation…I feel like that was very immature. If the people meant something to you I’d have a talk about it. You got to take their perspective into consideration it might trigger their abandonment issues and leave them wondering what they could have done differently or if they hurt you.
And yes it does get lonely, I‘m quite a loner and I enjoy being on my own a lot yet I spiraled quite a bit after cutting off basically everyone. I wouldn’t do that again but I’m in a very different position now with very different people, where I truly feel as if our paths are meant to be connected. If you’re environment is toxic and there’s nothing you can do about it other than going no contact then do so.
Back then I was about to graduate from school and start Uni, so I had plenty of opportunities to reinvent myself and meet new people but even if that’s not the case you can always pick up a hobby to new meet people.
I think the most important thing is to ask yourself why you wanna leave that chapter of your life behind and what you want instead, then seek it out actively.
