You sound fat

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

it truly is the key. i tried to have a relationship with an rper a while back, but mine didn't work out. i thought we would be fine because we didn't even rp with each other much! we didn't have much friend overlap, we only shared a couple fandoms, and we rarely were in the same game together.

problem was... most of our conversations were still about rp. i could tell you years worth of rp drama i heard from her, but i couldn't tell you much else about her life or interests. part of that was absolutely my fault too because i never tried THAT hard to steer her away from the topic of rp, even if i was tired of hearing about it. but to be fair she never asked me about myself either, so. yeah. it kind of felt like, why bother. it was just bad.

if you find someone interesting, don't avoid them just because they rp. it can work out! but make sure they have something they care about besides just rp and fandom, and make sure you BOTH show interest in each others' lives.
