we can cuddle and have deep convos about our trauma

Rundown: 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 post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
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.
Do not solicit money, Dreamwidth points, or other currency unless you are offering a good or service in return.

i don't think it's as much as a red flag as people are indicating, i think it's p common to have at least "a few" crushes on people who are of your gender of interest in your social sphere over presumably many yrs since we're all old

as long as you're polite and not pushy/PA if it doesn't seem like they're into you it's fine. i would say once you're sure it's not just a passing infatuation slash if you sense they might be also interested it's not weird or creepy to shoot your shot then go from there

sa

just saying bc tbh a lot of the horror stories that have kind of stigmatized dating rp partners (a) also exist in the irl queer dating scene ime and (b) hinge on someone being weird/creepy/pushy which has less to do w the hobby and more to do with being normal lol. i know people who have married their rp partners like sometimes it does work out

honestly the few times in this hobby when someone confessed to me they immediately said "i know you don't feel the same i just wanted to let you know," followed by them not talking to me anymkre after one of which was literally someone i barely knew and i was like

hey wait don't just say that and run off, we can at least try to get to know each other and see if we can be friends

and they fucked off entirely and didn't even respond

felt bad, man

yeah that's shitty lol and speaks to emotional immaturity, which tbf i think is a slightly more common thing in this hobby (but not universal). whether irl or online i think any instance of shooting your shot you have to check in w yourself re: can i be cool if the answer is no/am i prepared to deal if THEY think it's awkward and fade from the friendship. like i'm not going to pretend it's NOT a little embarrassing or uncomfortable to get rejected but you need to have the emotional resilience to deal with that
