Other Do you miss rp friends?

[Paradox9]

I've been through 3 or so rp communities and I never really had long term rp partners. It's usually players I dm/gm for.

The couple I could count on one hand? Sure, It's not like I can't just message them or whatever, so that's cool. More that there just isn't a compatibility in what we want to rp anymore.

I really miss a lot of old rp partners, i started more than 10 years ago when i was a kid, on this old warrior cats website that isnt open anymore. It was before my username was standardized on everything. And it was different everywhere. I think my old username was Cavestar or Cavescar on it or something along those lines.

then i had a different username for over 15 years that i recently changed due to having meanings associated with it i didnt realize. I just now realised thg because of my username change that my old rp partners wont know who i am anymore so they will never find me and thats sad

Yes, my old rp friend who deleted her Q account because her family found it. (she was so fcking funny and fun to rp with)

Yeahhhhh it happens, but if the roleplay doesn't hold up as well as it should, it's a low chance that the friendship will last as long outside of that :/

Of course I do!
I’ve had so many role plays I’ve adored with great close friends, and even old friends as well.

They’re fun to remember, and of course I miss the people, since quite a bit of them have drifted apart from me. But yeah, I still think about the old role plays sometimes, but it just inspires me for the role plays now

Dr. Mario ... I'm sorry I ghosted you fifteen years ago

A few.

I will admit, I miss roleplaying with my best friend sometimes. We aren't kids with endless free time anymore, but it's still a fun hobby for me, while she's moved on. Since we're still close, the urge to ask her to create a new story together comes up from time to time, but I ultimately decide not to. It was always more fun for me than for her, because she doesn't enjoy writing half as much as I do, so it would feel selfish.

I do believe that when you have done this long enough, you are bound to miss some of the people who dissolve into time. I certainly miss a few of the people I came up with, but I did my best to maintain a relationship with those I truly cared about. So I don’t miss anyone in-particular, but I do miss some of the writers who used to make this special for me as writers (not necessarily as people, or we would still be talking to this day, lol).

Sometimes, yeah. I always wonder about the people I talked to when I was first starting out online and I hope they're doing okay.

Do you ever miss any of your rp friends that you lose contact with over the years? I miss the people that I rped with 14 years ago

Yes. I had a roleplay partner on Quotev who was amazing. Their name was (idk if they still go by it.) Grimm, they were so sweet and they got me into descriptive roleplay. They were always my go to because they made writing so much fun, and they encouraged me heavily. I truly believe they made me become a better writer. If you're seeing this somehow, Grimm—I miss you. I'd like to be friends again, I know we sort of drifted apart. Not for anything bad I don't think, it just happens. Like having friends in high school, point is you're cool and you inspire me.

All the time! Sometimes I think of the people I RPed with for the first time, back when I was in fourth grade on AnimalJam, and I've managed to get the Instagram of one of them so I know they're alive at least, but two of my oldest friends from back then I could never get in contact with outside of AJ.

Even now, one of my current RP partners-turned-friends is in the habit of going AWOL with no warning, sometimes for months on end, and reappearing later, and right now I'm in another phase of missing her every day and hoping that she's alright. I don't normally sit and wait anxiously for people like this, but she's one of my close friends, so every time she disappears I end up feeling depressed over it, lol.

I guess since writing is the only way I've learned how to connect with people (I didn't have many friends growing up, still don't have any irl friends) I'm the type to get attached to characters and get deeply affected by stories. I really like being able to meet new people and find those I connect with through OCs and stories and fandoms (,:

 

[hellfyre]

Honestly, yes. In my 10+ years of rping I've developed close friendships with lots of people I wrote with... and eventually most faded as they lost interest in the roleplays. It sucks because I would rather have them as friends and not have the roleplay than this.
