i sincerely hope this gets posted, this is not flame but real concern for some people here. but if anyone is having actual crisis or is getting genuinely upset because a chat got ghosted, this is potentially a hobby you should shelve until you are prepared for that kind of thing?
for reference, i have been rping since i was 8 years old, i am nearly 30. in all of those years, i've kept maybe 4-5 rp partners around as friends, and the vast swathes of the others are just gone. we didn't write well together, we didn't have the same ideas for progression, maybe we just lost interest in what brought us together in the first place - and yeah, sometimes it was something *i* was invested in as well, and it hurts.
but at the end of the day, it's a hobby. for you, for the person you're rping with, and for most potential partners as well. you owe a stranger on cherp the same amount as you owe a stranger in real life - just because they jumped in and joined your street performance for a moment doesn't mean they're your creative counterpart. you don't even know them. learning to be OK with temporary might just be incredibly healing for you.
I read this ask a few times since we got it and I really thought about it and you’re right. You’re absolutely right. Please have a wonderful new year.
P.s. WHAT WERE YOU ROLEPLAYING AT 8?????

cis people will say “I found out I’m having a baby girl at my anatomy scan and I’m experiencing gender disappointment” but be mad when you say “who knows? maybe you’ll end up with a son anyway”
