Forums » Smalltalk » Sad Roleplay Times

This is mostly a lighthearted post, as I'm not truly caught up/that upset about it, I just think it's a bit sad. I was really excited for a roleplay with someone, we talked and planned out a lot - and the day after I sent the start, their entire account was nuked - closed completely, gone for good, etc, etc. I found it sort of funny, joking with my friends that the start was too powerful.

Still, in a sort of wistful way, I think about what good have been - I think we could have written something great. One day...

Anyway, for the purpose of conversation: Anyone else had sad moments like that? Like, you're not even upset or frustrated, you're just like, 'aw, man... but the vibes!'

Oh my god yes. It was right when I'd joined, too, maybe a month after. User makes a LFRP thread and it is tailormade for me. All that and a bag of chips. I write them immediately. We go back and forth for a bit and get wildly hype. I go to bed, and the next day, they've deleted. I was a little sad, but it happens.

I get a message in my inbox two days later from that same person on a new account, explaining that they got drunk and felt awkward and nuked everything in a panic but am I still interested? Yes I am, I say, I am actually beyond stoked that they came back, hurray!

And then they deleted again.

Now. People can feel free to judge my intelligence and optimism however they like.

But if you're out there, Possibly French Law Student Dark Fantasy Enthusiast... Your idea was outstanding and I still think about it. hmu

I think many of us, if not all, had that kind of moment. A moment where you feel like emptied, where you simply miss the continuity that occurred while building a relation and that one just poofs.
Yes I have at least one. Very nice plot building, a complete different approach of role-playing, emotional deep going … no word, no message anymore since over six months. Yes I miss that one, yes I would simply love to continue, and yet… that one brought me so much for that short period, it simply feels satisfying, even if it’s far, very far from finished.
No I’m not upset, still that RP stays in my mind.
It’s a weird feeling, huh?
