Ninja bump.
I never double guessed you, Miku! Thank you for remembering me, it's nice to know our time talking and playing mmos together will be remembered
One of my personas was a girl once... I didn't battle any mental issues or depression though, I was just too 'shy' to come clean. Then relationships started to form with people I considered close friends, which I've now long since lost connections with due to abandoning that persona. I, too, swore to never let anything like that happen again so I've experienced a little of what you have here. It sucks having friends tied to a person that isn't you, friends that you cannot show your real self to, and friends that will fade away with that persona.
You made a big step with this confession and I'm proud of you. I wasn't able to do the same, and instead, lost a couple of good friends that I think about every now and then. I know it isn't easy.
Either way, it doesn't matter to me who you really are. You are Miku and we had some good times. I'll always remember playing Luna Online with you, Cade, and Shippo
Actually, the reason why I just checked out this site is because I was wondering what you were up to these days! Glad you lot are still around and checking this place out. I was worried I'd never find you guys again.
Edit: One last thing. Pay no mind to the spoiled "why didn't you disappear" comments earlier in the thread. I'm happy to hear from you again Miku and even more happy that you did NOT disappear!
