i told some friends (more like shoved the site in their face) when i first made it because i was so excited about it, but i'm assuming it's not something they think to look at if i'm not around, and i'm hesitant to bring it up to people now for the same reasons as you, + it's nice to sort of write into the void with no fear of consequences
Only my best friend knows about it and I ask that she doesn't read any of my writing whenever I send her a link. It's much easier to write/publish to strangers and bear your soul than to those you know. I don't think it's uncommon we don't want our sites percieved by people we know :) for me, it's just way too vulnerable and honest for Kevin from work to be reading it, y'know?
ive told a few friends i have a site, as well as my mom, but i've never showed them. one of my teachers knows as well bc i was working on it when we had some time left in class, but i prefer to keep it my little project where i can experiment and express myself :)
i havenβt shared this site or some of my social media with anyone i know personally. thereβs something comforting about having little spaces that are just mine, quiet corners where i can just be, without the weight of expectations or questions. itβs peaceful and i think i need that sometimes
Hmmmm i have it linked on my instagram and a few friends have mentioned it irl but as I've wanted to talk about more and more personal stuff anonymously i've considered taking it off
my close friends read my blog, but it's because i left social media and this is the only place where i post online now. i do find myself self censoring just a little bit, but the people irl already have a good idea of who i am internally and have seen me on worse days
i probably have around 7 people who know this site exists? and, honestly, i wish it was only 1 or 2 of them hahaha. you do risk having to censor yourself way more when you share it with others, but i was proud of what i made & it isn't the end of the world
For me I have my site linked to only 1 social media site, I doubt most of my friends look at it. I only had 1 friend really talk to me about the contents of my blog lol. I'm thinking of taking it off in the future for similar reasons to you
i've mentionned it to like 2 friends but thankfully they haven't asked for a link. knowing that they can see what i put on my site would make me self-censor A LOT more than i already do.
only my closest friends know about my blog because a few of us have talked about writing our own. we're all true to each other and don't really have to make face. besides them, i have it linked under one of my profiles online - it really doesn't matter what people think of me, both online and in person. i understand where you're coming from though.
oh man. i don't think i've ever shown or told anyone about mine. i consider my blog to be more like a public facing diary... everything i want people to see goes elsewhere.
Your photography is gorgeous!! Love how the colors look β‘ your bucket list is lovely too, I hope you can go some of those things soon! ; __ ;
i want to do everything on your bucketlist as well <3 is it so bad to just want the simple things in life?
Your photos are so beautiful!! You have a great eye for photo composition <33
your photos are very beautiful and your bucket list sounds refreshing. i wish i had a chance to do those things too.
your words are so kind, sarah, thank you!! π« i don't have a button, unfortunately, but i'm honoured that you asked :,D i checked out your soundcloud and your music is so beautiful! the save point ep is gorgeous.
you're welcome ^^ I read this article from your links page -> https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1996/06/03/diary-of-a-murder
it's quite harrowing, isn't it? quite sad for all involved. found it interesting to read about tadesse's psyche, though. got me thinking about the state of mental health systems.
lowkey might do somethin' like this with my own site in the future, this is a great idea
