To look back at all of the posts I made here, where I spent a decent chunk of my adolescence, and young adulthood.
My last post here was October 9th 2014. So I was on this forum from age 17 to 25.
Although I see growing maturity in some of the posts made as I grew older, I still should have known a lot better to use the language I used and eschew the views I did when I was that age.
A lot of negative, toxic things I perpetuated on this sub forum and others and quite frankly looking back at it, I am grossed out.
It shows me how much I needed someone like the person I am now to tell me the shit I was saying and doing was not cool.
I had so many meaningless fights here that got racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, you name it.
I don't know if there are still people here that I did hurt with my words/actions that did not forget, but if they are still here, I apologize. And yeah I accept that my apology does not have to be accepted.
Also this is kind of a hard place to come back to. Not everyone who was here then, is here now. Sometimes people die, get locked up, or just are never heard from again.
But sometimes people find happiness, start families, find love or finally become the person they've truly wanted to be their whole lives.
I've been gone a long time, but I hope that the latter is true for more of you.
Good to see you are back and fine, mate!
I never left though, took year off here and there but still find my way back. I am the second end of the rope here - married for 7 years now, got 3 wonderful kids and all is fine and dandy, something just keeps pulling me back here. I guess you could say it is nostalgia,
