I don’t even know if I should even be writing this post. When I used this site a long time ago I only ever used it as a place to confess, have my last words, that kind of thing. It was like I could just dump my emotional baggage here and be done. No need for comments to boast my ego or tell me that I’m worth it and I certainly did not use this site as a way to fish for compliments. It’s turning into other forums, the ones where people are like, “honestly, do you guys think I’m pretty?” I understand we all get a little insecure at times but really? I liked that there was the feeling that no one on the site was here to intervene or save you. While I have enjoyed some of the dialogue that SP is starting to develop it has a much different vibe. I understand that anytime you post something publicly, people have the right to assert their own opinions and feelings but there are guidelines in play here at SuicideProject that specifically doctrine how this community is set. If you don’t want to follow it, find another community. I think I’m going to let this be what it is. Comment, don’t comment, it doesn’t matter. I feel what I feel and you can feel whatever you feel.
Also I love that I’m listening to Awolnation while typing this.

So what’s the post about?
I think they feel as if the old SP is better than what it is now.
“sign of the times.”
It is what it is.
if ur insecure why would you post a pic
I think the “pretty” post was a result of sexual tensions/frustrations expressed on this site recently, “I’m a loser etc; and I’ve never had a girlfriend”, “my girlfriend dumped me/cheated, suicide ragequit”, “why do girls like men who cheat?”, “nice guy but I can’t get a girlfriend.”
Sorry I contributed to that. I’m just trying to sort stuff out internally and loneliness is a large factor.
The whole fishing for compliments thing was a little weird.
hmm… I am new here and didnt realize I broke any “guidlines” with my “am i ugly?- post” 🙁 well, I can see how something like this could come around as immature and trivial, but you have to understand that I feel like I lost my ability to differ between reality and imagination, when it comes to my looks. I got paranoid. For me it was kinda obvious I had to be ugly or why would I get rejected so much, because I my heart I didnt wanna confess myself that I just suck socially, when it comes to talking/flirting with women…
No, I’m sorry it was definitely certain threads lately that cumulated into this post. KinGin (sorry that name stuck lol) it wasn’t you necessarily, just how certain people have been responding (but it’s not my place to say anything I suppose). Again, I totally understand where you are coming from and I’m sorry that you were made to feel that way. I guess it bothered me more how some people were reacting with no consideration.
Yup those kind of posts have appeared more than when i first joined in (which is a bit less than a year). In a way i think it just comes to show that insecurity and social problems are rising, but maybe it’s just the new hip-design of the page, who knows. lol.
Insecurity and social ackwardness does create alienation and can lead someone to suicide eventually so i guess it kinda fits tho?
