CB Confessions
So here is a thread to post confessions (under an alias or not) about things that you wouldn't want people to associate you with. At least, that's how I think of it. And please, for the sake of privacy, unless someone specifically gives you permission, please do not attempt to guess anyone. I only have one for now-
In my first few months on the CB, I said I was a few months older than I actually was.
Wow, I've been feeling guilty about that for a while. It feels nice to get that out.
Anyways, even if nobody posts on this thread, I'm still glad I could get that out, if anonymously. Maybe someday I'll be brave enough to post this with my name.

Well, good to get stuff off your chest.
I went under a different name in the past, but I couldn’t come back under that one. So I created a new identity that people like.

I can be a real jerk to other Cbers because I am a total control freak.

Ooh, thank you for this! I do have a (little?) confessions to make... I first came onto the Chatterbox under a different name back in... 2015-ish? and left a year or two later because I got too busy, but couldn't resist coming back. However, I didn't want to permanently come back, because I didn't wanna spend too much time here, so I posted under a whole bunch of fake names. Now I've settled on one and have rejoined... maybe I'll say who I really am someday.

I made up stupid things just so I could fit in.

I did too! I'm pretty sure that it's common on the CB. I spent several months feeling horrible about myself and even contemplated starting over as a fake 'new person '. But I finally stopped those thoughts and are currently proudly posting under the same name.

I am somewhat addicted to this because this is the only place I can properly express my emotions (emotions are not my friends and I have trust issues so I do not share how I feel with anybody) and I have no other friends who are writers, so I feel most at home here, and Cricket helps me get through my daily life by giving me a safe place where nobody knows me here, but I can still be myself.

I’ve posted anonymously on threads I’ve created to make them seem more popular.

On the first ski lodge i created (which nobody will ever remember) totally lied that i didn't create it, and created and AE to justify that to myself.

Catsclaw, I applaud you for coming out and saying that under your real name, and having the courage to be the first not to post under an alias.

I still sometimes feel like a stranger here. Even after a year, I don't know any of you nearly as well as I would like, and I don't always put in an effort to change that.
(August 13, 2018 - 1:24 pm)
I've already posted here, but....
I haven't shown this site to any of my friends because I'm worried they won't like it. I'm going to try to change this soon though.

I have to admit this: so, I'm in this ski lodge, right? And two people are making it together, so they put a thread up on This Month to discuss it together. And guess what?
I. Freaking. Read. It.
I'm sooooo mad at myself! I regret it so much! If either of those ski lodge creators are reading this, I am endlessly sorry.
Sincerely apologetic,
Soren

I posted a thread under a fake name here once. I made it seem it was a new person coming on and I'm sorry for that.

I often feel as though no one remembers I exist on here unless I'm right in front of them, as no one usually mentions me where I am not. I'm afraid to say so because I'm afraid I sound whiny and selfish.
