Role play or well played?

This is my first post in my blog and although I haven't edited my aff account yet, I'll do it later. Things have been hectic ever since I accidentally found a roleplay back in 2014. Yepp. That's right, roleplay. 

 

Honestly, it's not bad because I get the chance to meet new people and I know I keep hearing "don't trust people on the internet" but not everyone is as bad as you think. If you find people who share common hobbies or passions as you do, it won't be hard to get along with them. Before you know it, you'll be changing phone numbers and know each other's face. Some may even found their love. -coughs- like me. Regardless of their gender and age, all role players will somehow clique with others as soon as they know what type of music the other like or if they like sharr the same biases. 

 

However...

 

I did mentioned love, didn't I? Let's get a little deeper on the contrary,  shall we? Besides knowing a lot of incredible friends from another countries, I also met a few of those that make me so stressed out or sometimes ended up crying from all the dramas they caused in the roleplay. Have you ever feel that way? At first it's all beautiful and fun, almost dreamy sometimes but then....... your character's partner suddenly cheated or you're being confronted ooc(out of character) although we all know that handling stuffs OOC will always lead to being kicked out by the admin of the roleplay if it disturb the others. Yeah.. I've been hurt a lot.

In 2014, I thought things were going pretty well(pfft yeah right) but then my character got cheated on. Worse enough, you know who the role player was and you're so fond of her like your sis. I was so dumbfounded and it's the first time my heart broke into pieces. She could've talked to me about it if she wanted to make the plot interesting instead of giving me a mini heart attack and series of tears( yeah I cried a lot that time). Since then, everything changed? I don't mind making my character cheated here and there and I nearly lost my gf because of that. But then we got back together and coincidentally, we met in a few roleplays and yeah we became couples there. Hahaha. The chemistry we have is making it easier to communicate and we understand each other's busy schedules in rl (real life). 

I'm so sorry if I ever make my characters cheated on those characters though. I know it's only imaginary roleplaying scenes bla bla bla, but once you joined a roleplay, you'll realize that everything is "real". The way you greet other, the way you're trying to do something, the topics you're talking about and sometimes the struggles of having no internet. Trust me, taking hiatus for a week or two because you're out of data, isn't a pleasing thing. Thank God people understand that cuz let's be true here. Not everyone is well off and some may even have no friends in rl. Being active in roleplays is the only option to settle for those emptiness. Just make sure that what happened in roleplays might affect others. Discuss everything with the roleplayer before you're trying to make your characters broke the latters' heart. Think twice and imagine yourself being hurt like that. It hurts, right? Especially if you ever experienced heartbreaks, you'll know how it is. No matter what, HAVE FUN.

I completely agree with this post. Communication is key in anything you do, whether it is roleplaying to even relationships both in character and in out of character.
