Off My Chest
RULES:
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
It's not the quantity but the quality. One good friend is better than 10 or even 100 acquaintances. I can count the number of true friends I have on a single hand and I wouldn't swap them for any amount of "friends" that don't give 2 shits about me and just want to "hang out".
Be happy you made a friend who cares and cherish it.
Agreed. I have about 10 really good friends. I have thousands of other acquaintances, people I know and like, and friends who aren't as involved.
Those ten are worth all the rest all by themselves.
