I finally had a message on the penpals site after not checking it for so long, and then it was this:
Hello.
More than once I have met women on this site who read horror books, watch horror movies, listen to music that also reminds of horror.
I can also assume that you write your novels also about some kind of horror.
Don't you have enough unpleasant moments in your life to fill and add to your life again and again through books, movies, and music?
You must not be a very happy person. Am I wrong?
Wow I mean...I write horror because I like it...and yeah I am unhappy...but not sure what that has to do with all of it....

Thank you, that means a lot because it's hard for me to keep going sometimes. I feel like I'm halfway through my life and have nothing to show for it, and I'm worried that I never will. I know some behaviors with BPD can be difficult, but I don't take my anger out on others or hurt them on purpose. So I feel like people shouldn't be painting everyone who has it with the same brush. There can be abusive people who don't have BPD too and they don't see that. And I feel like people who purposely make others feel bad about themselves are abusive. Thank you for seeing the good in me because I feel like most people don't take the time to do that. And I see a lot of good in you too because you are always kind and supportive.
Yeah I would say I'll start decorating for Halloween, but I already started that like a month ago
You deserve that too, you deserve the best and I hope you will find that too. I feel bad about letting out all of my feelings here, but I'm glad that I'm not coming across as annoying or anything. I was thinking about "the end" last night and it was giving me comfort, but thankfully I managed to get myself out of that mindset.

I understand about the halfway through life but having nothing to show for it thing though cos it is like that for me too. It’s never too late though so I just try to hold onto that. I also try to keep in mind how unfair harsh, critical self-judgment is, and do my best to not be too hard on myself (definitely easier said than done sometimes).That’s good that you never take your anger out on others or intentionally hurt them, and I agree that people shouldn’t just lump “all” people with BPD into the same group. Yup exactly, a person can be abusive regardless of whether they have BPD or not. I agree about people who make others feel bad about themselves being abusive, especially if they are trying to make them feel bad about themselves. That is just not cool or right at all imo.
You’re welcome for seeing the good in you though, of course, it would be impossible not to imo because there is so much good in you! Thank you for seeing the good in me too though, it does feel like often others don’t really take that time for me either. I’m glad we are “exceptions” for each other for sure
Lol aw well that’s awesome about already having decorated for Halloween a month ago. I will try to get mine put up in the next few days. Aw thank you for those kind things you said, that was so nice of you. Please try not to feel bad about letting your feelings out here, it’s definitely not annoying or anything else negative. I’m sorry you were thinking about the end last week, but I’m so glad you were able to get out of that mindset. I hope the last week has continued to be better, wishing the best for you always
Same like MrB said, doesn’t really matter what some random, clearly clueless dude thinks imo lol. He kinda sounds like he has no life, I mean to even say something like that to someone, wow. Some people just don’t get it and end up being far too “black and white” about things. Thinking dumb stuff like “if you do this, then you must be this” like huh? One doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with the other lol.
Yup exactly, rather than even saying it in a critical and destructive way like that, he coulda approached it in a more caring, curious and sincere kind of way instead. He coulda tried to offer a helpful, comforting theory about it or something, or said “I think it’s awesome and inspiring that you are trying to channel whatever unhappiness you might feel into writing”, ya some people are just so wrapped up in negativity and narrow mindedness that they just can’t see anything other than that.
I’d definitely try to just not let that clueless guy’s energy get you down, you are clearly far smarter than he has any hope in ever being. Yup you’re exactly right that it’s an impossible thing to just pinpoint “one” reason for being unhappy, people are complex beings and there’s always more than just “one” thing.
Not sure if it will help at all, but those things I said above about more “supportive” things random, clueless dude coulda said were definitely things I believe and feel to be true about you (that it is inspiring and awesome how you’re channelling whatever “unhappiness” you’ve felt into writing) and also just doing all the writing you have, period. Whenever a person can channel their energy in a positive, constructive and productive kind of way then that is always a really awesome thing for sure. Many people don’t end up having the clarity or courage to be brave enough to take that risk, and also to share what they’ve written with others. That clueless jerk guy is probably also just jealous that he doesn’t have the talent or bravery to write as well as you do

I understand about it sometimes feeling easier to give up than keep trying and also about life sometimes feeling like a burden, I’m sorry you sometimes feel that way too. I try to just do my best to focus on the good things about myself, my life and life in general. Easier said than done sometimes but it is what I strive to do every day anyway
Sorry to hear your mom’s been annoying again too. I understand about not wanting to deal with it and having less tolerance for it as time goes on. That sounds challenging with the sleeping and feeling burned out, I hope that will improve soon. I’m glad you write though, it must be a nice outlet at least.
Ok, ya I agree with thinking that guy is an idiot, pot stirrer or maybe both of those things, that’s good that you just blocked him. Not worth your energy at all imo. I’m glad you aren’t bothered by that kind of stuff anymore now, that’s great. I agree about it taking creativity to write, and also what you said about him probably being lame, uncreative and wanting to take things out on you, glad you didn’t let him though, that’s awesome

Thank you for saying that, I appreciate it a lot. Same to you of course, but I know I’ve already said that a lot over the months I’m sorry it’s hard to see that in yourself sometimes, but I guess everyone struggles with that kind of thing at sometime or another. I also try to stay positive though for sure so I’m glad you do too. I hope you’ll be feeling better, less tired and more energetic soon too though I know it can be hard to see it “getting better” but in the past when you’ve felt that way it has always gotten better eventually right? So I’m sure it’ll be the same this time Have you still been eating healthier and exercising more? Those are such excellent, helpful and positive things to do for sure.
Ok, well that’s really awesome that you’ve grown so much like that and don’t let those kinds of negative people get you down anymore Yup exactly with it being perfectly fine to make any kinds of stories you want to, whether they’re dark/scary or whatever other kinds. Yup it all takes lots of creativity for sure, I’ve never thought one genre took any “more” or less of it than any other. At the end of the day you’re still having to come up with an original story that has characters, plot and all those other story-building elements, and that is NEVER an “easy” thing to do imo (I have tried many, many times, so I definitely know how very hard it is).

So cute and funny, love the icons you did too, especially the cute green waving bird (Duolingo) and Furby, so adorable
Those pics you posted are so funny too MrB, yup definitely gotta beware of those walls they are quite the scary things lol :p 😂
