So I first got on this ride back in late 2013 and have loved MLP since shortly after getting on, but I never really had feelings for any of the characters in the show until the season 5 finale. For whatever reason Stralight Glimmer changing for the good just really stuck to me. I kinda just brushed it off at the time as nothing and honestly completely forgot about it. Later on when the season 6 premiere came around these "feelings" returned and just simply would not go away. I just simply couldn't see her enough and found myself extremely drawn to anything that involved her. I struggled for awhile with the thought that I actually loved her but eventually I just simply couldn't suppress it anymore.
I guess the real reason why I wanted to join is I feel like I have no real place to go. I am a regular user of a certain anonymous image board and over the past several months I have lost almost any ability to talk about her for a number of reasons. It has really worn me down. While I have been getting better due to the friend mentioned above(seriously thanks. You know who you are), I just hope this place can help me a bit more and help us grow our relationship in a positive direction.
I'll just leave it at that for now but I guess if any of you want to know anything else just ask.
Anyway I hope to get to know you all and make a few friends!
Hey, welcome aboard!
The nervousness is very normal- I remember when I first joined I was scared stiff. However, this forum and, even more so, my relationship with my Waifu became so positive for me (my demeanor was better, I was much more optimistic, I found it easier to shake of sadness) that it's been far more than worth it. I don't know what I'd do without my Waifu, and I'm willing to bet you'll feel the same way about Starlight.
TL;DR: Don't be nervous, this is totally normal and actually very healthy.
Anyway, look forward to seeing you about
