Ever since I became part of the furry or even online community, in order to escape all of the problems I deal with IRL, I've found myself literally face to face with the same exact problems. And it's one of the reasons I disappear, then come back, then disappear again, maybe make an alternative account, etc etc etc.

It's that I'm isolated. Even within my own favorite hobbies. Even within the furry community. Like, I'll go somewhere, nobody will care to get to know me. I'll try to interact, but whatever. Or I'll end up sitting for hours on end, idling silently while playing a game or doing something else, and then lo and behold somebody makes some sort of comment to me that is meant or directed at me in some way [like my nonreligious beliefs, political views, etc] just to get a response and then it's ME who gets in trouble for it; where the very next day everybody else starts talking about those things and they get squat said to them about it, or whatever.

It's just exhausting and demoralizing. Like, the only thing I ever really get viewed for is some sort of sexual fetish or object. Mind you, I have my kinks, but it's like. I'm not a person to people. Not even to other furries. A very select few respect me and they're usually pretty quiet too or busy, so I don't get to talk to them much. And the overall theme going on has made me unwilling to really want to step forward.

Between stalkers, creeps, general disrespect, etc etc etc. I just really regret even being in this community anymore. And I can't even do anything about it because I love my fursona and I do have a few good friends. I just wish I was treated better.
