Where you were and who you were when you first joined, what's changed, where you are and who you are now
I'll start! I remember I used to let people walk all over me because I was a people pleaser and had low confidence, something I'm still working on. I was indecisive and immature, and instantly blurted out my irl first name to two people I'd never met π
I stand up for myself and my beliefs more firmly now. Still not perfect, but I'm doing better than I was before. I guard my privacy and identity for my safety and comfort and let people know I'm not comfortable about telling them certain things. I have more confidence now in who I am, although I still struggle.
What's your story? -
This is such a good idea omg π
I was very, very, very overdramatic and selfish. I never owned up to any of the actions I did, and i was ruthless in my actions, constantly hurting other people. I was toxic and the stuff I did was purely unacceptable. I acted rlly cute and all that shiz, but boy, if u got to know me π i would literally argue with anyone and everyone who disagreed with me, plus i defended users that were in the wrong. Acted like I would leave GTQ or i would die a lot (looking back on it, i really would have liked to strangle past me). i never made any apologies, but when I did, it was sheer BS and i still canβt fathom how you all forgave me for it all.
Iβve changed rather a lot in the past. I still find it incredibly difficult to forgive myself for the BS i did in the past and i still hold a grudge against myself, but Iβm learning bit by bit. It was a major learning experience for me, and i donβt think Iβll ever treat anyone how I did back then ever again. that was pure disrespectful and unacceptable.
i have a bit more confidence, and my personality received a major boost (thank god π). -
When I joined I was an annoying 12 year old, one who was obsessed with video games and anime. I was... nicer then. I think it was before I became jaded. I have always been a dork at heart but back then I wore it on my sleeve. Around when I turned 13 or 14, I changed. I was rude, I began to lash out at everyone and I prefered the presence of one person, my closest friend, my brother. I was cold, haughty. I stayed that way until I was about 18.
Now I am distant. An ever growing fear that I noticed at 15 is catching up to me, but I don't want it to destroy me. I am kinder, I am sweeter, but I know that I can still be cruel. I want to improve and grow more than I have. -
When I was 13 I was extremely emotionally unstable and would lie for attention a lot lol I was Christian and attempted to debate people on religion and politics as much as I could from a Christian conservative lense (I wasn't as good as it as I thought I was.) I was super emo and clingy and very insecure.
Now that I'm a lot older I see that a lot of that dumpster fire has just been toned down and refined. I think I still have overly sensitive and impassioned moments but am generally a lot more rational and secure in my personal identity. I'm also agnostic and more of a classical liberal/moderate in my political beliefs. Still growing a lot. Still way too passionate about things that don't matter, but generally, I'd like to think I'm pretty proud of my growth over the last decade. My mental health is in the best state it's been in a decade so I'd consider it an all around win.
I do wish I was able to spend more time with you guys and help and support you all. I feel like I'm not active as much as I'd like -
When I first joined I would have told u my character arc and story and now that I'm older I instead choose to tell an emotional and heartfelt poem through emojis

When I was thirteen I probably came off as a bit arrogant but I was just baffled at the concept that I didn't and shouldn't need to prove myself to be "worthy" of other people's attention.
My temper was wild as well. I remember a certain user who always got on my nerves, I ended up making a petition to shun them for a month as a punishment. Luckily Spice talked me out of it.
Now my social skills have gotten better and my temper has gone down.
One thing is that I'm not as social as I used to be. I barely actually know anyone on here. -
i did a lot of things i wasnβt proud of, i joined at 10 years old and obviously had a lot of growing up to do. my main account got hacked and that made me upset so i decided to troll for a little while and make new accounts pretending to be different people because everyone was mad at me for trolling lol.
look at me, 11 years later, marking the posts of said trolls -
This is my first year here on GTQ, so I'm a n00b- I'm the same as I was when I first join in... late November I think...? It was still 2022 though.
