In the short time I've been a brony I've searched for a place I felt... Comfortable... Being active, exercising my love of ponies and sharing art and commenting on /discussing others art. Each community I find is so rampant with fights that I just... Can't take it. It may sound like I'm being a wimp, or picky, whatever you wanna call it. But I'm not. MLP displays themes of friendship, getting along, etc, and it deeply concerns me that that's not what I find. Every time I become afraid to speak out because I don't want to upset someone by saying the wrong thing. Now is no different. When I say things that seem... Unkind, I don't like for people to just assume I'm being unkind. I want to be asked about it, for people to learn what I mean. But I know that won't happen. It's the internet. But still. I'm concerned. I worry for social stability, and while I'm all for the fandom, I'm not sure if I'll ever be comfortable speaking out anymore. I hate hurting people. But it seems, despite not meaning to, it happens. I don't know if I can stand to risk it anymore. This is the 4th time I've become this concerned. It's starting to bother me something fierce.
For anyone whom I may have hurt, I am deeply sorry, and I hope you know that I don't go out of my way to hurt people. That's not me. At all. I don't often "joke around" either. So again, I'm sorry.

//I don’t really think there is too much to be sorry for. After all, we aren’t cartoon characters, We can’t be perfect. Nothing wrong with that imo.

I mean I get that. But it doesn't stop me from wanting to return to being a recluse. At least then I'm not a problem at all.

//Well I’m sorry that’s how you’re feeling, but I don’t think you’re a problem. In fact it could be that the people who think you’re a problem are the real problem. Hope you have a better day C:
