I may as well admit it now.
I am a obsessed brony. I have not said it before because then, I was only a casual brony.
You see, I first became a brony a few months ago. The temptation wasn't as strong as it is now, so I didn't bother to aknowledge it.
But a few weeks ago, the temptation came back to strike, so it seems.
At first, it was just like when I first became a brony. Not much temptation then. However, as the days went by, the temptation got stronger, occasionally growing to points where it took a payload just so I could get back to whatever I was doing at the moment.
So I started posting statuses about it here. A few have responded, but there was this one forum member, Urdnot Pinkie Pie, he was the one who jump started the process, while Jadefire had just started the process.
So I decided to resist. I didn't really choose to keep myself away from a computer, as my whole family knows I love technology, so I tried to keep my time spent here to a minimum. I'm guessing most of you can already guess what happens, but if you don't, well, lets just say my plan backfired, literally. I began spending lots more time on here than I wanted to, so I resorted to google to see if others had ever resisted the pony temptation, but no luck.
More statuses came out from me, and Urdnot Pinkie was there on all of them. Then, there was this one comment on one of my statuses: "You don't have to be anything. Just do what makes you happy."
That struck me. All that time spent trying to resist went useless on that one comment because I realized something then. When I started resisting, my main goal was so that MLP wouldn't interfer with my schoolwork. I was too ignorant to aknowlege that.
Now I've realized, the only reason I was resisting was because I didn't want to lose my school friends.
I may not have a lot of friends, but I still need them. What I was too ignorant to realize was that this base- yes, this base, this fan base, this WHOLE forum are my friends. I don't need lots of friends that are bad, I have great friends that refrain from bad things, and I still want to keep them. What I'm saying by school friends are those people that curse excessively, do bad stuff, and only keep to themselves. I don't need them anymore. I have much better friends, and that includes this one.
Thanks MLP Forums.
