Hi everypony! 
I was inspired by @Street Light blog about friendship that I read today and decided to write my story about how I realized that friendship is important. Here's my story:
I used to be like Twilight back then, I was a recluse, never talked to anyone and was not friends. I thought that I shouldn't make friends with anyone, because I thought that many people are evil. I thought so because of the bullying at school, but I knew that there were good people and still I didn't want to be friends with anyone. In my penultimate and final year of school, I started doing workout and self-development and the bullying stopped, I even began to be respected more and I even remember how my classmates once supported me in something. Probably they began to respect me more because I began to respect myself. After finishing school, I went to a technical school, I wrote in my profile on a social network that I was a hermit and would not be friends with anyone. But it turned out that on the first day at the technical school I met a person who is now a friend to me. He became my first real friend. He has some similarities with me and it is pleasant to talk to him and in general he is a good person, I think even better than me. I especially like the fact that he often reflects on some topics and shares his thoughts with me on Telegram. About a year or two after I entered the technical school, I decided to look for MLP forums on the Internet and came across MLP Forums. I looked at this forum and registered here on the same day. I had no idea how to communicate, because I had little experience in talking to people, mainly only with my friend and my classmates from the technical school. And here I needed to learn how to communicate with people from different countries. The first thing that happened after I registered on the forum was that @Ice Princess Silky <3 sent me a personal message. I don’t remember exactly what was there, but one of the questions was something like this: “How are you feeling?” I was scared by this message, 
I thought that I would hide for a while, and then start writing in the topics a little, but I was immediately sent a personal message and I did not expect that everything would happen so quickly and I would need to communicate right away. I panicked 
and tried to reply to the message, quoted it and somehow deleted the message or what happened there? I don’t remember exactly. It’s pretty funny to remember it now! 
The first year on the forum, I didn’t communicate much. I was very rarely sent personal messages. Then I started sending messages to some users myself sometimes. When I first sent messages, I was very worried, but everything went well. Gradually, I started communicating with some forum users and they became my friends. In the Tea Talks topic, I kept a diary, so to speak, in which I talked about my life and this interested some people and they answered me and supported me. Thanks to this, I began to feel better. Then I started writing them personal messages and we became friends, I still communicate with them. For the first time in my life, I understood what friendship and support are. This place is amazing, it unites people from different countries, I met many amazing people here and some of them became my friends. This is the only place that helped me understand how important friendship is and where I managed to make the most friends. I am grateful to this forum and all its users! Friends and this forum helps me to survive the dark times that I have now in my life. Friendship is Magic!!! 
Sorry, I accidentally hit the wrong button and added this spoiler here.
I can't remove it on my phone
The time spent here, the communication experience I got and the new friends are priceless! A few years ago I could not even imagine that I would have many friends and support from different parts of the world. I will always be grateful to you, yes, to you! Thank you! 
I would like to tell you about one lesson that I learned while being here. Do not be afraid to make the first move. If you want to communicate with a person, write him a personal message. I understand this can be hard for shy people, it was hard for me too because I am shy, but now it is easier for me to write a personal message (But sometimes it can be difficult). Nothing bad will happen if you send the first message, the users of this forum are friendly..png ":))")
