Hey there, pals! I thought I could pop by with this simple question, if you don't mind me askin'! Do you ever hug your friends? I do it with some, probably because when we first met we did this, and so this became tradition...I wouldn't know honestly, but this works out with only some of them, and only after we hung out and everybody has to go home.

Who's your best friend? Irl, its my best friend named Alexa and my cousin Anne. In the forums, my best friend is my cousin Anne also known as mlpfashion

Today while playing minecraft with my cousin, I discovered that my cousin is also a brony. Does anyone else have a relative or friend who is a brony? If so, how did you find out they are a brony? Has it changed the way you interact with that person? If you don't, do you wish you had a friend/relative who is a brony?

Because i heard this song :3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7VF-2PHdOU

It is self-explanatory. Would you like to have more friends? Explain why you do or why you don't. Maybe this thread can help some of us find additional friends.

I wanna help a friend of mine advertise his videos to get him more views, but I have no idea where to start. He also wants to advertise but half the time he either can't advertise where he wants or the people that see it get pissy with him like with reddit. Advice?

[OOC Thread info, backstory] "Hello ponies! My name is Sunflower. I'm a gardener and love nothing more than tending to my patch of the Wide fields which I call home and playing with the many other ponies who live in the Wide with me, especially my sister Cornflower. When I was a foal an evil centaur captured me and Cornflower and forced us into reins, but we are free now, and someday soon I hope my mom Rose will be too!" Cornflower (cornflower blue furred, white maned, black hooved earth pony mare – best friend of Sunflower): "Yes, hello ponies. I am a gardener too and I enjoy visiting my sister's garden, when Yucky - that's the centaur who lives next to me - gives me some peace anyway. I prefer to hide away from him in my field, but Sunflower has her father's temper and doesn't let him bully her even though she lives next to him too." Woolly (shaggy furred earth pony stallion, blue eyes, yellow face-fur, white woolly body with red ends) "Mmmff mmff! Ack - sorry, my mouth was full of fur... nopony knows why my fur grows so long. Anyway my name is Woolly and I'm Sunflower's neighbour. I don't really know the other ponies of the Wide very well... because, well I'm pretty shy, but I can tell you Sunflower is the warmest friend a pony could ever hope for." Scorch (white-furred pegasus stallion with red streaks along each wing) "Hey guys! You know, ponies say I'm proud, but little Sunflower here puts me to shame. She may have only just grown into her adult horse-shoes but she's already an example to all the ponies in the Wide! I have heard that even old Fire-feather is impressed... and nothing impresses her. You know, Fire-feather is the pony who freed all the ponies of the Wide in the first place! She's kinda our idol, and if I wasn't so awesome I'd almost be jealous of Sunflower here. Fortunately, I am awesome." Snowflake (earth pony mare, pure white fur and mane and pale gold eyes) "Hello everypony, I'm Snowflake. I may be little but I'm not a foal - I'm actually older than Sunflower and just as old as Scorch. I live next to Cornflower and often accompany her when she visits her sister Sunflower." Rose-mane (older-foal, pegasus, yellow fur with red streaked wings, blue ankle-splotches) "Heya ponies, good to see you talking to my gal pal Sunflower. We're the same age and she's loads of fun to be around. She never backs down from a challenge and when she gets the bit between her teeth she can be stubborn as a mule - and I love her all the more for it!" Swanny (hippogriff/seapony, pure white with blue streak along her back when she is a seapony, and along her wings when she is a hippogriff) "I know what you're thinking, 'what are those things on my claws' right... well I call them skis! Wearing them is like swimming across the ground. Sometimes I ski all the way to Sunflower's field - the Eastern Wide where we live is pretty snowy. In the summer though it blooms - Sunflower's field is covered in yellow and it's like swimming again!" Tortoiseshell (deep tortoiseshell flecked brown, earth pony colt, cutie mark sports three mountains) "Hey! Hey you! Do you wanna play? Oh you're talking to Sunny? When she's not tending to her garden we play races together! Yesterday, I won this ribbon. It means I won! You can have it if you like? But you'll have to race me first." Bite-size (green unicorn teen stallion with a red horn and scrawny teen-beard) "Oh, you're talking to Sunny. Most of the ponies of the Wide are lame in my opinion, but she's alright. Just don't bother her or you'll have me to answer to... and I'm pretty tough." Goldenhoof (small pony-sized brown/white shire horse with one golden hoof) "Ho there! You're talking to the little ponies. Now Sunflower may just be a pony but she has the heart of a proper shire horse, like her mother Rose. Now there's a sad tail. Maybe for another time..."

While I was at college last fall, I met a few other bronies while I was there. This was fantastic for me because I had almost completely ruled out the possibility that I would meet any bronies there at all since there were so few of them in my high school. Problem was, I had no idea how to lead into a conversation with these guys. They were all wearing brony t-shirts, so I knew that they liked the show, but I didn't want to go up to them and be like: "Hey...I like your shirt. Ponies are awesome." With a line like that, they might get the impression that I was creepily obsessed with the show or something. So I decided instead to ask about their classes first, what teachers they had, stuff like that. Anyway, after we introduced ourselves to each other, I gather up the boldness to say: "Those pony shirts are, uh...I love them. I like ponies. I mean, I like watching ponies. Dang it, no--I mean that I like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." After I blurt that out all of them just stare blankly at me. Finally, one of them says: "I do too..." "Really?" I say enthusiastically, hoping to break the silence. "Who's your favorite pony?" They all answer. 1st guy says Twilight, 2nd guy says Rarity, and 3rd guy says Applejack. "Applejack is my favorite too." I say with an embarrassed grin. They fall silent. "Sooo...what's your favorite episode?" I ask. They all give their answers (very quielty, I might add), then silence falls over us again, and it starts to get awkward. I begin to panic. "Well guys, it was nice to meet you all, but I gotta get to class. See ya!" I say in a hurry. "Bye." They mutter under their breath. Sheesh, you'd think people who were bold enough to wear brony t-shirts in public would have a lot more than a few words to say about the show. I mean, why did I have to guide that whole exchange? Where was their enthusiasm? Surely they'd talked about MLP with each other before. I know we were in the lunchroom and there were a ton of other people around, but when you're wearing a freaking t-shirt with a pony on it in public, I think you've already thrown away most of your inhibitions. I don't know...I just feel as if the topic of MLP was ripe for discussion, especially when it's clear that everyone in the group is a brony. You can talk about characters, the stories in the episodes, favorite Youtube videos from the fandom..I mean, is MLP such a hard thing to talk about? Is the subject, as a conversation topic, solely limited to what your favorite episode and pony is? How long do you think you could keep the conversation going about MLP with a group of friends? Are you too embarrassed to discuss MLP around people who aren't bronies?

I've read articles about how people are prone to use different language in different social settings (code switching). I try not to swear for the most part because I consider it wrong, but I do if I'm really angry or upset. And I'm a lot "cleaner" in front of my family than my friends, but I guess that's true for a lot of people.

How would you define those three types,what do you think it means to be a true friend, or best friend, or friend.

I just wanted to see how many people in this forum have no brony friends. In my case, I don't have any brony friends , yet they know i am one. It's just that they really could care less if I watched colorful, scaled-down, magical horses. Tell me your story, or brag about how all your friends are bronies, idc.

My friend, a fellow pegasister, is reluctant to join the forums. She won't give me a solid reason, but I think it has to do with the rumors she's heard about cloppers on the forums. Can anypony give me some reason for her to get on the forums and "join the herd"? NOTE: I call her Iggy, so you can identify her by that.

~WELCOME TO THE LYRA & BON BON FAN CLUB!~ Feel free to share anything to do with these two cute little ponies, whether you ship them (if you dislike shippings and art/love for them, feel free to turn back now ^^) or see them as closest friends! Forum rules and commonsense apply, and please try not to just post about only one of them; there's a fanclub for both Lyra and Bon Bon individually if that's what you're looking for~ ~FANWORKS~ ~Have fun!~

Do you watch MLP with any of your family members, like parents, siblings, cousins, or maybe even your friends, or relationship partners? What do they think of the show, and what are their points of view on it? I watch MLP with my mom, and even though she's not in the fandom cause she doesn't follow anything, she doesn't read fanfics, she doesn't listen to music, or look at the art. She just watches the show, and enjoys it! She doesn't make a big deal over it, but she gets pissed when I watch an episode without her! XD She has some opinions of the show that are common with mine, and some that are different! Fluttershy is her favorite! She also really likes Rainbow and AJ! She doesn't like Pinkie cause she's too hyper. She has mixed feelings with Twilight, and she's okay with Starlight. She doesn't like Discord. She likes all the CMCs, and she likes Scootaloo best mainly cause she pities her and thinks she's an orphan cause her parents never showed up on the show. She likes Spike as well! She doesn't like Rarity though cause she's a drama-queen, and she doesn't like how she treats Spike, much like my opinion of Rarity. I DO like Rarity! I think she's a good character, and her drama queen moments are funny! But I agree that I don't like how Rarity uses Spike's crush on her to get him to do stuff she wants, which is pretty much why I want the crush to end. My mom does although like Flurry Heart, and the entire Apple family, and all of the princesses! She likes Celestia best because she's colorful! How about anybody you know? What are their opinions of the show?

Because I have. Let me tell a bit about my life. My early years (up to age 6 I guess) was a pretty bad time. I didn't have any friends, I had to attend to preschool twice (which is still a bit of a mystery to me nowadays) and overall felt bad, my mom and dad were always arguing and my dad was a bit scary those times. It ended up in my parents to divorce, and we moved far away from my dad. Since then, I've visited dad now and then from all the way up here. Ever since we came here, I did actually make a friend or two, each of them during primary school (classes 1-6), where my longest-known friend came on the 1st class. He is still my friend these days, much like someone else, but I'll tell more about that shortly. Ok so it was the 6th and final class of the primary school, at which moment I was the oldest pupil of the whole school (caused by attending to preschool twice, meaning that I'm basically a year behind). Moving to middle school (classes 7-9), and that was the worst time of my life to remember so far (can't remember much about my childhood). I was constantly bullied and I hoped I could make friends, but they were basically all just bullies. After I made it through all those years, it was time to move to college, my choice was a business college. It started nicely, the class was nice, but just recently (about 4 months ago) I had thoughts about leaving the school, because the education line I chose (IT & Customer Service I guess) wasn't really made for me. I also turned 18 (October 15th), and shortly after that, we moved again. To the city where the college is, while we had been living in the town for like 10 years. So now that I'm here, I desperately hope to enjoy my studying more in the new school, as well as get more friends - I don't have anyone close to me right now. Now, some info out of the school life. I've NEVER ever done paid job, only the necessary parts throughout school, with the easiest way possible. I'm very antisocial and I'm still a bit anxious about the thought to work someday, I'm still not sure. All this packed together reminds me of how pitiful I am. I have two older sisters, who both have succeeded in a lot of things, while I, desperately wanting friends, is struggling inside. I haven't done anything remarkable, keeping a low profile my whole life. In other words, breathing, and that's all there is to it. But no matter how bad my life has been, I still believe and wait for the better future; as an infant it had been said I couldn't have had a future at all; my life was at risk but thankfully the doctors kept me running. TL;DR I'm weak. Share your weak points of life here!

Well? Personally, I usually eat alone in my room. I'll eat with friends if they stay the weekend with me, the only time I eat with family is when we go out somewhere. How about you all?

If there was one thing about you that makes you feel less connected from others, what is it? I'm not talking about how we can't meet each other in person or how far we are from each other, but rather about what is it about you that you don't seem to have in common with most members. I titled it this way because not having something in common with people can make us feel more disconnected and isolated from others. For me, while I do play video games at times (FIFA, GTA, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 currently for now until I see another game I'm interested in spending money and trying it), I don't seem to have the same approach to them as the majority of the forums do, which is enthusiasm and strong interest in it along with having a Steam account. In other words, I don't care too much about video games. And I don't know about you, but part of me thinks members and real life people won't find me interesting anymore. Or maybe I'm just thinking too hard. Just something I had to get off my chest now.

“ExplosionMare made a blog, what?!” Anyways, I wanted to make a little thank-you list for some of my friends here. I was gonna do this in a status update but a blog felt more fitting. Edit: I had this up last night but I posted it in the description by mistake 1. @Splashee You were the first person to approach me, which makes you my first forums friend. You were always so eager to talk to me despite my shyness and my various other flaws. I enjoyed all the chats I’ve had with you and I still enjoy them now. Every time we prepare for a chat, I always get excited and think all day about how we finally get to talk. I love how we’re able to feel comfortable talking about anything together and how we work towards things that are not so comfortable to talk about at first. Your patience, kindness, and compassion towards me will always be appreciated and I thank you for never giving up on me during all of the times I’ve given up on myself. I also want to thank you for teaching me so much about coding and game design. Without your help, I would probably still be intimidated to try anything like pixel art or basic coding. You are a mentor to me and your passion towards game design is a huge inspiration to me. You’ve taught me that putting only the upmost care in projects is what allows them to be great. 2. @WWolf Originally, we met on Last Poster Wins and I had fun exchanging nonsensical banter with you. Over time, we got to know each other well and I’m glad I got the chance to know you better as a person. I also enjoyed playing Pony Town with you and would love to play it again sometime if you would like. Thank you for being someone I can talk to about pretty much anything, whether it’s something goofy or something more serious. You are always very kind and supportive to me and have been a good, non-judgemental listener to everything I have had to say. I also want to thank you for always making me smile, whether that’s by popping in and saying “Booom” or sending cute emojis. 3. @Starforce Glimmer I was surprised when you approached me and immediately wanted to be friends, but I’m very glad you did that. You are a very creative and fascinating person and I thank you for sharing all of your neat ideas with me. I love sharing art and story ideas with people and I’m glad I get to do that with you. I also thank you for being so supportive and encouraging to me each and every day. You remind me every day of my worth and I can’t thank you enough for that. I feel very protected and safe around you and feel like I can come to you with anything. I thank you for always having something wise to say and giving me advice when applicable. You have taught me a lot about the world and myself and given me interesting perspectives that continue to inspire me. 4. @Sparklefan1234 At first, I only knew you as the “Rapunzel loving person”, but now I know you as so much more than that. You are a very kind and creative person, but most importantly, you are very positive and motivating. Thank you for your constant moral boosts and your genuine concern for me, whether it’s for a stressor I’m having or something minor like a headache. I also want to thank you for including me in the Sparkle Squad and for considering me your BFFFF. I am very honored to have both of those positions and I am honored to be friends with a cheerful, goofy, Disney-loving friend. I also want to thank you for the various art you have made for me. Most of it was a surprise and I am thankful for the time and effort you spent making OC banners for me. All of your work is fabulous and you should be proud of it. 5. @Vefka I appreciate the times I get to chat with you. Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts with you and allowing me to listen to some of your thoughts as well. You are a very interesting person and I want more people to know that you’re a kind person and a great conversationist. Thank you for sharing your opinions about so many topics and for being humble and thoughtful about your opinions rather than aggressive or rude. You are a very pleasant person to be around and I always enjoy the time we get to spend together.
