Oh the awkwardness....

I maintain a number of role play characters on IMVU for a number of different fandoms, all linked to a single account. They are almost universally female, with a few notable exceptions.

 

And then comes those awkward moments where guys (who do not realize that mine is a role playing account) start hitting on that girl they think is really hot... who is me. A guy, on the other side of the internets.

 

And then I have to break it to them that... Thing 1: I'm a guy. Thing 2: I don't swing that way.

 

This happens way more often than it should. On my public profile card, I even state that it's a role play account. And yet guys keep hitting on me.

 

Ugh.

 

Please tell me that somepony has had a similar experience, and that I am not entirely alone on this.

Haha. WELL, On an anime forum I used to go on, I know two people who used to RP together alot. One of them, who everyone thought was a girl, was actually a guy. :I

 

Well, erm, the other person was a guy too, but didn't know the 'girl' was actually a guy.

Infact it was me who told him, purely because of the fact that when I added the 'girl' on facebook [i already had the guy on facebook too], I came to realize it was a boy.

 

He's pretty awesome to be fair, but it was just so hilarious. They don't talk anymore... xD

Hah, I just created a female character in the roleplay section of this site today. Hope I won't have to deal with anything like that.

 

Closest thing I have to a similar experience is that my favorite fanfiction author thought I was a woman the first few times I contacted him, just based on my name being "Emerald" (this was the pre-Legendary days).

All I can really say is that I'm a girl, and nearly no matter what I get shamelessly hit on almost all the time. (I have had no issue on these pony forums :D) I guess, since they are under the impression you are a girl, welcome to feeling like a girl in that regard? Maybe state in several places in bold that you are actually male?


Pinkie Pie is my favoritest of the mane six for several reasons, but most importantly because she always has a good attitude. The others can doubt her, say somewhat unkind things, not believe her, and she just rolls with it. I also love her because her self-defined purpose in life is to make others happy. I believe her balloons cutie mark actually represents her uplifting others. Her amazing dimension bending and psychic powers are a factor, too :) When poor Pinkie Pie looses her mind, well, it is quite humorous. She has her own depression demons to fight, yet focuses on others. The world will be a better place when she succeeds in breaking that 4th wall! >:D
