>>40139757>I don't see what the big deal isLast time I was really into ponies was the worst time of my life. And the ponies were the absolute best part of it. I suppose that somewhere in my mind I see a sort of correlation that I know is unfair but which keeps me worried. Because I feel that when things were so bad it was ponies that gave me enough comfort to keep me from ending it, but also from trying to improve. They just left me in this limbo. I recall once when I was in school and I remembered Rainbow Dash giving someone a hoof bump, and I felt so sad because I had no one with whom I could do a fist bump. I felt that no matter how I approached someone, I'd never have a friendship as genuine as the ones portrayed in the show. And yes, I realize how autistic this is.
>you have problems that aren’t going to magically disappear when you stop watching the show or engaging in fan content.Obviously not, it's up to me to fix them, but I never did.
