If we talk and agree to set up the story and the world, at least pretend that you’re interested

[I’m writing this because this happened to me 3-4 times during the past 2 weeks, and honestly it doesn’t feel good at all]

Before anyone slams me, I know that many people say that others will never be as interested in your plot as you are, which has some truth to it… although I met many people, and been that person who was very excited to work on an another world, plot, system, etc.

NOW, PICTURE THE SCENARIO…

- Someone responds to your plot
- They are interested, detailed, with their own ideas
- Writing, kinks, everything matches
- You wish to further discuss the world (since you STATED in your post that you’re looking for people who want to discuss the plot, world, character, etc) so you:
- Ask a question.
- …
- ….
- …..
- Silence.
- You read back, paranoid: maybe I asked somethign uncomfortable? No, I did not, it was just a plain question.
- After 12 hours, you message again, you know how discord and reddit works, sometimes a notif gets lost.
- Then one day pass.
- Two
- You don’t wanna message again because you don’t want to feel pushy or someone who expects the other to be terminally online
- Then, your motivation just withers away in the passing days
- All the excitement you gathered up in your little soul to finally talk about your kinky stuff just turns bitter, and I honestly can’t decide if them not answering ever again is better then them answering.

I know some of you want to comment “Well you should’ve stated how often the RP needs answers, how often are you available” or that “you can’t expect everyoen to be online 24/7.” First, it was. It was stated, multiple times. And no, I don’t expect them to be online. But it’s not like I’m waiting for a PhD answer? It’s literally just a single sentence question.
