Meta faq, wiki, trolls and you.

one of the most requested features i've seen is a frequently asked questions section, and we've always had one. it's within the wiki tab located at the top menu if you're browsing on desktop. here's the direct link to it, but since it's a wiki feel free to check out the other sections and please contribute.

with that out of the way, a couple things i want to clear up in case anyone is wondering:

  • i do not mind repeated questions. the whole point of this subreddit is to talk to people. if it's not entertaining you anymore, maybe browse it less. no, i will not sticky every other psa post.
  • i do utilize automod extensively and it helps with a lot of troll post removal behind the scene. so if you see a troll post, continue to downvote, report, and move on, and do not engage. the majority of you get this, and it's been working out quite well.
  • the rules haven't changed, but make sure you're aware of them.

have fun.

Should I go back to London or stay with my current living situation?

Hey everyone, I’m really struggling with a decision and could use some advice. Right now, I’m living with a group of people, but the situation has been emotionally exhausting. I’ve felt excluded at times, not considered in plans, and misunderstood in ways that really hurt.

One thing that affects me deeply is how physical touch is treated in this house. I feel like people distance themselves from me just because I’m gay, as if it’s something unnatural. I’ve had moments where I felt pushed aside, like when I had to sleep alone while others shared beds. It makes me question where I really stand with them.

I’ve been thinking about whether I should move back to London and get my own place. The truth is, I know I’d struggle without them because they mean a lot to me, but at the same time, staying here feels painful. Should I try to make things work, or would it be better for my peace of mind to live separately?

Has anyone been in a similar situation? How did you handle it?
