MLP Example: Twilight Sparkle is an egghead. Pinkie Pie is a party maniac. Rarity is a perfectionist. Fluttershy is... shy. Applejack is a true friend. Rainbow Dash is a jock. Six different ponies can become the best of friends, no matter how obscure their personalities are. Real Life Example: I was best friends with a girl once for about three years. She soon asked me to be her boyfriend, and I was shocked. Not knowing what to do, I agreed. We dated for about two and a half years, but in that span, I quickly noticed of the many differences between me and her. I was an introvert, she was an extrovert. I was brown-skinned, she was white. I was Democratic, she was Republican. I was skinny, she was not. I was tall, she was short. I was a geek, and she was not. She wanted to make love, and I was scared to... And so on and so on and so on... What I'm trying to say is that you shouldn't let differences tear you apart. Ignore them, and continue being friends with her. Had I known this before, I probably would have still been best friends with her, but instead we just give awkward glances whenever we pass by one another. Also, try not to force her into anything. As an introvert, I know my friends mean well when they try to cheer me up, but there are times when I just wanted to be left alone with my own thoughts. As for joining another forum, I can't help you there. I've joined a few other forums, but never really got noticed. Accept for deviantART, where although I made many friends there, there were still people who made me feel deeply insecure, which is why I deactivated my account there. I'm really hoping that I could possibly stick with Canterlot.com. With a community of only Bronies, maybe this is the place where I can actually feel safe online. Cheers~ Kodokuna Haisha
