I met an alternate version of myself today. I feel bad for them. But... from the way the conversation went, it seems like they feel bad for me too. What is there to feel bad for? Did I make a mistake by freeing myself?

POINT OF ORDER! if you are insecure enough to be openly wondering this with any genuineness at all, then probably.
Real talk, I don't think it's possible to call choices you made that define who you are now as being mistakes or not. I don't have the specific context of which of the dozen different things one of you could mean by freedom you're talking about, but like. You're not the Kris who made the opposite choice so there's no point in litigating whether you should have, you know? Your life is still going to keep happening anyway, whether or not it sucks marginally more or less. Admittedly this is partially the perspective of someone who interacts with the people with a morbillion alts a lot, in particular the Harleys. And also the perspective of someone who spent her entire childhood stuck by force of prophecy in a life she hated in a shitty small town, so the main thing I have to regret is whether it would be even POSSIBLE to have gotten out earlier. Things might look different on the ground when there's only two of you, but that's how I see it, anyway. ······································································ #mood: Tired #nowplaying: Suzumura Ken'ichi - With Broken Wings
Hmm, maybe I do, maybe I don't, but it says "if you know me IRL no you don't" in my banner for a reason. :P
