Yeah, uhm... See, I have a problem. I'm one of those people who likes to be the leader, and can get jealous or self-conscious easily, not to mention rash.
And it sucks. Right now, I'm feeling bad because I feel like I'm doing something wrong by not having a better character than Holly/Flare. I feel horrible that I'm not a big part of the role-play. I'm also jealous of people who are really good at character design.
I don't try to be like this but I can't help it. I don't need anyone to change my characters or something for me, but can someone give me tips on how to stop being like that? It makes me depressed.

See, I don't want to go to the top. Being self-conscious I feel that will make me seem like a selfish person... I'm really not selfish, just rash... Ugh. I've been trying to stay calm, and I am, it's more me just being sad because I feel I could do better, and I'm not sure how. I have emotional problems. DX

Thanks... Because, now that I think about it, I haven't written a story or role-played in the last year... I feel boosted in self-esteem thinking that.

I know how you feel; I can be like that sometimes too. My suggestion is to just post where ever you can and make your characters do bold things within their nature. You never know how it'll turn out.

Awwwwh! Well, I'm really obsessed with writing and roleplaying, so I typically think long and hard about my characters. Like recently, I made Silence, but it took me forever and a couple songs of listening to until I found what was right. Also, I suggest sifting through the characters in the archives to make sure your idea isn't taken/over-used. That's what I always do. All I can advise is take a lot of time, think outside the box, listen to songs, and become inspired by others. Don't be upset or frustrated, because something can come to you. Try to incorporate your characters into main plots or events if you feel that they aren't important enough.
