Don’t quit just make a fresh start.
We’ve all made mistakes and felt like leaving once in a while. Even if it wasn’t your mistake, it could just be the people you were around. The biggest factor in how much fun you have here is definitely the people around you.
The good news is that you can change the people around you much more easily here than in anything else. I have to tell you it feels very painful walking away from people. It’s hard but once you do it you’ll be surprised how quickly you can bounce back too.
Unfriend them and remove the rooms from your favorites and walk away. You can always add a few of back later on, but you have to walk away to heal. In some cases you may have to block one or two people and maybe even change your name. Both of these things are very easy to do though.
Then go to the gym and workout to clear hour head. Get a good nights sleep and you’ll be surprised how good you feel the next day and how easy it is to make some new friends. Everyone deserves a second or third chance and we all make mistakes and have to move on sometimes.
You know as well as I do Kait how many times I have had to do this, I’m certainly no stranger to the pain that can be found here on IMVU. I find the only way to move on is by making this statement, I forgive everyone that hurt me and I wish to be forgiven by the people that I have hurt. All I’ve ever wanted out of IMVU is fun and friends but have ended up with so much more, the good, the bad and the ugly……..My advice is to never ever become desperate and think that what is going on in here is more important then real life, it’s not!!!!!

Morgan, I really didn’t even think of you at all when i wrote this. You have been through a lot and your comments are very wise and certainly worth adding though.
I was going to say that Stephanie inspired this, not because she was having a hard time, but because she had bounced back and was just so loving and fit in so well. I just try to pick out the points and lessons I see as I wander through this place.

You were amazed how much you feel in love and how wonderful it was and then all of a sudden even a relationship that was amazing for months can blow up in a day. And I think because it felt so mind blowingly wonderful, that’s why it hurts so much. When you connect from heart to heart you can feel mindblowingly good but it can also be earth shatteringly painful if it explodes. All the expressions like what goes up, must come down are true, but won’t help. Don’t quit when you feel like that. Stay away for a little bit if you have to, or unfriend some people if you have to. But don’t forget that no matter how much it hurt it will feel better after some time has passed.
I cut this paragraph out of the post about how to handle drama but figured it kind of fit here with this post more.
