@kylersartpace Hi there. This is such a heartbreaking read. I'm so sorry you're missing your friends, finding it difficult to make new ones since you aged up, and struggling in school. You have every reason to feel the way you do, but please please know that there are people who care about you and will notice if you are gone. I know I don't know you but I see you and your posting. It's ok if you don't meet the requirements for ATL. Aging up doesn't mean you have to lose friends. It's just a transition and an adjustment. Did you know even if you aged up, you can still chat with your teen buddies? Check out the Pen Pals Community and there you can make a thread tagging your friends. I love the forums. It's a great place to meet people. Did you know there's the Peer Appreciation Program where you can also send your buddies a sweet note of appreciation? A smile spreader will deliver your message to your peer in a beautiful way. These are just little things you can do to let your friends know you miss them and are thinking of them. :) As far as how you're doing in school, I really hope things get better for you. I know at times things may seem discouraging but please know you are a smart, tough cookie and you can do it. I'm rooting for you!

@kylersartpace Kyle, I'm sorry your experience with 7 Cups has been unfortunate. :(. I hope you can still find good people here, yeah sometimes we have our own issues too. I agree it's sometimes unsafe for me too

Hello, I hope you are well

I understand, I'm in a similar situation too. If you need someone to listen or support you, I'm here.

I can't help you with this app because I'm still new and I don't know how to use it,But you can try forums or other advice that people tell you.

I know it's hard, but I wish you the best.I wish you the best with your studies. Doing the best we can is the best.

I send you my greetings and a hug. Take care of yourself. Try writing on different forums or interacting here and there or talking to someone who will listen to you.


Have a nice day/afternoon/evening. You can 🫂🙌

They're not friends if you've not met them in person.

@ChopWoodAndCarryWater While you are entitled to your opinion, this certainly can't be true nor is this very supportive to say such a thing. I have friends, both members and listeners, that I have come to love. These people I have dearly come to love and care about and I have never met them. I'm sorry you feel this way, but friendship has no distance. :)

Same here but it's only been a few days since I aged up. The age up forms are older than time itself. Adult life makes me want to off myself.
