Broken Girl Meets Bad Boy | Stray Kids Felix X Reader

End

So after a bit more than a year since the last update, you're all finally getting a notification from this book, but it's definitely not going to be what you think it is.

This was a social experiment.

My friend and I made this book because we were talking about how horrible some Wattpad stories are/were. A lot of stories on Wattpad are about or feature self harm, suicidal tendencies, abuse, bullying, illegal underage activity, depression, etc., but they all romanticize these topics.

I purposely wrote this book in an unprofessional manner, with run-on sentences and incorrect grammar, along with crazy events constantly going on as a way to steer you all away from the serious topics. I wanted to see what would happen, and like I expected, many people thought of the introduction as a joke and hopefully stopped reading there. Many others, on the other hand, constantly commented about how they related to the main character's feelings and ways of self harm and depression. I hope those of you are able to find a better way to cope. I hope you don't comment those types of things just to receive replies such as "mood" or "same."

Please support Felix and the rest of Stray Kids in ways that don't include reading about him getting abused at home and helping a suicidal person run away. While running away, being in a love triangle, etc. are not the worst things to support and read about, many seem to forget that more horrible topics are being romanticized. If you read these kinds of things as a way to cope with what you're dealing with, you're not alone with your real-life struggles, but please don't read these kinds of books. I know that finding people you can relate to is important when having problems like these, but many authors don't realize what they're doing, so supporting them makes them continue this. They will continue to stereotype people with mental illnesses, to make fun of them, to not understand that a lot of these romanticized events aren't real life scenarios for lots of the people hurting.

I hope that those of you who commented on this book, telling me that you love the story, that you want me to update, that you want to know what happens next, know that people shouldn't be romanticizing mental illness, suicidal tendencies, and abuse. They are completely real things going on in the world around you and me, and it's not cool, cute, or romantic to read about a k-pop idol (or anyone for that matter) "falling in love with you" through these things.

I hope my experiment helped you all realize how so many of us are at fault for our actions as we read fan fiction.

Thank you.
