Hey, guys! I didn’t think I’d ever need to make this post, but I’m extra (of course) so bear with me! Like a dear friend once said, it’s time to hang up the cloak. TW maybe? I lowkey don’t care if there are any, but anyway.
It’s crazy to me how I started roleplaying here in 2017— and now it’s like an entire 8-9 years later? I feel ancient. Wattpad used to be my safe place, especially throughout my tumultuous angsty teen years. Now, it’s just like this box of memories that you can open whenever you want and everything’s just right there. I grew so much as a writer here— I fell in love with words and learning how to describe such intricate emotions, gestures, and thought-processes, and I’ll always treasure this cultivated skill of mine for years to come.
To my first Wattpad rp-mates, you were awesome <3 you are all probably gone by now, but if you aren’t, I miss you and I hope you’re doing well!!
To the people who tried to make me kms at 14, you guys were a crazy group, but you definitely made me so much funnier and developed my character. Thanks for helping me grow as a person and learn from my mistakes, whilst also teaching me how NOT to deal with a 14-year-old who uses her phone as a shield against social interactions LMAO don’t worry about it, forgiveness is free <33
To my friends whom I’ve met whilst bouncing around different fandoms, you’re amazing! I learned so much from you guys and I treasure all the collaborations and written works we have together.

To my first girlfriend (Ik right, on fricking Wattpad??), you’ll always be a part of me <3 thank you for letting me be a part of your world and for being a part of mine even in a short time.
To the people who dislike me/hate me/couldn’t care less, honestly, who gaf! Have a great 2025!
My parting words would have to be that Wattpad is a temporary crutch, and it’s great for escapism, but the world really isn’t as bad as you think it is. You’d be amazed at how easy it would also be to make friends in the real world if you can do the same thing here, online. Keep being weird and quirky, and don’t let people hold you back from loving what you love.
Oh, and special thanks to Stephanie, out of all my characters— without her, I’d still be that quiet kid in the corner of the classroom hunched over her phone. Becoming her and writing her has been so amazing— but I’ve grown out of trying to adapt her personality and aura. She’s definitely helped me become more self-assured and confident, but the rest, I’ve done myself.
Anyways, happy new year! Have a great rest of your lives, everyone!
Love lots,
Ria <33
