I don't know if it's because it's 1 a.m. and I've been deep into bow making today.. oh and possibly suffering from HEATSTROKE from mowing the lawn, but I want to ramble/vent/complain/ask-for-suggestions. I, honestly, think this rant stems from me being too nice? I think I'm too nice. Am I too nice? -_- As a cosplayer, you appreciate it so much when people ask you for your picture or want a picture with you. I know that I live for those moments. BUT. What I don't like is when people ask for a picture of or with you and then hang around for 20 minutes afterwards. Don't get me wrong - I love chit chat and getting to know people and meeting new people and all of that bullcrap.. but like.. if I'm hanging out at a con with my friends or family, I don't really have the patience (and I'm being honest here) to have a 15 minute conversation about all of your cosplans that you may or may not be doing; or discuss all of your favorite animes that you've enjoyed over the last 15 years of your life. God, that sounds so harsh when I write it down. >.< Ugh. I'm not trying to be rude. I'm not trying to sound mean. I think that there needs to be a limit, though, on the time dedicated to talking to strangers at cons.. I guess? HELP! How do you politely end a conversation with someone who JUST. WON'T. LEAVE? SECOND PART OF RANT. People that want to take fifteen pictures with you of various poses - some of which definitely impede upon your personal space. They may not be lewd - hand on butt, etc. - but definitely too close for comfort.
AGAIN, I'M FAIRLY SURE I'M TOO NICE FOR MY OWN GOOD AND I'M A PEOPLE PLEASER AND I WANT PEOPLE TO LIKE ME AND BE HAPPY AND I DON'T WANT TO LET THEM DOWN AND I LOVE YOU AND WANT YOU TO LOVE ME. Q.Q BUT. I don't necessarily want to be nose-to-nose with you in a battle scene, nor do I want your arm wrapped tightly around my shoulders. I don't want to (unless it's a planned photoshoot) spend 20 minutes of my time doing various poses for you/with you. Just.. pick maybe TWO poses tops that you'd want and leave it at that. Like for real. This happens more than I'm willing to admit. I suppose I already know the answer to all of these problems I have, but I just want to vent 'cause like.. it's a blog and that's what blogs are for... ...RIGHT!?!?
