Oopsspilledmygenderfluid - Fancyname

the sims 3 is akin to hypnosis I swear. I start playing and get up to pee a short time later and somehow 8 hours have gone by

Unfortunately most of my rat rat pictures are on my old phone but here you go

Does anyone have any photos of rats that they are okay with me painting? I don't have any rats myself but those little guys are living rent free in my head. Please send rat pics.

😔

Do you like rats

I…Really? Do you…are…are you lost buddy? Need a mop for your genderfluid? I…

Huh.

I had several friends on sky who were more interested in chatting and not in playing Sky. We talked about real life stuff, sitting around somewhere. (Which is fine, just not what I wanted) And I never declined even when I really wanted to play Sky or talk about some new event because I didn't want to be rude...

Yeah it became draining super quick. It felt more like a chatting room than playing Sky. They started coming online less I began acting like myself more with new people. Not always accepting chat immediately or replying to people's chats with emotes if I wasn't feeling up to it. Now my friends know that they can join me if they want to play Sky and talk about Sky-related stuff!

In short, be yourself, try to suppress the people-pleaser in you and have fun :)

Hi!! How do you meet and make genuine friends on Sky? I’ve been playing for a few years now, but whenever I get a chance to chat with other players they either speak a different language or ask me a bunch of personal questions 😵‍💫. There seems to be so many funny and interesting people online but I never meet them in person!

I had to think about this one for a bit since im not good at making friends either JGGHFJ

I think it’s definitely easier to find people to connect with online rather than in game. A lot of the people I’m closer with in sky are usually people I find through online platforms rather than in game (though not saying its impossible to find good ingame friends, just might be harder) . A general thing would be to find those who have similar interests or humour, and as well as to spend time with the friends every once in a while, whether it be candlerunning or just hanging out to talk.

If you want a more in depth rambling of me going on about everything I know about making friends, then:

Ok well this is kinda for anyone reading this JGHJDJ

A general thing about friends is to find a common interest to talk about like OCs, art, sky in general, other games, anything basically, especially if you’re like me and bad at conversations. Even after you find the initial spark, it can get hard to keep up with regular conversations afterwards and it’s easy to drift apart. If you want to get closer with someone it’s definitely good to start conversations every once in a while. This can go from telling them things you think will be funny or showing them things to just things about your day. A lot of people appreciate this kind of thing and usually get comfortable to reciprocate it (unless you’re like me and really bad at stating conversations HFBSIC)

In sky, this can also be asking the other if they want to cr together or eden, even oobing if you’re into that. It gives the chance to hang out and talk to each other.

Of course, if the other person doesn’t respond with a lot of enthusiasm or doesnt seem to put effort into the friendship, it might be time to back off to give them space. They could either be tired and need a break or they arent interested in the friendship anymore. An exception would be if the person is already socially awkward or isn’t good at starting conversations. It can be hard to tell sometimes.

If you wanna find friends

For finding friends online, its usually finding a community and finding people within it or becoming a part of the community. if you’re social enough you can join discord servers and talk to people. Even if you arent as social, discord server can still help find people to interact with, like cr partners, heart trade, needing help people/finding help, that could lead to friendship. There’s also being on social media, though it might be harder if you dont post things or if you arent really noticed or something, though it’s not like you need to be famous to be able to find people. You can also find others on social media who are already asking for friends. Ive seen quite a few on tumblr and sometimes on other platforms where people asks if anyone wants to be sky friends. Twitch, the streaming platform yeah, also has quite a few sky creators that are willing to friend pretty much anyone, which could be another way to find a community (since quite a few people on sky twitch know each other).

For in game in sky: Moths are definitely easier to become friends with since you know guiding them and everything and watching them grow up, except moths are wild cards and some are euaheh weird and others never show up again. A lot of older players already have their own friends and friend groups and then other people play inconsistently or have different timezones/playtimes, so theres a lot more luck when making friends on sky. Best bet would just be keep talking to people and when you do find someone you bond with, continue to join and check in on them every once in a while to keep up the friendship.

Joining friends in game can be scary for many (me included), but it usually ends up not as bad as you think, of course respecting dnd spells (or cape codes if they have those). Even if you do join at an inconvenient time, its a simple “oh, sorry/mb” and you head out, leaving minimal damage and awkwardness.

Of course since this is the internet and people can be bad, if people cross boundaries even after being warned once or multiple times, or you just dont enjoy hanging out with, its okay to block and cut people off. No one is obligated to hang out with anyone nor responsible for the happiness of someone else. Having self worth and internet safety is important folks

Anyways people are complicated and theres a lot of ifs and possibilities and other stuff what not so take whatever advice i spit out mindlessly for granted JFHDO i dont know what im doing

This life, it happened in a park. It was warm, birds were singing from the trees and a woman was playing with her toddler by the small pond. The mother saw a couple, holding each other like they would get blown away by the wind the second they let go and smiled softly. It reminded her of her first love.

Emily gasped softly when she broke the kiss. "It's you. I- remember..." Her voice broke and she found herself in a hug. "I remember too. I missed you, my darling" Jay whispered, pulling Emily as close as possible and letting out a shaky laugh.

Robin was out on a jog, already regretting the idea when they spotted a annoyingly sweet couple on a bench, smiling and holding hands. The woman leaned in for a kiss just as Robin debated just going home and-

The woman with her toddler turned back to her kid just in time to see a scrawny jogger trip over their own feet and faceplant directly into the dirt. The toddler giggled when the stranger let out a string of curses that had the mother quickly cover their child's ears.

Robins mild annoyance at the couple across the park immediately turned into pure frustration when the memories came back to them. It only took Robin a few moments to recover (after hundreds of times beeing struck by the memories of countless past lifes in the middle of an otherwise normal day, you get used to it) and get up to give their reincarnated friends a good amount of shit for pulling them into their love story. Again.

Years later, a gray-haired couple sat in the same park, talking about their past and smiling at the memories. Comforting each other at the bad ones.

"I wonder where Robin is, now" Jay said, his head resting on his wife's shoulder. Their friend had passed away from cancer a few months back. They weren't sad, knew that they could trust their friend to find them again.

They had time.

Emily was reading the newspaper to her husband in their small garden. He listened with closed eyes when something brushed his leg. "Em?" Emily stopped reading, looked down and was met with a pair of yellow eyes staring back up at her. A laugh bubbled up in her chest. "I believe our friend found us, my love." She bend down to pick the small creature up, placing it on her husband's lap.

Jay felt the weight and lifted his hand, feeling soft fur. He smiled and felt the cats tail twitch. "Happy to see us, Robin?" The cat sighed. They would never get rid of these two.

The headscratches were good, tho. Wouldn't hurt to stay with them again.

Two lovers have reincarnated throughout history, destined to find each other and fall in love all over again. There’s also this third guy that reincarnates alongside them… we don’t really know what he does.
