I have been looking for friendship in the kink community for a long time. I have always wanted people in my life who could understand that side of me without being overtly sexual.

Well, I found this friend. At least I thought that I did. We played online chess and chatted. Had discussions about various interesting topics. Things that are good in online friendships. Nothing sexual towards each other. Enough distance that it could never happen. Everything was great.

Out of nowhere I got blocked and deleted from their life. Maybe I'm naive, maybe I'm sad, but this one really hurts. I thought that I had found a real friend.

Just remember that there are people on the other side of the screen. Flawed people with their own stories and history, but people nonetheless.
