I have pretty thick skin but I gotta admit finding out my family has a group chat without only me hurts.

They never believed in me or Pixelfed, but the fediverse does, and I'm forever grateful for you guys ❤️

@dansup Dang! That's super shitty and I'm really sorry to hear that. Very, very glad you're here though, kicking ass and making the world a better place. You're one of the beautiful people here on the Fediverse, I really admire.

@dansup Wow I'm sorry. That really sucks.

We put a lot of trust and faith in our families and when we feel excluded, we start to lose both trust and faith in the people that we love. And that's a difficult feeling to have.

Give yourself some time to sort this out. Maybe talk to some of them and ask them why?

Whatever you do, be kind to yourself. Make sure that you take time out to breath and center yourself.

You're stronger then you think you are. You got this.

@dansup No worries it is pretty normal. With most of the families you can only be a good looking on a picture. As long as you stand to the side. To be able to detach/cut off yourself easily. 😁🤭 And seriously, do your job, do what you want, do what you like, and don't bother about the people that doesn't bother on you. Simple and solves many problems. 👍

@dansup
You seem to have a creative mind, and others just may not understand your creativity. I am sorry you have been left out.

But look at it as an opportunity to find people that can help with that creativity, and inspire you to build the things you want. Build you up to the person you want to be. You made a great first step joining here.

I am just a spud, but I appreciate you being part of this community... and you are lovely just how you are.

@dansup I'm so sorry to hear that your family did that and you are hurting.

I've only just started playing around a little bit with Pixelated, but I love what you've done so far. I'm very proud of you!

@dansup ah, that's shitty - can't choose the family you are born into I guess; but certainly can choose your friends.

@dansup as somebody who has a family that's never once been supportive or even bothered to learn who I am as a person, I know how deep it cuts. you're doing good work for thousands of people. we appreciate you.

@dansup whoa, that’s some BS. Pixelfed is incredible and truly great work. Forget those that exclude you and remember those that support you. Your creation has brought happiness to many who truly appreciate your work. I’ll put you in my group chat , except it’s just me so be kind of awkward. :picardfacepalm:

Eeeee Woooo

@dansup I’m betting your excitement and enthusiasm reminds them that they don’t have something amazing like you do. I’ve seen this with other folks. Anyway… We appreciate you!! Thank you!!
