I has question

[Batbrat]

So I didn’t really know where to put this.

I guess I’m wondering if any other littles experience this and what Daddys/ Mommy’s have to say too.

So I’ve had a lot of harsh realities in the past couple months that have forced me almost permanently out of little space. It’s made me grow tougher against the world. I guess what I’m trying to say is there’s become a huge gap between my big personality and my little personality. Because little me is so clueless and pink and yet big me is almost cynical and dark. Does anyone else have this? Can I still call myself a little even though big me is so careful and even though I haven’t been able to be in little space for months because of what happened? I mean, I don’t want to seem like a faker, but I also don’t want to give up hope that what I was sure was a part of me will come back.

You're looking at this with too much regard for the third person observer. What happens if we think you seem like 'a faker' anyway? Don't worry about us.

 

You like being in littlespace so you're a little.You don't need a daddy or a witness or any sort of timecard to justify it.

 

Let's say you're a foodie and for some god awful reason are put on a feeding tube, do you stop liking food? Even if you end up being on that feeding tube for the rest of your life, saying you love food wouldn't be a lie. Just can't indulge at the moment.

My advice would be to ease yourself back into little space as slowly as possible. While little space can be a great comfort, it can also be very hard to maintain, especially if you can't get into the mindset you'd normally have as a little. Just take your time with it. Allow yourself to slip into little space whenever you feel most comfortable, but I would recommend doing this a little bit at a time. Try to separate your little side as much as possible from your big side as you ease back into little space on a more complete level.

Of course. Being cautious is a wise thing, and just because you've had trouble entering little space doesn't mean you're not little. As someone above said, if you want to be a little, you are one

[Guest Arc]

If you think you are a little then you are. There is no set way to be a little. Not all littles enter little space often, and some don't have one at all. Being little is whatever you make of it. 

 

If you worry too much about this it will make it harder to get that part of you back. You just have to relax and let it come back naturally. Stressing or forcing it will only delay it.

You don't even actually have to go into little space by yourself lin order to be a little. I gor example, mostly go into little space when I'm with my daddy, because he makes me feel little and safe.

Little me's love of pink and cute spills over into grown up me, but grown up me also loves skulls, horror movies, black, etc.  On the outside, I'm just a regular girl but on the inside, I'm like 50% Hello Kitty and pastel colors and 50% goth and dark colors.   That's okay.  As far as little space goes, just go back to it when it feels natural for you.  There is no "fake" and no "real" little.  Being little just is.
