Scared Of People In LittleSpace?

[MarsyBars]

So, I've been on this page and similar for awhile now, but never really posted much. I've came to realize that when I'm in littlespace, I have this craving to be around like-minded people (CG's/Other littles) But I'm always TERRIFIED they're going to think something is wrong with me, or that I'm "faking it" (previously had a "daddy" tell me I wasn't actually a little because of the way I type in LS, and the issues I have staying in it.) So I tend to stay to myself when I'm little, but then I end up lonely and it just doesn't work out the way I want it to.. I have a platonic CG whom I'm comfortable with most of the time, but I still even get this feeling around him some of the time too. 

 

Not sure if I'm just a weirdo and it only happens to me, but advice is greatly appreciated! <.3

You aren't a weirdo! This is my experience too! This place, the chat, and with my current Daddy are the only places I feel totally comfortable being in LS and acting out all my shenanigans. my advice is to start small! a little bit here and there with other littles- The chat is a great place to start, imo. We're all different sorts of littles, some who type a certain way and others who type normal. there's no real wrong way to be a little. if you feel little, you are. simple as that!

 

and if your CGs are making you uncomfy, try to talk to them- Big to Big- about your concerns. if there's still an issue, maybe consider just moving on.

He thought you weren't in little space because of how you typed? I would have loved to tell him where to stick it lol. The thing about littles and little space and well.... everything really, is that not everybody is the same. Everyone is different and everyone is valid. ^^ You don't have to type in little speak to truely be in little space.You can type and speak as you usually do even when you're in little space. I personally loathe little speak text. It's hard to read and it's kinda just annoying to me lol. I don't have a little space but no matter my mind set I wouldn't change how I type and speak. It's just who I am, and might just be who you are too. 

 

As said above, chat is a good start. There's a lot of littles in there all doing their thing and in my experience almost everyone is welcoming and accepting of whoever you are. Start small and regain your confidence with people who aren't as narrow minded as you've known before. You'll get there ^^

i understand what you mean. im only comfy being in little space around my daddy. sometimes in public if theres not too many people around but most of the time its only around my daddy or on this forum. or on my personal little space facebook.

I get that big time. I never had someone tell me I was faking it, but I had someone(my first cgl relationship, they were a little and knew I was a switch) who hated when I got into little space. I eventually started thinking everyone hated me when I was in little space, so I got too scared to be little around anyone. 

Everyone on here is really nice, and like what they said above, not everyone is the same and if you feel little, you are. Never let anyone tell you different!

Take little babysteps at a time and you'll get there.

I know I am not faking it, *looks around my room which is messy and full of toys* but some will still accuse you of it, mainly to bring you down or because you don't fit in their view what a Little is supposed to be like, but the important thing is, you know that you are a Little. Now that is said, I am pretty much the same way around new people, I am shy and stay in the corners of the room trying to be as faraway from people, I would like to go to a munch and meet others, but I should probably only go if I am with someone who knows I'm a Little and will hold my hand as we meet others... so I know the feeling about being nervous around people.
