I kinda lost interest in Looney Tunes due to the bullying and, well, it's been 3 years. I'm currently "fixated" on Gravity Falls. Do I move my account?

You should never let anyone make you hate things that bring you joy. I let people make me hate the US when I was 10 and I went on for years about how I hated Americans until 9-11 happened and than I felt very guilty about the things I said about Americans.

I think you have the right as well.

Gravity Falls seems like a very cool interest. I don't know how an account can be moved.

There's a WP section where you can go and ask for your old account to be closed.

I used to be bullied and harassed for liking Garfield and when I was in my early 20s I felt that giving up on everything Garfield was the only way I was going to have any peace. It sucked, but I was developing new special interests that helped somewhat.

And I still haven't given up on Garfield, even if I'm not walking around wearing him on my shirt in public anymore.

Now that I think about it, I felt bullied for liking Routemasters here so the Late 70s became my special interest.

I often have dreams about Garfield (or at least I used to have those - before I got this very bad case of insomnia :x ) - but it is ALWAYS like that it is a Garfield plush toy in those dreams. I even asked about this dream motive on the net and this is the answer I got: "Garfield is the cat that has human features. He doesn't want to get off the couch and loses his life in a safe place. He wants to have peace and is afraid of life. It's an escape. But when he needs it, he can quickly turn into a very wise cat. In him there is wisdom, independence, love and walking his own path. Only the world of people and technology stopped him in the world of illusion." :D

Think it's super normal for interests to shift with time. I hope you have the time of your life with Gravity Falls!!

For me, there's a certain sadness in parting with past special interests-- I put my heart and soul into them, so moving on feels like leaving a piece of myself behind.

You can always change your avatar and stuff. Maybe ask the admins about a username change.

I have a special interest that's frowned upon by many people. I don't even try to hide it. If I were to give up on Germany, I'd be a nervous wreck and I wouldn't be much fun to be around. I'd probably end up in the psych ward of my local hospital. Could you imagine a talk session around the table.

Me - I gave up on Germany so people will accept me more.

Shrink - Why in the hell did you do that? No wonder you're here.
