I have fans?

I am a social butterfly. I find it relatively easy to make friends, despite having social anxiety in new/unfamiliar situations. I find it easy to get along with most people and can usually start a conversation with anybody I meet.

However, I have never been popular. I have never been the person that people fight to sit beside when going to the movies. I have never been somebody that people notice and watch and try to be like.

I work hard to be a good role model for my younger cousins and those who might be close to me. And I put that into practice here as well. I try to write, knowing that somebody might read that I could potentially help.

But ... I never considered that I would have fans ... I am not just talking about friends who enjoy my company, or people who read a blog and enjoy it enough to maybe subscribe, but actual fans! People who follow me, and who want to be friends with me. People who cheer me on from the sidelines, people who may never have commented on one of my blogs or even said "Hi" to me in chat.


Recently, this has been brought to my attention more. As I have been struggling through life a little more lately, I have received some very encouraging comments and pms from people that I have never met. These getDarians know who I am, and follow my story and they care about me! And I didn't even know they existed!

This blows my mind. How is that even possible?


It is a weird feeling knowing that so many people are lurking and just following me. Part of me wants to curl up and hide. Being watched is a bit scary, but at the same time it is nice to know that I have so much support from people, and so many that I don't even know. It is a little bit overwhelming to be honest. I mean, maybe I should have realized that I had fans, but I just didn't.

I really don't know what the point of this blog was supposed to be ... I guess I was just having a bit of "wow!" in shock moment and I needed to share it. But I am going to make this the point:

If you follow me, and my story ... if you are rooting for me, admire me, or even just kind of like me, say "Hi"! I want to meet you. You don't have to lurk in the shadows. I love meeting new people and making new friends.

And I promise, I don't bite!

    Oh come on, Buttyfly! (I'm calling you Buttyfly from now on.) You are so totally allowed to bask in it! Go on! Accept and enjoy the fact that you are both highly respected and incredibly well liked. At the same time. By the same people. (Not many can say that, Butterfly! [I'm apparently back to calling you Butterfly from now on.])

    Common mistake. Lepidoptera, not Coleoptera! (It was on QI...)
