Fencing Maiden wrote: Dear friends and acquaintances,
I'm not really quite sure how to say, or address, this. I'm nervous, sad, disconcerted, depressed even- and yet there is no way to avoid it.
Most of you know my parents completely dislike Lord of the Rings. This week, they made the request of me to give it up, Lord of the Rings that is, and everything that has to do with it. Actually, it was more of a command than a request.
For a moment I battled myself, because LotR is so amazing and so much an obsession to me. To give it up is like to tear out part of myself.
And yet I had to look at my priorities. What is more important to me: my obediance to my parents, or my love of LotR? In the end, I felt like to obey this desire of my parents SHOULD be my first duty, regardless of whether or not I like it. Sort of like when Faramir rode out to what he knew was an already defeated battle- made a sacrifice, made a choice.
I've got to do this, there is no way around it. Please don't make it any harder on me by mean comments; you have no idea how much I grieve to leave you all. I feel guilty for deserting the RPs and clubs that I'm in especially, but I honestly know no other way.
I do love you all, and for those I count among my friends, I will by no means drop you if you wish to remain my friend. To the rest of you, this was indeed FAR too short a time to be among such excellent people. *hugs*
I am leaving now.
--FM
FM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, FM! I just came back and now....I didn't even get too....oh, FM, I am so sorry!!! I will miss you so dearly....you where such a good friend to me!!!
I will miss you terribly, FM, but my prayers go with you and whatever path God takes you on and what life in which you are to lead! God bless you, deary, and I will miss you so! ;'(
Luv your dearest friend,
Turwaithiel

What you did was complete right and proper, honoring your father and your mother. Hard as this decision was, I'm sure you'll find greater blessing through this than if you'd disregarded their request/command and continued coming on here in secret. *huggles*

Oh. My. God. *Tries not to cry*
I... I... *Doesn't know what to say*
It was so great to know you... the ball was great fun and I loved knowing that at least one person also knew and loved a great obscure band that I had found. *Sniffle* Your shrine's not going anywhere, and I hope one day you'll be able to return.
Oh yeah... You win And you'll get to meet Gomez someday.

Joy.. Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
I know how you must feel though.. it is a huge sacrifice to give up what you love, but I respect it and your parents' wishes...
You are such a good and cheery friend of mine here and I hate to see you go! I hope to see you around MSN, MySpace and/or Facebook though... you are such a sweet person to talk to!
Wait... if Aramel was your mum... she is my auntie... that means we were second cousins! Ahhh!
I wish your parents would not hate LotR... what is there to hate about it? But.. I hope you will be back one day and until then..
Farewell, my dear...
Plenty of love,
Haldy

Oh FM! It truly has been a such a short time with you! And you're really leaving for good then? I shall certainly miss your lovely, shining personality around here. It saddens me to hear that a compromise just could not be reached. But I'm proud of you for making such a hard decision. Good luck dearest, where ever life may lead you!
You'll still be on MSN, aye? Maybe this won't be good-bye forever... *is hopeful*

My dear Joy. You shall be forever missed. I am not going to say you made the right choice because I think you have been unfairly robbed of your fundamental right to choose your own interests but I am going to say that I hope everything will work out for you and I hope that you will be alright!
I'll be thinking about you and sending major positive energy your way!
Blessed be!

FM! No! I thought it was bad when you had to leave temporarily because of the evil stalker! This is terrible!
I have a lot of respect for you though. It's such a hard thing to give up something you love so much just because your parents disapprove of it. You're an amazingly strong person to be able to do that. And even though it makes me sad that we have to lose you, I respect the fact that you made the mature decision.
I'll miss your randomlicious randomness! And your mad graphics-making skillz. And just the overall FM-ish-like air that you gave to the forum. It was so nice just to know you even for the little while and the little bit that I did. You'll be greatly missed love. Hopefully it's not goodbye forever.

FM... I don't know what to say... I'll miss you in here! We all will! Maybe there will be some time when your parents change their mind and you can come back to us, I'll look forward to this day...
Until then... Bye! We'll miss you greatly!
