You know, I'm a HUGE fan of watching American Girl videos on YouTube. When I watch these videos of my favorite girls on YouTube saying that they're leaving, they're taking a break, etc. it's often either because they have received so much hate that they can't stand it, or they are loosing interest in dolls, but touch upon that they have had some hurtful and bad memories from YouTube. Most of these girls have at least 1,000 subscribers.
I think about my internet life. It's always been good and happy, although I've had one cyber bully and all of my accounts have been lost, it's nothing too bad. I can get over it, and it's nothing that has made me want to leave such an amazing community of like-minded people. :') I feel extremely blessed.
Why, you ask? Because I'm not popular. With popularity comes hate. For an example, take Ali/girloftheyearstudios. She is EXTREMELY popular on YouTube, but {if you watch her videos or read her blog, you'll know about this} she, recently especially, has received a whole boat load of hate. Why? She was stating facts. Just because one of the most popular American Girl YouTubers states something about another YouTuber, people make it controversial. It's really stupid, and Ali was really just stating facts that were true, not things like, "I hate this girl because she always yells at people!" She can back up the things she spoke about.
But moving on from that, I feel really blessed that I have never received a hateful comment and that I have such a wonderful group of girls that love me, and I love them, too.
Just take some time and realized how blessed our group of bloggers are. We might get a rude comment every once in a while, but not 24/7. Our experiences are pretty happy, let's make it happy for everyone.
Awww! :) I love you too, Caro. :)
