Since making the post about my husband's upcoming birthday, I've lost four followers. That's the most I've lost in that short amount of time so far.
But you know what? That's okay.
I was expressing (though maybe poorly) that I wish I could make my husband's birthday special, and because I don't really see how can, I'm not looking forward to him having another shitty birthday.
Yeah, I was griping about money. Because money is something we're in great need of. Something that makes navigating the other hardships in our lives even harder. I was also expressing my frustration with the difficulty of other potential ways I could try to make his birthday special. I wasn't begging. I wasn't asking for help. I was expressing how shitty and frustrating it is.
I love my husband very much. My husband works his ass off to provide for me, and with all the meds I take, that is not cheap. We are barely surviving, and our whole situation weighs very heavily on him. I'm not looking forward to his birthday because I'm not looking forward to another birthday where he won't be properly celebrated for the amazing man that he is. For the amazing things that he does. For how hard he works to provide for us and the cats. I'm not looking forward to another of his birthdays where we can't celebrate and for just that day, forget about all of the bad things.
I will never pretend to be someone I'm not on here. I am who I am and you can take me or leave me. Your choice.
I'm not sorry for feeling this way about it. And I'm not sorry for expressing how I feel about it.
These are supposed to be blogs, right? Well this is me. Blogging.
It’s most likely not related ;)

I'm used to losing a little here and there. That happens all the time. But this happened pretty much immediately after I made the previous post. So I'm pretty sure it is.

Hello, I am sorry to see that you are feeling down. I wouldn't jump to conclusions - honesty is a good thing. If you feel there is a connection perhaps it just boils down to niche. Maybe those followers were used to seeing art and contests? Who knows - but I wouldn't take it too personally. And seeing as you are not sorry for expressing how you feel you could look at this like a 'true' followers test. The ones who are interested in everything you say will stick around.

Yeah, I'd rather have the true followers. I'm an actual person. So are you. And Rab. And our other friends.

I'm betting you lost the followers because you didn't play the follow4follow game, not because of what you posted.

Okay.
You aren't gonna believe that I know at what rate I lose followers compared to gaining them. So okay.

No no, the best birthday present for a family man is being with the ones he love himself the most. Don´t you worry, he appreciates.
Regardin the followers, we all get unfollows and follows everyday, do not pay attention to that, just keep posting quality content and the followers will come. As me, i just followed you a few days ago and i intent to keep it that way.
