Anon

Dear Anonymous,

I don't know who you are, but you obviously, you know me well enough to know my name and were I really go to school. I don't know whether to be creeped out or pissed off. I know that you emailed the very teacher that I mentioned in my last post with a link to this blog and a statement of concern for me.

Your concern is noted, but it is also unnecessary and unwelcome.

I don't know why you chose to email my teachers, but I can assure you that if you were trying to get a point across, that was a really shitty way to do it. I don't care what your intentions were or who you are to me in real life, your actions were incredibly immature. Since you obviously know me so well, if you had concerns about my behavior or emotional health, you should have come straight to me with those concerns, not gone to the adults in my life who, frankly, don't know a thing about the way I feel and couldn't do anything about it even if they did. Your actions strike me as cowardly, lacking in common courtesy, and shady as fuck.

I don't think you understand why I'm so annoyed, so let me illuminate you: this blog was my sanctuary.
I started it as a place to document my life, express my true feelings when I could do so no other way, and connect with people that I could not connect with otherwise. But you ruined all that with one little email. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm going to stop posting, but now I have to censor myself in the one space where I thought I didn't have to. The fact that I can no longer vent without repercussions is annoying.

Indeed, it is public domain, however, some of the things I write on here are not things I want to share with people I know well. I would never post anything that I couldn't handle doing damage control over if this blog were publicly outed, but I was under the impression that if someone knew I had a blog while knowing me in person as well, that they would at least have the decency to tell me.

I suppose I cannot expect this much from my peers.

Your intervention on my behalf was an intrusion, nothing more. You have not rendered any help, and the fact that my teachers now know that I have a blog will not hinder my continuance of posting on it, so know that whatever your intentions were, unless they were simply to piss me off, they were not achieved.

That being said, I must ask you, Anonymous email sender, with the utmost respect, to please fuck off and keep your nose out of my life.

Sincerely,
Julia

  1. Wow. I'm sorry to hear that, I can't believe someone would do that...
    I'm just a random person, but my blog is kind of like that too. I mean I write whatever I want and that's all it is meant for. I'd be pissed if someone told my teachers, parents, or anyone else who just doesn't need to know what I write on here. Gah.

  3. That's terrible. I'd share your feelings if anything like that happened to me. Anon, if you're reading this, either fess up to who you are or just leave. Ugh.
    I'm so sorry, Jules. That Anon is a complete [censored].

  5. Actually, Anon, just tell Jules who you are. It's the mature thing to do, rather than hiding behind a mask of "caring" anonymity.

  6. That sucks a lot. I really hope they have the decency to reveal themselves.
