Witty is different.
When I first joined, I was twelve.
I was young and I thought it was incredible that so many people
were willing to put their fears, their joys, their secrets, et
cetera onto a website where anyone could see them and it
wasn't anonymous. I loved hearing girl's stories about
being in love and I loved hearing their stories about heartbreak
too. I felt like Witty was my big sister - it taught me
everything I needed to know for middle school and high school. It
warned me to be careful around boys and girls alike, but it also
taught me to take risks and not hold myself back. It taught me
that people aren't always going to like me, and that's
okay. It taught me to stay strong during hard times. It taught me
to always be a good listener and to always be there for my
friends. It taught me to believe in my ideas and stay true to my
values and decisions. All this happened almost three years ago,
and I honestly feel like Witty has helped shape me into the
person I am today. I still love Witty, but I feel like it's
changed. Every other quote is about One Direction - which is
fine, because I love One Direction, but I feel like it's
become too much. If the quote isn't about One Direction,
it's about being depressed or how society sucks. If it's
not that, it's about bullying or people asking for faves and
comments to help them lose weight. And on top of all these
meaningless quotes, you have people writing quotes about other
users in a negative way. For example, we all talk about how
bullying is terrible and should go die in a hole, but then we
make these rude quotes and comments towards the boys on
Witty. Isn't that bullying? Plus, we have the "Witty
Famous" people. Isn't that like bullying? Aren't we
just excluding other users? We all make quotes aboout how if
Witty was a school it would be a school were everyone got along
and treated each other equally and everyone was beautiful. I used
to believe that. Now I'm not so sure. I bet it would be
like every other school out there. I'm not all "Witty
Famous", so this will probably get, like, ten faves, but I
felt like I should share my Witty Story. It's true
I've only been on Witty for three years and I'm still
young, but I can see Witty has changed and I don't think
it's right. I used to believe that Witty was amazing and
wonderful and almost magical. Now it's just society rearing
it's ugly head once again.
