>Having a shitty comm is a very unfortunate reason to fall out of love with lolita.

I agree with this, though maybe it's easier for me because I'm a lone Lolita and never was interested in the comms. I know firsthand how lonely it can be, and I know the wishing for Lolita friends and the wanting to have someone to share what you find beautiful with. But life has also taught me that some things you have to do alone, and that doesn't make them any less beautiful, and sometimes the most beautiful things are just a little bit sad.

I grew up living in a mix of run down city and redneck country, and I have always been interested in more romantic things than my peers, so because I was "different" nobody would be my friend, and I grew up learning to do things alone. I finally made a friend and we still are friends to this day, but they have very different interests than me, so I still do most things alone. It is sad sometimes, but it's what I love, and I refuse to give up a part of myself just because I live somewhere that I can't find another person who appreciates it. Lolita is for me, not for other people, so it's not important if I don't have others to share it with.

You never know either, someday you might find someone with common interests where you least expect it. You just need to remember to try having an open mind and not judge a person by the first time you meet them or their appearance alone.
