>what are your reasons for being lonelita? did you leave your comm, or do you not have one near you?
I'm not a true lonelita because I do have a comm near me its just they have meets so infrequently and on dates that I'm busy that I haven't been to a meet in almost a year now (last one I went to was on Halloween last year) so I practically am one at this point.
>how often do you wear lolita? do you wear it every day, or just for special occasions?
I like to wear it once or twice a week and I tend to just wear it whenever I feel like dressing up. I wear it to class a lot and my boyfriend likes it so I wear it on dates too.
>how do your normie friends and family members feel about it?
My friends and family are all really supportive of it! None of them seem to mind it if I wear it when we go out places and some even really like it. The only time anyone has ever asked me not to wear it was when I visited New York with my dad. I wanted to wear lolita to the Baby store but he didn't want us to attract a bunch of attention or something. I dunno we're from a small town he thinks the big city is dangerous or something haha. That's the only time he's ever cared though.
>do you have any tips for other lone lolitas?
Just wear it. It's clothes. I know when I first started wearing it casually like to class and stuff I was scared that people we're going to think I was cosplaying and that it was cringey or something since I was just by myself but I eventually just stopped caring. I spend way too much on these clothes for them to just sit in my closet.
