recently, we've been getting the feeling that one of our friends doesn't like some of our alters. he's started treating us differently now that we've stopped masking as much, and doesn't seem to understand that we can't control who fronts all the time. he doesn't seem to understand much about our plurality actually, and doesn't care to know more than his own perspective on it(not being plural) it's frustrating when we try to explain and we can tell it goes right over his head. -Rye
But more than that, it's upsetting. Before finding out about our plurality, he was very supportive while we struggled with our ADHD and major depressive symptoms, even our chronic fatigue!! But his patience has seemed to wane when certain alters are fronting. -Eclair
It's upsetting that our friend doesn't like some of us, because to us it feels like he doesn't like "me", the collective. But!! He is usually very understanding, maybe he just hasn't noticed it and it's an internalized stigma?? I don't want to think of our friend so negatively... maybe we can talk to him about it?? -Muffin
