Do you find that...?

...when things in RL are not so great, your roleplaying is affected? If so, does it make it easier or harder to RP? Do you notice your characters are affected too, eg. the confident, air-headed jock is suddenly introspective and solitary, the quiet library guy gets depressed, etc?

I am having some issues in RL, have noticed a few things about my online life, was just wondering if anyone else gets that ever and such.

I find that sometimes a bit, Nellie! How it plays out for me usually is RL being hard makes my muse a bit harder to come by, and sometimes means certain plots are less appealing to me than they would be if things were going well. I usually make a concerted effort to try and minimise how much this affects my characters thoughts because I want to try to stay true to how they would act, but I definitely feel the tendency you're talking about!

I hope things improve, we are all here if you want to talk about it more <33333

! I feel so too, and why you see me having a thousand of characters, cause my muse will jump between them when I am feeling a certain way. I have always want to let my character stay true to themselves, though certain times I do reflect how stress I am on them, especially on Molly - I have no idea why - when I am so stress then she will be handling these stress with me, it's not unreasonable for her though, she has tons of things going on. But yeah, I am sure I am rambling.

Yay, I'm not the only one! Yes, I'm the same way. Especially if I'm stressed or something, I just need to step out and wait until I can gather my thoughts. It's hard to play a variety of moods at one time. But yes, this is something I've definitely noticed I do. I always feel like my characters are a bit crazy within one thread, because I might reply to that thread on different days with different moods. It's so hard to stay true! Anyway, I'm just repeating what everyone else has already said, but you are not alone!

Happens to me all the time. In fact it's IRL issues that cause my hiatuses from rping so much

Oh thank goodness, I am not alone! *hugs everyone* It's so tricky to stay in-character at the moment, I just don't know what to do with myself. I feel like they're all slowly becoming how I feel at the time (which is awkward, coz I have a few guys now xp). I'm not sure if I should take a break, or just go with it and try to minimise the damage as it happens. 

Thanks for reassuring me, guys. I was starting to get worried about my abilities as a role-player the other day P:
