Am I the only one who hates the tropes/aesthetics section of apps? Aesthetics aren't nearly as bad but...
why... do you need this? It doesn't pertain to any relevant info about the character. The tropes just treat them like fictional people and, I prefer writing my characters as if they could be real people. This ruins immersion.

Why are tropes necessary? How do people do this off the top of their head????
It's just... filler. ITS FILLER.
I'm someone who prefers having only basic and relevant info for apps too.

But the main appeal is that it's fun. Fillery fluff, yep, but can be fun to fill out and think up for your character for some people. 

I also think it depends on the trope and how it's used. Cause at the end of the day, a realistic character is still fictional, and any work of fiction will have tropes due to the sheer amount of tropes there are. Even if only count character tropes, it's still a lot.

how do people have dreams, goals, heck, even tasks, and they decide "i'll do this" and they're able to do it without having this struggle just to move & then having to put oneself in a panic to force an action. can't relate but want to relate.

, I make connections online... I guess it is just as hard to explain as it would be if I were to ask how do you make connections with people in real life? Though I can say, it likely takes work regardless of being online or real life. I wish it was much more simple than this though.
take it easy.

i took a few months break from forums to play around on real time platforms (discord & esshar) & it feels wild now, because i've gotten spoiled on receiving replies back in like . . . 6 - 10 minutes

that being said knowing i don't have 2 reply to someone on jcink/proboards/etc. within . . . 6 minutes is . . . relieving lmao
