Opening this forum up because well we all had that frustrating moment where you get a new RPing partner and they are totally wanting to do something frustrating. Or they themselves are. So share a story or discuss one.

This is a little rant of mine.

When you get to the point that you're not enjoying it, that's the best time to either re-evaluate the roleplay, or move on.

(It's a bit hard to understand what's happening since you've fluffed up the explanation a bit)

I simply went along with their request, after all I hit them up and it's rude to act like any different (At least this is how I feel). But it's getting way out of control where I feel like its not going to work out. It's like they want to rush it, or half ass everything and start really fast, where i like to ease my way in and then pick up the pace.


This was your mistake. You have the choice to decline the request, but you didn't. By accepting you don't really have a leg to stand on if you want to complain about it. You say that they are moving too fast but could it be that you, perhaps, are moving too slow? They have an idea and maybe the personal ideas you are presenting are rocking the foundations of their idea.

Without us knowing what's "actually" going on... could you inadvertently be annoying them and that's why they are getting frustrated and snappy?

It was definitely my mistake, seeing I did hit them up as ask to RP with them. I gave them a list of some ideas which they rejected so we went along with theirs and left it at that.

The reason I did fluff everything up because it was hard for me to explain what they wanted to do. They really give a general outlook or discuss with me about what would be happening, all except they wanted a fantasy and romance as well as some action which I went along with. The plot they wrote was very confusing but I figure once we get started I'll understand it better which was why I didn't decline. I could have been moving too slow but if they wanted a particular way they could have started it out first so that I would have gotten the feel of things considering we went along with their idea and not mine.

of course it sounds like I'm making excuses for myself, but I did try to get a grip of things before everything went down the drain. I just felt like they didn't really give me a very detailed plot to work with. So they complained and picked at my post about how it wasn't what they wanted. Which is understandable seeing it was a idea they had thought of, but they didn't fully explain it enough so I only wrote what went with the theme.

I think they got frustrated at the fact i wasn't getting their idea but I won't take the blame for them vaguely explaining the rp to me and expect that I understand what they want without having a general idea. I had asked about the rp and other questions relating to the rp but the questions were either left unanswered or not really acknowledge.
