How do I delete someone else's comment?

@Luca help!

[Emily]

If you truly wish for it, I can delete that post. But was I right?

[AlexiCat]

I'm just kidding 

But no, it's not for him, it's for me. I generally buy clothes that I think I look good in just for the sake of feeling good about myself

[Emily]

Oh no, totally! I don't mean to suggest otherwise. It's awesome when you can feel great about things that you're wearing or doing. You're powerful!

[Rea]

I try on tons of that stuff when I want to feel

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

And yet my ex wouldn't ever go shopping with me for it.

Like.

Dudette.

In hindsight, maybe it's lucky that the experience isn't ruined.

*plans shopping trip*

[AlexiCat]

It's good to feel that way about yourself. You deserve it.

A new poll has been called about your preferences with furries.

Hey friends!

I haven't been feeling well lately\ I've been figuring out a lot of stuff about how I relate to different people in my life. I feel like this week has been overwhelmingly positive and I've just had a great day.

Sorry I absented myself so long! Hope everyone's been doing well
/C

Hey Casimir! You've been missed! I hope things start to look better for you. You can jump right back in to the RP when you're ready, but don't pressure yourself ^.^ We're just glad to have you here!!!

Hello world. I'm big sad today. I was supposed to go to a concert with my roommate today in SF, but he totally just disregarded me and went to SF with his friends and said that he would "meet me there". The whole point of taking him in the first place was so that we could go together and I wouldn't have to make the trip on my own. I asked if we would be coming home together, but he said he was gonna go back with his friends after the concert and so I would have to find my way home alone. He didn't even care about how I might get home... This upset me quite a bit, so I decided to sell the tickets and stay home instead.

I think the reason I'm so upset about this situation is because my friend demonstrated a complete lack of empathy for me. He's more worried about himself to care about how his friend might feel to be ignored over his other friends. He could have told me he would rather not go instead of making all these last-minute plans and trying to make both things happen. Overall I'm just super disappointed and I think it'll take a bit of crying alone to get over it.

[Emily]

I'm so sorry to hear that, Alexis :c that's really thoughtless of your roommate. Next time you see him, maybe let him know (gently) how his actions made you feel and that you were hoping this was a thing you two could do together.

[Rea]

That sounds like something that would really, really hurt. I sorry, Alexis :'( It was very inconsiderate to just expect you to go by yourself and then also get yourself home alone. I would feel very uninvited by that. I wouldn't feel very wanted.

[AlexiCat]

Thanks, everyone. I know I shouldn't let it get to me, but it's hard.

[Rea]

Not get to you? What are you, an android? xD Having feelings is okay, getting hurt is okay, it's what makes us human. Your feelings are valid and need attention, not doing so is like refusing to eat because you "shouldn't" be hungry.

Well, we are humans, and that is a good thing.

I've been intentionally ignoring my roommate all day... it makes me feel worse.

[Jens]

Man, that was kind of a shitty thing to do, what your roomie did, Alexis.

Do you feel like you can talk to them about this?

[Natalie]

Yeah, that's a lousy thing they did. But unresolved tension is always stressful, and you might need to directly address it to keep it from becoming a point of quiet resentment.

[Casimir]

Yeah, that certainly was pretty shitty on your roommate's behalf, Alexis .
Hope you've been doing better since.

[Emily]

We took a nice night walk :)
