Your Anonymous Confession thread!

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

This, my friends, is your anonymous confessional thread. Many decades ago such a thing occurred in Misc and we are doing it again!

How it works:

You will ANONYMOUSLY email the Doctor at julianbashir@gmail.com. Please use an email address that does not connect you to either your trekbbs name or real name. You may sign it with a nom de plume that you use in future emails, or something soppy like "kind regards, Heartbroken in Ohio".

Your email will be posted in this thread AND DISCUSSED. Advice will be dispensed, critiques will be leveled and shameless lols may be had. Please keep this in mind. If you choose to reply via your Anonymous email and quote anything in the thread this will be posted with appropriate bbs quotes.

I'm hoping for confessions! Embarrassing stories! Secret fears and desires.. cousin lusting welcome. Photos will be posted within Google rules, no mooning, sorry!

What will NOT be posted:

Anything that attacks, speculates about or reveals RL information about any trekbbs posters.
Anything that addresses trekbbs posters by name, if you have something to say to someone PM them via your trekbbs account.
Any threats or fantasies of violence.
Anything, including photos, that Google would stop us from partaking in under the current Google/trekbbs relationship.
Suicide threats. Please either post under your trekbbs name or contact Lifeline in your city. I will not respond personally to any such anonymous email and I will not be posting them.

I will post your ANONYMOUS confessions, musings, fears, and utter fiction at my own discretion (ie, most of it). I will not reply to you from julianbashir@gmail.com at any point. Please don't write to me, teacake, at this address as I will not reply. This is for your anonymous confessions and musings only!

Okay let's have fun!

Oh I remember that old thread. I remember posting about about a cousin, and everyone assumed I was a certain poster.

Dear Doctor:

I think I'm in love with my coworker.
He has this adorable Irish accent, loves history, doesn't drink too much. Some, but not too much. Alas for me, he is a married man. I think he is interested in me, but its a pure love, not a romantic love.
Even Elim has pointed out that we're meant for each other.

Sincerely,

The One I Want Is A Miles Away

And here's one from a familiar face..

* * *

My dear Bashir Julian Doctor,

My name is Elim Garak. I am a 39 years old plain, simple Cardassian tailor and definitely not a spy.

I am in a hospital on Deep Space Nine. Recently, my Doctor told me I would not last for the next six months due to my cancer problem (cancer of the cloaca).

I am giving my money away because of my health condition and the fact that my girlfriend beard Tora Ziyal is an annoying child to deal with, and her father Gul Dukat is an irredeemable psychopath.

Before the fall of the Obsidian Order, my father, the late Enabran Tain came to Bajor's fifth moon with the sum of 24,000,000 bars of gold-pressed latinum, which he deposited in a bank in Bajor's Hendrickspool Province. I am here seeking for an avenue to transfer the funds to you in only you're reliable and trustworthy person to investment the fund.

Please I will offer you 20% of the total sum of 24,000,000 bars of gold-pressed latinum for your assistance. All it will cost is the life of one Romulan senator, one criminal, and your private banking information. Your immediate response would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Plain Simple Elim Garak

Well this one is a worry..

Over the past month I have been having bowel pain on and off. Thankfully there hasn't been any pain for over a week. I really should see a doctor about it.Thankfully, most of the pain goes away after a few hours. Only some family members know of this as I have posted on my social media feed.

Here's one not signed so we will just call this person "NOT ASHAMED"

Subject: LIkes Crossdressing and being submissive

Not ashamed about it but always wondered what it means. What is the difference between a kink and a lifestyle choice. Use to do more of it in the past but not any lately. Always wanted to be a cheerleader. Of course have other fantasies of being controlled by a strong controlling women.

To whoever wrote this, please see a doctor.

My first thought is celiac issues, or at least gluten sensitivity.

I agree. The thing with the gut is.. you really have no way of guesstimating what is wrong. You could have huge pain and it's not serious. You could have mild, irritable problems and it's serious. It's something no one wants to get checked out but think of the sweet relief if they tell you, "stop eating so many beans". Please do get it checked!

Dear The One I Want Is A Miles Away I hear his wife is often gone, mucking about in forests or something.. I'm going to make a very bold suggestion. I don't know what kind of holodeck outings you have with your coworker but I suspect they are the usual dull recreations of boring parts of history. How about a nice trojan file in there so that the program gets more and more.. erotic? Make it hilarious too and get him nicely sauced before you head to the h'deck. I'm afraid it will be up to you to make the first move but you can blame it on a holodeck malfunction and too much ale if you don't get the response you're looking for.

Failing that, delete the wife. Mourning is a very intimate time.

A kink is just something you do in the bedroom, a lifestyle is something you do in public on a daily basis. Dressing up like a cheerleader is fun, but is it something you want to do while waiting line at the bank?

You always wondered what it means? It means you like expressing yourself in ways that you are not traditionally gender coded for by society.

We have a new confession from "Call me Joe".

This is a challenging one with no easy answers.

* * *
Call me Joe

This is something that's been on my mind a lot lately, probably age. I am going to lay it all out. When I was in college I always had an attraction to both men and women (I am a man). I knew I had this attraction but I didn't pursue men, I pursued women. That's what the culture I was in with regards to college and friends did. At one point I had an opportunity for a sexual experience with a guy. He was very charismatic and very sure of himself, everyone knew he was gay. I won't go into the details but suffice to say I could have slept with him and I didn't, I backed out because of fear. It wasn't fear of the sex. It was fear of everyone finding out. Everyone knew everyone's business. Not a lot of secrets kept. My sibling was also at the same college, there was no way to "experiment" and have anything resembling privacy.

Fast forward many years. I am happily married to a woman, have kids, friends, live a completely heterosexual life, very straight I guess you would say. I have never experimented with a guy. That was my only opportunity and looking back I don't regret not going ahead with it because I wasn't ready to have that experimentation be a public thing. I don't regret not getting together with that particular guy even though he was very appealing to me at the time. What I regret is more complicated than choices I made in the past.

I am in a monogamous marriage. We have a good sex life. I don't want to be in an open relationship, my wife definitely doesn't want to be in an open relationship. What I can't stop thinking about is that because of these choices that I have been happy with I will never ever get to have sex with, or have any intimacy with a man ever. I don't regret my closing the door then, I regret that it is irrevocably slammed shut today. I think if I had gone through some experimental years this wouldn't bother me now. I don't want to do a midlife crisis thing and hurt my family in the process.

Working through regret is HARD. So first, give yourself some kindness. Recognize that this is hard. Then think about how everyone has regrets - much like you, it's not necessarily "I regret doing/not doing X" but sometimes it is "this path I didn't take." Let yourself grieve that path and what you think you might have learned or how you might have grown or been in any way different from where and who you are now.

Perhaps this could also be about other regrets and fears that this symbolizes for you. Are there other things in your life now that you do/don't do because of how other people might perceive you? Are there small chances you could take that wouldn't ruin your life but might let you face that fear of being judged?

Bumping this in case someone has been too busy quietly pining over their cousin to notice this thread.

“Cousins”? As in Amara and Michelle are the best cousins?
