The Old Lit

[LarryTee50]

I've been on Lit off and on for a few years now. I've had some good times and have made some connections.
I came here looking for what I call erotic fellowship which is simply wanting to be my creative kinky self with others who are of like mind. I've had my share of snaffoos and ghosting and have ghosted others and once been told to go fuck myself.....and I've had some very gratifying, sometimes profound, exchanges.
The key is to not take myself or Literotica too seriously.......and yes, I do take the time to read profiles......

Does anyone else miss the old Lit? The one where it felt like people were interested in taking the time to get to know you and form a connection? Connecting with a person who enjoyed the slow burn and build and excitement of the new relationship energy? Maybe I'm feeling nostalgic or am too cynical these days but it feels impossible. No I don't want to send you a nude after knowing you for less than five minutes, no I don't want you to call me instantly, and no I will not surrender or submit to you without building trust.

Yes yes yea

How far back does one go to find the “old Lit”? Personally, I can’t miss what I never had. It’s been my good fortune to meet some very good folks here. Met a few I didn’t care for and simply did not interact with them at all. Same as any other social media. Friendly chatter, humorous banter, and yes, some steamy sessions have, and continue to make Lit an interesting place to dwell occasionally. I am not big on nostalgia anyway. At 72 the nearer I come to my expiration date, the more I focus on the present. On social media and in real life. So for this ol’ cowboy…”old Lit” RIP.

I think there was a real kinship on the older lit. More of a sense of community. I had an older profile that I lost my credentials to in the early 2010s. Then lurked for a while before rejoining.

A lot of what happens here feels just like social media horseshit. There’s also a lot more drama now.

That’s not to say that none of it is good. There are tons of people who add a lot.

it’s just not as good as it used to be IMO.

Lol there was plenty of drama then. It was just more in your face.

Yeah we all have rose colored glasses. I've seen some shit of mine from 2006 or so and cringe at how stupid I looked.

But it was also mean

I originally joined Lit in 2000, under a different screen name. 24 yrs ago...jeez, makes me feel old now! This place is NOTHING like it was back then. I probably spent WAYYY more time here than I really should have back then, but just about everyone was friendly, fun, and it was like a "Friday after-work party" where everyone sort of "let down their hair" and just enjoyed each other. I met some VERY AMAZING ladies (both online, and in real life), and miss some of the friends I made here. Miss the old feel of this place as well.
But..***** trudges on....

Remember those times, there are fewer people like that now.

It's not the lit that's changed its the litsters. New generation of instant gratification of everything
