Why are you here?

[mranyguy]

In the immortal words of Emmett Fitz-Hume - Why am I here? Why are you here? Why is anybody here? I think it was Jean-Paul Sartre who once said... how do you spell spell Sartre?

 

[KUJACK]

Yes, Maryanne

Like most, I started with the stories and went to the forums. Almost left because the first thread I started was on the General Board. They weren't playing nice.
Since then, I've made some great friends.....

Friends and lovers....

I'll admit it, I was looking for smutty stories. Lit was a link on another site that had some. When I got to Lit I thought to myself I hit the mother lode of dirty stories Fuck, it was probably about six months or so, maybe longer, before I even noticed that there was a forum. So, figured I would join. I've had my ups and downs here, but overall the experience has been positive.

 

[Lord Pmann]

Wankery.

 

[Spins]

The answer is boobs.

It is always boobs.

 

[sks43]

For Spins... oh you didn't mean this thread?


I am here for all the words, they make me wet.

 

[Spins]

Like I said...

Boobs.

 

[sks43]

Like I said...

Boobs.

I'm not quite sure why you are here...

 

[barefootgirl69]

I came to Lit because I needed inspiration... I spent a year or more on the main story site before I realized there were boards, then another six months before I was brave enough to check it out and sign up. I wanted interaction with people others, and the threads seemed like a great place to flirt and have fun. Yes, this is why my post count is so high!

I stay because I've made good friends here and I love chatting with them, though I am doing less flirting.

I'm similar to the above. It was the stories that I first came for but then I noticed the forum. The confessional/experience threads were an education and I enjoyed people talking frankly about their sex lives and practices. Being able to read and share desires/fantasies/experiences anonymously in a way that you probably wouldn't with people in real life, unless very close with them, is great. Occasionally you click with someone and have a good chat. That's nice.

 

[MSH2]

Its all about the boobs

Honestly it was that long ago that I dont remember why I ended up in here. But I'm really glad that I did.

Sure there has been some bad stuff. But on the whole, Lit has been really really good to me. There are a lot of really good people in here and I;m very pleased to say that I have a lot of good friends here. And more than friends. I;ve met some wonderful lovers here.

But its not just about that, its a place to hang out, to be with friends

You have good friends because you ARE a good friend!

 

[Stryderthorongil]

Not sure anymore

 

[Katie_80]

Not sure anymore

See, I wonder how many people are here out of habit...because it is comfortable. I think I already fall in to the habit category.

 

[Bowlerpa06]

im here to meet people and read some good stories

 

[NeonSubtlety]

Honestly, I don't even know any more. I think it may just have become a habit at some point, and I'm struggling to totally kick it -- like that 3 week period, every year, where I bite my thumbnail.

 

[Tiamo15]

Came first for the stories, then to experiment with am pics, now I'm just here for the people. made some great friends here!

 

[zydrate]

...uhh...why? What did you hear?

 

[Winterscumming]

The written stories got me here and kept me coming back for years.
The audio stories sparked something different and made my visits more regular.
The boards made me join and create a profile and actually want to post. Though admittedly I haven't mastered that yet because... It's so vast and strange a place...

Overall, kink, comraderie and amusement I guess. It seems easier, in some ways, to build friendships with someone you can discuss all sorts of dirty naughty things with... And if it all falls to crap, well at least it was only on the Internet...

 

[Choirg1rl]

I was feeling sexually frustrated and just not finding suitable partners in my "real" life. I began by listening to the erotic audio. That opened up a new erotic world to me. After awhile, I wanted to have a more interactive experience, so I joined the forum in the hope of finding chat partners and exploring some of my fantasies in a safe way. I like that it's safe, and that there is an intellectual component to it.

 

[gNocis]

I think it's always interesting to find out why people are on Lit. So...what brought you to Lit? Is it the same reason you are still here?

Random, although I read stories here years ago when the forum probably didn't exist. Bailed on Facebook. I entered a poetry contest.

~waves hi to Katie80~

I originally came to Lit simply to post my stories. Then I found the Playground and believe it or not, it's a stress buster for me. And the people are so friendly and helpful,

 

[bill3901]

I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass and Im all out of bubblegum

 

[LWulf]

I came here originally to post stories. I saw the bulletin board (aka the forum), and felt drawn to it to see if I can give creative assistance to other writers, and get feedback from people who know how to write better than me; to be a better writer.

After that, the forum is just a social forum for hijinks like any other.

See, I wonder how many people are here out of habit...because it is comfortable. I think I already fall in to the habit category.

I'm in this category a lot of the time, and the friends category, and the wankery one. Plus it's simply great entertainment for the money.
