Have you ever been uninterested in a one x one rp?
Sometimes I find that my style doesn't work with another person. Even when we both share writing samples first, it doesn't seem to always work out.There is more to RP compatibility than just writing style, post length, and frequency.
Maybe your characters don't click, the plot is too slow/fast, or there isn't enough conflict, but sometimes the problem seem deeper than simple writer's block.
I find it hard, especially because everyone on this site is so wonderful, to tell a partner that I'm not interested anymore. I don't want to hurt them, but I also think it doesn't help either of us if I keep writing quick 'blah' responses because I'm not invested in the story.
Have you ever had a similar problem?
Would you rather be told if your partner has lost interest?
What can you do to prevent losing interest?
Have you ever tried to 'fix' a rp? Did it work?
Have you ever suspected your partner was uninterested? How do you ask politely?
