When did I get so used to living here, without my memories, that it became normal for me?

It's been over a year. Most people adapt easily.

[for_myworld]

Yes, but...unless I think hard about it, it doesn't bother me that I'm away from my real world.

[laconicshadow]

If it bothered us constantly for over a year, we would all be driven insane. Apathy is a natural defense.

[for_myworld]

I guess you're right.

[natural_leader]

I think it becomes normal for everyone at some point. Maybe, if you don't remember what you have to go back to, it's easier to settle into a new life.

[for_myworld]

I remember only some of what there is to go back to. ...And my friends are...all there too, aren't they?

[natural_leader]

I guess. But... there are also people here to make friends with. With only incomplete memories of our own worlds, it doesn't seem as much like home.

[for_myworld]

I just don't know if it's right to feel...like I belong here.

[for_myworld]

It's just been so long since I've remembered anything.

[for_myworld]

I wonder why.

[blackmagicangel]

It happens to everyone after a period of time. It is difficult to maintain the drive to return, especially when we do not know what we are returning to.

Although perhaps I should have asked this first... how long have you been here?

[for_myworld]

About a year and a half.

[blackmagicangel]

That long!?

Ah... I mean to say... I, ah, see what you mean.

[for_myworld]

It's surprising, isn't it?

[ace_of_11s]

Tell me about it.

[for_myworld]

You sound angry.

[ace_of_11s]

I dunno. I don't feel that angry anymore.

[for_myworld]

Were you before?
