hey ! so. i figured out i am a system within the past month or maybe just under. i have told 2 friends who are also systems, and they have been trying to convince me to tell the rest of our friends. they say bc our friends are understanding and accepting of their systems i don't have to worry about being judged for mine, and that it isn't fair to our friends for them to not always know who they are talking to. the thing is, i don't know how to tell them and i don't know that i want to. i don't think i'll be believed and i don't want to make anyone sad. i feel like i need to leave clues for people so i can call back to specific moments as proof if i'm questioned. they say it isnt fair to not tell them asap and i should get it over with. i don't know how to tell people. i know its the right thing to do, but i don't know how. does anyone have any suggestions??

      It is not their thing to tell and that's really insensitive of them to do so. What they're saying may have some ground but that is for you to talk about in your own time when you feel ready!

      thank you!! i appreciate that a lot. i do still want to have a plan of how to tell people though, just in case my friends bring it up again- its been several hours now and i know at least one of them is still angry with me over this but i don't fully understand why. so i might just do it so everyone stops getting angry at me

      hi, you absolutely don't have to tell anybody you're a system if you don't want to. especially so soon after figuring it out, but also you're never obligated to disclose it at any point. you are not being unfair to anybody by not telling them you are a system or not telling them who is fronting. that is private information that nobody is entitled to. if you're uncomfortable and nervous about telling somebody, my advice is to not tell that person. anyone expecting you to share that info when you're not 100% ready is being unfair to YOU.
