I miss fighting but im ostracized from the only park near me
Im going to do my best to explain this without naming names or parks.
Backstory: I was playing at my park fine but someone brought up (apparently for a group of people) that people feel uncomfortable with me being there because there were rumors spread about members of my polycule supposedly pressuring young men to drink in order to get with them. I know this is false for 2 reasons. 1, the primary member, who also used to be a part of the park but hadn't come in a couple months, doesnt get with anyone below the age of 25 nor has the money to buy people drinks on the regular and 2. The other member of my polycule accused is a lesbian. So yeah not targeting young MEN. She's also 22 so is young herself.
Anyway, the rumors spread, it became a talk with park leadership and the supposed face of the group that basically said: im still allowed at park but dont bug people who dont wanna talk to you. Fair enough. The issue is the rumors spread to basically everyone in the park and it basically became like 3 people willing to talk to me. It was clear no one really wanted me there.
Now I left for a couple reasons. 1. No one came to here my side of the story and just believed everything they heard. 2. Its clear I wasn't wanted and im not gonna stay where im not wanted. 3. I would want to make friends with people but no one wanted to be friends with me after the rumors. So for these reasons I left.
Its been a few months now and I miss fighting and I have no real solutions to it. There are no other parks close to me. Nearest one is like 4 hours away. The belegarth group in my town shares alot of members with amptguard so it'd be the same issue. There is no jugger group. Im open to fencing and hema fighting but those both cost alot of money to get into and im a broke bitch. So I have no real solution and I was hoping yall might have something?
Also, for those of you who may recognize me, unless the park has changed significantly I probably wouldn't want to come back if im still just gonna be ostracized.
