venting but some questions

we share a common interest, love, and hobby that is unfortunately looked down upon in society. But we have always found solace in the publishers of our favorite zines.
However, I have noticed some things that don't seem to add up recently. Promises not being kept and I'm feeling taken advantage of. I have given the benefit of the doubt one too many times, but now it's starting to feel like a pattern. One time is understandable, two times we can forgive, but three times? Well, as they say, shame on me.
I'm struggling with what to do in this situation. Do I warn others about my experiences or stay silent? I don't want my emotions to get the best of me, but I can't help feeling upset. Regardless, I wish you and everyone else a fantastic week. Let's stay positive and keep loving our hobby. Peace and love

I’m definitely an FNG here; so, my opinions should carry very little weight, but I believe that this forum exists not only as a resource for access to literature from purveyors who have established themselves to be reputable but also a place to honestly and objectively review their services. It may or may not have been directed at you, but an active member here recently told someone in a similar position that they have just as much right to post a critical review to a vᎧnᎠᎤᎡ’s thread as a positive one. As long as your assertions are based in fact and not slanderous, you should feel not only free but encouraged to share your experience.

I've found that having a little whiny session helps me feel heard and understood. So, thank you for being here for me. My emotions can be all over the place. overly stimulated and others, under. It's a rollercoaster, but I'm learning to manage it. I jump to conclusions quickly. I've been in this scene for almost 10 years now and I've had mostly positive experiences, especially on this platform. With all the hate and despair in the world, I've found it better to rely on optimism most of the time. As for my situation? Everything has finally fallen into place and I truly believe that the wrong has been made right. Of course, I'm not perfect and I make mistakes all the time, maybe posting on here earlier but thanks to all my brothers and sisters on here! Peace and love
