I’m sort of new to being fictionkin, I just recently discovered that I was. I was sort of wondering if it was normal to miss people from that life? I’ve noticed that I’ve really been missing my sister. I don’t feel like I’d ever meet her in this life, at least, not of my own accord. She’d be way more likely to find me if she ever wanted too. Any way to deal with something like this?

It is absolutely normal, and understandable to miss people that you were close to in that life. Sadly, for some of us, the truth is that in this life, we’ll never connect with those people again. There will always be that pain of loss when you think about them. What you can do is to focus on the relationships that you have built, and are building in this life. They will never replace those old connections, but they are no less valuable, and can be a good distraction when you are feeling nostalgic.

I recommend if you are actively looking to connect with people from your fictionkin life- reach out. Create a page online saying that you’re there, and try to connect with the community. If there is someone else who is kin of one of your friends, or has them as a soulbond, or fictive headmate, maybe the two of you will bump into each other.
