Teen Gothic

I go through this sometimes. I listen to the music, participate in everything that’s with the subculture/community, etc. I usually get called a poser at school because I listen to J-goth and other random reasons. but I listen to all the goth classics. Sometimes I think these things happen more often ever since the term “tik tok goth police” became a thing. Just a random thought. What are your thoughts and comments about this? (Hopefully this entire thing I type doesn’t confuse anyone I barely post on here)

Hi guys I've been in the scene for a long time now but just never did traditional goth makeup. I always have coloured hair so I never thought it would suit it but here it is… Let me know your feedback!

Was just thinking about this in the moment. There are these songs I find amazing, but the bands never did anything else remotely like them. It's hard to do that repeatedly. It's not necessarily because the lack the talent, just never did anything similar. Leaves such a yearning for what will never be.

The one's I'm thinking about right now are The Last Song by Trisomie 21(I like this version best, nothing to do with the dancing people), Not What I Expected by Crispy Ambulance, Shaving My Neck by Gene Love Jezebel, and Man of Straw by Sad Lovers and Giants.

I (23) have goth friends but we all met through ask.fm in early 2010s, and we are from different cities, so we basically only see each other at festivals and on travels. I really want to meet people from my city (Wrocław, Poland). I've tried to organise a meetup and many people seemed interested, but almost all of them dropped out and long story short, the thing won't happen. I attended The Cure themed event tonight, and was actually pretty dissapointed, because the club was almost empty, so I went home early. I go to live shows too, but people who stay after the concert ends are all 30+ and in friend groups, younger people just go home. I talk to some folks online, but they're either from different cities or countries, or really shy and kinda scared to meet up for coffee or something like that. Any ideas? Sadly there are no goth shops or goth clubs here.
