We Love You Tanner

Anonymous asked: I love Tanner because he deserves to be love! I browse through his blog from time to time. I really like his dancing pictures and his kitten pictures. They make me go :D and :3! I hope he continues to do well!

Anonymous asked: He's a sweetheart. My heart goes out to him for what he has been through. Kids don't know any better than to pick on others when they're young. Hopefully they'll mature in time, although some people never do. No matter what, he should never hate himself for who he is.

Anonymous asked: Tanner is awesome because he just is! :) I hope he is doing well and hope he gets into that summer dance program he wanted to do.

cooldudesonly asked: Regardless of Tanner's sexuality, I think he is a cool dude. He doesn't intentionally bother anybody, slander anybody or put anybody down. He just goes on with his life while naive, ignorant children harass him because they don't have anything more fulfilling to do with their lives.

You’re as awesome as this kitty :3

Anonymous asked: I love Tanner because he's a fabulous, courageous and loving little gay boy and very handsome too I might add.

Anonymous asked: Tanner is in fact very unique looking and it is so cruel that kids latch onto that and torment him for it, but I personally think he has a very uniquely attractive look and I know quite a few others who would agree. ;)

Tanner, I hope you read Jademerald’s posting.  I wish I had the ability to put in words what this young lady has done so with such passion. Hang in there. You will make it.

Hey Tanner!

Since I can no longer anonymously send messages on your blog, and I’ve sent quite a few from my own tumblr already, I’ll write it out here instead.

I know that all of this is hard for you, but trust me, it gets better with time. You should take great measures to avoid anyone who is bothering you if you can. It’s hard not to lash out at people, but you have to keep you head cool in front of bullies. They want to see you react, so don’t let them win. People mature, and hopefully most of the hate will go away once you are in high school. It did for me. And one day, you will definitely find someone you can love with all of your heart, body, and soul. So, I advise you to stop being sad over not having one and be excited about who the person is going to be!

You say that you want a boyfriend. Alright, let’s see if I can give a couple of tips on that. :) You’re already a handsome kid, so no problem there. You dance, so you have a passion. You care about others. BAM, you’re golden. I’d say talk to the people that are in your dance class, or any other activity you’re involved in. Make lots of friends by being nice to others in need. If there’s one guy, get to know him. Develop hobbies, hang out. At first you guys should hang out in a group. People make situations less awkward because you don’t have that awkward butterfly feeling as much because you’re with your friends.

If you want to develop relationships of any kind, just talk a lot, and let that person talk back. Talk about things you like, talk about the things you don’t like, talk about the things you have in common. Become awesome friends, and find out if he might be gay. He may, he may not. If he’s not, no loss, just stay friends. Now, let’s assume he is.

Talk more, get to know each other on a deeper level. Watch ALL the movies, do ALL the things, eat ALL the icecream. Love starts to develop when two people really connect to each other. I mean, you know everything about him and he knows everything about you. If he hasn’t figured it out by then that you like him and or he likes you then bring it up on your own. There you go.

Relationships don’t start right away, so don’t rush things. Let them develop overtime. Just know that if it doesn’t happen right away, that one day it will happen and you will fall in love with someone who is also in love with you.

This turned out to be quite long, but I’m glad I wrote it out. I’m a straight girl in her late teens, and I’m not interested in having a boyfriend at all. I’m perfectly fine on my own. But if some cute awesome guy floats by while I’m merrily living my already awesome life, I’ll grab onto him and hold him tight!

Sending lots of love and wishes,

-Jademerald

Anonymous asked: He's <3!!!!!!!! Heneedstofindaboyfriendandanyonewhobullieshimdeservestobebulliedtoo. He's super uber uber awesome. I want to lend him a hand and be his friend, and protect him from all the bullies but I'm too far away. I used to get bullied. I remember the bullies and I wish someone had stood up for me. I want someone to stand up for Tanner so Tanner can show them his true awesomeness. Oh by the way dancers can kick really hard.

The only way to end bullying is for everyone to stop. Really strong people don’t bully, no matter how they’ve been treated. No one deserves to be bullied.

Love will always trump hate.
