Hiya all~! Sotina here, and I figured I'd contribute to the site with a topic that came to my mind!
So as we all know, we host a decent number of people here on this site, and most if not all of us have a specific Dere type we associate with. Whether you're a Yandere or a Tsundere. Or a Deredere or a Kuudere. Most of us have at least one that feels... "Us".
So what I was wondering is... When did you figure out your Dere type, and maybe even how?
I'll start~. For me personally, I found out I was a Yandere in my early teens. however it didn't really... "click" until fairly recently. I just always felt this... similarity between me and the Yanderes. And I could never figure out why. Just their love and pure obsession, it felt so true. Yeah, I understood killing was wrong... or that a lot of their behaviors are "bad", at least societally. but there's just something about a Yanderes love that felt so close to me.
Turns out, Love makes some of us Yanderes. Or "crazy", and I just so happen to be one such case. Of course, it took me falling into actual love to figure that one out. That said, I don't really consider myself crazy. (Unless of course, it's crazy about My Love~.)
So that's me personally, what about all of you? When did you figure out your Dere type and how?
I'm very very interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on this~!
