I'm sure at this point there is littl...Hayley,<br /><br />I'm sure at this point there is little I can say that won't simply be a reiteration of previous commenters, but I'm totally hearing everything you're saying. And I wish I could articulate what I want to say better, but I suppose I'll just have to try the best that I can.<br /><br />In the same way that you are imperfect, so too are your blog readers. No matter what, you're going to feel pressure to meet this ideal standard that has been set for you, and there is always going to be a chance that you will fail to meet it. And we get that. I mean, I can't speak for everyone, but as much as you have and continue to inspire me in a lot ways, I think what inspires me most about you is that ultimately, you are a very real, very flawed human being that I can RELATE to. I can relate to your crazy stories and I'm old enough to recognize that The Hayleylujah Chorus isn't meant to be a handbook for what I should and should not do, but I place for a twenty-something Harry Potter enthusiast can express herself, maybe even open up a dialogue, but ultimately just be a "sloppy hippy college student." <br /><br />I feel like this is really convoluted. I don't know, perhaps this isn't the best comparison, but I think it's kind of like the question of whether a YA novel should be banned because it has material some may deem inappropriate for a YA novel. John Green once said something about how books aren't in the business of teaching us right and wrong, and if you can read critically, you'll get that. Now, I realize your blog isn't a book, and that it's actually an account of your actual real-life experiences, and that opens up the possibility that people will judge you. But I think, or I hope at least, that your blog readers are capable of imagining you complexly, seeing that you're human and thereby not expecting you to be a perfect role model and a perfect writer all the time. All we ever expect from you, Hayley, is that you're YOU, you know, incredibly cheesy though that may sound. We like you because you're Hayley, plain and simple. And we get that Hayley isn't always perfect, doesn't always have the right thing to say, or maybe doesn't always have anything to say at all. And that's okay. I guess what I am ultimately trying to say is, do what's best for you. If you want to open up with us, share some stories, our ears (well, our eyes, I suppose), are always open. In reading other's comments, I see that my sentiments are shared, and that it's your honesty, however blunt, however real, that we really admire about you. Because like I said, I relate to you, and I'm sure others do too, and quickly penned, very real, very honest story about a date gone wrong or a college party fiasco is going to resonate with us just as much as a more serious topic like depression or weight loss, because it's real, it happened, and it comes from you. Does that make sense? I hope it did. I'm sure I speak not only for myself but many others when I say that I'd love for you to keep blogging, but I understand if you decide against it. <br /><br />I wish you the best of luck with everything,<br /><br />Maddymaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08780926026980254179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937874428494399399.post-21214526317098984332011-12-07T21:08:03.827-04:002011-12-07T21:08:03.827-04:00i think you should keep on with the blog. i mean, ...i think you should keep on with the blog. i mean, from what i read, it doesn't seem like you want to stop. personally, i don't mind that you don't post much.Frankie Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07613016018976976825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937874428494399399.post-87294026236182738632011-12-07T03:23:23.828-04:002011-12-07T03:23:23.828-04:00I'm going to agree with everyone and say keep ...I'm going to agree with everyone and say keep posting!

Young girls are going to make mistakes regardless of what you say, but I actually think it's helpful to know that someone as awesome and inspirational as you messes up too. If you lose some of your audience then that's a shame, but it's not the end of the world. You'll still have so many people who think you're brilliant and support you no matter what you try or who you kiss (also, people who are old enough for your posts to even apply to them are old enough to make decisions for themselves, and anyone who bases their actions solely on the fact that 'someone on the internet did it' is an idiot).<br /><br />I get how it must be hard, though. I have a blog and a pretty small readership and it's a really useful vent, and I can't imagine how I'd feel if everyone suddenly had access to it. I guess that's the downside to 'internet fame', aha.Chloenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937874428494399399.post-41787172062478112592011-12-05T17:59:04.055-04:002011-12-05T17:59:04.055-04:00I just want to preface this by saying I've onl...I just want to preface this by saying I've only been reading your blog for a couple months now, so obviously my thoughts are probably different than someone who's been reading your blog for years.<br /><br />I don't think you should worry so much about changing. I don't think anybody expects you to be the same as were at fifteen, or even as you were last year. I do think that for every person who might get upset if you aren't the same person you used to be, there are at least twenty or thirty more who want to grow up with you, or watch you grow up.<br /><br />As for feeling guilty about having days of moodiness and cookie-dough indulgence, I think that's part of the appeal of getting to know you through your blogs and vlogs. Maybe a lot of people look up to you, but I think part of it is because you DO let us see some of the flaws. Honestly, I usually get frustrated by people who seem like they have it together ALL the time.<br /><br />As for the people in your non-Internet life reading this, I don't know what to tell you on that one. I know that the second I tell a single person about any of my blogs, that affects how and what I write. I guess I'd say to try and write through the scrutiny. You've been blogging long enough that the people you're closest with are probably accustomed enough to your blogging that they'll accept it as something you have to do (Am I being too optimistic? It's easier said than done, I know.)

Your videos and blog posts are inspiring and help a lot of people. I really hope you choose to keep yourself open to the public, because it doesn't matter what some nasty middle-aged guy or a jealous fourteen year old girl says. They hide behind the mask of anonymity, and you are brave enough to do what you enjoy every time you update your blog or upload another video. Thank you for doing what you do, and I hope that the voices of your true fans shine through for you. Your videos always make me laugh and cheer me up when I feel sad.

If you were the image of perfection all the time, you wouldn't be relatable, and I would end up thinking to myself "well of course Hayley G. Hoover can stand up to that sexist pig, but I could never do that, because I'm the kind of person who sits around in sweatpants eating raw cookie dough, and Hayley is obviously an all-around better person than I am." But that's the thing - you're a normal person, not inherently better or worse than anyone else. That's what makes your more empowering posts so inspirational. I'd be sad to see you stop blogging, or start censoring your blog posts.

I'd like to think that maybe when I'm in my 30s I'd like to go back and read my posts from right now and wonder what I was thinking and reliving those moments and what not. I don't think you need to censor yourself from your blog just because you're getting older because your readers are getting older, too. You may be a role model, but you're also a human being. There's nothing wrong with sharing the experience of your alcohol-induced weekend or something haha don't feel you need to protect someone. In fact, you might be able to teach that 15 year old reader from doing something if you admit how big of a mistake it was to wear heels to...

For the longest time, only fandom people followed me on twitter so I could rant about things that happened and complain about people in a witty way without upsetting anyone. Then somehow, people from school found my twitter and started following me and now I can't tweet half the stories or quotes I want to tweet simply because people may be able to figure out what/who I'm referring to. And worst of all, I can't even tweet how upset I am that people from school follow me because I don't want to offend anyone. Some may say it is strange that I would rather have strangers than friends follow me, but then I didn't have to care if people thought I was a boring/pessimistic person simply because I tweeted about doing college apps all the times. Now its like second guessing every tweet which I hate.<br />I'm not willing to part with my twitter, but I feel like everything I now tweet is boring and mundane.<br />So yeah, I'm not entirely sure if this relates exactly to what your talking about, but it just felt good to type it all out. <br />I'm sorry I don't have advice about how to deal with the situation, but just know that I would continue reading your blog either way!Alynoreply@blogger.com
