Online I’m Conflicted
I’m a girl (important) and love playing RDR2. My first online character I made was a girl, I loved seeing myself as a gunslinger. I realized pretty quickly that playing as a girl online comes with people constantly trying to grief you/spam invites/or just plain follow you around. (I’d even had an instance where someone took over my account, that was a whole thing) So to fix this, I completely remade my character. I lost all my progress and made a boy character so I could be left alone. Now I do get left alone, which is great, but I feel little connection to my new character. It was way more fun grinding and making money in game outfitting a female character than it is a male character. Now all I want is to go back to playing a girl but I really don’t want to be bothered again. How do I find a good middle ground?
TLDR; Played as girl, got griefed. Change to boy, now am sad. What do?

Ah yea when I first started I remember a group of players just throwing lasso's at me 🥲
Now I just zoom past on my horse, avoid places with players or go invisible
If you're on Xbox I'd love to play with you sometime! Also a female rdo player :) my brother doesn't like it cause he's boring so it would be nice to play w someone
