Hell Yeah!

That's good to hear. But hopefully they at least somewhat understand where you are coming from when you actually get around to explaining things to them. It would make things much easier.
Your parents aren't super hard headed are they?
I hope not......

lol I wonder how many rapists and pedos are here on SWF lmao

And I don't think you need to really explain things with your parents. Just say.... you're going to see a friend for a few days, or however long you end up staying xD
No need to tell them the whole truth right?

If only they thought that when I discuss stage legality, the SBRB, and tier lists.

But I really do appreciate the sentiment. If you ever need a hand, some advice, or an observation, don't hesitate to call on me. You can even contact me via AIM/YIM/MSN/email if you'd like. All of those should be available under my name on my posts.

lol Genius xD
But is there a reason why your parents wouldn't let you go, besides the fact that you'll be 2 states away xD

I really appreciate those kind words, Barge. That means very much to me. I do what I can...

Flying is the way to go =D
And next summer is too long of a wait. It would be for me anyways xD

It's bad enough that I have to wait till next summer to go to Thailand. I want to go NAO

Mhm. :]

It's always good to have that kind of person in your life. xD

Yeah, it's too bad...

Good luck with Ben. :3

No need to apologize. I know where you were coming from. xD

Having someone tell you that the person you care about is in vain because you never met them is pretty....yeah. :x

Yeah . :[

Lmao. xD

o.o @ OTL drama, lol.

Unfortunately, nobody filmed me singing! XD

Aww man can't wait to put up pix.

Iunno if there are that many pics that will have come out ok though =\. We'll see.

Yeah, I noticed it a few days ago. :[

*Sadface*

About half a pint LOL.

Had it before but never this much.

It's some badass stuff man. Lol.

Woooooah **** Absinthe yo.

I'm very glad to help. If there's anything I can do for either of you, please don't hesitate for a moment to ask. And by all means, keep me posted on how things are going with you two.

Oh, and about speaking... the two of you might try downloading a program called "Skype." It'll allow you two to talk to each other using your computer and/or USB microphones.

I know. I felt that way about someone once, too. We felt like we were totally and completely compatible and connected. We were so in-tune with each other that we would say what the other was thinking before they did. We weren't "lovers," per se, but what we were was unbelievably close. We felt like we had a bond at the mind and at the heart. Both of us felt that way. I eventually moved in with that person, and spent a month there.

Unfortunately, things went horribly wrong. The guy turned out to be constantly sulking and complaining about everything. He was prone to violent outbursts and throwing controllers (he also liked Brawl, but I refused to play him because of this, and when I did, I would intentionally lose). Couple this with the fact that I was going through my own terrible difficulties with coming to terms with myself and not being able to find employment where I was, and the situation was made that much worse, and still echoes to this day. What ended up breaking my heart more than anything when I saw a private conversation he was having about me on AIM with someone from Australia. He said nasty, HORRIBLE things about me - all of which he refused to bring up before when I asked him; and never spoke about to me directly - and showed such cowardice and deceit that my entire view of that person was totally and irreparably shattered at that moment. I still feel the effects of that horrible experience to this day. I mean, the guy even went out of his way to intentionally misspell my name as he was talking about me. It still strikes me to this day what a coward that person was.

Please don't think I'm trying to sound a death knell at your relationship. I'm just saying what can very well happen when you're "sure" about another person. What I think you should do - and I'm being very serious with you about this - is show Ben what I've been saying. Then I want the two of you to sit down to consider it together and talk to each other about it. I want you BOTH to be very familiar with what could happen when you're sure about a relationship, so that you two will act with care and knowledge.

Thats ok. Just enjoy.

I'm certain that it wasn't personal. That's one of the reasons I messaged Alex explaining just that.

I desperately need to give you a word of caution, though. And this is from a 25-year-old vet that, while I haven't seen it all, I've seen more than most people have, by FAR. My advice is this: for your sake and for his, PLEASE don't assume you know everything there is to know about Be. This is more vital than you might imagine. Because when you've decided that you know someone front to back, you'll end up in a state of shock when that person surprises you; and even worse, total disillusionment if and when the surprise turns out to be bad.

No one person knows another 100% completely. There are ALWAYS unexplored depths. And no one - not the deepest lovers or the closest families - will ever completely know each other's depths. That might seem like a terrible thing because it demonstrates that human nature is simply not totally predictable at all times; but this is also a good thing, because it means that there will always be more to learn about yourselves and about each other.

Don't be in a rush to proclaim your love. If you can hold onto t and let it blossom through time and experience, it will make it that much more worthwhile. And if the love actually means something, it won't hurt it in the slightest to have patience.

I know that's hard to believe now, but you'll have to trust me on this one. I know. I really, really know.

I know. Dear god, do I know. Many is the time I've been paralyzed by indecision because even just one or two people said something I planned on doing was a stupid idea.

He can't tell the future any more than anyone else can. No one can say for certain what will happen between you two. Maybe he'll end up being right. Maybe he'll be dead wrong. I don't think he was claiming that anything is written in stone. Remember that he can only speak from his own perspective, based on his own experiences. You would be foolish to write off what he says completely, but likewise don't think that he's laid a voodoo curse at your head, either. He was saying what he thought, from his flawed, human perspective. Nothing more, nothing less. It's all you can ask of anyone, when you get down to it.

Like I said in the topic, I know what it's like to meet people online and have them turn out to be pure and utter SCUM when you meet them in person. BUT I also know what it's like to meet someone online and have them turn out to be a great person and a great friend (and lover, in one case).

As I said, he DOES have a point about the possibility of people being different in real life than online, BUT from my experience, it's no more of a risk than going to a club or getting to know someone at work or school.

Barge, I understand you're upset, but I wanted to talk to you for just a moment as something of a friend and tell you that you should probably not let what Alex said get to you. I don't think he meant to give you any crap. And although I know as much as anyone that he isn't always the most tactful person in the world, I think his heart's in the right place.

I just don't want to see you get room banned because you caught yourself in a (justifiably) bad mood. I understand your anger, but the best thing you can do is just let it be. You can't enjoy life or love with a gigantic shadow over your head, wondering what people could say, or what could go wrong. Just focus on enjoying the now, learning from the past, and planning for the future.

Best of luck, sweetie.

Lol thanks.

Especially for the ugly guys!

lol kk Good night Kade

LOL

*Rises from old rocking chair*

You know what we old timers do to youngins' that disobey

Anyways, I bet Ben will contact you real soon =D

lolololol
*Puts pipe in mouth*

Back in my young days we had this thing known and a letter, or "mail" as is was most commonly referred as xD

And you two plan to see each other in the summer when school is done right? That will be amazing. I'm excited for you haha


You should send him a letter lmao
Primitive communication is effective xD

Yeah I can see it being pretty awesome lol
Yet, I still don't long for the feeling, well, I do I little. More than before anyways xD

And it sounds like you are in a tough situation D=
Hope ben manages to contact you soon.


Oh and simply out of curiosity, why did you ask if I've ever been in love? lmao xD

I've actually never been deeply in love

It's like I'm unable to let a person get close to me. That or I just don't let myself get close to anyone
Not sure why, but oh well

So is your AiB doubles tourney still going to happen?

Brawl Samus Room.

I am him

Hahahahahahah

I'm so sorry to tell you this, but it doesn't look like I'll be able to properly create an ICs texture for you...

For some reason, my game freezes when I load a custom ICs texture, so I have no way of bug testing it. If you'd like, I could send you the texture anyway and you can see for yourself, but it's still in beta form and might not be what you're looking for.

Sorry again, man...

It's Barge! Oh my gosh! Hello! ^_^

Ah, I see....

Pink panther is pro.

Lol I took Bunny's Marf, and took some games off Cloudfox with my Falco.

I have a decent connekshun with them though. D=
