Eurgh. Once I'm in love, I commit a great deal. That hasn't worked out all that well every time. But if there's a real relationship, I'm commited to that relationship. I had only one relationship where that wasn't the case and it was just really really bad. But I tend to be in it for the long run, really. Relationshps end for whatever reason, true. Sometimes it's a good reason and sometimes it isn't, but I never want it to be "I was never that into you in the first place".
And there's progression to relationships, of course. I'm nt going to go "Oh I love you let's get married!" Gag me. It's more "I love you so let's make this really work for as long as we can." And maybe someday get handfasted and/or move in together and stuff.

OK, I am on here every day, basically. I can get on at work or home and do because it gets boring and lonely to be up all night. Even with that kind of time on my hands I don't think I could maintain 19 different personas. Even having two different e-mails is sometimes a drag. Who could actually maintain not only 19 different accounts, but give them all different personas and keep them straight? I think this kind of claim is another plea for attention, and complete
.Maybe I'm wrong, maybe there really is someone who can devote ALL their energy to doing something like this and enjoy it, but I can't see it. Even in my stay-up-all-night life I wouldn't have the time, and a socially inept 15 year old, as postulated, would presumedly have some commitments to keep. School, parents, that kind of thing.
I don't understand people who live to cause chaos. I think it's that more than attention-seeking. I mean everyone wants attention sometimes, and sometimes (like at twelve or younger) any attention will do as long as it's attention. But really, positive is better than negative. These trollish types seem to just love to stir things up and sew dischord. It's like they find it entertaining as much as a way to get attention.
I should stop ranting about it. It's just giving them what they want. I was just thinking about it and... ARG! I wanna flush them all away!

Urgh, no comment on the River### issue... can't say I understand trolls.
Btw, Rose, I must complement you on your beliefs there: I think western culture has something of an obsession with marriage, and that once married, everything is different, etc. I think marriage should be something you do as a last resort, after doing the other stuff, like living together. I think that was mentioned earlier, that some folk just cant live together in peace. Anyhoo, I think marriage should be done only after both parties are totally totally sure, and I only need to look at the divorce rate to see that often that isnt the case.

werrrl, if anyone could keep 19 accounts in order, keep seperate persona's and make sense of it all, it'd be an autist, but then, could just be an attention seeking troll. the great mysteries of our times.
anyway, saw a film last night that reminded me of a topic in here a while back, about whether you could trust someone after they'd cheated, s'called 'this years love' (and it's very british, not hollywood british, actual british) which has an interesting take on how someone might come to forgive being cheated on, worth a look-see ^^

Neko! Another Kim Harrison fan! Shiny!
Jenks is really cute for a six inch tall guy...
Did I say that out loud?

*is very confused* Okay, you're gonna have to explain that six inch tall guy reference to me, cuz all that's coming to mind is a dirty joke about a very small pianist.

*blinks* Nope, Jenks is damn sexy when he's six feet tall. (Jenks is a pixy, DTH.)
*claps hands to mouth* I shouldn't say stuff that's in Fistful of Charms ...'less you read it. 
I'd like a Jenks (or Mattalia, or one of their kids) as my own personal back-up. Don't you?

OK - can't stay for long tonight - but cannot ignore my shiney friends either 
About that River with the Reaver personality thing - I just totally ignored and didn't even read the posts... must say though I actually feel sorry for someone that desperate for attention. I'd say young - that came accross, immature, clueless, and pointless in their comments...(until I stopped reading them) but I still feel sorry for them. Isn't there someone in the flesh that they can talk to? Someone who notices the cries for help and can give counciling/support/find a productive outlet?
We are a family here at FFF.net - but there is a degree of anonymity with any internet forum... so why seek attention when you are anonymous... very, very sad, methinks... 
I don't know what happened with Guy - but I love him so it he's just lurking - come and say hello Guy! Don't leave us coz we love you HEAPS!!!
I also want to say that I found everone's 9/11 experiences deeply personal and yet something we felt we connected with others on! I love you all and feel closer than ever to you - you all rock!
And I don't think I like the idea of my own personal pixie... whether 6" or 6'... I'd rather have my own personal Jayne-Bot 
... and there I go - bring down the tone to one of droolworthiness again... 
Mwaaah - Magdalena x x x"I love my Captain!"

There's nothing wrong with a droolworthiness tone, in my book. This is why we come here, for intellectual stimulation and because most of the Serenity crew are fantastically good looking
thread hijack! - Magdalena, your birthday banners are ready. I've done two up for you to choose from, though they're both pretty similar. Give me a shout if you want something else instead.
