Sigh...

Well, guys, he was probably just frustrated. And he is 19. I don't think that beating up on the guy is appropriate either, tho.

I've read too many stories on things happening in situations like this and I'd like to say that I wasn't a part of the reason something bad happened.

Just take your time) There are a few things you can do to make life better.. Heck, I'm still making improvements to my own life (back to school at age 35). But find the good in life and don't let the bad get you down.. It's like everything else, it will pass and tomorrow will be a new day.

So true. I truly don't see anything in this thread bashing him. We just weren't listening to his excuses. We were calling him out on his excuses and sometimes the truth sucks. I have no desire to bash him in any way. I just think he needs to take responsibility for his own actions. And not just him, I hold everyone, including MYSELF, to that same standard. Nothing comes free in this world. If you want something, you have to go out there and get it yourself.

I agree. But you're making steps toward improvement. I'm making steps toward improvement. I'm FAR from perfect. No one was beating him up here. They were just trying to make him realize that he is in charge of his life, not other people. He is in charge of how good or bad it's going to be from now on.

I've had rough times in my life. Very rough. And I chose not to date during those times, but rather wait until I had my life together and stability. I don't think it's fair to burden others with drama or problems that aren't theirs just because I'd like some companionship.

But that's just me. No one is perfect, but we can be stable and independent before we ask for another to share our life.

it doesn't matter now

he stomped off to his room in a snit and deactivated his profile

I know... I saw that. I waited to post again 'til it was all over. I saw this one coming, for once....

That's what I'm talking about... Be nice or be quiet.. no pun intended.. and I'm just joking so don't get in a snit yourself. Was just using an example..

ridiculous... I actually wanted him to see the light and understand what was being told to him. I would like to see him succeed. But apparently he doesn't want to.

well, like I said, he's 19. He is under the control of those terrible teenage hormones. There is no reasoning with hormones.

I will huff and I'll puff and I'll blow my profile down

your not a offical geek until you played a mmorpg for at least 10 years,!!!!!!!!

i got my offical geek card two years ago,!!!




let's get a level 6 circle, get your pots petals trap box's repair your armor, weapons, mages get a dismounter dismounters, get a group of mages, we need some necro's to hold the bridge, need a essance of winder, let's go guys im gonna lead this battle, meet at my castle,there already on the third side,

What about 2 MMO's for a total of 11 yrs.? does that count?

labels

hhhmmmmm

don't do 'em

ya that's a pretty long time tooo,

EQ? Necro was bad@$$ pvp class! and SK! I am not a shame with death touch all those poor souls

necro with 4/6 casting, with orny, 40lmc 18 mana regen all 70's across the board with 75 energy o ya it was the baddest template,

especially when you took resist off and used a trap box and used ninjusta, with a deathstrike

corpse skin, exp fs painspike painspike deathstrike, it was over if you survied that maybe a harm or to or a fireball it was over,

i quit when they nerfed all my chars, i let my castle fall and everything, haven't turned my icq on in months,

turned my 9 meg connection down to a 6 i played pacific (west coast server) im east coast, had to roll with that 9 meg, turn on the win speeder, cheatengine, and floated like a boat i was one of the fastest on the server,

i do kinda miss it, but, then again i don't,

Im a network technician and have owned my own business for 6 years, I make a very good living and I look alright, when i tell a girl what I do for a living their eyes kinda glaze over and thats about it lol The moral and point of my story is if your gonna look nerdy, do a nerdy job and get paid alot to do it, when you get older the ladies love a guy who have a good job makes them feel secure.

nerdy/geeky chicks rule

I'm a tekkie myself.
It's a good trade, pays well, it's easy for me, and I'm friggin good at it.
Just not something I brag to the ladies about.

I'm more of a music nerd;
the original reason I got into computers in the first place.
I'd be recording bands for a living if there was more of a need for that here.

Get your PI license. Tell women that you are licensed PI. You aren't lying...you really are licensed. So what if you've never taken a case and you run CAT-5 / configure routers for a living?

I was watching a PI show last night and called my friend to tell her we are getting our PI licenses together. It's only $400 (in Ohio) for the license and the test and you get $375 back if you fail.
