EVERYTHING CHANGES (But not me)It always fascinates me how people change things that aren’t really supposed to be changed, for instance examine the sl profile. Its the first thing we do when we meet people, we read the profiles and for single girls like me, its a mandatory exploration to find out whether the man is available although that is something that never bothered me much.
I have never been one to be partnered in sl. It’s not that I couldn’t find a man, that is not my problem, it was finding one worthy to be in my box-literally.
Partnering for me always been a very troublesome process for me and I always got very claustrophobic if it got mentioned. Most will know what I mean because I was usually gone so fast there was sparks from my teleporting feet.
Why is it so necessary in sl? When two people get together in real life they don’t wear a placard to tell people around them, so why does it have to be that way in second life?
I have been thinking about it a lot this week and when I examined the sl profile and went to look at the “My Picks” section I burst out laughing. It doesn’t say tell everyone about your favourite "person" in second life, it says tell everyone about your favourite “places” in second life. We all do it though, even me. For me the sl profile has always been a bit of a battering tool. It’s a place where you can break a person’s heart with a few lines, so I have learned this week that a lot of people actually do take the whole profile and partnering thing very seriously. Maybe ill change my ways and settle down and then again maybe I won’t.
Ok, now that I have finished typing a random pile of crap, let me tell you what I have been up to. I was enjoying the company of a really nice guy but sadly he hasn’t been around sl as long as me so it was time for us to split. I found myself back to single girl normality and even though it wasn’t plastered all over my profile or this site, the IMs started almost immediately to offer me a shoulder to weep on, even though the male ho-bags (who for the time being shall remain nameless, one is partnered btw lol) where only looking to slide their hand up my skirt, while on slow dance 7.
I have decided that after my recent fun dating experience I am going to keep doing it because I learned so much and had forgotten a few things about men. I had forgotten just how fun it can be dating someone on the grid and so much had changed since I took myself of the market. Slow dance 7 has long been a favourite of mine, because of the cringe worthy dates I spent on it and I have always written about it a lot. I found out though that there is now slow dance 8 and 9- how fabulous!
The guy I was with, was the first guy I had been seeing since the role-playing playboy “forgot” to log in for our wedding back in July. I still maintain he done it just so he could pretend he was Mr Big from the Sex and the City Movie. /me rolls eyes, he isn’t and it kind of backfired in his face and I had to administer the mute button. Anyway, loads of people have asked me whatever happened to Nubis, well, he actually left sl. (lol, no really he did).
Well, Sl fate has always been kind of shitty to me, so imagine my shock and surprised when I saw the IM from a stranger. It kinda wasn’t the best time for the “I love you with all my heart and I am back to get you” IM and most people would tell me to be careful with IMs like that from strangers, but there is always someone you just know in sl no matter what the profile says. When your heart is tender, that is the last message you need to see on your screen.
What do I do? Do I keep looking for the special guy or has it been decided that I spend my sl with someone who is very bad for my sl-anity?
Most of my friends are men. They love and look after me and there was a lot of eye rolling tonight and a lot of “omg don’t you dare” being dished out, there was even a full scale public chat slanging match in the house, that had the neighbours peering over the fence to see what was going down . Sometimes I feel that you can’t change your path like you can change your profile.
Apart from struggling with matters of the heart I am still being stalked constantly by our crazy sociopaths from Insanedaily ,they are never out of my home and constantly breaking the TOS by asking for real life details of those close to me, on a regular basis. Seriously boys get a life! Anyone with any love for their sl would know that will get you a one way ticket to ban city, but then if you’re a narcissistic person you won’t see what you do wrong because narcissist's are never wrong (lol). So I guess eventually it will be a kinda Loose- Loose situation.
I was very disappointed to see Gregster Kidd getting a bit of a slapping because he is a really nice guy. Greg has sometimes annoyed me because he never took a side and he always remained friends with everyone. I realised though that sl is made up of a whole array of people and personalities and its a bit of a learning curve for those who are nice to everyone, because not everyone is nice. I mean look at me, I’m nice to a point but I am extremely honest and very to the point.
What has also saddened me is the amount of complete two faced ball licking spineless pricks I have come across. I had a convo with the owner of Hot and hung beach on the 28th of December. While having it I was cringing for him a bit, because he is quite spineless and was looking for a girl to fight for him. Needless to say I rolled my eyes and didn’t. I don’t know if he remembers it but I was surprised when I saw what happened to Greg and that he would have any part of it-no wait I am not surprised.
OK I have talked long enough, but I have a message for Frolic Mills who I recently shared a fun drunken late nice voice chat with. Fro I am not a good girl nor do I or will I ever pretend to be and I didn’t get reformed or change my ways ...... Mwah.
Lots of Love
