Welcome to Gaia! ::

people claim to be looking for love...they actually seek to bring passion to their lives

Did you ever study psychology or sociology Joe?

I am fortunate enough to know a few, actually I was the one who recomended this place to Dave and Raven.

and it is a better place because of it, that unfortunately is th downside to the internet although is give the oppurnity to interect with people from all over the world, exposing to ideals and cultures that you may have never experienced otherwise, it removes that personal touch that most people enjoy, I know I do, I love talking people face to face, becuase there are thing which can only be communicate through body language.



And shin dear, I think that Esmerlad already said yes to your offer, I put that in the previous post I believe.

No, I have never studied psychology or sociology. Was that meant as an (inoffensive) "you don't know what you're talking about"?. It's a sort of a paradox that I don't think that most people are worth knowing about anyway.

@Elias: Though there is a certain level of detachment, my character is a fair reflection of me, based on what I might do in certain situations. Even though the fantasy of it all makes it seem rather far off, everything written expresses something that the people behind the characters feel; to write passionately about something, one must have felt it, to a degree. Again, it just seems funny for me to 'love RP'. I'll stick with the blood and guts action and conversation.

The internet is so vast...which can be good, but I'm more likely to bump into people I...strongly dislike...here than anywhere else. I'm trying to seek out certain groups of people on gaia, but I have to go through a lot of people.

Actually Joe, I was going to suggest it.
You have an opinion, learn everyone elses, then kill them.

I am not Nelphean Nightblade, I am not Nelphean Brightsabre. BUt I am. With out me, they would not exist. So I can not say that I am not either , when I must be both.

Hate is a very strong force in my life...it seems more powerful, and at times, even feels better than love. I'm not a total bitter dirt psycho though. I just...feel hate more often than your average guy. The things that I hate though, are very specific. My lack of love is tied in with a belief of mine about humans.
As for your origins, I have no problem with that...to tell the truth, I do discriminate between races (and why not), but I wouldn't say that I'm a diehard racist. In the US, Mexicans are often viewed as drug-smuggling, border-crossing, dirty, lazy cutthroats. I myself do not agree with that; in fact, the people that I tend to hate the most are my own stock: Americans.

Anyway, perhaps I should study people by taking classes such as those...but that which I have seen has taught me much, and it would come as a surprise if my experiences, the best teacher there is, were contradicted. I understand human potential, and even that perhaps if I were living in another time and place, I would have nothing against the masses. But such as it is today, I am inclined to think that the trend is that people are worthy of my disapproval.
