Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm sure you could, but you don't need to. lol

It doesn't really matter, does it? I was just voicing my opinion is all. Normally when I see "Jesse" it's in reference to a boy. Like my friend, Jesse. He's a really awesome guy. Yes I'm aware "Jesse" can be a unisex name, but it still looks weird. Like when you name a dude "Ashley". I just find it strange is all.

Well again, what you think doesn't really matter. When it comes down to it, every person has their own views on what they look like and what others look like. I think I'm a terrible looking Asian dude. But one of my now close friends said when she first saw me and befriended me, it was because she thinks I'm cute. She still does think that, even with her having a boyfriend. So my point is that even if you think you're not very attractive, I bet to someone out there you are. And he'll remind you of that every day that he's with you. :3

You see, I don't have any reason to be listening to a snot-nosed underage brat. xD So your argument is rendered invalid. As a matter of fact, it's because I'm older that I have more experiences than you still and have more things to tell about my life. But we've both experienced life in our own ways, so we could learn from each other. Either way, your age has no influence over my actions. lol

Well of course they go for their mom! Isn't that the point of it all? I said they like moms and sisters more. lol And it's a dad's duty to put the fear of ever living god in their children. xD That's just how a dad has to be. My dad certainly could make me afraid for my life, but it never meant that I didn't love the man. And he never really hurt me aside from when I was spanked or whatever. lol

And you really need to set him straight about the girlfriend thing. It might be cute now, but if it continues to grow it could turn into a psychological disorder where you brother thinks it's okay to have feelings towards his own sibling. Though I'm no expert in that field, by all means. I mean, I'm not saying drop everything and set him straight because it's urgent! I'm just saying is all. Especially when he gets old enough where people will tease him constantly about that kind of stuff in school and such. That won't be any fun.

Hate her? I wanted her! xD She had a dog! I prayed at nights hoping they would get married so I could have the dog that she brought with her. LOL Honestly, I don't think I noticed my biological mom was gone. I have no memories of her nor any memories of that incident. xD I have no idea where she is or if she's even alive. My step-mom is the greatest! She's taught me so many values and ideals and even taught me how to cook. I am the way I am today because of her and I could never thank her enough. As a matter of fact, when I talk to her or speak about her, I call her "Mom". Because that's what she is to me. It takes a lot more than giving birth to a child to earn that title of "Mom" or "Dad". She was the one that raised and cared for me, she was the one watching me walk down that aisle for graduation, she is my mom.

I was just saying, it's a strange name.

Well she had a thing for Asian guys. And it was an anime convention. Sometimes you just gotta go for what you want when you're at something like that.

No, I don't really think that, it was a joke. And I've had plenty of experiences through my life, thank you. I've seen all types and been around lots of things. From here to Germany. So don't assume that I've had no real experiences in my life or that you've just had way more than me. Thanks.

What? No good? It was the most effective thing. Do you think being grounded did someone like me any good? Not at all! If you wanted to teach me a lesson you needed to be a little violent! Not like punch me in the face, but being spanked was a very effective method!

I was just saying! Freakin a'! You think I've never had experience with children? I may be an only child but it doesn't mean I don't know anything about kids! Don't talk down on me like I've never been around them or kids who have been growing up, thank you. That's kind of annoying...

Of course it is. A single dad in the military? He was in the field for weeks at a time. He even had to go to Korea for two years, and I couldn't follow him there. My step-mom took care of me in that time. Which is perfectly fine with me.

Sorry for my tone, but I feel like you're talking down on me like you're superior to me in some way. And I don't much appreciate that feeling.

No! Geeze girl, that's why I use emoticons like "xD" and such. It's supposed to let you know I'm just joking around. That's the kind of guy I am! I just laugh and say things acting superior to everyone as a joke. Because I am Robert, one of the most awesome guys to ever exist! And don't you forget it! ;D See, like that? I like to kid around a lot.

I don't know everything more than you. I understand you probably have lots more experience with kids than I do. Not only naturally as a girl, but also real physical experience. But I don't appreciate being treated like I don't understand or know anything. You may have had a rough life, and I may have had an easy going life, but it doesn't mean I've never learned any lessons through life or that I haven't obtained any kind of wisdom through my careful observations of those less fortunate around me. I may be a spoiled brat, but I am proving myself in this world... Or at least I'm trying to.

Nah, it's okay. My dad was there for my high school graduation and my 18th birthday. So I am happy about that. Plus he's retired now and I get to spend lots more time around him now.

It's cool. I was just annoyed is all. I felt like you were trying to be better than me, because you thought I was seriously suggesting that I'm better than YOU. I honestly don't think I'm better than anyone in this world. Every human has their own strengths and weaknesses. But it's how we bond together that the true strength of humans is found. If one of us thinks they're better than the others, then they will eventually falter. We all have to work together if we want to progress and make it anywhere. We all have to rely not only on ourselves, but on the strength and courage of those closest to us as well.

Sarcasm is half of who I am. xD I usually never am serious except for a few times when I'm trying to actually be romantic with girl. And thanks.

My life has been pretty much a cakewalk for me, honestly. Things usually are simpler for me though. But thanks for the vote of confidence anyway.

Yeah, I don't blame him. lol Of course I missed him, but I wasn't about to cry over having him gone for so long. I was the man of the house when he left, meaning I had to be strong in his absence. And my step-mom and I got along just fine.

Look up to me? I'm not exactly sure I'm the type of role model anybody needs to look up to. lol I mean, I am doing pretty well for myself. So... It's not like I'm a terrible person. But I think I'm kind of an average guy living a semi-average life. I'm not like famous or anything.

And well, blood is thicker than water. For when your friends fail you your family will always be there. So it's always good to get along with your family as best as you can. ^^

Yeah! I like being a jokester. x3 I love it lots. Yeah!

It really does. And I wouldn't want a bad life for sure.

lol I don't know how good of a job I did. But I tried my best. Even though I was a brat to my mom a lot growing up and especially as a teenager.

lol I also am unsure as to whether I'd be a good dad or not. xD I can't imagine me and my own kids would get along too well.

Yeah. I have a few friends that if they left me I'd be heartbroken. It's so totally terrible. >.<

I joke about everything. You open a door, I walk through it. My friends do it too, though. They joke around with me because I like the smaller girls in anime (the lolis). So they turn around and see a girl in a stroller, point her out, and say "Hey, is she too old for you?" It's just all in fun. lol

Well then try not to have one~

I'm a lot better nowadays though, so yeah~

Yeah, and when they're young children and are so adorable still. x3

You're right! Except a couple of those are girls that I'd love to date. xD

xD Try not to say it too loud though. It's okay if you point it out to me or a couple of my close friends who are in on the joke, but most moms who don't know me aren't going to be too happy to hear that. LOL

It really is, isn't it? :3

And yeah, being a kid was great. But I didn't know the first thing about being romantic back then. I'd rather have a girl now than what I had back then~

You're right. WAAAAAY too fast. And they try to grow up even faster these days.

xD This is true. But hey, I got a girlfriend. : D I asked a girl out because she STRONGLY hinted at me that she liked me. lol
