You're lucky she doesn't come on Gaia, eliminating the chances of her reading that statement, no? x3

Umm...yeah. Sorry I haven't posted here till now. I seriously don't know what's wrong with me. Heh. Okay. First pondering here.

Why is it that some people don't realize things even though they've been through the experience? But yet, others who have not been through what they have can think through the situation and its results, reaching a conclusion? Perhaps I'm not making myself clear. Let me give an example.

How can some gamblers lose millions and millions of money, forcing their family to suffer with them, selling their house and limiting their amount of money usage and still not realize that they should quit gambling? And yet, others without family members who gamble realize the consequences of being addicted to gambling? Worst yet, how can some gamblers think that they've done nothing wrong at all, even after they've have had to sell their house twice to pay off their debts?

Yes, this is related to me in real life. My uncle was the gambler I had mentioned. He believes that gambling is an entertainment. The money he lost, his family should pay because they owe it to him. His children and wife owe it to him after all the years he has taken care of them. Sold two houses. Put my aunt and cousin on medicine. Hits my other cousin. Now, my aunt is finally giving in to reason and getting a divorce. Still, he thinks there's no wrong in what he has done. He even tried to start an argument with my aunt when the moving guys helped move furniture out. To make her look bad. And to make sure that she didn't get more of the furniture and stuff than she should.

What are these people thinking? How can they see no wrong in this?


Edit: Thanks, Xeroxer, for making this thread. ^__^ I feel a bit better now that it's out.

To be honest, I don't have many friends of either sex. I only have like 3 or 4 good friends. A lot of girls like me just because I'm not a jerk, I guess. sweatdrop Many of them just act nice to me or invite me to their parties. sweatdrop

Pretty well. surprised I nearly forgot about that. My friend has been trying to introduce me to her. Though, he's just trying to introduce her to me as a friend. I told him to leave the rest to me. cool

A quick note on homophobia.

When I first came to High School, every seemed to think I was gay. They just thought I was, without ever talking directly to me, knowing anything about me, being a friend of any sort...they just assumed this. These types of things really piss me off. Why is it that one's sexual orientation has to directly corrolate to what they wear, or how they talk, or what they like to do? What I like to do in THE BEDROOM is totally different than what I'd do at a friend's house, or in school. Someone's sexual orientation doesn't make the person, it's the person who makes the sexual orientation. No one should be labelled something (and negatively, too) because of who they are, especially when you don't know them. The funniest thing is that I'm not even gay...except for Mozzy.

Another story: I went to a new school in grade 4, for the "gifted" program. I didn't know anyone there, and I made friends with everyone, over the five years that I was there. I'd like to think that I was a respectable student: I had lots of friends, I got good marks, I liked my teachers, my teachers liked me, I was President of Student Council, I was involved in many extra-curricular activities...I was (and am) proud of who I am. It just so happens that one of the friends that I had for five years had a homophobic father. Let's call my friend Bob. wink

I met Bob in grade 4, and I've been good friends with him ever since. He's funny, nice, not a follower, thinks for himself, intellectual, everything I'd look for in a friend. His father was my hockey coach. I played hockey up until two years ago, and I thought of this man to be a nice man, and we were friendly. I found out last year that this man, Mario, thinks that I'm gay. Okay, I understand. You think that, that's okay, but I'm not. Yet he continues to think this..."Morgan's lying...when will he come out, Bob?" He's even gone to far to ask my friends at school about me.

"So...is Morgan going out with anyone?"

"Yeah, he asked someone out, actually."

"Who is he?"

"...actually, I think it's a 'she.'"

"I highly doubt that!"

Why won't this man let it go? Every month, I find out that he's telling everyone that I'm gay. I used to think of this man as a family friend, but now he's an a*****e. Does a forty-something year old man have nothing better to do than spread rumours about a 14-year old boy whom he THINKS to be gay? How much more homophobic can someone get? What if I WAS gay? Is that wrong?

People can really piss me off, sometimes.

AHMGD. YOU R SO COOL. People like that seriously piss me off, which means that most of the school population pisses me off. If one person makes a slightest move of being different, they're automatically labelled as something they might not be.

Being gay is essentially not bad. it's only bad because people MAKE it bad. It's the true "vicious cycle." The ideals of what being "gay" is keep circulating and keep entering the mindset that you have to be some airhead, flirtatious guy to be gay and it's bad because it's not manly? i dont' know how the i-hate-gays mindset works. It's not fair to write people off automatically. and now i'm rambling.



IN SHORT- being a homophobic is stupid.

Haha, even if she did. She already knows such an insult. It's her infamous saying that really pisses me off: I'm the adult, you're the child.


That reallly is degrading and disgusting of her

Aww! That's horrible! >__< I mean, most people are pretty good with it. They don't really care how you're sexually oriented. That's really reassuring. But of course, there will always be those who oppose it, unfortunately. I totally agree with you. People should not be judged by anything other than being themselves. What I mean is, how their personality is, not what's on the outside or what they prefer.

Wow, Spamster. You sound so smart. x3 (Not that you aren't. D; ) We've never had that Student Council thingy over here. >__<

You know what? I think "Bob"'s father only did that because he felt insecure. Yes, I know it's wrong. But perhaps that was the reason he did what he did. Because he was homosexual, he sought for another that had the same orientation, so he wouldn't feel alone and awkward. That's really sad, actually. I would've expected better from adults. Especially from a coach who is supposed to have good social skills to have good relations with their students. But, I guess you shouldn't expect anything from anybody.

Either way, I feel really sorry for you. I hope it's resolved soon. ^__^

Ouch. Seriously? Well, it really depends on the tone she says it in, right? If it was for fun, like teasing you, that's alright. But if she really meant it, then yeah. Not all adults make the best choices. And just because you're the child, doesn't mean you can't think for yourself and perhaps even make decisions better than the adults. And hey, we're all growing up. We won't be children for long. wink

Does that make sense to anyone? I made it up a few years to go. Never useful to me since I look with both eyes and never with one with no judgement heart.

Does anyone wonder why a heart is a symbol of love?

I've come to the conclusion that it represents love because of it's color and that you need it in order to live (even though I would gladly deny it, but that's me being ignorant).

So many people are down against love. I am most of them, but my reason justifies it more than most people. These people are just against love because they don't want to open up to pain of their lonliness. Yes, I admit, sometimes... I just want arms to wrap my shattered mind and my tarnished heart and hold me 'till I go numb in love.

Recently, I think I found a key to a girl's heart. I've never tested it except for online (the rejection or reaction have a less effect on me). You have to find the a way to turn a woman's insecurity into a compliment and the truth.

Sounds hard, eh? Haha, I know. I only have two examples:

1. God, I'm fat.

"Well, that's terrific. More of you to love"

Haha, that worked like a charm and I can't say it can't work. Except not all girls think they're fat. Most of them like the attention.

"I love you"

- Well, I don't

- That's o.k. I have enough for both of us.

Fine, maybe that one won't work. But someone did a similiar trick to me and a smile escaped from my melancholy personality.
