"Order" is such a misleading word. For us, it usually means PIZZA PARTY WOOHOO!

See most of the people I know who I consider friends are online. There was this one guy we were thinking about going deeper, one of his friends told me how he was lying about working, and that made me wonder what else he was lying about. When I confronted him about it, it ended badly. I know it was probably best, but why do I still feel bad? Can anyone help?

EDIT : Thanks guys, I still feel a little bad but I'm doing much better.

...is that an offense at men in general or at the R-tards specifically?

then again, I could care less. I dislike most of the guys in my school...which leads them to saying I'm gay...so I laugh at them because they are the aforemented R-tards.

taking sides against my own gender...am I a traitor?


...sorry 'bout that rant...my advice, take all online relationships with a grain of salt. Remember that anybody you meet, no matter how nice, could be a greasy 40-year old dickwad living in his parent's garage.

^ I wouldn't say assume the worst about people on the internet. I was actually talking with Nii about this the other day and we agreed that stereotyping like that shows a limite dunderstanding of the way the internet works. If you avoid certain places where you could end up a target it's easy not to run into the creepos. It IS easy to lie on the internet, but from my experience the liars on the internet are the liars in real life. There's a much finer line between internet life and real life in this way than you might think.



However, if there is an issue of trust there I think you were right to end it. You cannot possibly consider "going deeper" with a person who's obviously deceiving you. You made the right choice, and time will heal any wounds left behind.

And this is one reason I don't want to get into a long distance relationship. Over an hour or across state borders I don't go for. It's too easy TO lie. Call it lack of trust or lack of self confidence if you want. Other reason, for me atleast, is that I need physical contact. A hug once a week at least unless they're off on a trip.

Anyways, you made the right call. Don't let it bug you too much though.



Also, we're all guilty of sticking to stereotypes, but if we can realise we do that we can move on and become better people ^.^
