Buckwheat Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 So I had a looooooooong phone talk with the supernatural entity today, with whom I cut contact for a few months and then started chatting with some time ago. It made so much fun talking to him again. He is sorry for some things he said and that happened and he misses me still and so on. What's a girl to do?

Well do you think there’s any perspective for the relationship if you decide to reignite it? It’s quite natural to still miss someone after a couple months if you’ve been together for two(?) years. I would know, I wasn’t over my first love for like two or three years. (Not that that’s an example to follow, or even remotely natural, but let’s say I was young and stupid so it’s okay) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not that that’s an example to follow, or even remotely natural, but let’s say I was young and stupid so it’s okay) That is the problem ... if we do it, we are at the same place we were before. That is, stupid long distance with no future unless one of us (realistically, me) were to move to another country. And yes, I was wondering about time too ... I mean, he said he still thought about me, but a few months ... that is still natural and not out of the ordinary, right? I managed quite fine actually, after the first few upset days, I was relatively quick to pick myself up, if I may say so, and did not have second thoughts for a while. But I really started missing him much more when I was in Germany. I never had such a young and stupid phase. Now I am paying for it with an old and stupid phase. I did not really have a silly horny teenager phase. Instead, I had a phase at the age of 24-25 when I giggled at every stupid mention of sex (and if there was no mention of anything sexual, I made it up, like a proverbial 13-year-old boy). So ... time to go make up for all the mistakes I didn't make ten years ago? 16 minutes ago, felice said: Stick to being friends.

And yes, we experienced that with you (the giddy 13 year old jokes, I mean ) 10 years ago... I was a baby. Nah. I had my young and stupid phase between 18-21. As for the mistakes, the ones you didn’t make do not necessarily need to be made up for. There is probably a reason you didn’t make them so I wouldn’t say it’s a necessity to go back to do so. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Rhae, why do you need to be so smart and reasonable now? I want to do the stupid thing and invite him over and have him sleep in my bed ... oh yikes, here goes the 13-year-old phase again. No but really, the talking ... and walking around exploring places ... and hanging at his place ... We agreed to continue doing our thing for as long as it was fun to do it. But we did not.

It’s easy to be reasonable when We’re looking at a situation from the outside. I’m not reasonable when it comes to my own shit. Well it’s your decision. My opinion is that these things don’t work out for the best, but it’s your decision to take the trial and error route, maybe win and definitely learn something. So you do you.

Understood. I'm pretty ecumenical with animals* - like them all, but in terms of living with them, cats are the best fit for me. *my younger sis who is a lot like me, has ducks, turkeys, chickens, guinea fowl, pigs, sheep and cats - and I'm probably missing somebody.

Can't wait. Oh man am I jealous! Life for me started with moving away from home - and I fell flat on my face - I flunked out of college. But in other ways never looked back. This will hopefully be a glorious and wonderful, hectic time in your life - GOOD LUCK!!! On 8/3/2018 at 9:48 AM, Buckwheat said: Aaaand ... honestly, I don't really think about it?

honeyed chicken Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I've been watching the show (Game of Thrones) again all the way through (I'll need to buy s.7 to finish, but have the first six already). It is quite an impressive show. The locations, the cast, the overall quality of acting and filming - there's so much to like. And of course, the story isn't bad either. I used to really fume about the things D&D chose to leave out and the extraneous stuff they put in . . . I'm largely over that. Wonder where you guys are at with the show - how you feel about it these days (other than the long wait, which no one likes)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also a lot of the extraneous stuff was bullshit (not all, adaptations do have to differ somewhat,) but it's mostly gone now, because they don't have time to focus on anything that's not directly related to the end goal. There's silliness, that whole episode North of the wall for instance, where Gendry is apparently the best long distance runner of all time and the dragons would have to be supersonic. But it really doesn't bother me that much. The really weird thing is I don't think I'm all that fussed about the books anymore. I'll read them when they come out, but I don't mind the wait. When I first read them they were incredible, but upon rereading them... they're just not as good as I remember. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I was always into SFF from as far back as I remember, and I read stuff like Hobb's Six Duchies books before I read aGOT but reading asoiaf brought me here and I found a whole host of other stuff I like via recommendations.

I’m currently in the stage of passive hatred. There’s no shitty new episodes to watch currently and no book to read so I’m just quietly resenting everything GOT related (except for Jason Momoa and Emilia Clarke’s Instagram pictures). I’m sure once the final season is out and the story gets a long awaited closure, I’ll rewatch it, form an objective opinion of the whole, appreciate the good parts, be thankful for having such a great story in my life for almost a decade and move on. I’m quite sure I’ll never read the books (if they ever come out, which I don’t think they will), half because I’ll already have had closure and half on principle. 7 hours ago, The EnglishBear said: MULAN!
