Ok, you've elicited a response from me. Your ignorance is too overboard to ignore.

First of all, thanks for insulting everything we have to say in .., that's really nice of you. Dalen said it best, that's real shit. When you insult what we write in .., you're insulting our lives. Thanks, that's real fucking mature.

Second, I'm sorry no one comes running to you all the time. People rarely come running to me. I'm usually the one asking people if they want to hang out. I'm usually the one starting the conversations. If you want people to talk to you, then talk to them first. It doesn't matter who starts a conversation as long as the conversation is had. If you look at it that way all the time, you're gonna be a very sad person.
You might say "I always post threads and no one replies!" Either we've got little or nothing to say, or we don't care. The post I remember the most from you are those about some app or game you're developing. I never post because I'm too lazy to download the game and try it out. That's just my reason. Everyone else has their own reason, maybe the same, maybe not. Really though, if you look at it that way, then again, you're gonna be a really sad person.

Third, I'm tired of this "the community is broken, let's fix it" mentality. The community is what the community is. Everyone uses the community in their own way. There is no one appropriate way to use this place. I mainly post in .., sometimes in funny convos, and that's about it. Others post in the Minecraft thread and other places. Point is, if the community feels broken to you, it's probably because you don't fit in, or you haven't found the right place to fit in. Maybe this isn't the right place for you.

Lastly, you feel insulted that we don't let you freely express your opinion? It's pretty tough to have a respectable opinion after having insulted us. You can't just say what we write in .. is bullshit and get away with having a voice, let alone an opinion.

I'm sorry you think this place is a shitty place, I really am. I wish everyone thought this place was great, but unfortunately it's not perfect for everyone. I have a strong feeling that if you think this community's gone to shit, it's simply because the community isn't tailor made for you.

Point is, if the community feels broken to you, it's probably because you don't fit in, or you haven't found the right place to fit in. Maybe this isn't the right place for you.

That's pretty fucked up in itself.
A relationship should build itself upon trust. If you truly care for the person, and that feeling is mutual, one shouldn't have to worry about one cheating on another.

At a point in time, i really thought she was the one. I made a lot of promises, yeah. Some I made because I knew that if I didn't, she would accuse me of not being as committed as her. It was more like "i feel this way, you do too, don't you?", and then I would agree. If I didn't, our relationship would be in jeopardy. Betsy seems to feel that what I did here was justified, I was avoiding trouble. As for the ring, i felt like that at one point. I started feeling less strongly about that as time went on. When i told her I wasn't feeling as strongly anymore, she flipped a fucking shit. If something is wrong with our relationship, instead of working to fix it, she blames it on me and ignores it until it goes away. I would prefer to skip that. Yeah, i fucked up by promising things. I guess all it did was extend the inevitable.

This is why i'm keeping in contact with everybody who we mutually know. I'm trying to assert my side of the story so that way it stays fair and balanced. Unfortunately, she's pulling a fox news right now and fucking with people's viewpoints. All I want to do is move on and still keep all of you guys as friends. I'd like to have more summer parties this summer, and hang out with everyone. Preferably without rox hating on me.

Just to add another fun little detail in there, rox didn't want me talking to three of my female friends, one being betsy. Rox was afraid that i was going to cheat on her with them. We made a trade of sorts, I wasn't allowed to talk to betsy, and rox wasn't allowed to talk to either andy or derek, i don't remember which. Either way, she broke it, because she's talked to both since. Rox eventually let up on her "don't talk to betsy" thing, but yeah.

. The getting married thing? I always carefully responded with "well, that's the plan".

What is she doing?
