In case you didn't know...[Part 2]
Continuing from my last post, i nearly destroyed my self, well at the very least the respect people and myself have for me, becuse of my journey to find something to fill the gap. So i turned to the internet. I guess i was thinking that if i extended my net wider, maby i could meet more people. it worked, i met so many people. i was able to get to know people in ways i never thought probable over the net. in some ways my real life and "net" life kind of melded, no i didnt get confused on what was real; my net life begain to complement my real one. for me it became a chain that renforced some of my friendships, for alot of them it was the icebreaker.
....i still wasnt fable to obtain what i wanted. i felt important, like my thoughts had weight to them and people wanted to hear them, when ever i was on the computer or on the phone. But as soon as i pressed the "end call" button, as soon as my computer shut down for the night, the lonlyness would return to me swiflty. Like an ocean filling my void, it matched it and left me overflowing...but with lonlyness.

I am a strong beliver that nothing in this world last forever especialy people, and if people cant live forever how can their relationships with one another? my point is: iv seen my fair shair of ends; that doesnt mean i have to like it.

i could say that for along time i was hiding under a vail of lies, so its only natural when i finaly show my true colors to people they might get angry. its happend more then a few times though...
my own falt.
i guess i feel like, everything i have to offer in a freindship, in a relationship of any sort, it wouldnt even hold their intrest. some might say that critizise myself too harshly and that i have alot to offer, infact had i said something in the first place, it would have been fine.
i dont think that would have been true, i think its becuse although they hated the fact that i lied....
they hated the truth i gave them even more. they hated it so much i dont think any of them would have let us have a relationship in the first place. honest.
i used to feel that i had to lie to befriend many, and i think to befriend some i actuly did and if i had not we would not have been friends, but...
i guess i came to a revelation, if i have to change things about my self, if i have to give people a pair of ruby colored glasses to see me, then that means they would not accept me for who i realy am. so im done with that, im done pretending just to make the moment together last longer, im done building our future with an unstable path of lies, im done looking and hopeing that i could get to know so-an-so if i feel like they wont even talk to me for who i realy am.
i am done.

Good.

Lying, no matter when, where, or how is the coward's tool. Life was meant to have conflict in it, sometimes a life will have more of conflict in it than of anything else. Avoiding it doesn't do a damn thing except prolong a bad situation and make it worse in the end for everyone. I'll admit I don't have a clue about most of what you were talking about. But I have been in the place where you feel you have nothing to offer anyone as a person. I've found that, even if we assume you're right about that much, it's your fault for staying that way. People can change. I know it. I've seen it. I've done it. I'm not the most likable person in the world. I'm not the greatest in social situations, to tell the truth. But if there is one thing I can tell you from my experience on this earth. If there is one lesson that the Almighty has hammered with since the day I was born, it's that the truth is always the best option. I don't care who you think you're hurting, or how scary the thing is that you think you're avoiding by lying. Lies do more damage to you and all you hold dear than anything else on this planet. It sounds like you've experienced this from what I've read. But...having dealt personally with the sins of lies and cowardice. I felt it necessary to reiterate the importance of truth.

The upshot to all this. Most people, will respect you for honesty. It IS a rare commodity in this world. They may disagree, they may not like you. But people respect a man that speaks plainly for all to know where he stands. Most people. Heh.

Anywho, I came on here to get a bead on your new character design. So....I'll get to work on that now. Though it may be a while before it's completed, don't expect results too quickly.

Take care, man.

And keep it real!
