Lovequest Catie's Story

[Drawets Rednaxela]

For God's sake, never use pick-up lines that require the other person to say a particular thing.

Would you like a wormdo?

 

[Frank Rizzo]

Would you like a wormdo?

I'll bite:

What's a wormdo?

 

[Drawets Rednaxela]

What's a wormdo?

It wriggles on the ground.

 

[Le Bateleur]

Why did Catie need a fake ID?

Oh, this.

D'oooooooooh ho ho hoooooooooooo!

 

[JustSomeFella]

I must admit, the past week has been full of excellent content. I'm loving this and I hope we get to hear some audio from these dates.

 

[Scribbler]

Why did Catie need a fake ID?

Pure speculation here, but I'm guessing Chris demanded a picture of an ID to prove she wasn't a troll. That seems the most logical reason, but we are dealing with Chris...

 

[MrsFrizzle]

Which is pretty much guaranteeing zero dates with anyone who isn't a troll.

That sounds about right. The quality wasn't great according to Anna, but Chris would have satisfied with anything that conformed to his fantasy. She could have told him her last name was McLovin and he would have believed it.

On a side note, I'm glad to see Anna pulled out all the stops in keeping Chris away from Catie.

But the fact that he wants to meet immediately in person, and has taken to asking to see ID documents, surely supports him not wanting to fall for another false sweetheart? Whereas if he was wanting to latch on to any fantasy he'd lower his trust threshold rather than raise it?

He really does seem to feel hurt when the girlfriends turn out to be false.

Chris is wanting to minimize effort and optimize troll filtering. So he wants the most basic ID scrutiny that'll get him a girlfriend. If after this event with Catie, he decides that he fucked up this time by not paying enough attention to the ID, he'll be a bit more strict next time.

Also, Chris is indeed hurt, but hurt because he thought he had his bangmaid in the bag. It'll be better if he doesn't have trolls raising his hopes every so often. But still, regardless of the trolls, he's going to settle down into a long term life of depression because he's all alone.

He wants them to be real and he doesn't want to be trolled, so he's instituted security measures that aren't going to work if you don't know what you're doing. If he really wants to meet a non-troll, he's going to have to approach women himself on OkCupid instead of insisting they come to him first. Even if someone thinks he sounds good and is happy to meet after exchanging some emails or texts and feels he's not dangerous, the request for an ID is off-putting. Seems like a red flag right there of "Something's Not Right".

Maybe he got it from TV or from going to bars where they check your ID to make sure you're old enough to drink and he's trying the same thing but without being able to spot a fake ID, it's not going to work. I'm not sure what his end game is here. Not hard to photoshop a real ID good enough to pass inspection online.

Edit: Dang it, Marvin.

Yeah, Catie started it off perfectly normal in the, 'Let's get to know each other better and see if we can be friends" stage and Chris went right to deepest love and bangmaidery and sunk his own battleship, so to speak. If he'd gone at Catie's speed, it would have gone much much better.

 

[stack]

Yeah, completely agree he's gonna die alone. No need to make it worse by getting his hopes up every so often.

I apologise if I've been pissy recently. Learning that this was all done to Chris as some social experiment just hit me in the feels, somewhat.

His reality distortion field is so intense that he still seems to think it's all real. This might be the closest he ever gets to experience being in an actual relationship, as messed up as that sounds.

 

[Thomas the Tankchu]

This is what I call being a hero. Risking ones self towards a depraved and confused man, dealing through with the advances, and nearly being kissed by him as well. Not that this is the first time that happened in Christory...

Plus...

Chris wanted to spend an entire day together, go bra-shopping at Target with him

The evolution of Chris's dating ideals. From fancy wine and dining at the McDonalds, to bra shopping...*shutter*

 

[Flowers For Sonichu]

It's only a matter of time before Chris asks for a copy of fingerprints, family history up the great grandparents, blood type and sample of hair before he even considers a person future wife material.

Stool sample too, and don't ask why

 

[Male Idiot]

It does not really matter. No sane person would want to be with Chris. Not because he is poor, ugly, or special. Because he has a bad personality and bad hygene. That combo scares off everybody expect drunken hobos.

 

[BOLDYSPICY!]

Oh, right! One thing that jumped out at me---did Barb have really bad cavities, past tense? Or does she still have them? Because if this had taken place in September. . .I'm gonna have to go dig up the Facebook posts to see when Chris started bringing that up to determine if he really was using dental work as a pretense for more Lego money.

EDIT: Got it.

24 July 2014

Hey, all. My next shipment date is tomorrow, the 25th. Currently, it is a handful of autographed photos and one commission, which I will draw and color today.
If anyone else purchases a photo today, I can guarantee them to be shipped with the rest on the 25th. OR, y'all can buy one of my two featured framed pieces on their current listings below. THAT would Truly help my mother and the dental work of teeth replacement she really needs right now. The hundreds of dollars will benefit her and would really be appreciated. So Buy Today for Guaranteed Shipping Tomorrow on Friday the Today. Thank You.

2 August 2014

I just received a cute little plush Sonichu from a fan. It triggered the memory of the fire (it is not the sender's fault). Why? Because three fan presents were hanging on a wall in the bedroom upstairs. A bigger plush Sonichu with short arms and legs, big head, average body. A Sonichu face oil painting on fabric. And the Asperchu Medal in its small box.
To the up to three people who made those items, I am terribly sorry, but they were all lost in the fire. And I miss those three items now more than ever. I don't know who y'all are, but y'all know who you are.
Also, please help my family and I get through this month, and hopefully fix my mom's teeth, by buying my time to draw commissions for you, or better, buy my featured framed pieces (three more are going to be added next week).

3 August 2014

Please help us here. I am serious about it, plus my mother and I have bills to pay, and we need the money for real. Now, I even do not have money to ship my more recent orders. I did raise over two Gs last month, but that money was spent on bills, the printer ink cartridges, shipping all of the orders from the past month, some Lego, and food for my family. So, don't give me doubt about my honesty.
My mother seriously has cavities in her teeth, and I sincerely want to help pay for her required dental work. And we have bills to pay that the usual income just can not cover.

EDIT AGAIN, FUCK: According to Chris' Facebook, his first date with Catie was on August 31st. & between the July 24th posty & the August 3rd post, he reveals he bought a bunch of Lego so he could create Sonichu minifigs (to presumably sell). /le sigh.

I went and re-read Catie's text while sober. Holy Shit. I think about situations where me and my friends asked women out on first dates and what we did. We all made mistakes but most were just simply typical dumb-ass things a moron guy in his 20s would say or do, nothing major. This "first date" really is a whole new level of awkward, creepy and Autism. Would I have invited my now wife back to my parent's place on the first date?! No. And he showed a perspective mate a picture of her that he would practice kissing on.

Look, it's Chris, he's awkward, creepy and weird on a normal day. But this shit really elevates him to an entirely new level. Maybe he does need a dating education class as he absolutely no clue on how to take a girl out on a first date (and yes, even after a month on on-line interaction).

He wanted to buy her an iPhone on his plan so he could text/call her 24/7. Romantic! What a bargain, a new phone and Chris fucking calling you at all hours until your head explodes! Go to Kentucky for a family visit? 1500 new texts in three days!

No women I know, any of them, would deal with this shit for more than a day. He's going to die lonely. Even Russian Mail order brides won't work because they would divorce his ass once they got the Green Card. He couldn't even buy a wife (even if he could afford it).
