It's proof that all of this is a misunderstanding of biblical proportions. That's what I've said since Day Zero.

So, we're bringing in religion now? Keep this in mind, you're going to regret this move in a moment.

Even the initial journal itself constantly hits the nail on the head. Still, my wording has failed spectacularly in averting unintended sexualization. I was aware of this even when I wrote it.

It's not just your journal, you proudly will talk about this kind of sexual shit everywhere. We have the logs. We have the recordings. We have the screenshots.

The wording was not unintentional. You're just being called out on it and you can not bring yourself to admit it was wrong. Your massive, self-damaging ego prevents you from doing so.

The irony here? That just makes you no different than most of the others on this board of whom we discuss at length, because you have the same kind of problem as they do:

You think you don't have to answer to anybody, the fact you now must do so is incomprehensible because you can't ignore us. We won't go away no matter how hard you try, and it's because you refuse to consider yourself the one at fault.

You said earlier that you were working hard to achieve your fantasies, right? I'm betting one of those fantasies is seeing this site community get off your ass. At this rate, it's never happening. All because you will not listen.

That is true. To me, I have nothing to be sorry for. I've said a few times, while I have learned some key lessons (such as reminding me of THE Golden Rule), I like me as I am; and my quirks are nothing to be ashamed of. The rest is misunderstanding and personality clash.

Okay, since you wanted to bring the religion into this...you outright jsut admitted you are guilty of the Deadly Sin of Pride.

You have no honor now, Knight, because knights do not sin as you have just confessed.

And, remember when I said I don't like feeling dumb at work? I said I don't like not having all the answers? I did not "cover my ass" about that, right?
Click to expand...
No.

You fucking quit instead.

You didn't cover your ass, you avoided the problem entirely.

Yeah, sure dude, alright. That's totally why we have a sub-forum about you. :roll:

Do you mean carnivore? Meatarian isn't a word. Humans can't survive off of just meat. If you try to do that, you'll eventually develop vitamin deficiencies, constipation, scurvy and other unpleasant ailments. A meat-only diet will kill you.
 
Damn. Golden Knight you on some freaky stuff through the leaked logs. You might just need a special lady from backpages to calm down your autism. I might be able to oblige. AUGH YEAH
 
The Golden Knight said:
You're damn right! That hurt, but this time, it's for a good reason. It's because I had nothing else to talk about, although truth be told...You do expose a point about how self-centered I seem. What do I do about this?! My brain is in the scrambler.

To quote a wise woman from my distant past, "If you have to ask, you'll never know."

Jay, you have to care. You have to care about someone who isn't you. You have to be honestly, emotionally invested in someone else, in their ideas, opinions, likes, dislikes, hopes, dreams, etc. Even if you don't agree with their ideas, and even if you don't like their preferences, that fact that it's important to them makes it important to you, because you care about them as a person.

This is called empathy. It's natural, it's universal to the human condition, and it isn't something that healthy people ever struggle with. Some types of people who do struggle with feeling empathy include people on the autism spectrum (though not always), people with personality disorders, and sociopaths. For these issues, the only real help you can get is from a trained psychiatric professional. Therapists study for years to help people overcome these sorts of issues, and if you stick with them and trust the process, you will get better and develop a healthy, robust sense of emotional well-being, and your life will be richer for it.

In either case, I don't think that you should be in a relationship at this time, at least not until after you've sought treatment. Right now, the risk for Amanda being used and hurt by you, however unknowingly, is too high for my liking.

Sorry I have trouble communicating empathy over the Internet.
 
Still lurking, but Jay:

I'm in the US and my boyfriend is in the UK so your whole situation is intimately familiar to me. We've visited each other a few times. It's fucking expensive and I don't recommend taking a trip like that unless you're certain you want to be over for at least a few weeks. In addition to the money for plane tickets you have to worry about food, passports, transportation, accommodations (could you even stay with them or do you need a hotel), all kinds of shit.

It took almost eight years of knowing each other and three years of that spent dating before we actually tried meeting. Furthermore it takes a lot of maturity to travel internationally by yourself for many reasons. Jay, you are nowhere NEAR ready. Maybe someday, but as for right now, NO.

You have to CHANGE first. You have to grow up. You have to remove yourself from your fantasy world and step outside of your comfort zone and take an actual RISK.

The fact is, at the moment, you need to change in some way. You are unwilling to change, but if you ever want to do anything you say you do, whether it's getting famous or visiting a long distance girlfriend, you have to really work for it, reflect on what you're doing. If you're sitting in one place doing nothing, your chair won't magically start flying you anywhere you want to go, no one is going to give you a medal for half-assing everything.

Instead of saying you WILL do things, or you MIGHT do things, just DO THEM.

I knew about you LONG before this place ever did, years ago, and you've changed since I last talked to you. Yes, you have. You got worse. If you don't realize that right now and try to change for the better, you will only continue to get worse. Eventually you're going to hit rock bottom and your mom, your 'friends', they won't be there anymore to lean on. You can't imagine yourself at that point but we can, because we see it all the time on this very forum.

Your current attitude is what rapists, murderers, and domestic abusers think. "I think my way is fine, and I don't have to change even if other people say I'm doing something wrong." You are.

That's a bit of an understatement dude. There's a reason you typically get billed as a psychopath around here. We all remember that you remarked that you wished you could act more violently and that you resented the law for restraining you from doing so.
 
Well, this is a shame. Looked like you were maybe gonna turn a corner there, Jay. Oh well.

I'm a Republican. Most of my friends are Democrats.

This isn't a matter of communication. It's a matter of ability. You don't care about people. The only time that people enter your mind is in relation to yourself. That's why you call them NPCs; not because you're "the hero," but because you are literally incapable of regarding them as actual, autonomous human beings. You've made this much patently obvious. This is unhealthy, Jay, and if left untreated, you will continue to use and hurt the people around you, whether you realize it or not.

For your own sake, please seek help.
 
Hey Jay, you ever see The Dark Crystal?

I don't know if your thread title was intended as a reference to it or not but I keep thinking of it every time I see this thread title pop up in my alerts.

Wait, hold on, I just read that again and something dawned on me. Do you seriously mean to tell me that you would ostracize another person because they exclusively eat vegetables? Based on that alone? That seems hypocritical of you to say. By that standard, people should be able to ostracize you for eating only meat.

Christ, no wonder you don't have any friends. Are you always this hostile and condescending to other people for petty things like this?

kill yourself so i can close this shitty subforum you boring sperg

That's what needs to happen - I still can't believe all of this conversation has happened in one day - over something that we can't really resolve. In the end, only Jay has the power to end this - just shutting this forum down won't be the ultimate end of this crap (neither), even if just IMHO, too.

Though I think telling this guy to kill himself is a bit harsh, Null - I just want him to go away and stop treating us like we owe him something we don't need to be giving him. That thing being attention.
