I beg for help! My first romantic night was a disaster! (read) I need tips for 2nd

Enlighten me, sir. What about my arguement is illogical? Other than that trying to reason with you is arguably illogical in and of itself?

Because you had the balls to 'fess up.

Pep (Meanwhile others are still deluding themselves.)

There is little point in me explaining;you would probably have difficulty understanding . . .

Pep ( . . . given your inability to spell 'argument' correctly despite it appearing in the line above that where you typed it. )

Did you understand the word? If so, your comment is petty. If not, your intellect is pathetic (which it may be regardless of your understanding). Now, have you got anything other than a spelling error, or are you just spouting hot air as usual?

I was foolishly hoping that Pep would post what he claims to be wrong with my argument, which would , hopefully relate at least in some way to the thread topic and thus keep us on the rails... at least that is the theory.

Question is, is the theory valid? *gets popcorn and sits back to watch and find out*

... the broken and bleeding bodies of his myriad victims littered the field, and choked the swollen stream, which ran crimson with his bloody offerings to VENGEANCE!!!!

If your own intellect can not carry the spelling (it was NOT a typo!) for ten seconds when typing then I would not expect you to be able to carry any sort of an understanding of a logical argument for the length of time necessary to explain it.

Pep (Tell me you are an ESLer and plead clemency perhaps?)

Lol, you are funny. You should at least have the guts to admit you don't have an answer other than more complaints about a common spelling error .

You are even going on about it not being a typo, despite my not claiming it to have been such, yet chide others on matters of communication?

And now are accusing me of being an ESLer too? ROFL, based on your logic, nigh every English speaker must have learned some other language first, since it is pretty safe to say that all or virtually all of them have had at least one spelling error in their lives .

And yes, I realize you are derailing this thread further, but you are so amusing in your manner of doing so that I don't mind playing along... at least for a bit.

The thread got derailed when several people failed to comprehend the OP's post, and made the error of suggesting that it was I that was mistaken.

Pep (Your own antagonistic interpretation being one of the wilder ones. )

PS I wasn't accusing you of anything; just offering you an opportunity to claim that it was not genuine illiteracy.

I am pretty sure you misunderstood me, though. For one thing, I never misunderstood the OP. I understood that he was the one getting the IM's.

I tried to point out that despite that, the IM's still related to the girlfriend and that therefore talking to her about them was a good idea. Unless you changed your opinion (or your earlier posts meant something completely different from what you said), you seemed against the idea of talking to the girlfriend about them.

In what way have I misunderstood your opinion or the OP's situation?

Edit: I notice at some point you edited your ealier post to say 'unless she mentions being harassed too', however you still neglect the possiblility that the person has harassed her in the past directly but this time was *only* doing so indirectly through the OP, in which case without telling her, she would never have known the harassment was continuing.

I didn't edit my post except to eliminate a duplicate 'r' in 'harassed'; are you perhaps beginning to understand my points and your inaccuracies now that you are rereading my posts . . .

Pep ( . . . and perhaps paying a little more attention to what is actually said, rather than what you think I might have said based on what other posters said I said? )

PS Congratulations, by the way, on inventing a completely new fantasy world for the OP and his date which has absolutely no basis in anything that the OP said; but then, anything is possible.

What have I invented? A possibility that you seem to completely discount for no appearant reason whatsoever?

The OP was receiving harassing IM's relating to his girlfriend. You appearantly knew why without any information from her. Either you are psychic (unlikely), were the one sending the IM's (also unlikely, but if you were, you are more of a git than I thought), or you haven't got a ruddy clue and are stuck in your own fantasy interpretation.

Spelling mistakes are distractions and you know it. Red herrings don't constitute valid arguements. Quit claiming misinterpretations and actually *demonstrate* them. If you can.

Regardless of how you changed that post whether just a spelling error or more substantial it does not change the fact you advised a lack of communications, and the objections to that are valid, no matter how much you may try to distract from any actual discussion.

I think it might be time for a break from this thread for a while gentlemen. There's an air of rattiness here that even I would be hard pressed to emulate.

If you must, then feel free to turn on me. I don't give a rats (as they say in the classics )

hehe, after what happened in the third page of this thread, I was scared of something like this happening.

Oh well...

Anyway, I will try to answer to some of the interesting comments that I previously highlighted. Words that made me to rethink and to change my points of view. I feel in debt to all those kind users who helped me here. Sorry for not being able to do this before. I hope to end with this tonight.

That is a great point, Katheryne! I've just started to understand the importance of it...

hehe, ok, LittleMe, I take it!
In my defense I would like to say that I was willing to arrive at that point because I was thinking that it was my gf's desire. I knew later that I was wrong. I suspect that she was thinking in the same way than me.
In any case I think you are right. Thanks for your graphic commentary.

Thanks, Chris. After reading your post I realized how important that has to be in SL. I didn't even think about it until I've read some posts in this thread.

hehe, Dakota, thanks for sharing your original and funny stuff and for the organized and clear posts. I appreciate it.

Incanus, that was just the tip of the Iceberg! For what I see, there is no need to look for drama in SL... it always comes to you one way or another. No way to avoid it! And the Spanish SL community is like a gigantic soap opera itself, I guarantee...


hehe, I am done here. I've found it's hard to talk about these things not involving "inocent" people. I take the chance to say that before I opened this thread I asked to my gf for permission to do it. She said that it was ok, also she said that it was not necesary for me to show here the posts in advance.

Very true, Malia! I've learned the hard way. I won't make that mistake again.

Yes, Rhonda, it looks like the way to go. So simple and it was so hard to imagine for me...

Yes, Mickey, I agree. That will be a good "checking point" for future meetings.

Amazing point, Cali! This also brings to my mind some of my best experiences in RL. I will keep this in my head.
And thanks for your detailed post. So much interesting stuff there.
