I go and buy a lot of skin and hair demos and try them on! Then I shop like a madwoman!....lol

I hate trying on demos when he's around. Then I hear, ewwwwwww why are you wearing green and pink hair. Um, it's a demo!

Of course, he's usually still in the vicinity in RL if he's not logged into SL so I'm always a good girl. (which i would be anway...

)

Heh heh! You don’t want to know what I do when Claire isn’t around...but if you really want to know...ask her, she knows.

Just don't ask Brann...

Wow, this is like the antithesis of the 'Can you realy trust your SL lover?' thread.

Eye opener. I'll agree with that.

So, what do YOU do when you are alone in sl, with no commitments?

I log off.

If I am posting here my partner is away.

Usually I build, talk to my friends, wander round behaving myself (cos I get my best fun when he is here not the other way round). Tidy up newbies, as Lindal has said. Put in some Mentoring time maybe. Look for textures.

Then again there is the girl's gang outing which is safety in numbers and keeps us all occupied and enjoying our non-liberty.

Brann, you do remember...

From: Brann Georgia

I have no idea what that means....

It means I spend my time (when Claire is away) dancing with other women...Brann, you do remember dancing with me on several occasions?
BTW, I rather enjoyed dancing with you Brann...

I don't have a partner as in a name attached to my profile.
I do have a partner as in someone I like to be with. She is 7 to 9 hours different in time zones (depending on time of year) which makes it very difficult to have a steady relationship. When not in game we text each other in RL. She is free to see other people and I actually encourage her to so she will not have to sit in game alone when I can not be there with her. I am free to see others as well but I never really do.

When she is not on, I either sit in our house and look at the pictures I have of her while I IM other friends, or I go dance and visit those other friends. I had a date with Yosef once

but afterwards I copied what we talked about to a note card and sent it to her. We share everything. Maybe too much. Yosef, darling, if you would have stayed 30 minutes longer you would have seen how much we share

... I'll keep you next time.

But as often as not, when I am online and she is not, I write notcards for her. We do scenes this way. Aftercare is when we are together.

Aftercare together. That's a really lovely way of doing things ... makes perfect sense to me with a 6 hour time difference that's bad enough.

/me smiles at the small face of Melissa. His gloved hand brushes the hair away from her eyes, but it only falls back defiantly. "Hello, Mel," he says. "I know what you had in mind and I'm flattered you choose me. I am just not ready. You deserve so much more than I am able give you."

Yosef kisses the top of Melissa's forehead and with a tear in his eye, he turns and walks away.

Seems as though my partner is away all the time, hence my desperate housewife RP. I usually hang out with friends that I have lost touch with since the partnership (I know, I know), work, shop, obsess over classroom furnitire, pick up chicks, and call my army of lawn maintenance workers over for some gardening.

Shame on you, Jig. Taking advantage of newbies in that way. And does your partner know about your little hobby?

I hunt newbies too...but I take them shopping and generally help knock off the newbie edges.

I'm not a newbie, and I wish you hadn't used a crowbar.

/me rubs the lump on the side of his head and tries to remember his name.

How's the Hols, Hal? I hope you didnt ruin the rental car this time.

Your loving Jig.

Fine babe. Both me and my bro Hal the clever one. The car is fine - we found a jeep and borrowed its letters to make the cleo look bolder. I had an odd experience - joined up as a noob to see what happened. Wow

I build.

I believe in Occupying myself constructively, or creatively.

That goes for both SL, and RL.
