Funny how things change.
Heh, i remember the last time i made a journal entry on here. It was back before i left for Japan for the Christmas holidays. Back before the world went to hell, well my world went to hell at least.

I've come to realise though, that if given the right scenario, i can make myself fall in love with anyone, at any time. Same goes for any one else out there. If someone comes up to you, and presents you with their own affection, and it is in fact for you. While initially you think nothing of it, eventually it'll keep popping up in the back of your mind. And then, you'll wonder 'what would it be like if i were with them'? If it so happens that you're current in a relationship with another person, this act of affection could very well mess things up.

Anywho, with that technical drivel out of the way. I think i'm gonna be taking a break from gaia. As i think about all that's happened to me through gaia, i'm not sure i want to stay on here anymore. How many have i hurt now through my rps? Madison, Aimee...Zoie? All of them i hurt, while not intentional, a hurt is still a hurt. This break in the end may turn out to be me quitting gaia permanently.

Mk! Onto my OTHER topic. Hehe, i love rambling like this. Long distance relationships. What the ******** is up with them? I really don't get it. Okay sure, there's a CHANCE that you and whomever your entangled with will live happily ever after, but that's it. a CHANCE! Case in point those who get into relationships over a medium such as gaia. Now think, think about this for just a sec. The 'relationship' you've formed with this person while still being in a relationship, isn't anything more than a fantasy. The moment you lose acess to your computer, or gaia. That's it. The relationship you tried so hard to forge, is nothing more than a memory. More over, what happens when someone else shows up in your life. Someone, you can touch, feel and hold? Where you don't have to read what they say, but actually hear and see it. Eventually something real will come along, and one of you will say those cursed words. 'We need to talk." And trust me, nothing good has ever followed those words, when in a relationship. Why am i saying all this? Cause, it's what i've sadly had to learn.

While in a multitude of realtionships over gaia. I realised that, the moment all the PMs and the rps we we're in disappear, our relationship would vanish. Same goes for those who communicate strictly over msn. Delete your msg history of the person you were talking to and POOF all gone. There would be no trace of that ever happening. Mind you this is all my perceptions on this entire thing. I've known a whole bunch of people who've had successful long distance relationships, and have lived happily ever after. To bad i'm not one of them. If anything i'm quite jaded on the whole idea of it.

In my eyes. Long distance relationships, DO NOT and CANNOT work. Only if you've physically met prior to this all, will it ever work. It's just to easy to fall in love over the internet, and in some cases, these type of relationships can leave the most painful scars of all.

On a bit of a sidenote. I'm writing my final Sanctuary Story. While my first ended...kinda open ended. And the next two were never posted. My final story is entitled. Sanctuary of the Sky: Requiem of a Fallen Judge. Look out for it. Ciao.

I'm sorry things still ahvn't worked out for you. All I have to say is that if you DO leave gaia you'd better get on Yahoo once in a while then because while I agree that long distance relationships rarely work out friendship is different from what I've seen. I hope we as friends can keep in touch still.

Well, I'll talk to you later I guess. Best wishes to you Trin.

i suppose i should check your gaia journal more often, hm? well, i agree that it's easy to go for someone who shows you affection. it's nice. it makes you feel good, but is it really that easy to just fall for affection? in that case, what you're saying is that you fall for the attention and the feeling, not the person. anyone can say things to make you feel good. that's not the point. it's like, whenever you or greg sends me a message, which is quite out of the ordinary, it makes me feel a little giddy. whenever you go online i jump at the chance to talk even if i have nothing to talk about. when something happens that makes me feel torn, i talk with you about it or i run to duckie or i cry to chris. affection, support, a feeling of comfort. it just feels like you belong there. you have a right to cry to them, to hold them, to yell at them, to be with them. and sometimes, even when you don't want to talk, ran out of things to talk about, have nothing to say, you just like them being there. even if you're pissed as all hell at them, it's nice to still have them on the line, knowing they're still there. and you really shouldn't say that long distance relationships cannot and do not work, even if that is your perspective, if you know people who have long distance relationships that are working because that's quite a bit of a contradiction, wouldn't you say? and long distance or no, all relationships have just a "chance" of surviving. anything that's anything only has a "chance." just because the person's right there doesn't mean it'll work. not trying to get you down but robin was there and things didn't work. you've had long distance relationships and relationships that were right there and neither of them worked. i'm sure it's the same for any others. there isn't a problem with a relationship being far away that would automatically rule out the possibility of things working out. maybe you or whoever you're with just isn't ready for a stable, working relationship. there's not enough commitment, w/e. my relationship isn't the most stable thing on the planet. i mean, outwardly since we've never broken up or w/e, but i manage to smash things up plenty but we keep the relationship going. point is, don't knock on long distance relationships because you know how i feel about them and i will bop you one for it. i'd talk about the whole disappearing from your life by erasure of messages but my dad's yelling at us to get off the net and pack the van to go camping so i gotta go now but i'm sure you can figure out what i'd say to you. =P i love you, darling. be a good boy now. *kisses your nose* i'll write you more when i get back.

I agree with you in most aspects.
Long distance relationships have a high chance of not working out.
The ones I have been in were purely for the satisfaction of the person who asked me.
I did not want to say no in case they took it the wrong way.
As I have said in a post in GHG, I have never really fancied anyone, only the other way around.
The relationships, of course, never work out.
The first reason being, I am not contributing to the relationship.
The second reason being, it is a long distance relationship, so the love is only projected through one media, that is, the internet.
For a relationship to work out the love must be shared through sight, touch, language, expression, and emotion.
The point that I do not agree with is that long distance relationships leave the most painful scars.
Any relationship will only leave a scar as big as you let it leave.

I hope that was not confusing.
