    I might be gone for a while. I've got a ****load of RealLife things to deal with, including but not limited to possibly getting kicked out of school for lack of points and almost getting ditched for an emotionally abusive ex-boyfriend. (I won't elaborate on it here, but if you want to know exactly what's up, go here and here.) I might drop in occasionally if I feel that the forum gives me something else to think on, but right now I have to think about stuff, hard.

    I'll be on vacation from the 18th till the 27th anyway, but I thought I oughta let people know about my other reasons anyway. My life's a mess, I need to pick things up, and I'm not sure if my staying behind a computer for a couple of hours a day is going to do any good.

    Wish me luck people, I'll need it.

    Good Luck. It's too bad that you're leaving. Read the messages, thinks that she is odd(no offence) and Dennis is an *******.

    Good Luck, try to have some fun on your vacitation.

    I would offer words of sympathy if there were right words to give.

    All I can say is that I understand. Considering how many of my female friends act in the same way (though luckily not towards me as I'm just a friend) I find it hard not to be a chauvanist. Let's just say that I've been in the same position as you, and all it bred in me was hatred for both of them in the end (hatred that I still wished could be even greater so I would do something in the future when the inevitable hits yet again). Good luck, years of time to heal did me no good, I hope you'll fare better.

    Here's one memory I would've liked to leave rotting off somewhere.

    P.S.: hey, there's a photo of yours in that other forum! What about sharing your pictures on the SP members photo club? Just an idea! ;) :D

    Best of luck, Faragon. I hope everything turns out for the best - whichever way that may be with your g/f. And best of all luck with school.

    Faragon,

    I can't help but feel empathy towards you. My moniker I must confess, is to some degree a Freudian slip. I haven't been in quite your situation, but ...

    I've been in a number of situations where the following has happened:

    1) She and I were totally drawn to each other, but I was moving away a month or so down the road.

    2) We had it for each other, but she was with somebody else at the time. And I suspect its not unlike the case of the abusive-ex you've described.

    3) or both.

    Where is serendipity when you most want it? And there's no turning back the clock to make yourself younger. I feel for you Faragon, and know quite well where you're coming from.

    Best wishes and best of luck from the heart! (I need it as well)

    I hope you'll be able to clear things up a bit, I haven't been in a similar situation (yet), but I do feel for you.

    succes en sterkte, Faragon.

    Gosh. Poor girl. Poor you. I must make sure that I'll never be in any relationships. *shudders and hugs Faragon*

    Hope that you'll be back soon.

    Best of luck, Faragon. I've traveled along a similar road and, if I arrived not unscathed, I did make it past that particular stretch of my path.

    First of all, thank you for the kind words and well wishes. It means a lot to me.

    Here is how things are at the moment, which is great, basically. :grin: Life is looking up, and I can say that I'm going to go on vacation with only a slight heartache.

    @Aragorn II: I have my pictures up in the SP Member Photos thing on MSN. I was one of the first to join there. Look harder ;)

    @Foradasthar: There's no hatred in me that's aimed at her. I've got him in my crossairs though. :) I would not wish this upon anyone, but I have come out a wiser person, as well as a stronger one. I'm thankful for the lessons I learned due to it but other than that, I want to bury this very very deep.

    Also, school seems a bit more optimistic now. They want me to progress to the next year (I have been given the vote of confidence), and have given me, as well as 15 other students who are in the same perdicament (not passing exams due to school's messing with the system) as me, a home-exam, which we can't possibly fail. They said, and I quote: "I don't care if you make this exam with the 16 of you, use every book there is and submit exact copies of eachothers answers, just as long as you all pass it!" Which is pretty decent, considering it's not mostly my fault I didn't pass an exam which I had actually already passed last year.

    Again, thank you all for the well wishes, I'm sure that all the positive thinking aimed at me had some effect. Just like the PvP Forum, this is a great community, and I love you guys and gals for it! :grin: ;)

    [​IMG] Well, I consider myself as one of the community and you'll know it. This thread is not finished without my post, dear friend!

    Eventhough I got my own troubles to deal with, you'll always be welcome to talk and chat, if need be or if you simply feel like to.

    'The only way to have a friend, is to be a friend.' And you've been a friend to me. :)

    IMO, you've always been a wise and sensible chap. Once, you'll be rewarded. ;)

    Enough sucking up. Get back to work, NOW! :p

    Bit late, but that's better than never.

    I wish you intelligence, you'll see that luck runs out much faster than you wish :D
