I can safely say that some patterns have been set as far as my SLife goes. I am still not involved in a a SL relationship to any romantic degree. I have friends that I think the world of and that is more than ok with yours truly. I care about them and both of their lives and they do likewise. It really works! The only avatar I get really excited to see and still marvel at the beauty of is Kimala. No big shocker there is there? Maybe its my limited amount to fantasize, but I can't just divorce myself from RL reality.
It's not to say I haven't been drawn to people. I have. The one experience where I actually tried to attempt a relationship in SL was a total disaster. I have never had my chain yanked by such a tormented, narcissistic soul. Wow.... I still shudder to think of that foolish attempt on my part. I figured that the uncomplicated path works best for me and I let people know upfront when they ask about this person or that and my relationship with them.
My worse SL experience? Only one sticks out in my mind. Going on a blind date with someone I got suckered into sympathy bidding on. I should have been paid. It was wretched to say the least. My best SL experience? Vast amounts of them. I know people, mostly women : ), from a wide array of places I have dreamed about going to and spending time at. I'll mention one: my friend Goss who lives nearby the epic Aussie surf break of Margaret River. I get my own surf reports from a world class spot when I see her. Friends from all over the world is just beyond belief. I am very blessed.
I am very comfortable in my SL skin. I'm not looking for anything or looking to get something from somebody. The longer you are in SL the more closely it aligns with who you are in RL. You see people for who they are, warts and all. Some who like, some you love, some you avoid and some drive you nuts.
Yeah, its just like real life come to think of it.....

hey you --- i think anyone who seems to think they can be someone else in SL... tricks themselves and some around them for a while -- but that is all. at the end of the day -- your core is the same RL and SL. i was telling someone just last night who is off to meet someone in RL they are very close to in SL how excited i was for them... they are both good souls with great senses of humor... you know that those qualities are not ones you can disguise behind a login.
/me gets out the Compound W to take care of all those warts BigD is seeing on me.
Seems those times I attempt to be different in SL than I am in RL, I am unhappiest and don't have fun. I guess I will never be an actor as I can only be one person ~ me.
Thank you for the honor of being part of your SLife and helping you to celebrate your RL birthday.
No thank you!
