Lamenting the fact that my level 49 Halloween icon sucks I suddenly level up. Hooray for Level 50 and hooray for a better Halloween icon.

Well done, Level 50 is a particularly nice milestone, though a cauldron of goop isn't much of an improvement, surely?

I've got a few more days left yet, so Hallowe'en should be done and dusted, before I trade in the golden Cthulhu

Thanks also to Dev.

Anyone remember me? Haha.

Thought I'd just show my face and see how many people stuck around. A surprising amount to be honest!
The site has changed so much since my last visit. It's fun just to look at my old posts and see how much of an idiot I was when I was 13.

Anyway, was very nostalgic to come back this thread.
Bye bye!

It's an improvement on a level which has no special Halloween design! And careful. With this cauldron of *ahem* goop as you so tactfully put it, I can wield the power of, well, not the cosmos but certainly the power of eye of newt!

I didn't even think that level 50 is a milestone, it is though you're right. Scary.

Careful, eye of newt can actually send your spunk green. Whether that's gone off or not, I really don't want to know.

Thank you to Blitz-Mage, as I've recently Cooped him, to move up to #76 most experienced

That's probably my last rank change before Level 57, but I'll get the rest of them... eventually.

LEVEL 41

Thanks for voting, jonthomson! Your experience has been automatically deposited!
With that vote, you now have 38,642 experience points. You need -2 more to get to Level 60. The next Grounds Gold day begins in 21 hours, 15 minutes, and 37 seconds.

Start making lists with me, maybe? :3

I heard back from that girl. I hate the use the term friendzone but... that's what happened. However, she felt things were too soon for her to develop any feelings and strongly noted that it didn't mean never. I may have said things too soon but I feared it was either then or never since someone else might have taken her. She just wants to remains friends for the time being. Although, I am being careful with her words since right now there's no guarantee for anything to happen. I'd like to wait things out and allow her to decide when she's ready but after my last few moments with letting girls try and come back to me it didn't go the right way. I believe she is more genuine than the last few I tried dating so I still want to see if anything will happen but doing that could be bad for me if it doesn't go my way.

For now I'll just focus on events that I'm attending for the rest of the year as well as Christmas. When the new year arrives I'll see what's going on in my life since by then I'll have a clearer idea on what I want to do. I already want to do a few things for 2014 so I'll mind my own business in the meantime. Although, some of those plans consist of meeting up with her but it's all good.

All you can do is roll with the punches. And whatever happens, just be grateful for the experience! :P

She explained her reasons and you know what, I respect her for it. Everything she said was within reason and there was no "It's not you, it's me" bullshit. Just down to earth honesty with her hoping that she'd like things to turn out better for us. I guess all I can do is persevere and at least try and maintain the friendship.

Yeah, I suppose there's always doing that with very little fuss. I never mind it when people grab the odd few points from the portal whilst depositing. It's hitting two birds with one stone, really.

Exactly. I don't like being totally inactive in the BP list while I'm still active around here. To be honest, I was kind of glad in a way when I saw that extra save pop up. And hey, I've even gained 2 more ranks since hitting 50,000. ;)

You're speaking to the guy who did the B/P updates for years whilst doing absolutely nothing in the portal. :P I just did it because I had the time to do that stuff but now I've changed gears and honestly, it's for the better for me. I've got my own life to take care of and I'm seeing that I can get to where I want it to be.

And you know what, I've yet to see her since. We will eventually bump into each other again so hopefully by then she's over that little moment and we can all move on from it. I'm guessing she'll be around at the Halloween event. That said, I kinda wonder if I'll ever bump into my ex again. Last time I even had to be a few metres near her was back in June. There's really nothing she can do to me now since I'll (hopefully) soon be spending my time with someone else and she finally got the one friend to love her and that's a lot coming from Mrs "I can't handle a relationship."

It's probably best to leave the past in the past, anyway. I was googling some of my old high school friends last night -it's so depressing... :P

Oh man, I've seen some of those that I recognised from high school. I saw the Facebook profile of one of them and I just laughed. Same as my age and already she has a kid. Granted, my nan had her first child when she was 20 but at least she was married by then. Then again, times were different back then but now, having a kid at the age of 23 is far too soon if you ask me. Oh well, if doing that ruined her life then that's her fault and not mine. However, I'm sure the retarded government gave her all the benefits to make sure she and her kid are fine all because she most likely had unprotected sex. For shame.

Well shit!

Yeah, I'm one of those people that thought life was better before social media. I'm just glad that I graduated high school before facebook, twitter and the smart phone existed. (There was myspace, though, but that was pretty tame compared to how things are now...)

I guess that's lucky for your call. I tried to have a Facebook-free life but eventually I had to get on there for the sake of contacts with others. There was simply no escape for me. However, I could do without Twitter because if one day I ceased all activities on there contact issues with those I know would be minimal. Facebook is the real "problem" for me in terms of communication with others.

Real honesty is something you can only respect and praise the honest person. It's really hard to be honest (not only to yourself but to others as well).
I know, I said it before, but I mean it: I really wish you all the best for your friendship. :)

However, I'm sure the retarded government gave her all the benefits to make sure she and her kid are fine all because she most likely had unprotected sex. For shame.

On the other hand, would you really like to live in a country that doesn't care about people are in need of help? I sure as hell wouldn't. Sure, there are always the dumb fucks that misuse a system, but I rather not live anywhere where the government would only say: "Hey, it's your own fault. Go fuck yourself!"or that would decide which life is worth living and which isn't. That's what we already had in Germany from 1933 to 45.

Agreed. I don't understand the rush to get married/have kids. I'm more inclined to enjoy my 20's and live for myself -there's plenty of time to worry about kids later on (or never). LOL

Meh, we've somehow got along just fine without for all this time -if you want to get in touch with me, call, or come over and we can hang out. It just find it asinine that people feel the need to share every last damn trivial thing and hope people will "like" it like it's some kind of popularity contest.

If nothing ever happens with a relationship then she can at least be a great friend of mine. I suppose it's good that for now we're only friends so we can be more sure at a later time that we're right for each other. The last relationship I had got rushed into and look what happened to that. I won't entirely put my ex to blame for that since I think both of us were at fault for going in too soon. Oh well, nevermind that one since as long I'll still hang out with her it could get better later on.

However, I'm sure the retarded government gave her all the benefits to make sure she and her kid are fine all because she most likely had unprotected sex. For shame.

On the other hand, would you really like to live in a country that doesn't care about people are in need of help? I sure as hell wouldn't.

The funny thing is, now they're trying to clamp down on under 25s getting these benefits. I'm sure the government would have some bias way of dealing with me if I was with someone and we didn't take those precautions. They'd only put us on the streets and put all the chavs in homes.

Sure, there are always the dumb fucks that misuse a system, but I rather not live anywhere where the government would only say: "Hey, it's your own fault. Go fuck yourself!"

If you see Britain now, they're heading more and more towards that. The youth are always getting treated badly by the government, particularly the tories. Just wait until 2015 and those fuckers in number ten will be out once and for all. If not, there is really no hope for Britain at all. Granted, I don't like Labour party's leader but it's better we have them in charge than the others. When the tories are in charge riots seem to occur. Co-incidence? I think not!

Indeed, there is that chance for me but it cannot be acquired instantly. At least I can see that out of everyone she would be with I'm strongly in mind. She hasn't been with anyone else before so I can see that it is hard for her to all of sudden go with someone right away, particularly when the distance between us is far.

Heh, what about me knowing two great friends who are both 24, are married together and also have their own house?

Did you know them from school? Well, at least you're still in touch; I think a lot of the depressing-ness for me stems from the fact that I haven't seen them in so long and so much has changed...

I'm still free (for the time being) after all this time and I can't say for sure how much longer I'll be on my own for.

Don't be afraid to live, man -just don't do anything careless. ;)

I may have rushed into telling her that I liked her but I felt it was a now or never situation since there may have not been another chance for me.

I've had a few opportunities over the years to tell a girl how I felt about her and never did it just because I didn't have the balls; one of which I was sure actually liked me and was waiting for me to make the first move. Now I'll never know what could could have happened if I just grew a pair and spoke up. Sucks, man -you did the right thing.

Or they could be as young as they can possibly be to have a kid. There were a few in high school when I was there who were pregnant in their last year.

Whoa, that would be what, like 13? Now that's some pedobear (or maybe Jerry Springer) shit right there. :P

I just wonder how many of them having kids so young actually wanted them or was it because they didn't have protection on at the time and fucked up their own lives as a result. I could actually tell who's who from the mothers in the outside world.

Oh, I'm sure that's the reason behind many kids at that age, though I've known more than one couple who WANTED kids in their early 20's. My response is that your brain's not fully developed until age 25 -think about it! :P
