If this sub was an air conditioner, it would always be you smashing that shit up and shutting us down. Thank God that more items in life aren't random girls' cars or stepfather's air conditioners, because the world would truly be forfeit then
Whose car did you steal to grab a bag of shitty downtown brown-frown ditch weed? I know you smoke schwag, it's fine, but I know this is a story associated with you
I know you smoke cess weed bro. Your idea of some fire weed is straight Mexicali, a musty fucking brick of shake, seeds and stems. And I'm guessing you have the cholo who gets it for you in your phone as "the PLUG" or some shit
It should be noted that I've upvoted every single person who's disagreed with me here, as far as I know.
That said.
In 7th grade, I took an SAT test without preparing for it at all, it was spur-of-the-moment, I knew about it about an hour ahead of time and didn't do any research or anything. I scored higher on it than the average person using it to apply for college in my area.
An IQ test has shown me to be in the 99.9th percentile for IQ. This is the highest result the test I was given reaches; anything further and they'd consider it to be within the margin of error for that test.
My mother's boyfriend of 8 years is an aerospace engineer who graduated Virginia Tech. At the age of 15, I understand physics better than him, and I owe very little of it to him, as he would rarely give me a decent explanation of anything, just tell me that my ideas were wrong and become aggravated with me for not quite understanding thermodynamics. He's not particularly successful as an engineer, but I've met lots of other engineers who aren't as good as me at physics, so I'm guessing that's not just a result of him being bad at it.
I'm also pretty good at engineering. I don't have a degree, and other than physics I don't have a better understanding of any aspect of engineering than any actual engineer, but I have lots of ingenuity for inventing new things. For example, I independently invented regenerative brakes before finding out what they were, and I was only seven or eight years old when I started inventing wireless electricity solutions (my first idea being to use a powerful infrared laser to transmit energy; admittedly not the best plan).
I have independently thought of basically every branch of philosophy I've come across. Every question of existentialism which I've seen discussed in SMBC or xkcd or Reddit or anywhere else, the thoughts haven't been new to me. Philosophy has pretty much gotten trivial for me; I've considered taking a philosophy course just to see how easy it is.
Psychology, I actually understand better than people with degrees. Unlike engineering, there's no aspect of psychology which I don't have a very good understanding of. I can debunk many of even Sigmund Freud's theories.
I'm a good enough writer that I'm writing a book and so far everybody who's read any of it has said it was really good and plausible to expect to have published. And that's not just, like, me and family members, that counts strangers on the Internet. I've heard zero negative appraisal of it so far; people have critiqued it, but not insulted it.
I don't know if that will suffice as evidence that I'm intelligent. I'm done with it, though, because I'd rather defend my maturity, since it's what you've spent the most time attacking. The following are some examples of my morals and ethical code.
I believe firmly that everybody deserves a future. If we were to capture Hitler at the end of WWII, I would be against executing him. In fact, if we had any way of rehabilitating him and knowing that he wasn't just faking it, I'd even support the concept of letting him go free. This is essentially because I think that whoever you are in the present is a separate entity from who you were in the past and who you are in the future, and while your present self should take responsibility for your past self's actions, it shouldn't be punished for them simply for the sake of punishment, especially if the present self regrets the actions of the past self and feels genuine guilt about them.
I don't believe in judgement of people based on their personal choices as long as those personal choices aren't harming others. I don't have any issue with any type of sexuality whatsoever (short of physically acting out necrophilia, pedophilia, or other acts which have a harmful affect on others - but I don't care what a person's fantasies consist of, as long as they recognize the difference between reality and fiction and can separate them). I don't have any issue with anybody over what type of music they listen to, or clothes they wear, etc. I know that's not really an impressive moral, but it's unfortunately rare; a great many people, especially those my age, are judgmental about these things.
I love everyone, even people I hate. I wish my worst enemies good fortune and happiness. Rick Perry is a vile, piece of shit human being, deserving of zero respect, but I wish for him to change for the better and live the best life possible. I wish this for everyone.
I'm pretty much a pacifist. I've taken a broken nose without fighting back or seeking retribution, because the guy stopped punching after that. The only time I'll fight back is if 1) the person attacking me shows no signs of stopping and 2) if I don't attack, I'll come out worse than the other person will if I do. In other words, if fighting someone is going to end up being more harmful to them than just letting them go will be to me, I don't fight back. I've therefore never had a reason to fight back against anyone in anything serious, because my ability to take pain has so far made it so that I'm never in a situation where I'll be worse off after a fight. If I'm not going to get any hospitalizing injuries, I really don't care.
The only exception is if someone is going after my life. Even then, I'll do the minimum amount of harm to them that I possibly can in protecting myself. If someone points a gun at me and I can get out of it without harming them, I'd prefer to do that over killing them.
I consider myself a feminist. I don't believe in enforced or uniform gender roles; they may happen naturally, but they should never be coerced into happening unnaturally. As in, the societal pressure for gender roles should really go, even if it'll turn out that the majority of relationships continue operating the same way of their own accord. I treat women with the same outlook I treat men, and never participate in the old Reddit "women are crazy" circlejerk, because there are multiple women out there and each have different personalities just like there are multiple men out there and each with different personalities. I don't think you do much of anything except scare off the awesome women out there by going on and on about the ones who aren't awesome.
That doesn't mean I look for places to victimize women, I just don't believe it's fair to make generalizations such as the one about women acting like everything's OK when it's really not (and that's a particularly harsh example, because all humans do that).
I'm kind of tired of citing these examples and I'm guessing you're getting tired of reading them, if you've even made it this far. In closing, the people who know me in real life all respect me, as do a great many people in the Reddit brony community, where I spend most of my time and where I'm pretty known for being helpful around the community. A lot of people in my segment of the community are depressed or going through hard times, and I spend a lot of time giving advice and support to people there. Yesterday someone quoted a case of me doing this in a post asking everyone what their favorite motivational/inspirational quote was, and that comment was second to the top, so I guess other people agreed (though, granted, it was a pretty low-traffic post, only about a dozen competing comments).
And, uh, I'm a pretty good moderator.
All that, and I think your behavior in this thread was totally assholish. So what do you think, now that you at least slightly know me?
She never gave me proof of her identity and kept changing her stories, because the boyfriend before me apparently took advantage of her instability and sexuality to enslave her and let his friends gang rape and torture her so she was scared.
She disappeared a couple months ago, supposedly because her phone got stolen and she got moved to a protective housing facility with no internet access. I was supposed to keep getting updates from her sister every Wednesday but like two months ago her sister said she'd be getting a phone soon and stopped updating me. That was the same time she was going to the new protective housing place over some kind of health issue. I didn't ask about the health issue because one I didn't want to scare her sister by being scared and two she was pregnant and trying to hide it from her parents and it could have been related. She had arrhythmia, that's part of the story she never changed. It makes me scared she died and her sister has felt too bad to update me since then. I'll def snap if that's the case, this girl can't die, she's too good.
She's the one I was talking about walking to Georgia to meet last year but shit kind of went haywire. Now that this has happened, I'm definitely leaving for that walk soon. I have no idea if Georgia was even close to the truth but I don't really have the mental energy left to do anything else but either kill myself or try to find her so I'm gonna try to find her. I don't know who she is other than she's some girl with a troubled past and some kind of horrible ex and a lot of mental health difficulty. I can feel she was telling the truth about those details. Not much to find someone on.
Well thats fucking nuts, you do know your plan sounds fairly insane and unlikely to succeed right? But if you got to do it ya got to do it I suppose. Unironically keep yourself safe and keep some money for a bus back if tings go to shit.
Yeah, it seems mostly impossible. I do have enough details to feasibly find someone by if at least half the shit is real, but I'm not a P.I. It's just, I can't keep sitting here hoping she comes back, I have to do something.
Thank you for the unironic well wishes. I'll keep myself safe. I just wish I could be keeping her safe instead. I don't need safety for myself, I need it for her.
Anyway, back to the memes before someone other than me gets sad here. Why keep money for a bus ticket back, can't I just steal cars from town to town?
I dunno I don't know much about you beisdes you think you're gonna be the president, a rapper, produce some show, and a pro at melee using kirby (easily the most impossible of all your goals)
Picture an actor saying that in a heated argument scene. Did the writer do good or does your line suck dick so bad not even Adrien Brody could save it?
They probs won't because it turns out I lack some of the traits needed to guarantee it happening, but the ability to come up with a groundbreakingly unique and incredible story isn't one of those traits I lack, so I gotta say that when it comes up because I'll probably still be a published storyteller of some kind someday and once I've been doing that for a while it'll be fun looking back at these comments and how dumb they looked at the time while all along the people thinking they looked dumb were the actual dumb ones. That's why I do a lot of this dumb reddit shit tbh
For one thing, screenwriting isn't about scriptwriting except for the normies in the mediocre segment of the industry. What you just linked isn't bad writing if the writer of it is also the producer and director and cinematographer and makes the final product dope af. Bad writing is bad writing, it's inherently bad, and good writing is good writing, it's inherently good. What you linked to is neither, it basically has no inherent quality level of its own, it's part of a work that requires other parts done in order to represent anything meaningful. Its purpose wasn't to be impressively good writing, just to attract certain people, i.e. the ones with the relevant skills to be picturing an interesting finished product in their head from reading that script.
For the second thing, if you look at the discussions I was having around the time of the pastebin link, it'd be pretty obvious that draft doesn't represent anything like a final product or useful asset, if it did I wouldn't have been posting it online so early. It was a first draft at the stage where the first draft isn't even finished becoming the first draft, and I didn't post one of the later drafts because I knew if I let myself do shit like that then any project I ever release would have every detail of it known by fans already from being posted online.
I dunno if this will help clarify things for you, but it's the truth
no it's, uh, bad writing. You can try to contrive some reasons why it's not but it's like high school senior level creative writing class crap. I know you can picture it being really good in your mind - that don't mean shit in the real world though. If you keep on deluding yourself like this writing career is going to be as fruitful as your trillion dollar company
it's like high school senior level creative writing class crap.
High-school senior level creative writing class typically doesn't involve screenwriting. Trying to compare qualityless script to qualityless prose shows you literally didn't even comprehend the plain English explanation I just gave you of the difference, let alone come into this conversation with enough background on it for a qualified opinion. The closest you could possibly be to qualified is maybe a high school English teacher who thinks she could have been a writer. You could just be a career writer who happens to suck, but that would make your opinion even less qualified than a failed English teacher's.
that don't mean shit in the real world though.
I never said it did. The fact that actors, animators, etc. can picture it being really good in their minds is what I said means shit in the real world, and you saying "don't mean shit in the real world" as a response to my comment further clarifies that your general ability to reason is simply too poor to have followed the premise of how screenwriting works.
If you keep on deluding yourself like this writing career is going to be as fruitful as your trillion dollar company
And this further clarifies how unqualified your opinion is. The box office world record is about to be taken by the first poorly-written movie of the studio that made it. The screenwriting world isn't at all skill-competitive like other fiction writing, it's barely even results-competitive like nonfiction writing, success as a simple writer in this industry only involves a very basic level of ability and then is decided by outside factors like social standing. You have this unqualified opinion that I'm a poor filmmaker or business strategist so I won't be able to succeed in telling these stories as more than a simple writer, then you back it up with the self-evidently even more unqualified opinion that somehow my writing is going to impact my ability to succeed when I, inevitably in your eyes, give up on filmmaking and just try to sell scripts, which I also in your eyes wouldn't write any differently than the scripts I wrote with the intent of producing/directing them myself. It's hard to pack that much retardation into one thought process, but when it's to justify being a /u/DarqWolff hater, anything is possible for the human brain.
You know that when a person is inexplicably surrounded by drama all the time, they're usually the cause, right? I mean, you seem to have developed a certain amount of self-awareness over your time here, now it's time to turn that outwards to the world around you.
What I'm trying to say is that when you find out your one true love is completely insane, please don't walk away jaded and disillusioned. Consider instead recommending her for a mod position here.
She's a compulsive liar who's snared you for no other reason than that's what her pathology drives her to do. You'd do well to just drop the matter entirely and have nothing to do with her, but despite the fact that you clearly know it's all lies I doubt you'll do that.
While what I said sounds harsh, it was honestly said with your best interests at heart. It doesn't matter that it's a microcosm of information, because it's what you told us and you already know that it's lies she's telling you. You're not helping her, and I doubt your evaluation of yourself as being able to take it. You're setting yourself up for a fall and no-ones going to be able to talk you out of falling because you like how noble it sounds.
Nah, I'm really quite positive that if she's not dead, me doing this could be helpful to her. I know sometimes microcosms of info can say much more, but in this case the fact that you have so little info happens to go hand in hand with the fact that you're flat out wrong on the main part of what you're saying. Whatever is going on with her, or whatever she might be lying about, it doesn't change the fact that if I find her it will prove I cared enough to do so and that will impact her. Even if she's always been lying (she probably hasn't but even if), she's still not the world's best liar, there's some shit you can just see through. The way she's always reacted to situations where I did something unusual that showed I cared about her more than she thought, it's easy to see through to the emotional need to feel cared for that way. If tiny-scale versions of the same dynamic have always been one of the only surefire ways to calm her down and get her to stop hurting herself, talking herself into panics, etc, then the walking-a-thousand-miles scale version of it is absolutely gonna cause a real emotional breakthrough if she finds out I did it. There's even less doubt in my mind of this than of her whole identity being real, because actions speak louder than words and the power the same emotional dynamic has always had over her actions has been very consistent and it's obviously connected to emotion because I don't see what non-emotional reason someone could even have for engaging in over a year of that shit.
You gonna argue actions don't speak louder than words? Because if not, I know her better on this one than you. That's the way the cookie crumbles, accept it or not, I don't care.
If you can't see what's wrong with that sentence I quoted on your own then no-one is going to be able to tell you, because you simply don't want to know.
If she's been mostly telling the truth, she'll be happy to meet me just because it actually turns out ok and she doesn't get raped instantly or whatever she's scared of. She'll be glad I cared enough to make her find that out. It's not like she told me to leave her alone, she lost her phone and internet access while still trying to be my friend.
If a lot of that has been fake, like she didn't really lose her phone or she's not really who she said she was or something, then she intentionally disappeared because she thought I'd just move on. This is deeply evident from all her previous behavior across the board. It's also deeply evident that when she finds out she was wrong on a guess like this, it has an impact on her every time.
She has a tendency to let out all her emotional instability in her closest most private relationships. With me this has manifested itself as entire personality changes in who she acts like around me, complexes about how I feel about her, etc. All of this is probably present in her psyche due to exactly the stuff she told me about, as is the fact that she sees it as a tendency to hurt those around her, but even if that stuff was all lies, the behaviors I described are still evident. Clearly something from her past, again probably exactly what she told me it was because I don't think she was all fake - but either way clearly something, gave her a serious guilt complex about this, or she just has very very very unusually extremely deep empathy inherent to her - I think both.
Whatever about the wrapper all this behavior comes packaged in might be fake, I've felt what's under the wrapper.
If you still don't understand, then you're the one that "simply don't want to know." Too fun for you to be cynical and shit on a stranger, not worth it to try to learn how deep social connections work.

If a lot of that has been fake, like she didn't really lose her phone or she's not really who she said she was or something, then she intentionally disappeared because she thought I'd just move on. That means she'd feel different and things would have gone differently if she knew I'd walk any conceivable distance over it. This is deeply evident from all her previous behavior across the board. It's also deeply evident that when she finds out she was wrong on a guess like this, it has an impact on her every time.
Just those two possibilities huh? See, if if someone cut all contact with me, lied to me, had their family keep them from contacting me or even from knowing where they were, a third possibility seems to be likely. They don't want contact. I'm hoping you still have a therapist of some kind. Talk to them about this urgently.
If she doesn't want contact, two things. One, she probably would want contact after I walked a thousand miles for her, knowing her. Two, she'd definitely accept me saying that she owes me one time meeting face to face, and an explanation. Of all the versions of her the real one could possibly be like, they'd all agree with that.
If you really can't follow any of this, I think you need to talk to your own therapist about how your cynical view of people is even worse than that of one the most traumatized people on reddit and causes you to see risks where there are none and destroy your own chances at deep connections with others.
So to summarise, "If I make this grand romantic gesture everything will work out no matter what, because I know this person who I've characterised as a chronic liar so well." If you can't see the flaw in this thinking then like I said before, it's because you don't want to. At any rate, I think we've talked this over as far as it will go. I just hope this doesn't end up with you getting your second restraining order, because at that point your life will start to look like it's following a certain pattern.
So to summarise, "If I make this grand romantic gesture everything will work out no matter what, because I know this person who I've characterised as a chronic liar so well."
No, summarizing is when you come up with a shortened paraphrased version of something longer. What you did there is come up with your own short thing that has nothing to do with/contradicts what you thought you were "summarizing." I think it's imperative that you learn how to read English while you participate in this community.
It's a little sad how aggressive you've gotten over this. It's even sadder that you're trying to play semantics over the word summarise and getting it wrong. It gets to the realms of pathetic that you mod-flaired this, especially given that your abilities as a mod extend to that and reading mail. But the nail in the coffin "learn how to read English while you participate in this community." Have you forgotten where you are?
The "while you participate in this community" + mod-flair can't have been too veiled of irony for you to pick up on. If I were pathetically expressing my mod powers as hard as I can in some emotional fit as you describe I'd just remove your comment, pleb. If you look deep in your heart you might find the honest truth is I don't give a fuck and engaging in this debate with you is just a way to pass the time, since you're clearly not interested in contributing any realistic input or taking anything of value from the conversation.

Nice backpedal. And the day you start doing that is the day when the mods with more powers than you (all of them) take away even that.
If you look deep in your heart you might find the honest truth is I don't give a fuck
You could not have more successfully given the complete opposite impression. The sad thing is, all of my advice was genuine advice. I think what you're doing is unhealthy and that it's obvious to anyone but you. I think what you call your logic with regards to this girl is a series of self-serving rationalisations. The second anyone says 'hey, bad idea' you respond with attempts at condescension followed by aggression, pretty bad attempts at that. 'You can't connect with anyone and should see your own therapist.' You're literally at the schoolyard level of 'no u'. You do this because you literally cannot stand the idea of coming to any other outcome than 'I should go find this girl and profess my love.'
But the saddest thing of all is that there is no reasoning with you. For all you prize your supposed intellect you are bulletproof to any ideas that don't serve your own worldview, which is why you keep sleepwalking off cliffs and will continue to do so. This was my own small attempt to wake you up, but honestly I never had too much doubt about the outcome.

I don't know the other mods well at all, but I'm removing your comment because this tidbit makes it too hilarious not to. If they disagree, they can ruin the joke, but then who really looks butthurt?
If you look deep in your heart you might find the honest truth is I don't give a fuck
You could not have more successfully given the complete opposite impression.
A shame that you did this before you saw my edit. Let me quote it for you.
As an aside, seeing as the only two people reading this thread are you and me and both of us would still be able to see my comments if you removed them, you really are scraping the barrel here.
Yeah, the idea that this girl who's cut contact with you doesn't want you to contact her is ridiculous on reflection. And the idea that someone who got a restraining order while still in his teens could be approaching this in an unhealthy manner, equally ridiculous. Good luck with finding this girl, her not being scared of you instantly raping her, and then giving you the explanation that she owes you.
Dude, I don't even know for a fact she cut contact with me intentionally. I think you're just going crazy now because you've been so BTFO at every point in this back-and-forth until I stopped even bothering to reply to half your shit

She never gave me proof of her identity and kept changing her stories, because the boyfriend before me apparently took advantage of her instability and sexuality to enslave her and let his friends gang rape and torture her so she was scared.

1 manherewegoagain 2018-04-21
Is this the same girl you were gonna see in the start of a trillion dollar company video?
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
It is. Do I seem like the type that would be hopping from girl to girl talking about walking to Georgia for each one? lol
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
I dunno I don't know much about you beisdes you think you're gonna be the president, a rapper, produce some show, and a pro at melee using kirby (easily the most impossible of all your goals)
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Meet up, play against my kirby, then let's see you talk shit again
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
nah, I don't like to waste time with nonsense
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Picture an actor saying that in a heated argument scene. Did the writer do good or does your line suck dick so bad not even Adrien Brody could save it?
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
dude I just told you I don't waste time with nonsense
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Much better. With me as your editor, you'll be published in no time.
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
Thanks! Maybe if you make The Legend of FIK more interesting you might be too
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
It's interesting af, the interesting parts just aren't the parts I'm gonna spoil for people years before the shit's made
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
okay, I guess only time will tell if your fantasies come true
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
They probs won't because it turns out I lack some of the traits needed to guarantee it happening, but the ability to come up with a groundbreakingly unique and incredible story isn't one of those traits I lack, so I gotta say that when it comes up because I'll probably still be a published storyteller of some kind someday and once I've been doing that for a while it'll be fun looking back at these comments and how dumb they looked at the time while all along the people thinking they looked dumb were the actual dumb ones. That's why I do a lot of this dumb reddit shit tbh
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
Alright, well I hope it's gotten better than the preview if that's the case
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
There hasn't been a preview, if there were it would be dope af
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
this is what I'm talking about
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
For one thing, screenwriting isn't about scriptwriting except for the normies in the mediocre segment of the industry. What you just linked isn't bad writing if the writer of it is also the producer and director and cinematographer and makes the final product dope af. Bad writing is bad writing, it's inherently bad, and good writing is good writing, it's inherently good. What you linked to is neither, it basically has no inherent quality level of its own, it's part of a work that requires other parts done in order to represent anything meaningful. Its purpose wasn't to be impressively good writing, just to attract certain people, i.e. the ones with the relevant skills to be picturing an interesting finished product in their head from reading that script.
For the second thing, if you look at the discussions I was having around the time of the pastebin link, it'd be pretty obvious that draft doesn't represent anything like a final product or useful asset, if it did I wouldn't have been posting it online so early. It was a first draft at the stage where the first draft isn't even finished becoming the first draft, and I didn't post one of the later drafts because I knew if I let myself do shit like that then any project I ever release would have every detail of it known by fans already from being posted online.
I dunno if this will help clarify things for you, but it's the truth
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
no it's, uh, bad writing. You can try to contrive some reasons why it's not but it's like high school senior level creative writing class crap. I know you can picture it being really good in your mind - that don't mean shit in the real world though. If you keep on deluding yourself like this writing career is going to be as fruitful as your trillion dollar company
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
High-school senior level creative writing class typically doesn't involve screenwriting. Trying to compare qualityless script to qualityless prose shows you literally didn't even comprehend the plain English explanation I just gave you of the difference, let alone come into this conversation with enough background on it for a qualified opinion. The closest you could possibly be to qualified is maybe a high school English teacher who thinks she could have been a writer. You could just be a career writer who happens to suck, but that would make your opinion even less qualified than a failed English teacher's.
I never said it did. The fact that actors, animators, etc. can picture it being really good in their minds is what I said means shit in the real world, and you saying "don't mean shit in the real world" as a response to my comment further clarifies that your general ability to reason is simply too poor to have followed the premise of how screenwriting works.
And this further clarifies how unqualified your opinion is. The box office world record is about to be taken by the first poorly-written movie of the studio that made it. The screenwriting world isn't at all skill-competitive like other fiction writing, it's barely even results-competitive like nonfiction writing, success as a simple writer in this industry only involves a very basic level of ability and then is decided by outside factors like social standing. You have this unqualified opinion that I'm a poor filmmaker or business strategist so I won't be able to succeed in telling these stories as more than a simple writer, then you back it up with the self-evidently even more unqualified opinion that somehow my writing is going to impact my ability to succeed when I, inevitably in your eyes, give up on filmmaking and just try to sell scripts, which I also in your eyes wouldn't write any differently than the scripts I wrote with the intent of producing/directing them myself. It's hard to pack that much retardation into one thought process, but when it's to justify being a /u/DarqWolff hater, anything is possible for the human brain.
1 manerewegoagain 2018-04-21
holy shit lol
1 Somenakedguy 2018-04-21
This is hilarious
You know pretty much none of that is actually real right?
1 wolfdreams01 2018-04-21
You know that when a person is inexplicably surrounded by drama all the time, they're usually the cause, right? I mean, you seem to have developed a certain amount of self-awareness over your time here, now it's time to turn that outwards to the world around you.
What I'm trying to say is that when you find out your one true love is completely insane, please don't walk away jaded and disillusioned. Consider instead recommending her for a mod position here.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
She's a compulsive liar who's snared you for no other reason than that's what her pathology drives her to do. You'd do well to just drop the matter entirely and have nothing to do with her, but despite the fact that you clearly know it's all lies I doubt you'll do that.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
You know me well, gamgee.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
While what I said sounds harsh, it was honestly said with your best interests at heart. It doesn't matter that it's a microcosm of information, because it's what you told us and you already know that it's lies she's telling you. You're not helping her, and I doubt your evaluation of yourself as being able to take it. You're setting yourself up for a fall and no-ones going to be able to talk you out of falling because you like how noble it sounds.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Nah, I'm really quite positive that if she's not dead, me doing this could be helpful to her. I know sometimes microcosms of info can say much more, but in this case the fact that you have so little info happens to go hand in hand with the fact that you're flat out wrong on the main part of what you're saying. Whatever is going on with her, or whatever she might be lying about, it doesn't change the fact that if I find her it will prove I cared enough to do so and that will impact her. Even if she's always been lying (she probably hasn't but even if), she's still not the world's best liar, there's some shit you can just see through. The way she's always reacted to situations where I did something unusual that showed I cared about her more than she thought, it's easy to see through to the emotional need to feel cared for that way. If tiny-scale versions of the same dynamic have always been one of the only surefire ways to calm her down and get her to stop hurting herself, talking herself into panics, etc, then the walking-a-thousand-miles scale version of it is absolutely gonna cause a real emotional breakthrough if she finds out I did it. There's even less doubt in my mind of this than of her whole identity being real, because actions speak louder than words and the power the same emotional dynamic has always had over her actions has been very consistent and it's obviously connected to emotion because I don't see what non-emotional reason someone could even have for engaging in over a year of that shit.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
Mate...
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
You gonna argue actions don't speak louder than words? Because if not, I know her better on this one than you. That's the way the cookie crumbles, accept it or not, I don't care.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
If you can't see what's wrong with that sentence I quoted on your own then no-one is going to be able to tell you, because you simply don't want to know.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Did you just not understand the sentence?
If she's been mostly telling the truth, she'll be happy to meet me just because it actually turns out ok and she doesn't get raped instantly or whatever she's scared of. She'll be glad I cared enough to make her find that out. It's not like she told me to leave her alone, she lost her phone and internet access while still trying to be my friend.
If a lot of that has been fake, like she didn't really lose her phone or she's not really who she said she was or something, then she intentionally disappeared because she thought I'd just move on. This is deeply evident from all her previous behavior across the board. It's also deeply evident that when she finds out she was wrong on a guess like this, it has an impact on her every time.
She has a tendency to let out all her emotional instability in her closest most private relationships. With me this has manifested itself as entire personality changes in who she acts like around me, complexes about how I feel about her, etc. All of this is probably present in her psyche due to exactly the stuff she told me about, as is the fact that she sees it as a tendency to hurt those around her, but even if that stuff was all lies, the behaviors I described are still evident. Clearly something from her past, again probably exactly what she told me it was because I don't think she was all fake - but either way clearly something, gave her a serious guilt complex about this, or she just has very very very unusually extremely deep empathy inherent to her - I think both.
Whatever about the wrapper all this behavior comes packaged in might be fake, I've felt what's under the wrapper.
If you still don't understand, then you're the one that "simply don't want to know." Too fun for you to be cynical and shit on a stranger, not worth it to try to learn how deep social connections work.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
Just those two possibilities huh? See, if if someone cut all contact with me, lied to me, had their family keep them from contacting me or even from knowing where they were, a third possibility seems to be likely. They don't want contact. I'm hoping you still have a therapist of some kind. Talk to them about this urgently.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
If she doesn't want contact, two things. One, she probably would want contact after I walked a thousand miles for her, knowing her. Two, she'd definitely accept me saying that she owes me one time meeting face to face, and an explanation. Of all the versions of her the real one could possibly be like, they'd all agree with that.
If you really can't follow any of this, I think you need to talk to your own therapist about how your cynical view of people is even worse than that of one the most traumatized people on reddit and causes you to see risks where there are none and destroy your own chances at deep connections with others.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
So to summarise, "If I make this grand romantic gesture everything will work out no matter what, because I know this person who I've characterised as a chronic liar so well." If you can't see the flaw in this thinking then like I said before, it's because you don't want to. At any rate, I think we've talked this over as far as it will go. I just hope this doesn't end up with you getting your second restraining order, because at that point your life will start to look like it's following a certain pattern.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
No, summarizing is when you come up with a shortened paraphrased version of something longer. What you did there is come up with your own short thing that has nothing to do with/contradicts what you thought you were "summarizing." I think it's imperative that you learn how to read English while you participate in this community.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
It's a little sad how aggressive you've gotten over this. It's even sadder that you're trying to play semantics over the word summarise and getting it wrong. It gets to the realms of pathetic that you mod-flaired this, especially given that your abilities as a mod extend to that and reading mail. But the nail in the coffin "learn how to read English while you participate in this community." Have you forgotten where you are?
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
The "while you participate in this community" + mod-flair can't have been too veiled of irony for you to pick up on. If I were pathetically expressing my mod powers as hard as I can in some emotional fit as you describe I'd just remove your comment, pleb. If you look deep in your heart you might find the honest truth is I don't give a fuck and engaging in this debate with you is just a way to pass the time, since you're clearly not interested in contributing any realistic input or taking anything of value from the conversation.
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
Nice backpedal. And the day you start doing that is the day when the mods with more powers than you (all of them) take away even that.
You could not have more successfully given the complete opposite impression. The sad thing is, all of my advice was genuine advice. I think what you're doing is unhealthy and that it's obvious to anyone but you. I think what you call your logic with regards to this girl is a series of self-serving rationalisations. The second anyone says 'hey, bad idea' you respond with attempts at condescension followed by aggression, pretty bad attempts at that. 'You can't connect with anyone and should see your own therapist.' You're literally at the schoolyard level of 'no u'. You do this because you literally cannot stand the idea of coming to any other outcome than 'I should go find this girl and profess my love.'
But the saddest thing of all is that there is no reasoning with you. For all you prize your supposed intellect you are bulletproof to any ideas that don't serve your own worldview, which is why you keep sleepwalking off cliffs and will continue to do so. This was my own small attempt to wake you up, but honestly I never had too much doubt about the outcome.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
I don't know the other mods well at all, but I'm removing your comment because this tidbit makes it too hilarious not to. If they disagree, they can ruin the joke, but then who really looks butthurt?
Couldn't I have? Kek
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
A shame that you did this before you saw my edit. Let me quote it for you.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
It's ridiculous how much shit you just make up and believe, homie
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
Yeah, the idea that this girl who's cut contact with you doesn't want you to contact her is ridiculous on reflection. And the idea that someone who got a restraining order while still in his teens could be approaching this in an unhealthy manner, equally ridiculous. Good luck with finding this girl, her not being scared of you instantly raping her, and then giving you the explanation that she owes you.
1 DarqWolff 2018-04-21
Dude, I don't even know for a fact she cut contact with me intentionally. I think you're just going crazy now because you've been so BTFO at every point in this back-and-forth until I stopped even bothering to reply to half your shit
1 SamWhite 2018-04-21
You think I'm crazy? Interesting perspective considering most of my last comment was quoting you.
