Outsourced to America
Hey guys, just wanted to share with you a small personal triumph. For years some Americans were worried that their job would be outsourced to China. But a couple of months ago I recently took on my first Chinese client, which means that the Chinese have started outsourcing things to America.

Sugar Daddies
As I'm a gay, I always try to find a best partner for mine. I have tried so many sites those provide arrangements for us. GayArrangement.com is one of these sites. I find this site very helpful for me. So, I want to see all of the best sugar daddies in this site, because you can find me there waiting for you.

Please Keep DC35 Banned
As someone who plays on the school wifi with him I know that he has been making multiple accounts and playing games. I'm sorry that people at my school are retards. He is not my friend and I do not want to play with him. Although I do know people in my school that have been unrightfully banned DC35 is not one of them.

Unban DC35
If any mod sees this please understand that my real account, DC35, has been banned. I would extremely appreciate it if it were unbanned but if this cannot be done then so be it... I have not metagamed and only made other accounts when i was banned again.... i don't think that the mod i am in contact with understands this
ALL I WANT TO DO IS PLAY WITH MIS AMIGOS
Please understand mods.

So, this will be a bit long. The story starts last Saturday night. I was at a church event. There was this attractive girl there, who I’d seen around the church but only said a few words to before. She started talking to me. And it was going well. She seemed interested. When she had to go, she gave me her phone number without me even having to ask, and told me to text her later that night. So I did. And when we were texting, she said “I just wanted to say, you’re super handsome”. I was a bit speechless, but I managed to text back saying she was pretty. In a bit I asked her if she wanted to see a movie with me. She said her parents wouldn’t let her go out with a boy alone (she’s only 14 [yeah, I know]). I saw her the next day at church, and there she asked me to see a movie with her and a couple other people. I said yes of course. In between church and the movie, we sent some flirtatious texts. During the movie, we held hands most of the time. After the movie, we sent some more flirty texts, she asked me if I wanted to hang out at the arcade with her and some other people on Monday. Of course I said yes, and we did, and we held hands there too, and we almost kissed. I was really starting to like her of course. Today, I called her after school, and we talked for two hours until my phone died. Then we started chatting on facebook for a while, flirting some more. And then, right when we were close to making it official that we are dating, her ex-boyfriend messaged me on facebook.
Now her ex-boyfriend is a good friend of mine from our church. So in general I trust him. Apparently he found out about my relationship with this girl, and he wanted to tell me why they broke up. He says she cheated on him. Not only that, he says she cheated on at least 2 other guys as well. So now I don’t know what to do or what to believe. I had been feeling in love with this girl, and now when he sent this, I just don’t know. I don’t know whether to believe him or not. I sure as hell don’t want to believe him, but even if I don’t he has now planted a seed of doubt in my mind, and even if I do date this girl, and she never cheats on me, I’ll always have this doubt. And I hate it. I feel like I can’t love this girl as much as I might have, and I’m not even sure if I should try to love her at all. I’m really confused.

Alright. Here's what you do:
Get close to her. Find out what she likes. Fuck her. Dump her.
Why would I dump her when I could keep dating her and keep fucking her? just saying. Of course, I'm really not concerned with having sex with her at this point anyway.

You have a relationship with this girl at this point. (I don't mean a romantic relationship, or an official relationship, but just a human relationship as with a friend). You owe it to her not to believe gossip about her without better substantiation, and/or without asking her about it. (Which would take a great deal of tact).

I think it's very hard to tell what happened from just what you say here. If the guy is a good friend of yours, why didn't he tell you about this before you were seeing her yourself (or about to)? Moreover, what constitutes "cheating" in such a relationship? Not to say that there aren't things that clearly do, but people can be very slippery about how they define such terms. You should try to find out more, and you should try not to prejudge her until you have better evidence.

"I feel like I can’t love this girl as much as I might have, and I’m not even sure if I should try to love her at all. I’m really confused."

On the one hand, love is a feeling, but on the other hand, it's a commitment to a person. Feelings will ebb and flow based on all kinds of things; but you can act in a loving way toward her (or toward anyone) by not letting your actions toward them be impacted by gossip without substantiating it first. If you follow that and, consequently, get to know her and determine you have reason to trust her, then feelings will take care of themselves.

Look at his motives "he planted a seed of doubt in my mind". If she's pretty he probably wants to get back with her. If she dumped him he probably wants to get back *at* her. At worst she's "butterflying" (she's only 14), so enjoy the time you have with her and when it ends, whatever you do, don't be pissed at her, be nice not bitter and stay friends. You may be the first guy who does that. She'll notice.

(And I hate to be a party pooper, but there's a reason under-age girls are called "Jail Bait".)

CM - this is a common problem in many relationships. People become fearful of things that might happen and it starts affecting what is happening. If there is a 10% chance of her cheating! you are going to be hurt 10% of the time. If you stop trusting her now this relationship will fail 100% of the time. Trust her until she does something that causes you to think again.

Above all realise that the chances of this 14 year old girl finding her life partner now are quite slim. Enjoy the relationship, but don't start planning your retirement with this girl.

Just link this thread to her, she'll never cheat on you after seeing this.
threadID=865373
On a side note, this thread is full of what I assume are "legitimate links" which have not been addressed by the mods to any extent. (Is there a statute of limitations for mod silencing?) In any case the recent "laid back approach" the mods have been taking recently is in fact less liberal than a year ago. Go figure.

(Seriously, though, give her a chance. What have you got to lose? If you don't you'll never really know what would have happened.)
Thanks to those who actually gave me advice (especially Semck).
I've decided I am going to still pursue a relationship, though that was never really in doubt. i want a girlfriend too much to throw it away over this. And I'm really not too concerned with her cheating on me, because, I mean, this is a short term relationship. I'm going to college at the end of this school year, so our relationship is going to last 10 months max. So if she cheats on me, while that would suck, it wouldn't be the end of the world. But like I said, her cheating on me isn't my concern.
My main concern is just what type of person she is. I've been feeling in love (I know its not real love, but this is still the only phrase to describe my feelings) these past few days, especially last night. Then her ex told me all this, and that ruined those feelings last night. It would be very hard for me to love a cheater, so now I'm worried that because of this, even if it probably isn't true, I won't be able to be in "love" with her as much, because any time I send her a romantic text or talk to her on my phone, I'll always have a worry in the back of my mind that it is true, and that she really isn't a person I should love, even though all signs until now have pointed to her being an amazing girl who I like very much. So how can I still enjoy this relationship I'll have without worrying about what kind of person she really is?
