What opposing power do you most want to see in able hands?
Which country in Classic that you are not playing do you most hope is in the hands of someone with a reasonably good sense of the overall map dynamics, unit abilities and the way various provinces and powers relate to one another?

A pity it turned out as it did.

It was poised interestingly, although I suspect it was mostly "Let's kill the non-voting people". The I/R/T scramble was fun. Given Germany's latest push into Venice, I feel Russia would have come out on top of Turkey unless Germany built armies and sent them east (unlikely)

Faster Than The Speed of Light.
Some breaking news yesterday from CERN that subatomic particles seem to have beaten the speed of light. Very exciting and, although CERN wants the results checked again before publishing, such an extraordinary claim that I thought I'd bring it to attention here on the forum.

Donor Status
Question- I have a bronze donor symbol by my name. Is this fair within the game? Does it help my play, grant me "serious player" status so my word gets respected? Or make me a target instead?

I know that I look for that symbol in every game I am now entering. I treat others different when I see it. Is this part of the "spirit" of Diplomacy?

Scmoo472 (1933 D)

I agree.
Sorry, my computer glitched and it didn't post. Luckily, I had saved what I wrote. Anyway, here goes:

So this is about the same girl in my previous thread. Today at church, I overheard her mentioning something about a boyfriend she had previously had in the 5th grade (not a real, true boyfriend, I know, because she was only a 5th grader, but it is still nonetheless some sort of relationship with the opposite sex, possibly involving kissing). Anyway, for reasons unknown, this started to deeply depress me. I told myself it was because I wanted to be her first boyfriend and first kiss, and now I knew that if we dated, I would not be her first boyfriend and I probably would not be her first kiss. But that didn’t quite make sense. I had liked other girls before even though I knew that they had already had boyfriends and kisses. After thinking about it for a couple of hours I finally discovered the real reason why this depressed me so much.

I had thought I was falling in love with Gabby (that is her name, by the way). But that of course makes no sense; I have barely even talked to her. In reality, what I was falling in love with were my fantasies of her; what I thought she was. And in those fantasies, I had pictured her as never having had a boyfriend or a kiss. So when I was confronted with the truth, the fact that she has had a boyfriend and probably a kiss as well, I became deeply depressed.

I feel a lot better now that I realize the truth now, but a large part of me still feels sad. I feel like my fantasy Gabby has died. I’m feeling what I guess is grief, due to that fact. I don’t have much experience with grief; the last time a family member of mine died was when I was four. But I think what I am feeling is grief. It feels a lot like the way a felt when my pet fish dies, except quite a bit worse. I’m sure if I actually lost a loved one if would feel much much much worse than this, but I guess this is sort of a sneak preview.

Anyway, now I’m back to where I started with Gabby. The only two things I really know for sure about her the things that attracted me to her in the first place, and those are the fact that she is physically attractive (not particularly HOT, but she’s very cute), and the fact that she has shown a few signs of liking me. And those two facts combined make it so that I want to get to know her. Which is exactly how I felt almost two and a half months ago, when I first started feeling attracted to her. But that time, I was so desperate to fall in love that I created fantasies of us in love, and I started to fall in love the way I pictured Gabby in my fantasies. But that isn’t the real Gabby. I want to get to know the real Gabby, to see if I could fall in love with her in the future. But the problem is, I’m not quite sure how to go about doing that. So can you guys help me figure out what to do next?

I also have a second question. I want to know how to avoid falling in love with these fantasy girls in the future. It’s happened to me before Gabby, although never at this level. And honestly, this is what has prevented me from getting a girlfriend in a past. I fall in love with a fantasy version of a girl, and then I’m too afraid to talk to her in real life because I’m afraid she won’t love me back. A lot of this has to do with the fantasies I have about these girls while, *ahem*, masturbating. While sex has always played a part in these fantasies, the majority of the time, when they involved a girl that I like, I fantasized mostly about falling in love. I have gathered here and there that this isn’t normal, and that most guys my age fantasize only about sex. Lately I have noticed that I too, have been gradually fantasizing less about falling in love, and more about sex. Perhaps this shows that I am becoming a more normal teenage boy. So do you think that I should attempt to completely stop the falling in love fantasies and focus on the sexual fantasies with the girls I like, or should I cut out the fantasies about girls I like altogether and only focus on other girls, i.e. the ones that are hot but who I don’t have crushes on? And is there anything else that I need to do to stop falling in love with these fantasy versions of girls?

First off. I would like to have you either post here, or PM me, with your age, because I will never be able to answer with only this. I will keep that between a PM if you want.
I just turned 15. The girl in question is 13. I think. She's in 8th grade. I suppose she might be 14, but she's probably 13. I never asked her.

Ok, I am thinking your not actually thinking of your relationship with the right eyes. I am thinking that your not experiencing "love" so to say, but more or less an attraction. I mean, if your *masturbating* to her, than I don't think your loving her. I think your loving her appearance. The only way to really stop these, is to get to know her, find out who she really is, because from what I am gathering you haven't a clue of what she is actually like, (correct me there if I am wrong), and she could be someone that you aren't wanting to beat off to, but actually fall in love with. Because they are 2 completely different things. And this is coming from a 16 year old. So I am near your age group, so I have experienced these same things. Don't worry. :)

Blah blah blah...

respell love with lust and then you will understand you puberty stricken boy.
@schmoo: I think you're misunderstanding me. I masturbated to fantasies about falling in love with this girl 3 times more often then to fantasies about having sex with her. I wanted to love her (well anyone, really, but especially her). And in those falling in love fantasies, I gave her certain characteristics, like never having had a boyfriend, that I wanted in a girl, and I fell in love with this fake Gabby, rather than the real Gabby (who I of course could not fall in love with in that short amount of time). In essence, I created my perfect girl in my fantasies, with Gabby as a template.

Scmoo, two corrections.
First, your =/ you're. Secondly, beating the meat does not preclude love. In fact, I would say it's a prerequisite for it.
Scmoo472 (1933 D)
19 Sep 11 UTC
That is just weird. I mean, no offense, but that means your mind is telling you Gabby isn't perfect. So in place it makes the perfect person. Which is who you are in love with. So again same thing. You love her attraction. Not her.
I never said I loved her. In fact, I said the exact opposite: "I had thought I was falling in love with Gabby (that is her name, by the way). But that of course makes no sense; I have barely even talked to her. In reality, what I was falling in love with were my fantasies of her; what I thought she was."
I admitted right there that I didn't really love her, but instead I loved my fantasies of her.
In fact, the whole point of this whole thread was my realization that I loved my fantasies of her,rather than actually loving her.

CM next time don't fantasize so much. You will jinx any chance you have with girls. Less thinking more action. If you want to go out with a girl ask her out. If she says no move on.

19 Sep 11 UTC
I'm not sure where you live, but 15/13 year old relationships are walking a fine line. 16/13 and 15/12 are both illegal where I live so watch out...

And, Putin, while I don't think disgusting is the right term, we are one "tits or gtfo" thread away from /b/
@Spyman: Then what am I supposed to think about when I..... you know?
@putin: Okay, the masturbation part was supposed to be a minor side note to this thread, not a main point. Can you just pretend I never said it or something?
spyman (424 D(G))

Kim Kardashian
Oh, and also at spyman: "You will jinx any chance you have with girls." I said that in the OP! You guys keep giving me advice that I have already stated that I know. Did you read all of the OP?
@spyman: So by that you mean just any random hot woman that I'm obviously never going to get the chance to date (like pornstars, for example)? The only problem with that, is well, it's much more fun to think about girls I know. But I guess I could stop that if I have to.

Question 1: The same answer I gave you last time
Question 2: Get some girl XP points, vis a vis question 1. That will solve the fantasy problem... you'll still have them, but they won't be as consuming as these seem to be.

Seriously CM all you really need is to grow up a few years, you'll be fine.

Yonni: Nothing wrong with 15/13.

Putin: I love masturbation stories. give us more! I remember this one time I was cooking with habanero and forgot to wash my hands before rubbing one out. That was the most painful experience of my life.
@mafia: Who says I didn't use a pseudonym?
@yellowjacket: I don't remember the exact advice you gave me last time.
