Hey everyone! I don't post on here super often, but I've been laid up for a week now and I'm going a little crazy. Total cabin fever.

I used to see forums like this on the internet back home, and I thought it might be kind of fun here too, so I thought I'd give it a try, because reading those forums was always a lot of fun.

So, Crowd-Sourced Relationship Advice!

I turned on anonymous posting on here, so you can make a fake username and submit a description of a problem that you're having in your relationships, either romantic or at work or whatever, and other anonymous people can give you advice!

Or you can stay logged in on your real account. Up to you!

[ Chase actually earns himself a snort of amusement good job Chase. ]

you've tried it yourself?

[bastardofipswich]

nah i never apologize

[volitaunt]

that explains more than it doesn't.

'life coach' you are not.

[bastardofipswich]

hey!
i could've done worse at this
i could've given such amazing advice as "just say you're sorry :("

[volitaunt]

[ Another small laugh. ]

you mean throwing a very sorry rock through someone's window doesn't actually count as an apology?

[bastardofipswich]

it's a very forceful apology
an aggressive apology
you know what they say
actions speak louder than words!

[volitaunt]

and breaking glass speaks loudest of all?

thanks, though. for not just saying 'apologize'. i screwed up. bad.

[bastardofipswich]

now you're getting it

what'd you do?

[volitaunt]

betrayed someone. trusted them, made them trust me, took it away. someone who

he doesn't trust easy

[bastardofipswich]

oh
i've kinda done that before

[volitaunt]

yeah?

have to ask--did you break the never apologize rule?

[bastardofipswich]

no

[ After some thought, he sends a second message. Time for some ACTUAL SERIOUSNESS: ]

i might've though
eventually

[volitaunt]

don't have the chance any more?

[bastardofipswich]

nope

so idk
i guess that makes me a cauuuutionaaaary taaaale 👻

[volitaunt]

maybe. or it just makes you human.

[bastardofipswich]

being human kind of sucks
let's get refunds

[volitaunt]

being a sentient in general kind of sucks

most days i prefer it to the alternative, though

[bastardofipswich]

counterpoint: have you ever tried the alternative?
maybe it's pretty cool

[volitaunt]

more like pretty final.

not being able to help my friends, to fight my war, see my family?

i'll take the shit and shovel it along with the rest of the universe.

[bastardofipswich]

yeah i guess those are good incentives
but some of us don't have any of that so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[volitaunt]

[ Look at that, Poe is taking a minute to consider his answer. MIRACLES. ]

don't have it back home or don't have it here? i could help with one of those, anyway.

[bastardofipswich]

back home
jury's still out on this place
who knows! dying might've actually been an improvement for me

[volitaunt]

well, shit.

[bastardofipswich]

i know right???
luckily i've still got an AMAZING disposition
all things considered ;)

[volitaunt]
