Re: deviladvocating...

yes, i see what you mean. i'm sorry Dissident, thats not what i intended.

personally, i lived for years feeling lonely and unworthy and guilty about even looking at girls. a series of events, not all of them positive, resulted in me saying to myself, fuckit, i'm a decent person i don't have to feel ashamed of myself, i'm going to hang out with kids every chance i get.

and thats what i've done. there've been a few speed bumps along the way, but i feel as if my attitude to those kids is a lot healthier for having got to know them in real life, and i guess i just wanted people to see that as a possibility.

the point of it is that i felt like the girls i admired so much lived on another planet, then i had a change of perspective and discovered they actually lived on the same planet as me, and that i had something to offer them.
