Was leaving for GOOD

Edit 2: Apparently, I can't pull myself away from the ENTIRE SITE! LOL. I guess all the support I have recieved held me down. :D I don't mean to lay my burdens on everyone, but thanks for the support...don't worry about it, though. I don't think I need any support nor did I ask for it. I guess I'm sticking around now, so you all can celebrate. LOL. I really did think I could run from the JA. Boy, was I wrong. :D Not possible...really not possible.

Edit: Apparently, I can't pull myself away from this forum. I suppose I'm a little addicted to the site at least. Well...I haven't really QUIT, but I have slacked off a LOT. This forum is now kind of...half and half... It's about me leaving the JA, but it has turned into a discussion about me and my girlfriend. :D That's fine with me. But that doesn't drop the fact that I will leave soon. For now, I'm on standby until something good happens, so I'll post in this forum for now.
______________________________________________
Edit: Now for my original "goodbye" message...

I've had two names at the Jedi Academy. I was Sladious before I was Ale-Daramos. This is because I took a long break from playing and my account expired. Now, my friends, I believe it is time for me to leave for good.

As the usual messages about leaving say, life has pulled me away from the Academy, but it's much more complicated than that. I believe this calls for a little explanation.

First of all, I have wasted too much of my life on video games and I have quit playing them without even realizing it. Now, I feel as though I need to make up for my lost childhood I should have spent with my friends outside. I have sat around too long and I now regret the last 14 years of my life. I began playing the Atari when I was 2 and I was addicted sense then. I'm 16 and I QUIT! I don't HATE video games, but I don't find them as fun as life.

On another note, I have school almost all day now and I have no time for games. I need to study and find a way to earn money so I can move. I need to get my permit and learn to drive. I need to make things better for myself.

Last, but most certainly not least. I would like to move to Tennessee as soon as possible. Why, you might ask? It sounds typical, but the story is too complicated to explain here. There is a girl in Tennessee that I feel like I haven't been loyal enough to. She needs my help and I need hers, but we're over 9 hours away from each other. Yes, it sounds typical, but it's the fact. I love her too much to stay behind and do nothing. If I really love her, I will do anything to get to her...and that's what I'm going to do.

If you have a problem with any of this, feel free to complain. I don't plan on visiting the site again, so don't expect a response. I may have not been all that popular, but I still have to say sorry...so I'm sorry I'm leaving, guys. It's something I need to do. I can't say that I'll miss you guys, because I won't. Nothing against anyone, but I really care too much about my girlfriend to care about anything or anyone else.

SAYONARA!

I have talked to her about plans, but our plans are risky, because those are the only plans we can find. The problem is nobody in our families knows anything is going on between us and we're afraid of what will happen if we spring the news on them. Although I think I'm more freaked about the possible results than she is. HOWEVER, I'm loosening up about it. I realized that nothing good will come of this if I do nothing. It's better to take the risk and see what happens than sitting back and worrying about it forever, but I can't do anything stupid. Heh...it's all too complicated. Things need to simplify themselves a little, but I need to do something for that to happen. :D

Edit: We chat on AIM every night for hours, so I have that part covered. :D

Sounds like you have things worked out pretty well for you. :) Cherish your time with your girlfriend. You live with her, which is something I would LOVE to do with Tiffany, but...alas, I can't. Don't worry, though. I won't wish hell on your for living the life I wish I had. :D I'm happy for you, DJ.

Before my gf *finally* moved in with me we were long distance for a few years. I'm in Dallas and she was in Austin. We made a point to talk on the internet a LOT and visit each other every 2 weeks, alternating who goes where every week. It worked for me, and I'll probably marry this girl. I say talk to her about your plans. Work it out together. People in relationships do that kind of stuff.

LOL. Have you noticed that I've only posted HERE? In THIS forum? Well...I would go get her if I could. Seeing how I'm 16, my options are limited, but I haven't given up. :D

Thanks, Axion. :D
Good Charlotte IS good. It's not that she got me interested in that type of music, I just never really listened to Good Charlotte to know I liked them. :D

I'm not giving up EVERYTHING to get there. I'm not that stupid. I am still focusing on school as much as I can, though hard to do at times.

...you think I would be stupid enough to NOT get a job? :D LOL. Of course I would get a job! :D

And thanks, Silencio. :D

This sounds silly, but your post got the last song from "Grease" stuck in my head (we go together like rama lama lama di-dangety dang de-bop). :D There was a guy at one of my old jobs who moved out to Mississippi where he hew noone except the girl of his dreams. We all told him "dude youre a freakin' idiot. You'll be back in a month after you go insane." That was 3 years ago. AFAIK he's still there, married, and having the time of his life. So good on ya for going. Try and have some manner of school and/or job lined up when you get there too. True love is cool and all, but living under a bridge with your true love isn't. :)

Good luck to ya. Visit sometime. :)

Oh yeah. I'm sure Tiffany is an angel sent from above, but you should SERIOUSLY consider this whole "She got me into Good Charlotte" thing. Friends dont let friends listen to mindless "pseudo punk rock mixed with alternative strained through a used roll of toiler paper" crap drivel like Good Charlotte. Use your boyfriendly powers to change her music tastes. It's easy, and fun!

ACK...I have something ELSE to explain. heh.

By mentality, I mean maturity. I've always been told that I act older than I really am. I believed this because I always HAVE acted older.

(One thing about me: Things happen fast to me. I adapt to situations easily, I catch on to things quickly, my mood can change quickly, and my "mentality" changes quickly.)

I recently discovered my flaws and have fixed them. I was more immature than I thought, but I never realized it. What I meant by my mentality changing quickly is what has happened to me. My personality has almost changed entirely since I met Tiffany.

This shy, quiet, depressed, video game addict has turned into an outgoing, happy, video-game-deprived guy. :DI am VERY happy these days:D

I suppose this is similar to that kind of movie. I have thought about that before. LOL. :D

However, it's different...I didn't tell the crowd first. We both have known how we feel for quite a while, so it's different. :D

*thinks back to all those scenes in movies when the guy announces that he loves a certain girl to a crowed and he has to go tell her how much he feels about her and they all yell and support him*

Well go get her, do what u gotta do man, even though I do believe we never meet It's a shame u gotta leave, but RL issues are more important than the cyberworld.

Oh, it's QUITE obvious that this is like a big family. I have realized that you all care about me, which I really appreciate. :D

Currently, I am safe. As for being happy, I am, but not really. I'm generally happy, but it's that pit in my stomach that clenches when I think about my girlfriend, and it won't go away. :(

On another note, I have SOME bit of info I can share. I said I've been depressed for 4 years, no? Well, I think I did. Well, for those 4 years, I felt very little emotions, if any at all. Sadly enough, I didn't cry when my grandfather died. I felt so little emotion that I had to ACT like I was a normal person. I felt tormented for a long time...I even resorted to trying to cry, but without success.

4 years...same thing. Now Tiffany jumps into the picture and pulls my feelings out of the gutter. :D Mr. Roboto is now Dr. Feel Good. :D

Heh, we may not know your situation, nor do we want you to tell us against your will. We're just looking out for your saftey. As *strange* and *confusing* it seems, the JA IS accually kind of like a family, we all look out and care for each other.....even though it's only a video game that brings us together and most of us don't even live anywhere near eachother.....but that's besides the point. We just want you to be safe and happy, though I guess sometimes it doesn't seem like that :P. Man...I've GOT to get out of touch with my feelings again...this is driving me nuts...

Once again, I wish you and your girl the best of luck, May you go with God my friend.

Hello again.

Yes, I do not want to release the details because they're personal. Most of the details I won't release involve her life, and I will NOT do that to her. If anyone is wondering, I have no other choice but to do this. If I gave up and stayed away from her, I would suffer much more than if I can get there.

Heh...Katan. I'm not quitting video games because of her. I'm quitting video games as my own personal improvement. Not to say that I think you should all quit playing video games. They're fun and I think that they are a great way to kill time...they have even taught me many things. Like I said, it's a personal opinion. I have more things to worry about...LIKE ANIME! YAY! :) I spent $45 on anime today...and $15 on a Good Charlotte CD. My girlfriend got me interested in Good Charlotte. :)

Aeth: I may be 16, but I have the mentality of an adult...or so I've been told. My wings do exist, so I will take flight as soon as I can. You know not my situation...and you will not know my situation, so...:P :D

Ale, since it seems whenever you get bored, you check the forums, I wanted to ask you something:

Is it really nessecary to say no more video games?

You can always put the JA on hold.

No need to shut us out.

Look at Koushka, he has a wife, kids, job, life (whatever that is) and he manages video games still :D
