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!

Ale, you keep saying 'you don't know the details', and then ppl just keep saying the same thing about puppy love and stuff like that.
But if you want ppl to understand (which would be partly why you created this thread), then tell us the details.
Unless it's a hugely private thing, in which case ignore everything I just said.

Apparently, I keep checking this forum. I just don't like the idea of you all not wanting me to go for this.

Thanks for the support, guys. But I have one more thing to say to Ash. Don't worry, I'm not ranting this time. :D

Thanks for the advice and all, but I can't take it. This is MUCH more complicated than I have explained, so you don't know the details. I don't have a serious crush and it's not with someone that's oblivious about it(I don't know if that was your situation). I have no crush, but a serious LOVE. We both love each other, so neither of us can leave. I know this for fact because I have really loved a girl before, but she did infact leave. I thought I couldn't love a person more...then I met Tiffany and she proved me wrong. I may be only 16, but I've experienced much more than you think. I've tried and tried to prove that I don't love her as much as I thought, but I can NOT prove myself wrong. No matter what I do, I can't stop loving her. I may be repeating myself now, so I'll stop here.

Sorry if I WAS ranting, but I can't help it. Thanks again for your advice. I can tell that you don't want me to ruin things, and I appreciate that. But my head is clear, my thoughts are straight, and my heart is right. :) SAYONARA

I'm kinda like that, but I don't have a g/f to give it all up FOR. So I guess I'll keep playing. But it's good that you're that devoted to your purposes.

Good luck then

look you can do whatever you want. your life is your life and that is the path you have choosen. i just wanted to give you some advice.

with my mention of college im just saying that alot happens in college. it will shape your life more then anything else. im not promoting partying or womanizing or any of that. im just saying that college is that point in your life where you discover true friends and learn how to take control of your life.

see i want to give you advice because i was once like you. at that exact age i too thought i was in love. i thought that no matter what, my heart would guide me to that person. this was true love. it was ment to be. i would not allow myself to lose this person. but she left. for three years i thought of nothing but her. every morning and every night i thought of this person. i did not know how to move on.....but i did.

im older now and i can still see why i fell for this person but im happy i did not make a rash decision. i learned that i was just young. my heart was in the right place but it was just too early in life. there is still so much ahead to look forward to.

your heart is also in the right place but that alone should not be a decision maker. when you follow your heart you must also ask yourself wheather or not you are also being nieve.

i know nothing i say will change your mind but i hope you at least think out your decision before acting upon it.
where ever you path takes you i wish you good luck.

Well, if you've got to go, then you've got to go. I admire your sense of responsibility, and wish you the best of luck :D. Just follow you're heart man, though it'll often get you into trouble :P. Just a bit of advice from me. Whatever you're going to do, do it and stick with it all the way. Even if it turns out bad, a man has to take responsibility for the choices that he's made (not to say that in a bad way, heck, I take that value to heart myself). Stare life straight in the face, then headbutt 'em if he gives ya s***. Also, I wish you and your girl the best of luck, just be careful man. At that age, they say they care, but they'll drop you like you ment absolutly nothing and not shead a tear over it. Heh, ok, enough of my downers :D. Good luck my friend, May you go with God (w00t, trigun :)).

Yeah...I'm done now....

Hi Ale. Good luck in RL. That should always come first. True love is hard to find so if you think you have found it, then you are definitely doing the right thing. I know because I myself have found that in Koyi. Good luck and much happiness to you. :)

Yes, I said I wouldn't visit the site again. However, I am bored and I was curious what you all had to say about this.

I'll reply to each person in order.

Aphex: Cheer up, man. Sorry I'm leaving, but I am serious about this. I know what you mean by girls being bad news, but she isn't. Trust me on this.

YinYang: Yes, I'm only 16. Is there something wrong with finding love that young? I am enjoying life much more than I ever have, so that's not a problem. In fact, I enjoy life so much that the only stress I feel is not being with her. I've never felt the need to have someone to share my life with. This...is...NOT...puppy love. I'm dead serious about this. Trust me.

Dark Blade: Cya, man. Sorry.

Qui Gon JiM: Cheers.

Kueller: Thanks, man. I appreciate that. I truly am thinking with my heart and I'm going with that. In fact, I'm living in the present, but I have to plan SOMETHING or this will never work out well. Thanks again for the encouraging words. :D

Darkwood: :D Life says "Hi".

Ash: ...ok...this is not stupid. This is not about women and fun. I don't care that I'm only 16. I don't care about the 9 hour distance. I don't want to chill out and wait until I'm 20. It's out of the question.

Katan: Ah crap...sorry, man. The clan hadn't crossed my mind. I've had too much on my mind lately. As for not missing anyone...I really don't think I will all that much. I really don't get that attached to people online. It's just a personal safety measure thingy. But I am sorry about all this. Don't get too stressed over this, Katan. You were one of my best JA buds, so that does make me feel sorry about this. I wish you luck with anything you wish to do in the future. CYA later.

Jedi_Prodigy: ...I respect girls more than you must think. On top of that, I'm Catholic and I'm nowhere near as perverted as a lot of you guys are. Give it a rest. I respect her and will never do anything like that.

Everyone: This is more serious than you think. If I gave you all of the details, you would understand better. I will not forget her, I will not give up, and I will stay true to her. There is nothing anybody can say to make me think otherwise. I love her too much to let this slip. I'm happier than I EVER have been and I'm going to take this chance to improve my life. Sorry if I sound like a jerk about all of this, but I am dissapointed that there are so many people that don't want me to do this.

I love her and there is no way that will change.

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

Go for it dude, never let games get more important then your life. Since I'm about same age as you are maybe I can give some advice to you: Girls are fantastic, I had a 1.5 year relation. I always thought we were gonna end up marrying. Well, we split up as good friends, still see eachother often and laugh about the old days. I'm not saying that you need to let go of the girl. It seems that you have decided that she is worth the trouble, if you think that with your heart then go for it. But 1 tip, don't think about the future to much, let things go as they go, don't try to plan everything ahead and just enjoy the moment. I learnt it the hard way it's the easiest and most fun way to live. Good luck with your school and your friends. And I hope you will find your happiness and luck in your life.

Although as u said u wont check this forum again
heres my 2cence...
1.Your only 16 u dont have to make SUPER DUPER choices yet so relax.
2.Since ur still in school all u need to worry about is passing High School.
Im frikin 19 I have a job,HAVE to go to college every other day or so AND I have to study and practice my martial arts and I'm doin ok.
3.Your makin it seem as if u no time left AT AL:L like ur gonn aget married have kids have liek a 50hour weekly job and do overnighters EVERDAY..relax ur still a kid ENJOY life dont go over stressing urself.I understand school is important and ur "girlfriend"is as well but u gotta relax whne ur an adult ur gonna be evn MORE stressed if ur over-stressed right now.

This may sound a BIT to harsh but for ur girl friend What if its just puppy love what if in time u dump her or she dumps u for whos what reason,sure everyone wants a person to share their life with but ur still a teenager no need to make adult choices u dotn HAVE to make.

But all in all I hoep everything goes in the right way 4 u as for the JA I'm sure we'll all hope to see ya in JK JA.
take care
