OT: Days of our Lives aka the Beacon's Billboard

Hi fellas, I'm right here :king:

I'm sorry for your loss Nacaa, I know how you feel, trust me.
I've not really had the time for forum talks lately, but I'll be dropping in from time to time, especially when I'm at work. I've just had the best and also the worst weekend... It started out yesterday morning, up at 8 am a saturday morning to start preppin' for my gf's arrival. I cleaned everything, did the dishes then went for a spinning class. Afterwards I had to go to my dads to get some laundry, then back to the city to shop for dinner etc. I had to buy something for us to eat. Then I went to a good friend of mine's birthday. She's been my friend since junior school, and it's was cosy. Got outta there at around 16:30 then rushed to the mall for some romantic candles and decorations. I made okay time I thought, since I was positive that I had to pick up my gf at 18:30 from work (she lives an hour drive from me). I shopped and rushed back home, made a small but very romatic scenery at my bookcase with some decorative roses, candles and other flowers. I then hurried to my dads again since I forgot something, and drove off to pick up my girl. Shortly after she called me asking where I was.....
It turned out I was to pick her up at 17:30 and NOT 18:30 which I had foolishly misunderstood. She cried alot and so did I... I have never in my entire life been more sad. A stupid stupid mistake, and it almost cost me my life, since I drove 170 km/t at a highway in stormy rain and I lost grip a couple of times. But I didn't care. To loose her would be worse than anything. I know I wouldn't have lost her from this. It was a mistake by me, foolish and stupid but still only a mistake.
When I finally reached her town she was walking by the road, I stopped by her, ran out and dropped at her knees, holding her and crying. Maybe I was overreacting a bit but I was so worried and so sad that I had screwed up what was going to be the perfect romantic evening. She forgave me almost immediately and drove back home with me. We then had a perfect romantic evening, talked alot, cried some and were happy too. I love her. I love her so much that I'm crying right now just by thinking of her. She means everything to me, and without her I'm lost. She's my best friend...



Edit: yay! Post no. 100 in this thread! :thumbsup: hehe. Keep it up guys!
 
Howdy Boys....

@Nacaa - Glad to see you back in one piece....and I am greatly sorry for your loss friend. Things are not going to be easy and what Im about to tell you..you probably wont want to hear. At your age things always seem so damn tough....you arent necessarily happy in a relationship and then when your out of one your sad that you have lost everything you had. Chances are it will be near impossible to remain friends...its to hard to try to keep contact after a break up.....but honestly is there anything that you can get out of her friendship wise that you cant get out of your best M8? What you need to do is spend time with your boys...this will help ALOT. Go out enjoy life....and the best way to get over it is to find a new girl that you think has qualities you like...and doesnt have the ones your ex did which you didnt like. This way you are always weeding out girls which you know you arent compatible with and always heading towards "the one." Your attidue on plenty o fish in the sea is a good one.....there are 4.5 billion girls in the world...you shouldnt let not having one of them hold you back from the REST of your life....you are young there is much more to see and do...keep this in mind my friend.

@Rizzo....you are one dramtic dude :lol: . While I can understand that you were upset you shouldnt have put your life in jeapordy because of it...then both of you would be really sorry if you had died. Im sure she would have forgiven you had you not driven there going 170 kmph. I am glad that your safe and things worked out as planned....and even more so that your relationship has grown stronger from the experience.

@corax - good luck with your exams bud! I hate school....so glad Im not in it anymore...muwhahahah!

@DougTheHead - how goes the child rearing?

@Method / oapwm - oi where you been at? Your needed here, nacaa is calling us out in force!

j00 n00bz0r!!!!!!.. i wish my car went that fast. top speed: 100 km/h:surprise:
not the brighest idea there. i understand both of you being upset and eveything but im sure another 10-20 minutes wouldn't of really matter'd anyway. good to hear that notyhing bad came of it.

anyway ive got to run im off to job interview and i got to have a shower shave and what not and get decked out in my nerd outfit :wave: ill see you all tonight to let you know how i went. oh and a point of irony, its a group interview for up to 10 people. im the only person booked in for it :grrr:
ciao
 
Corax: :lol:

Ronin: Yeah but I felt really sad, and wanted to see her asap. You probably know the feeling...

Nacaa: How are you feeling now when a few days have passed? You know if you don't wanna loose her as a friend, it's all up to you. Just keep talking to her once in a while and you'll stay friends.
 
@Rizzo...hehe...still M8 you are a pretty dramatic guy....:). I dont think I have ever fallen to my knees and shed a tear...... It is good that you have emotion and passion in your relationship though, so Im not knocking on you at all. Its nice to see that youve got a good relationship going with a fair amount of intensity for each other. Well us married guys on the other hand...hehehe...we have wronged our significant other tons of times...and much worse than accidently coming an hour late...you learn to get over small things like that pretty easily otherwise life would be nuts! But I can understand that you really wanted to get to her...IIRC I have done some similar things in the past...rushed off asap to mend the situation even though I was speeding like mad. Glad things worked out!

ronin's got the right idea. me and my girlfriend have things like that on occasion. but if we got hyped up too much about it then we would all go insane. every single one of us. :drink: these help too. except she wont let me drink. grr and i have no drinking buddies as my friends are all nerds. damn.

took apart the dodgy weed-eater thingy today and i was making it into a fan to help stop the computer overheating but my father cut through the cables :grrr:
so while he's out tomorow im going to go out and fix them

if you aren't stalking me, I've gotta stalk you, it's in the rules, my hands are tied
 
thats the tough part of changing avatars constantly, every once in awhile is one that alot of people like and it's harder to change to the next one, but... I spose I will try and keep this one for atleast the rest of the month

*grabs his guiness book and gets ready to make a new entry*

you should get rizzo to draw you a tar. like my well hung elefant that he drew. heh

this day seems odd. its onle 11am but it feels like it should be alot later. like 4-5pm. cos its all overcast and cos i was up all night playing d2. :surprise:
 
This is the first time I've read this thread. It's good to see a thread that talks about peoples issues in the real world and not just D2.

It must be that time of year, everyone seems somewhat down prior to Christmas, and I must admit that I too have been feeling the pressures of life over the last month. Mostly work related issues, ( I manage a branch of a property maintenance company in Oz ). Let me tell you, having staff complaining, clients complaining (though I try to keep this to a minimum :lol: ), and a girlfriend that thinks I take my work home with me too much, gets you down at times.

I just keep remembering a good mates words, "It could be worse".

Too true I say!!!!! When it really comes down to it, we have food, shelter, the wonderful SPF and of course D2 (killing imaginary baddies really relieves stress).

There are many others that don't have these luxuries.

Anyway, nice to know this thread exists and good to meet you all. I hope this post hasn't been too philisophical.

Cheers,

Grogs.

Yeah sorry about the no reply, people always tell me I'm slack like that.

Play Tribes????? Never heard of it. Must look at that intro tread............

Yeah nothing too wrong with Australia, though I was born in NZ, I've lived here for 10 years, and wouldn't have it any other way. :thumbsup:

Hi Grogs :wave:

Haven't seen you around here before, nice to see a new face join our RL discussions. I've always wanted to go to Australia or NZ, I've heard so many great things about those places. My mom has just been down under for 3 weeks... I want to go too!! :rant: hehe

It's a great day here in Denmark. The sun is shining and I woke up besides my beautiful girlfriend. We've just showered and are going down town now to shop a bit, and just relax and have fun. She was really tired yesterday, worked 12½ hours, so as you can imagine, we had a good long nights sleep. I love to sleep, nothing's better (well maybe, but it's great to sleep :D). I don't get to sleep much when I'm back home. I always to go bed late, and that's a bad habit. It usually disrupts the next day...

Have a nice day all! See you around!

Ahh the variety offered by single life....I think....I think I can recall what it was like back then...hehehe. Enjoy it while you can! One day...all of a sudden you will be forced into serious adult hood without even the slightest bit of transition.....at first it sux but it gets better with time. :lol: Glad your so into your relationship Rizzo...very inspiring/dramatic hehehe. In LA things SUCK right now....raining cats and dogs and my backyard is flooded again. Im at work but worried that my wife will have to try and take the dogs out to the bathroom in the rain...I did this last night and it was horrible. Good day all!

@grogs - Welcome to the RL thread here grogs....we are pretty much the only regulars around. Nice to see a new face....BTW grats on those awesome finds.

Im feeling alot better. Sitting here in the army now in the computer room :) Just found out we had one after 2 ½ week heh. The army is really cool now since we arent doing the boring things you have to do first. Now all we do is marching, shooting, putting out fires and so. Really neat if you ask me. I have made alot of friends here so life aint that tough. And lately, I have just been thinking of the downsides of my ex and really, it was the best thing... that we broke up. I was just annoyed most of the time and it wouldn't have worked in the long run no matter how much I still wanted it :)

The army really makes it alot easier to forget than if I was at home all the time.

Rizzo: Wow :) Thats speedy for being late. But I know what you felt at that moment. It's easy to be smarter afterwards.
 
HowD Nacaa....nice to see you around! You get a look at all the support that flocked in? heheh. Glad your feeling better....you have got a lot to look forward to in your youth! So you still playing D2?
