So, public apology for constantly whining about RP and shit. Real life I don't think is so much of an issue when I complain about it in my journal, but it feels more like unintentional guilt tripping when it's RP, because most of the people I play with on a regular basis read my journal... and, of course, without thinking of it at the time, it's ( Read more... )

Honestly, I like knowing what's going on with your life, call it whining or not. In my point of view, it shows a level of trust, that we're actually friends instead of just words on the screen. And I think it could on some level help, instead of keeping it bottled up. I don't know if it will or not, but it could, I think.

I like the people I care about to be happy. If they need to spill out what's going on, then I'll listen. I haven't honestly felt guilt tripped in any kind of way. And yes, you are most definitely one of the people that I care about. Even if the world suddenly stopped functioning in the next ten minutes and we never communicated again, I'd still think about you and care about you and hope somehow that things worked out, even if I'd never actually know. I'd probably do my best to find my way to you, so I could know ( ... )

tbh i knew lots of people with asperger's who had excellent jobs, some even without a college degree

so how do you feel about computers

Exactly... I likely won't be one of them. ><

Uh, computers are awesome and I would totally love to work on them one day, designing or drawing or programming. Ideally. But right now my hopes aren't very high, lawls.

programming is what they all did :> hell working with computers in any way both pays well and is full of people with asperger's, it's probably why i got along with all the engineers at my last job

I appreciate that you realize that I'm having issues (that I probably could've avoided if I didn't slack so much). I don't really think you're whining or guilt-tripping me, at the very least but maybe I'm not the right person to talk to when it comes to either of those things. I think that the fact that you felt bad about stuff you've said indicates, more than anything, that you care about the people you role play with/are friends with via internet/etc. etc. are, at some level, more three-dimensional than just a person on another computer in some random place in the world. And that's pretty compassionate in several ways. Or at least, I think so ( ... )
