There are many beautiful women in the US. If you don't agree you're either gay or your standards aren't realistic. Also, beauty matters little if the woman has no personality.

I'm not sure her second email was intended to be rude. Of course, since I haven't read it I'm not really qualified to say that.. But really, after denying her apology you couldn't expect her to be friendly. I've been terrorized by bullies too, so I do understand how much the things they do and say hurt. However.. if you can't forgive them, you can't really move past what they did to you.

Err.. Do any of you know what late-term abortion is? The baby is basically fully formed. Let's see.. wikipedia says:

"Under the Intact D&X method, the largest part of the fetus (the head) is reduced in diameter to allow vaginal passage. According to the American Medical Association, this procedure has four main elements. First, the cervix is dilated. Second, the fetus is positioned for a footling breech. Third, the fetus is partially pulled out, starting with the feet, as far as the neck. Fourth, the brain and material inside the skull is evacuated, so that a dead but otherwise intact fetus can be delivered via the vagina."

The bastard deserved to die. Killing babies is disgusting and inhuman.

Taylor, I sympathize. I'm 22 and in an electric wheelchair.. Most of the girls my age can't see past the wheelchair. The girls I like see me as a brother. One day you'll find a guy who doesn't care if you're missing all your limbs.

You're just friends but you won't date anyone because you don't think she'll stay your friend? Sounds like she's more than just a friend.. Just my two cents.
Anyway, it depends on the people involved. If neither of them feels chemistry then there is no reason they can't be just friends.
Personally.. I tend to develop feelings for my female friends. Not all of em, just the close ones.

Sorry to say, I've never really seen a single MMO attempt to encourage sex with an NPC, nor have I seen one where this is even POSSIBLE. Age of Conan may hint at it, but so far I haven't played an MMORPG where sex is even an issue unless someone brings it up. Second Life doesn't count, being a virtual world. Seriously, if someone DID form a serious attachment to an NPC, they would need psychological counseling. NPC responses are pre-determined, just as they are in single-player games. I also believe the idea that personal relationships suffer due to video games is fairly ignorant and somewhat discriminatory in nature. How many couples have you polled about this issue? I agree, it's not healthy, but I don't think it's an issue. Personally, computer-generated girls don't interest me in the slightest, so I just don't see how anyone could be interested in them. Also.. what do you think of The Sims series? I think those games should pretty much be the model for exploring sex in games, if such a thing is even necessary. Mass Effect seemed to do a fairly good job as well, in my opinion. Kept it from being central to the story.

Lucky man to be over there kicking ass. Sadly I can't fight, but if I weren't disabled I'd be over there in a heartbeat.

Sounds like some people are jealous of her fame.. I think every human being is interesting. To claim that someone has no talent is to deny the individuality of mankind. Everyone has a talent. No one in the world is talentless, no one is useless. Everyone has a purpose. God uses us all in different ways, for different reasons. But make no mistake.. The one thing we all have in common is that everyone is different.

Uhh.. I'm pretty sure this game isn't turn-based.
