CONFESSIONAL thread (ANONYMOUS so tell us the juicy stuff!)

Maybe not on this board, but think about Cathlic nuns or monks who haven't done it yet or may never do it because they took a vow of chastity.
 
Sorry if I sounded somewhat patronizing. It wasn't my intention, and I only wanted to point out that people are not alone in this situation. I don't really see any problem with it. If people get laid, more power to them; if not, nothing wrong with that either. To each his own.
 
For those gay guys who find themselves attracted to Lady Gaga: I read somewhere she was born a hermaphrodite, and has a more-than-vestigial penis in those pants she dances about in.

Straight guys, think about that for a while...
 
It happens to some people.

Sorry, but it's not real. It's like falling in love with a penpal.

Until you meet in person, and establish a relationship of some kind, it's really not a romance. It's an online friendship which may or may not last when you meet IRL.

Thank goodness someone else sees it the way I do.

I can understand people falling in love with a picture of an attractive person but you don't actually LOVE the person, if you get what I mean. You can think someone is attractive and like their online persona, which could make them a fantasy for you, but love, no. You can't love someone you have never met. It's an infatuation. Until you meet the person and get to know them personally, it's not real love.

I'm afraid i must disagree.
 
Not sure why. It's like hating someone you've never met. You simply can't hate a person you have never met because you don't know them personally.


For example, Kanye West appears as a complete and utter douchebag but he has a lot of friends so maybe he isn't that much of a tard personally. If he was, I doubt anyone would even stand to be around him.


It's easy to think things about people but until you get to know them, you really can't say it's love or hate because you don't know them personally. You can hate seeing them or hate their attitude but you can't hate them as a person when you don't know them, it isn't logical, imo. Same with love. If someone here said they loved me, how can they? Based on pictures and posts? Makes no sense. How do they know how I am in reality?

I don't know, that's just my opinion.

Well, i'm gonna have to Godwin the thread and say that i hate Hitler even though i never met him. That's right, i went there. :p

He's famous. There's always gonna be someone that wants to be around him.

Once again, i must disagree. I firmly believe you can fall in love with the words and ideas of another poster. It's happened here before and it looks like it could very well happen again.

Money and fame can make people put up with a lot.

After the quite disturbing 'flaps' photo, that's been disproven ;)

Though I've found more gay men and women find her attractive than straight men. There was a hefty discussion about it on another board in which a lot of straight guys learned the term 'butterface'.

Thank goodness someone else sees it the way I do.

Thats quite an odd view. It's commonly known that people tend to be more open and revealing on the internet which can make personal feelings flow more quickly, creating a bond between the two people regardles of distance.

You mention online persona and pictures... which I always think is an odd fixation these days. Most people are fuck ugly to some, attractive to other... if the personality is right who gives a rats hat?

With online persona's... sure, some people have them, some don't, some people are keyboard warriors and some are more open. Maybe due to being shy or fuck ugly. Whatever reason... it can happen.

Terrible example.

How many of us have intimate chats with Kanye West 18 hours a day on MSN? Different scenario altogether.
 
Until you meet the person and get to know them personally, it's not real love.
And if you know someone in real life, you don't really know them until you live with them. Or travel with them. Or face death together. Or whatever. There are many different circumstances of "knowing someone."
