I confess I absolutely don't understand why couples feel the need to discuss their issues with each other on a public message board. I just don't get it. At all. It seems like it would only make things worse.

I confess I understand one person of the couple talking about it on a message board, like you'd talk with friends.

I confess I rather like Geeky and he was very kind to me when I was very sad a couple months ago.

I confess I've done desparate things when in a bad spot in a relationship when I felt like I was grasping at straws for something, anything. And I've come to the conclusion that when you are grapsing, it's usually best to just let go.

I confess that I don't think any less of Geeky and his love for doing what they feel they need to do, and even though I might sound like a bit of a bitch in the confessions above, I'm not.

I confess that I find the continual 3playa discussions to be pointless and stupid. There are many other message boards out there. Who cares.

I confess that, after meeting her, I can't imagine anyone thinking velvet a bitch.

I also confess to my lack of understanding of the this board that board issues. Well, I confess I might have an inkling but I confess that I find I don't know why people let it become an issue here.

I confess (as a relatively new outsider looking in) it goes over my head as well.

>it goes over my head as well.

it has to do more with feelings of rejection and lack of empowerment than it does with individual personalities, for the most part...

btw - i confess that i would have enjoyed having both rtw & stuart continue their presence on the 3playa, but i don't feel slighted by their choices: i know where to find them if i want them...

stuart · Post by **stuart** » Wed Jan 05, 2005 6:26 pm

I might enjoy that as well but I fear the startup costs

gigglesnort · Post by **gigglesnort** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 5:38 am

I confess I am in a really really shitty mood today (ah, pms).

I confess it was really nice to have bucket say to me 'good to see you this morning, giggs,' and I felt the same way about seeing him (ah, the land of endless affirmations).

I confess I really use the word really way too much.

I confess I'm really tired of posting about my struggle between working and eplaya-ing, although it remains in the forefront of my so-called reality.

Donita · Post by **Donita** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 7:14 am

I confess I have nothing to confess.
I confess I keep secrets sometimes and don't confess them.
I confess that when I don't want to confess, then I confess.
I confess I need some coffee.

i confess that i wondered, when kristines came on, if she was a sock.

Kristines · Post by **Kristines** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:19 am

I confess I wish I belonged here but don't know how to do it.
I confess I am jealous of the way Burning Man seems to be a more important part of his life than I am.
I confess that I know nothing about Burning Man and probably should just shut the fuck up about it.
I confess that my family is broken and I have no idea how to fix it.
I confess I am very, very afraid.

Based on what was said on the bar thread after you left last night, you may have a chance. You're winning points with your honesty--a lot of us have been to simelar places in our lives.

Long term, you might want to find some other sort of referee than the board--that could burn us out on both of you.

I understand how hard it is to find a way to burn when it is a big part of your partner's life, in a way you don't directly share. That's actually one of the main reasons I started posting here after the 03 burn. Tagging along after the MrFishist wasn't enough reason to go there. I've met a lot of people whom I respect and like on this board and although I had an abbrevated event last year, finding and meeting people in 3d was amazing.

Kristines · Post by **Kristines** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:39 am

I confess I fear it might make things worse.
I confess hoping the opposite.
I confess I'm ashamed that you don't think I'm appropriate.
I confess I love him too much to just stop grasping at straws.

Whoops. Not what I wanted you to get from me. I was trying to give you hope--at least in earning a place on the board. (I simply don't have the info on the other.) And hope for finding a place on the playa as well, if it's something you want. I hope it makes things better--what ever "better" may be.

I confess I don't know what I'm talking about, my own marriage failed a in 2000. After trying individual counseling we never made it to the marriage counselor point. We had become different people and even though we loved each other and didn't want to lose our union, our differences were to great for us to be happy with what it had become and there was no way to make it something we could each be happy with. We divorced at a point that we could still be good friends, and IM often. The distance makes it easier.

I have know Idea what you guys differences are and don't really want to know. Only you two can decide if you will be able to work out your differences and find compromises you each can live with.

I know it's hard to understand how a virtual community like E-play or the greater community of interest that Burning Man is can compete with real life. I think the first thing you have to consider this is a form of real life. We have each found our own ways of being a part of it, you can too, if you want to.

We love George even though there are times we can't stand him. many of us feel the same way towards you., and hope what ever happens with your relationship that you will fair well and find happiness.

I confess that this whole Geekie/Kristines makes me feel funny, and not in the good way.

i also confess that i just unloaded some different frustrations on two unsuspecting viictims on the Tickets thread, and i don't feel a bit bad about it.

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 11:40 am

oi. i confess that hurting year after year is really hard to take, and i get tired of being brave and strong and shit and i want to curl up with someone and cry for a good 15 seconds.

i confess that the above makes me feel like a wimpy dumbass motherfucker.

Not me, I feel great, like Superman! (I confess this makes me feel like a dumbass delusional motherfucker. smooches and sighs.)

Getting ready for the bus run.....I confess the Magic Mama Bus isn't really a bus at all but a used and abused little Honda Civic. (we look like an army of clowns piling out of a teensy clown car......the kids just keep pouring out....how did they all get in there??)

Honest to God people! Yeah, I read those stupid fucking comments she's referring to... Nice touch. That was almost like real empathy.

This person (Kristines) needs some support people. If the 4WotA wanted to show they're not just a lot of hot-air, this would be the time to prove it. Unless talking on and on about masturbation is the limits of your powers. And before you get huffy with ME, remember who the fuck came up with that term (4WotA) in the first place.

(Oooo, feels good to get pissed off once in a while)

i confess that i thought sensei was smart enough to realise that there are other modes of communication than the threads.
i further confess that this is a bit of a sticky situation, but surly is attempting to walk a thin line. and will probably live to regret even making the attempt.
