They all failed mostly because communication was poor. I don't have a 'mate' either. Talking with someone about anything and doing things together I guess is a fantasy. I focused too much on it. Communication is important though. Nothing will last without it.Quote:

I don't expect this ceremony to fall over. She's been through my meltdowns, she's been through my darkest times, and she's stuck by me through it all. She's a true friend through and through. That's what I want out of the ceremony. The amount of FC's I've been in (and almost left my current one due to my contentious and conflictive attitude), means I can't trust anyone through this thread. Just too risky for me.Quote:

Hey everyone, completed the Eternal Bond quest and have a date set, we don't have a ton of friends to invite so since we met through this posting would like to invite you all to the ceremony. It will be on Jenova this Sunday at 7am server time. Just send me a tell in game and mention this thread and ill friend you and send you the invitation.
The happy couple:

It would be fantastic to have a good friend to play with whenever I'm online and to talk to (but then again, I already have an entire FC for that since most of us are rl friends), but I wouldn't expect them to devote the same level of commitment as a real life relationship.Quote:

Never realized people take this so seriously and are looking for an in game relationship.

11-19-2015, 02:45 AMTwiliteYeah I know that's directed towards me. I think people tend to read too deeply into what I say in this thread. It's pretty common that one will think I'm looking for more. I don't talk about my first EB partner often, but she was my best friend in game. We did everything and talked about everything, and not just game related. There was no "romance". I know the difference between friendships and relationships and associations. I'm tired of being treated like an associate. She provided me with what I was looking for, and unfortunately, I lost that. Perhaps karma is not done punishing me.Quote:

We also have to put up with each other's bad ways which could sour it, if not kept in check.
I'm sorry to say but running content with someone over and over is *not* the same thing if there NO connection between the two. Ya don't know me, but I've been through it all. I've befriended people that I just couldn't click with. Putting up with their silence for WEEKS before giving up on them. I take solace in the fact that I give people chances. If I want to be your friend, I'm GOING to pursue it. -
