hey now Rehiro, just cause he gets along with girls better means nothing. I get along with boys better on average, but that might be because I have never had interest in terribley girly things. Also I seem to frighten girls interested in popularity.
Gee I just opened a deviant account under pressure from my best friend. I hope I do not have trouble with this idiot you mention. I don't mind critques, they help me grow, point out things I can fix. But personal attacks just prove someone needs a life, and needs to get some talent or something.

I sincerely hope you don't encounter him either... He accuses me of having no life... Who's the one spending his time insulting people he doesn't even know online, then? .-. Seriously.
On a similar note, I'd bet half the people on DA made their accounts because of a friend (whether pressured or merely suggested may vary). Even my account was made coz my (former) friend Zoom told me to. And then most of my other friends followed suit so they could continue to look at my stuff.

Hey, I scooted away from the group hug because I didnt feel like a hug, not that I thought Taimatsu getting along better with girls meant anything.

*cocks head to the left* What WOULD getting along better with girls mean, anyway? I'd think it'd be 'getting along better with boys' that'd raise eyebrows...?

*eyes narrow* You've gone aggressive Taimatsu. Was it because of something I said, or lysinias?

Agressive? No, I'm genuinely puzzled. I'm sorry to have come off as such. I hearby propose to drop the subject entirely, and perhaps get back on the board's topic (I've forgotten what it is entirely), so as I don't offend anyone else by accident, which seems to be a problem of mine...

I had a dream! AND I remember it! But I have homework, so I'll put it up later.
Also, I tend to get along pretty much equally with both genders. I grew up around boys, but I'm generally more comfortable around friend-girls. I can show affection to girls without it being 'weird' or gaining more rumors.

Maybe it'd best be continued over the board's PM system...? That way, things that might offend others wouldn't be overheard. =) And you can be more open and personal that way. I don't mind; ask me anything.

I dunno, we all seem pretty open-minded here. I also will take any questions you wanna throw at me.

I just dun wanna accidentally offend anyone again... Also, there's some things I like to keep more private (especially pertaining to this topic) and don't want out for public consumption. I dun tell these things to just anyone, and, as the PM is more or less a private method of communication, it lets people get to know each other better, yeah? Lets me get to know you to where I can tell my secret stuff... Yeah... *trails off*

Post by lysinias on Oct 19, 2005 13:37:01 GMT -5
I'd be willing to answer any questions or anything. And I don't mind recieving messages over the PM either. Also, I'm always willing to talk over instant message systems, just say you're adding me so I know who you are. ;D

Yeah, I have a weird social life. My school is seperated into different social categories by nature and many seperate smaller groups of people, though nobody knows this coz nobody looks further than their own social category (I actually did a study on this).
I refused to be categorized and I somehow managed to cram myself into the middle of all categories. Everyone trying to convert me. I was and still am acknowledged by all people and invisable to no one.
I started out, when I first got to highschool, by initiating a spot with a few of my former ally's (both male). The spot was on the bottom floor of the school and it was a crowded and cramped place. When your young and scared, you sometimes seek the security of the crowd, but one day my ally's decided to move and I was forced to decide where my priorities were. To my land or to my people. I chose land. They left and refused to later acknowledge me.
I held to the spot but I soon realized that it was getting pushed around because of the crowd and I realized it was time to find a new one.
I explored the school fully and put research into the population and people of each place. I decided that I would take a spot on one the of the largest, and least populated areas. A place of loners and small groups of people. I researched who sat where, how far apart was usually thought to be acceptable and what was thought to be prime land.
I started spending half my time in my old spot and then half my time looking for and sitting in new spots. I eventually narrowed it down to two spots and eventually decided on this one spot with a green pillar because it would be easier to recognize and because it completely avaided anyone I wanted to avoid.
I held to that spot like a vicious animal. Eventually I made another friend and we sat in the spot together, but I wouldnt let him sit at the pillar. He began to associate it with a position of power and war waged. A combination of psychological tactics, competition of who could get their faster and even came to physical blows a few times.
Through my new friend and competition, more ally's came, but we never told them of the constant battle for the pillar that was really going on beneath the surface. One time I got knocked down and kicked in the ribs by my friend whom to the eyes of the others seemed completely unprovoked (by the way, I held the pillar and my friend stormed off, so I was successful, just so you know). I had to explain about the war and competition for the pillar and, while I expected to have much, much more competition on my hands, the next day, my friend, the spots second as is his current title, was forcably removed from the pillar and I was elected to hold the pillar. Ever since then, I have held the pillar.
The spot has a total of 5 consistant primary residants and many more who move in and out. Unfortunately it is void of females somehow, and I now realize that if I expect to hold the pillar and remain leader, I will be unable to have any relationships with females unless I am able to convert some. So now I look towards the future in the hopes to find a means of converting some of the opposite sex.
Aaaaanyways, im mostly the only person who takes anything like that to such an extent, so dont go thinking we're all a bunch of crazy, irritating people like me. I WILL NOT HAVE MY PEOPLE PREJUDICED LIKE THAT!!!!!!

Without being drastic, I somehow have secured a mental spot, between the different catagories. The preps, aknoledge and talk to me, often asking for help, the goths have never looked down on me as one of the 'ignorants'. That sort of thing. I just kind of live in the middle, andI like it there.

wow, If I was at your school, I would gladly join your group rehiro. That is if you would ask me. It sounds like my sorta place.
Me, I've always been the one without a group. People attempt to categorize me as they please, but they always fail. The best anyone's ever done was teachers pet.
I don't fit into social categories well, I like to let everyone know about me from the first, and if they don't like something, too bad. I have learned that makes people unable to say I am one thing or another. I also keep to myself.
The only people I have had trouble with are the people who like to think they are better than me. I get on their nerves, because I acknowledge where they are actually better than me(usually not much), yet I am unintimidated by them. I also am good at pointing out faults when I feel like it, it is very useful when debating, but it can be easily turned towards people rather than points in an argument. And when someone like this makes a comment about how they don't like something about me, I make it a point to have it obvious when they are around.

Hooray! ;D I would gladly accept you into our group lysinias! That is, if I did ask you. I guess your right, I cant just wait for girls to flock to the pillar on their own. I have to go on the offensive.
But what do I do? Just ask?:
"Hello, im from the spot across the way, and we are in a terrible lack for females, I have come to ask if you would consider converting or perhaps just visiting one day to observe our ways and see if you would consider it"
To me, that sounds just a little crazy.
However, I have the school mentally mapped out and now I have some idea for potential converts.

Or you could just, you know, introduce yourself and talk to girls, and after a while, if you get along, they'll come over in the morning all by themselves. Honest. We do that.
Orrr, you could give that little speech. K'd think it was funny and give it a try, but I'm weird, so don't base stuff off of me.

I know! Your so right! Thats what my old ally who transferred to this school and then left the spot said. "Just talk to people" he said to me. I knew he was right but I told him that he was crazy.
Im so intimidating to people though. Im always so quiet and non sociable beyond my own group of people.
Oh, by the way, im going to have to throw some dream analysis stuff back into this thread eventually.

Rehiro: Really? Coz I have some really weird ones, and I've always wanted to know someone who knew how to analyse that sort of thing. Silverwolf: Girls visit people's houses? Wild. I don't think there's been a girl my age within a hundred meters of my house.

I'd gladly join the group, Rehiro! I just.... Don't really know if I'm worthy...
I usually am categorized as "Weird" with a capital "w." The only "friends" I have are my stalker boys. They scare meeeee...

I have issues approaching people myself rehiro. You could try my tactic, approach those not in a group. It has always worked. Be friendly and just talk. Or you could just give that speech. I know if you gave that speech to me I'd go " HECK Yeah!" Also saying " Hey, you wanna join us over by the pillar?" or something like that.

Taimatsu: Sure. I just need to do some more analysis on Amelius first. I could probably fit you in before I finish up with Amelius, but it will still probably be a bit of a wait. Just post your dreams and i'll get around to it.
Shippo: At your age, you would be an ideal person to pass the pillar down to. You could become my succesor and carry on the ways of my people after I was gone. Of course you would have to fall subject to the test of time to see if you were faithfull and I would have to make judgement over whether or not you would uphold my ways.
But if you just wanted to be a citizen, then im sure that you would be worthy. But im not sure how much you could stand being ground to one spot...
Hey, I used to have stalker girls. They werent very good at stalking though. I always knew they were there. Now they have either stopped or gotten much better *sweat drop*
General: We have tales and legacies behind our spot too. Did you know that me and the spots second are solely responsible for the destruction of a group so large that it nearly became a category?

I can stand being ground to one spot. I beleive I could stand the test of time..... now getting to your school is the problem ^^;;; My stalker boys (8 in all) are more like stalker orcs than anything else. When I lost a bet, and had to wear a schoolgirl outfit to school.... He took a picture of me... by diving on the ground and snapping a shot up my skirt.... * *

Rehiro, I want to hear the story behind destorying that group.
And I can't believe that boy did that to you Shippo! I would've stomped on his head before he managed to get up off the ground. And then kicked him down to the office.
Yeah people don't mess with me without getting hurt, and somehow I never get in trouble, people seem to think I am justified.
