A decade and more ago I got in trouble for some stuff I didn't really have anything to do with but was in such a way that I could not detach myself from it, so I was going to commit suicide. I made some mention of it, talked about the pragmatism of it, and while a lot of goons were like DO IT DO IT and others were kind of helpful, someone (I don't know who) did some Internet sleuthing, somehow discovered my name (which I don't recall ever giving out back then) and then found some family members and told them about it. I don't know if that saved my life, necessarily, but that action did clue my family in on what was happening, which changed the entire dynamic of everything and that wouldn't have happened otherwise. I sure wasn't going to tell my family about my plans. I was really pissed off at the time, because to me it only complicated what was supposed to be kind of a simple exit. Well, for better or worse, I'm here, still alive. It's not hard to imagine a separate universe where that person didn't make a call and I never had my family get upset with me and then poofed out of here forever.

The first time I had sex, my girlfriend was late on her period and we were both freaking out and we asked SA what we should do. Turned out nothing, nothing was wrong, but man those were some times. edit for fun anecdote: she was an Australian girl, 16, and I was an American guy, 15. We had met on the Internet two years prior, and my father bought me a plane ticket to Australia, where I stayed with her... like, sleeping in her bed, for three weeks, with her parents' blessing. How weird to think about it now, all these years later. edit 2: this was in 2001, but before 9/11. We're still friends all these years later. I saw her again not long ago. edit 3: but holy poo poo what were our parents thinking? We were "engaged" to one another. 15 and 16 year-olds are not mature enough to get married! credburn has a new favorite as of 07:18 on Feb 23, 2023 |
