A Proper Pariah's Polemic

[reynier]

I'm getting burnt by playing with Tir Ysgithr anymore:  I'm tired of showing up, putting myself out there, carrying myself with an optimistic demeanor, and being avoided, received without any enthusiasm, seeing an absolute lack of want for my presence, or having an elephant in the room for almost every conversation.

SO I DUMPED THE NEW BARONIAL

Um.... Wait, whut?

Who is Joany? What happened?

Dammit, I am so out of touch of what is going on in the Barony anymore, I'm not sure if that's good or bad. >_

[reynier]

XD That counts in your favor, Icka! /hug

Seriously?! I am so clueless. I had no idea she was the Baronial favorite. I am obviously hanging out with wrong people. Whatever.

And can I say I find it incredibly disingenuous for Ed to be all offended about Vallawulf openly acknowledging the fact that his wife lets him have a toy? Am I really the only one who noticed that?

[spunkybluegrl]

Did I miss something that Vallawulf said/did? Now I'm curious.

[snotblossom]

Between his two profiles, he changed his relationship status to "in a relationship" with both Barb and Tiffany and his status with Barb from "married" to "it's complicated". He has said things in the past that indicate he is "allowed" to sleep with other women at war and stuff as long as he doesn't bring home anything that requires food and lodging. He got a LOT of crap over it, and while it's not my thing and I think it was kind of silly to advertise it that way, I think it's not as bad as being all sneaky about it and trying to pretend no one knows what's going on.

[reynier]

Oh. /Sigh @ Vallawulf on the one hand, but it is his choice and his consequences to deal with. I just wish a few other people would get hit harder with consequences, but hey, what else are clueless wives for?

[dqbunny]

Just ... o.O

For record, I like you loads, but I also haven't been living in the barony for two and a half years either. Even if I was, I'd still like you better than some girl I've never met. Y'know, surviving the Daily Star together. Bonds of brotherhood and all.

*squish*

[reynier]

Word & thanks! The star's gotten even worse, I've been hearing.

[dverning]

Well, any distance on my part has been due to lack of time, perceptual, or things distinctly between us. Meh.

FWIW, I don't think it's the place.

Hell, at least you're getting something honest.

Any time you want to do coffee, dinner or otherwise, you have my number. Hoping to also see you this weekend.

One of the best pieces of advice I ever received (told to me by a very drunk Zambian on the DC metro)

"No matter how good she looks, somewhere there is a guy who is tired of her shit"

Embrace the second half of that and know you made the right decision for yourself. Eventually others get tired of the shit too.

As Bill said, anytime you want to grab coffee or catch a footie match or something, let me know, I'm still around :)
