oh, don't get me wrong. if you wanna argue with her, by all means, go ahead. i am not telling you to stop ranting and raving about her. in fact, i kinda like it.
"Never been interested in a long term relationship? not really the picture we all have, at least not as far as I can recall."
i'm not quite sure if you are talking to me or about pele here. so i will answer for both scenarios.
i am in a long term relationship, and it is also a long distance relationship.
as for pele, i don't mean her words; i mean her actions say she doesn't want a long term relationship. words are deceiving; actions are not. her actions imply a "it's not the case that i want a long term relationship" regardless of her words to you or anyone in private. i don't recall the scenario between you an pele. i remember a thread called "pelecon" that all the sudden disappeared. i never read the thread as i don't care about pele (i have had some good conversations with her, and sometimes she does annoy the hell outta me - but at that point, i was completely uninterested in her). i didn't know you or her then. i do remember you leaving the board for a while, but eventually came back. she stayed.
but don't get my defense of pele as a "defense of Pele". it is more of a defense of this (or these types) of scenarios in which someone is always blamed for hurting people. i have known pele for a few years now. at this point in time, it would be by some act of some god to have me want to date her. i KNOW how she is. i don't need to hear her say anything. her actions have spoke louder than any word she could scream. she could say all the "right" words, and it would mean nothing to me BECAUSE i have heard her actions. too many people are tempted by the siren's song. i've learned to remember to put wax in my ears.
and i'm pretty sure she not "fixed" herself. everyone has their own "brokenness". defective might be a better term. too bad we can't exchange our defective parts for working ones. but i personally prefer the defective parts. we can't be perfect, but we can be perfectly defective. if i were in europe, i'd like to meet pele. in fact, there is not a person from the pool or here or the hole i wouldn't like to meet (all for different reasons - like roger, would be fun to beat him to a bloody pulp - actually, i'm sure there are a few from the pool that i wouldn't care to meet as i don't know them).
but i am not defending pele per say, i am just pointing out that it can't be all her fault. we all do stupid things, and i guess pele is one stupid thing you did (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA now THAT'S FUNNY - there are two ways to read that sentence, and one of them is REAL funny). just kiddin', i don't think pele is stupid. just a joke. she seems pretty cool to me actually. a little "flutterly" sometimes, but hey, even chris cornell wrote a song about "flutter girls" (i personally prefer "flutter girls" - keeps things interesting).
