    Gabe, I think a lot of people here should be ashamed of themselves as they seem to get off on giving you a hard time or having to be right and you be wrong.

    I think it's a fair statement that in the past I've done my best to give you advise when you asked for it with the comics flipping? So I will not tell you things to get a reaction from you or make myself feel better by tearing you down.

    I've had long distance relationships and I can say from experience that people aren't always as they make themselves appear and no matter how much you want to believe it, you have to have realistic expectations. I know that's easier said than done, trust me I know about what you're dealing with and no one could tell me I was wrong about the other person because I felt how I felt.

    I really think you should do the video chat before you meet in person, I wish I had that technology available to me back then as it might have changed a couple situations that didn't turn out great.

    Other than that, meeting in person will really tell you what's what and I can also say from experience that things can be AWESOME over the phone but get really weird in person.

    Listen to guys like Jimmers, they won't steer you wrong and will actually listen to what you're saying and not shoot you down immediately.

    Yes, I've had quite a few long distance relationships and they weren't ever easy. But this is the first girl to ever make me want to change myself so much for the better and even when she likes me as I am I still didn't feel that's ok because I want to be better for her. Yes, she offered quite a few times to video chat me but I always turned her down. Yes, I'm excited to meet Sam and her sister when I get the chance. It's been a long time coming though.

    I just want you to be safe. As your elder (I think, I'm 53) I have a bit more experience and I'm just trying to pass that along. No harm, no foul. I know kids do mess different now but hard work, smart work, whatever you wanna call it wins every time and you do that hard work and all of a sudden girls are all around, like, "Where's all these girls come from." And you can say, "No, don't feel like a date tonight. Saving my money for Miller's Daredevil run #158-191 in 9.4 and above" and the girls get even more crazy:devil:

    Please, please be safe and go over your plans with a trusted someone. Always listen. 

    Being that you're 53 that would make you my elder for sure. But like I've said to the others, I don't have a problem with girls but I have a wife and I am loyal to her. As for staying safe I've said this before as well, I've been telling my close friends about what I plan to do and most of my friends are in the states anyway.

    That rings a bell hm

    With all this personal talk, I haven't seen him mention if he still is actively flipping comics.

    Yes, I was holding his money in my account as part of the idea we worked out. All in all it took a lot of trust especially for the sum of $1800 or $1950 bucks in total but I'm an honest guy and we both ended up happy as he got the book. I had two or three copies of JLA #1

    I'm not agreeing, I'm just saying I'll take your word that you've received some hate from other board members.  And my counterpoint is screw them, you need to look out for you.  Ultimately, the only person any of us can rely on is ourselves.  You're not acting in your own best interest right now, and you need to start immediately.

    Well  at least that's an improvement. I do get hate and jealous reactions from the other boardies.  As for looking out for myself. I've been doing better. I'm own my own now and by the request of my wife eating and drinking more so my health doesn't get worse.

    Gabe Im rooting for you.  I hope it works out and I think you should go meet Sam & sis.  Dude life is scary.  Sometimes you gotta take risks.  Sometimes they don't work out.  And sometimes you get the girl out of your league (and maybe her sister too)

    Thanks. Well seeing them will be a big risk for sure. But at long last I will finally know.

    Analyzing people you've never met or seen, I'm sure that'll be accurate.  You haven't done anything but take someone's word for who they are, which can be incredibly dangerous.

    And no one here wants to see you get hurt, emotionally or physically.  Why do you think folks keep imploring you to collect some actual facts, and verify who you're really talking to via a simple webchat?  

    Stop being afraid that your fantasy world isn't real, because it isn't.  The sooner you get to the bottom of everything and return to reality, the better for you.

    Like I said yesterday, some people here are very two faced, wishing me luck and all the best but as soon as I turn my back they insult everything they previously stood up for. One example is Samantha. I've had many people say they hope it's real yet in pm's tell me I don't deserve an amazing girl like that if it turns out she is real. Why do I get a girl like that even though my life is so terrible. 

     

    You think I enjoy such people? I rather have them come out and say it instead of acting buddy buddy. Not everyone wants me to succeed or wish me the best in life here. Facts.

    Again -- HOW. DO. YOU. KNOW?  Up to this point you've taken "Sam's" and God's word for everything to do with this situation.

    You're being preyed on.  Why doesn't matter at this point in time since you're still in your own home and haven't physically embarked on any journey into the unknown (yet).  Start digging into the actual facts and protect yourself.

    Well believe it or not. I do analyze people. They're not the type to do this. I've been wrong before but too much has happened for me to say otherwise. Besides, why does it matter what happens anyway? From the boardies perspective it would just be one less crazy person in the world which will puff up most of their already dangerously overblown ego's

    When? A date. For example, "I am meeting my online sex-club wife to prove she is not a guy and to met her sister Sam to review their superpowers on Thursday October, 17, 2019.

    Specificity. Without it, you're just talking. A talking ding-dong. 

    I don't know man. I can't see into the future. I'm saying whenever I get my passport and ID updated I'll see them.

    I don’t remember seeing you post that recently.   Where are you staying then?  (Did I miss that too?)

    Also, when have I ever claimed to be smarter than you?  As far as I know, in this and the original “Road to success”, I’ve pointed out some of the  follies of your various endeavors (the consignment venture without insurance, the time you made a deal and then asked for additional money because the book you had went up in value, the credit card repayment when you said you’d pay them back when you felt like it, et al).

    It was actually near the start of this newer journal. It just kinda blew up recently. Yes, those are some of my past mistakes and as for the debt I paid off three of them so far.

    Honestly - if I was Gabe's age again, with no job and nothing really tying me to any particular place - I would 100% go on the adventure of heading to USA to hang with the hot chicks (even if they didn't have superpowers).  Im not sure what the downside is.  How are they working him?  For what he has no $$$? 

    I don't even have anything of value to boot.

    1. You're not sane.
    2. You've provided literally no evidence. Fact requires no belief.

    Facts: I won. My case won base on facts. You've cited literally no evidence. Your appeal has been denied.

    Literally? Yet you're saying my answer of you're wrong is any worse than yours despite answering? You have an ego, friend. I already gave you facts. Are you smart enough to know that or will you keep denying that?
