I spend plenty of time in SL… Lately I have even been spending time there without doing anything! Just being there, doing nothing or searching for anything… It gets boring real quick when you do that, yet, you don’t log off… You just stay…..
Last night wasn’t so bad. Talked to some friends, danced at sweethearts with some lovely ladies, made a few new acquaintances… And then I started to get bored. Friends were busy, dance partners had to leave due to RL and there I was again facing emptiness in a bustling world of activity.
Luckly another friend of mine come online and managed to salvage me from writing yet another ‘blues’ post in here today.
We talked a lot, one of those conversations that taste like cherries (you just keep on going). Inevitably we ended talking about relationships and SL. I’ve had my share and nearly all my friends (who actually spend time in SL) had their own long and windy tales of love, treason, passion, break ups and so on…
What strikes me the most is that its an almost universal thing in SL, to search or to find love. As my friend said: “We’re emotional creatures, created to feel!”
Eh, can’t disagree with that. The thing is: it’s quite irrational and inefficient for a random accidental World to develop these sentient emotional creatures. I mean… Why? What’s the purpose of feelings when they cloud your judgment, impair logic and… Well, make you feel miserable most of the time?
My point is: there must be a reason and purpose for us to be emotional and so damn needy 
i’ll leave you to drawn your own conclusions…
Other interesting thing that come up in our conversation can be summed up with an old Portuguese saying: “o velho porque não pode e o jovem porque não sabe…” that loosely translates to: “the old man ‘cuz he can’t and the young man ‘cuz he doesn’t know…”. Basically when it comes to love, teenagers apart, the young ones are afraid of taking the risks, wounded by previous relationships and the older ones are eager to feel those rushing feelings again but are held back bye their ties built over years…
Its a funny little world full of complicated little people…
What happen too the time when love was easy?
