<font color="blue"> Wow 5 pages and half of it is trolling/flaming? Come on, post the rest of the story. It sounds plausible enough, so why do you care that other people don't believe you?</font>

So, regarding the whole "lying" issue, lie or not, has anyone read in to this whole "Waiting for Godot" thing?

Here's what I found: http://samuel-beckett.net/Waiting_for_Godot_Part1.html

And I'm going to finish reading this thread and see if I can find any sort of connection... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Alright, wish I read through the rest of this post before posting this...although, I'm going to read the play now. Heh.

For the record: I'm with Godot here.

I, too, sense that you are a virgin.

For starters I'm guessing that he doesn't sound like he's in his mid thirties because he's not in his mid thirties but in his teens.

Couldn't be more off here. His sentence structures, use and understanding of logic, and vocab all corroborate his stated age and level of education.

I don't know why people insist that anyone who tells their story here is lying. Certainly, some are, but they tend to have an element of playfullness to them. Nothing playful here.

Real or fake, I want to read the rest of this story! I love reading these degenerite stories. I feel like the guy from fight club.

Your posts are EXTREMELY alarming. You sound completely out of control. You remind me of a coke addict in the middle of a major binge. You are not thinking clearly. You definitely are not making sound decisions.

Get out of Vegas. Go home. Give whats left of your money (if there's anything left) to someone you can trust to keep it for you, i.e., your mother. Get to a GA meeting. Call your boss.

I dont think you will take any of the above suggestions. You sound so coked out, so crazy. You sound much younger than mid thirties - no offense. I think that emotional immaturity usually accompanies addictions of all kinds - although it is not the whole story. I dont know what to say to you that would be of any help.

I can imagine a nightmare post from you in 6 weeks saying that you were fired from your job, you are broke, you borrowed all the money you could get your hands on and lost it all, and Allison left when the money did (surprise surprise).


You have major life problems to deal with. I hope you will get to GA and get started before you do irreperable damage to your life and career.


Good Luck to you

Hey Godot, I just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading your post. It truly gave me a lot to think about.

I wish you the best.

Where is the rest of the story? I am tired of waiting for Godot?
