"Never make
permanent decisions on temporary feelings." -Wiz Khalifa
I asked several people
"What advice would you give someone going through a nasty SL
break-up?" and I gathered a bit of what is called 'easier said than done'.
A few said "Grief the idiot until you feel better", but
that is only going to result in you getting in some trouble plus only a
temporary feeling of satisfaction. If you are involved in any kind of
relationship in SL there will eventually be fall outs, some worse than others.
Here are what a few had to say about them.
Cris: What
advice would you give to someone that is going through a nasty SL break-up?
Newt: The best thing is to have a cheap hide out
home and/or get an alt to get away from it all to recollect yourself.
Cris: nods...
So you think it helps to escape a minute?
Newt: Yes.
Cris: Do
you have any advice for people going through nasty SL break-ups?
Natty: Oi! That's a loaded question
it really depends on the situation.... But don't be intimated and stand your
ground would be the basic advice I would give. Easier said than done
though LoL
Cris: Does
it get easier?
Natty: Basically you have to keep in the
back of your mind the reasons you left him or her or he or she left you and
come to terms with it just like a RL relationship. And try to stay away
from them if you can.
Cris: What
advice would you give a person going through a nasty SL break-up?
Dan: The best thing to do is center your
attention on other things cause the pain is dreadful. Spend some time,
maybe try to figure out what you did to make it a bad break up. Don't
talk bad about the person you dissolved with rather his/her fault if it was bad
break. The steam will still be there so leave well enough alone and try
to move on if you really loved that person keep the love deep inside you, hold
them close to your heart.
Cris: Do
you think it is best to give it time or jump right back in the dating game?
Dan: Oh definitely give it time for the
pain to heal.
Cris: What
advice would you give someone going through a nasty SL break-up?
Sins: As in how nasty?
Cris: In
general...
Sins: Well, I must say, it depends on the
depth of nasty happening. Mute and Cut it saves you from the drama.
Most of mine are friends so... But to give the best advice it
depends what is going on.
Cris: Do
you let people wallow or do you push them to get back into the dating game?
Sins: Well... I say let it come to you... not
you go to it... all in time in SL. When one does not look for it, it
tends to find you not you find it. I never did. Every situation is
different but if it can't end nicely... then mute... and move on, there's too
much out there.
Cris: What
advice would you give to someone going through a nasty SL break-up?
Oz: As in coping with it afterwards?
Cris: Pretty
much.
Oz: Hmm.... For one to be able to cope with an
SL break-up, all it really takes is time, depending how close you were to your
partner. Some say that SL is just a game, and it is, but the emotions one
usually shows is often real. The effort that somebody puts into a
relationship is real. Others may find it as a joke, but to those who
truly care about their partner, the pain one feels is usually real. You
may never see their actual face, or hear their actual voice. Here, you're
able to grow an emotional and mental connection that you otherwise would have
never been able to anywhere else. The sad truth about dealing with a
break-up, is that, the closer you were with your ex-partner, the harder it is
to get over it. Hang out with some friends, clear your mind, and just try
to enjoy yourself. You'll find yourself having fun sooner than later.
You'll forget it ever happened or why you were even sad in the first
place.
Cris: What
advice would you give a person going through a nasty SL break-up?
Test Cluny: 1)Strip club 2) Loose shorts 3) Lap dance
chair 4) 3 hours 5) $300.... Will clear the mind and body and only happy
thoughts past and future will flow.
On that note, it really
depends on the situation and the people involved. It's best to try to
keep it friendly, because really if it isn't fun why do it? At some point
you liked, even loved, each other and it will be hard enough without becoming
nasty. Good luck and remember even in SL you're never alone, someone
somewhere is or has gone through something similar.
