The Shellos people are always here.

Much appreciated! Salute

ha the only enemy you need is a certain flareon who will make sure your fall is decisive

Her nemesis will meet their demise some day...

same with me

Wanna switch?

yeah definitely

Anyone with you..? Try to light a candle or something and also go to the breaker (typically outside or in the garage) to troubleshoot there.

1: My dad and sister (came home to a pitch black house) 2: Dad has already checked the breaker box. It's an area wide 3: everyone has a flashlight

I like when the lights go out. The rest of my family especially my parents don’t lol.

I didn't mind it. Just gave me chills lol

Fair

Is your power back yet?

Yeah! Came back at about 11:20 PM. Thanks for the check in!

I do not recommend candles during an outage due to the risk of setting something on fire. My mom used them all the time but it always made me on edge because of that risk.

Where I live the power goes out all the time! In dry season its at least once every two weeks if not once a week.

Dang. That's wild!

Though less at the boarding school I'm at now…

yes yes lol (series is the correct plural)

insert grammar teacher AHEM. yes series stays the same plural.

Um…
Just going to put in that's just my go-to language in group chats lol. I had a conversation with a guy that I probably couldn't even tell you more than name, appearance, and vague personality consisting of nothing but gifs, half of them sarcastic.

Ah, yes. Gifs are my way of communicating, too. The platform we talk on doesn't permit them though...

sniffles

THIS TOO!!! That's hilarious!

I'm not a huge pride supporter but I still respect people's life decisions. Either way that's kinda funny lol

Omigods lol. That so funny.

That's*

lol that is hilarious why would someone go through all that effort 😆

I wish I knew! And I want to know who! It's such a random thing to do...

I swear it's not me. I had an argument with you about it so just want to clarify so I'm not on the suspect list…

I didn't suspect you. I don't think you're a petty person. We argued and then dropped it. Why would we respark the flames for no reason?

most likely just some rando who was on once and is most likely to never return

That's true, but I want to know lol

why

One thing, I don't know why

what..?

It doesn't even matter how hard you try

huh?

(Oh, it starts with one my bad) Keep that in mind

I am so confused lols.

me too @PokeMom244

I designed this rhyme

I TRIED SO HARD, AND GOT SO FAAARRRR BUT IN THE END, IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTERrER

Yeah, you got it…

ohhhhhhh sorry hades👉👈 it’s good, I just thought you were quoting something or something.

What did you think I was quoting?

I got it too 😉 but barely saw this. I'm singing right now. (RIP) I bought that CD when it first came out.... way back in the days... during college... By the way.... I've put my trust in you, pushed as far as i could go, for all this, there's only one thing you should know...

I didn’t know

We already know… Izzy

Ah, but that's just the nickname I go by! You don't know my real name!

Bum… bum… BUuUuUuUuUuUummmm!!!

I think I accidentally said my real name on here once. Its probably buried under a mountain of posts by now…
YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME, FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLS!!!

Gods I remember you saying it I think... But I could be thinking of Jo so shrug

Meanwhile the all knowing google can easily be accessed by almost anyone lol. @Voltareon2012 I shall find your name just to prove you wrong, and then keep it to myself! MEAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAAH!

yeah.. it feels like this week is just draaaaaaaaaging..

we all go through that sometimes

yes yes all good. I forgiveses 👊

Thank you Deep bow

I had the same reaction to some of the things I said a long time ago somewhere else

I've said a lot somewhere else. That's the main reason I'm getting better. Two very supportive communities. It helps so much and I didn't expect that

We're here for each other, everybody. That's a good community, ideally. That's our forum (for the most part).

Exactly D. Exactly.

Very much so exactly

I get the same reaction when I read through my journal during bad times. Journaling is actually so powerful.

Yes it is very powerful. I do it evryday

Many times, friend, many times. (Especially when things are not ok.)

I get that feeling waaaaaay too many times.

Mhm. I get that feeling lots of times.

Way too common

No, not unexpected at all (no offense)

None taken

Hmmmmmm, I didn't know about the first (clingy), but territorial I knew and possibly possessive.... I consider some of that to be Dragon traits afterall (I'm the same way when it comes to certain things & people). If you are those things, then it's good that you can see it because then you can work to not take it to extreme levels. Acceptance of who you are is not an excuse either.... Don't use it as a crutch but aim for being beyond or rising above once you recognize the behavior patterns that may negatively affect your relationships with others. Hmmmmmm did that make sense? I'm sorry if that sounded rude, I'm just speaking from personal experience.

Oh, no, it's fine! I have pretty good control over it (just don't touch my blanket...). And it doesn't negatively impact my relationships in any way. It's just some traits I have that I just never realized. I don't think there's anything bad about it because I'm not excessive with it.

Ummmmmm.... Did I mention I'm the same way? Last night in my usual Unite time I was a tad late.... i came in to find my usual nighttime battle buddy in a match. Nothing wrong with that, afterall, I was late. So I waited, looking at things chatting with another friend. Finally said person was in-between rounds. I requested to join team ..... waited..... waited.....requested again.... waited waited minutes go by, and they were still in lobby. No response of a decline or via chat. ( I asked to join via chat too.). After 7 min i was about to just start my own match when finally I got an invite. Lobby was not full. Only two people, another chic avatar who I never played with so right away I invited our mutual friend I had been chatting with. I felt my territorial instincts read their head.... Right away I choose my lava spewing Typhlosion yet went through all the rituals ("I got your back!" etc). She took my path! 👿 with the friend I had been waiting for.... In my head I said "Oh yeah, It's ON! BRING IT . Game on!!!". So I went on to show them all what a pumped up Dragonfly/Typhlosion could do 😉. Me and other invited friend TORE IT UP big time. LAVA SPEWING EVERYEHERE!!!! Ha!......... Guess who ended up as MVP? Yup, me. I showed them what's up 😎

Typo! My instincts did not "read" they "reared" their head

I love smug D with an agenda, like let's go!

OH YEEEAAAAH!!! 😎 (I borrowed your sunglasses, hope you don't mind 😉. After all, yours just exude that... ummm.... vibe I needed to portray 😁. Or maybe it's all you ?)

I don't mind at all! Looks good on you! Gives the cool winner vibes!

Definitely Yes yes! (Thanks btw). I guess that was all an example of how I know I get territorial of my good friends. I'm sure the knew person was just fine. But.... I still had to show them what's up. Yes, females do it too, posturing isn't just a guy thing lol. Sooooo dince I knew how I was reacting, in lobby I was polite and nice and well, just me. Still has to remind them all why they want me on their team though through my gameplay....

Typo! New, not knew

Ugh, another typo: since not dince (it's too early lol)

That's the thing, I've never felt a need to assert dominance over people that are with my favorite people. I'm actually pretty chill about it and want you to have fun with everyone. But when the other people are gone I'm making up for all the attention I lost lol. So I guess I'm cool with it because I know I'm not gonna lose you to someone else.

I, at the root, probably have self-confidence issues. And yes, too many times ...... 😔..... yeah .... rejection isn't fun.... doubts about oneself creep in .... so I realize how and why I react, and usually I'll still feel it and yes do what I did vuya gameplay, however I'll still be friendly and nice and not clingy... If I'm not wanted I walk away. If there's more, I fight for it.

Weird typo... Lol .. via not vuya 🤭

That's a good way to think! Vuya... I don't know if that's a word but I'm using it now lol

🤭😁 vuya.... Oopsa! Lol.

It will hurt, maybe a whole lot, but there's one thing for sure— no matter how eternal the pain feels, no matter how tough life gets, it won't be forever. It gets better, even if you're not sure it will. Good luck.

And, someday, you'll forget how bad it hurt in the first place. I can guarantee that. No matter how long it takes.

Thanks UZ. You sound confident so I'll trust ya

I hope things get better and they probably will. Life has its ups and downs but the hole is not that deep and step by step you can climb out of it. I want to say more to hope to say the right things you need yet I fail to know the words to say.

No, that was actually perfect, @clasingla. Thank you. You're seriously very wise

😔 I'm here too. Standing with you, friend. 😔

Thanks D 🙂

I feel you

Journaling is extremely helpful for me. Helps me write down my thoughts and organize myself. You should try it!

I guess that's kinda what my writing is, huh?
