Topic: Confessions of a Marine

At the start of the summer i started a Vblog series entitled "Confessions of a Marine", i touched on some points i found rather interesting, and worth while in discussion.

I had planned to expand on this series, and well, with the Loss of my Job, and my new Girlfriend, not to mention my divorce i had some trouble keeping up with it.

I do plan however when things slow down to get back on it

The series covers, (and will) :

Politics
Military
Relationships
Theories
Iraq
(More to be added).

Here they are if your interested in viewing them. (The quality isn't A+ Sorry).

Better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all...

Not trying to be a pain, just thought it might be helpful tongue.

Right, so what are we waiting for?  Can we get this going?  Any other feedback?

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Ouch man. I didn't watch, but eeeks relationships suck. You gotta be distant and treat women as nothing more than semen deposits. If you get attached, they'll outschool you and rape you financially and emotionally. It's much cheaper and can save you a heart ache if you protect yourself by being emotionally distant and keep all the power for yourself.

Last year I was with this woman for a time who lived on campus, and she satisfied and cooked for me. I only took her out to dinner a few times and financially supplemented her education. Sure I spent a total of around $800, but it was cheaper than if I had dated her those months. She wanted to move in with me in to my apartment, and nope I refused to let her! I protected myself. I got what I wanted and with minimal risk. She moved back home (she was out of state) a year ago and I haven't found someone to replace her, but then I haven't bothered to socialize much. I really liked that arrangement though, it was great.

And before it comes up, no I am still getting laid.

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Wow... What a perverted mind JI... No wonder you're single. I treat my sports equipment as objects, but i still respect them and treat them well.. I just find it so boring and meaningless only getting laid and having no emotional strings attached.

If Fridays for funerals, and Saturdays for brides,
I guess I'll take Sunday as mine.
Because on weekends, I perform miracles, turning paycheques into wine,
One working weeks wage at a time.

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Well I find it awesome. Attachment to a person in the case of love only causes you to do something that can be compared to crashing on the road because the bright sunlight was blocking your view of the road ahead of you. You find yourself crashed on the road because love is an emotion that knocks out your rational sight, it makes you blind. Blind, you easily end up in a situation where you are in a costly relationship with a woman, only to realize it when your eyes open up again and that she stole everything from you for her benefit.

What I do allows me to continue making rational choices, and compute predicted returns and investments. I may not have the emotional pleasure to the extent of attaching love with sex, but I still get a good return and for a lot less. Choosing to fall in love and get attached is like making a wild and crazy gamble.

wChoosing to fall in love and get attached is like making a wild and crazy gamble.

You know what that crazy gamble is? Life, as it should be, the excitment, the love. Passion, you will never truly feel it. Because love is beyond what you can phantom. Let me tell you it is worth it. Looking at your love and feeling those endorfins pump through your brain is pure win. Although the breaking up is bad.

Not many people know this, but I own the first radio in Springfield. Not much on the air then, just Edison reciting the alphabet over and over. "A" he'd say; then "B." "C" would usually follow...

Re: Confessions of a Marine

hey imperial. Canadian soldier here. Deployed to Kandahar Afghanistan from February 08 to September 08. Came home to a wife who had cheated on me with a co worker i asked her to stay away from for months. Worst part is buddy knew me, told me he respected me and would help her out if she needed it. I got back i find out he screwed her once when she was piss drunk. He was hitting on her for months. and she finally cracked right before i came home. buddy decided to talk like a big man to other people and tell them how if i want to go after him I can bring it. u know i only have 40lbs on him, but i guess u get a lot of courage when you move to another city 4 hours away... gotta love the 300km of courage. So i feel your pain brother im going through it myself right now

Re: Confessions of a Marine

lol, just watched the first movie. you marry an adult film star and are shocked to find out that she cheated on you! lmao! and not only that, but you put all the blame on her and the military. the problem is not the girl or the millitary, the problem is the guys that are attracted to careers such as being a marine are also dumb shits that can be manipulated by girls.

Again Avo, your failure as an intellectual is never shocking.

She wasn't a porn star smart guy, we got married in 06, she was just a Model then, she didn't start porn till 08, during a Playboy T.V. Casting call he auditioned for a model, they offered her a spot as a porn star, after which one of the Directors, Stage name Cezar Capone, (Real Name Bill Fischer), Offered her an exclusive contract, she didn't turn it down, it's not like your typical Porn contracts, it's about a 200,000USD a year contract, working with someone who is close partners with J.Jamison, and Club Jenna, the purpose of the mention on the video is that THESE TYPE of women prey on the military, we were each other's first love, Christ you assume way too much.

But then again, thats why your a failure.

I hear yeah, i had 6 Marines including my Sargent that wouldn't let me leave my house the day i found out, word was we went to the same Barber, the funny thing is they said he was piss scared, and looking around nervous all the time, they said they didn't know why till, one day he walked in with my Wife - They assumed she thought it was a game, and told him to come that barbershop (Barbershops, Strip Clubs, Bars, and Tattoo Parlors are everywhere in Marine Cities.). Was funny that my barbers knew before i did, i found out before they told me, but still, comical.

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Imperial,

Hey man, just saying that you're vulnerable to a woman tearing you apart if you lose perspective.

Arocalex,

Life is no gamble, it's the choices we make in life that are gambles. Life is a just a sea of options, and gambles are an option we can choose to make. As for love, it's just a flooding of pleasure causing chemicals.

well, whether when you got married she was a porn star or not, does not change the fact that you married someone who is a porn star, you married a porn star. so i wasnt wrong. if she was preying on you, she wasnt really in love was she? and you're probably too young to even know what love is.

btw, do you know any of the names of any of the videos she's in? smile

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Are you two ever going to stop insulting each other?

Re: Confessions of a Marine

avogadro i somehow picture you as one of the guys who sleeps with a women who is married. i could go on this long rant as to why that would make u a worthless piece of shit but its self explanatory.

and you being a solider, makes me picture you as a dumb shit, but i dont need to go on a long rant about why, its self explanatory why you're one.

Re: Confessions of a Marine

I almost slept with a married woman before, and I would have if it wasn't for me missing the signals and thinking "there's no way she's trying to hit on me."

The one part I didn't add is that her marriage was an open marriage, something I learned days later.

well, i have no idea why you would consider me scum. its like i [shared cuddles] with a porno star like Imperial here.

and to the best of my knowledge i've never [snuggled] a married woman either.

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Yeah maintain some level of I don't know what, doggie self respect or something

OK : I don't do that. Here's how I act

Re: Confessions of a Marine

Avo, your logic lacks all sense...

How does me marrying a Girl whose only been with one man at the time (Me), and she is nothing more then a simple Model, (Not even that successful) make her in any way a Porn Star?
As a matter of fact she was so ANTI-Porn, which was a big shock to her marrying a Marine, every Marine has a Playboy handy.. oh the crying fits over porn "If you love me why look at another woman naked", Porn was banned from our house.

She cheated because she thought she wanted Marriage and turned out she wasn't ready, not to mention it was a Military town full of Hungry cock.

She became a Porn star because it's quick fame, and money and thats all she ever wanted was attention - Shes a HUGE attention Whore.
, We married because we were in love as a matter of fact, she told me 2 weeks ago that she still loves me, and now we went our separate ways in Jan. 07 Nearly 2 years, ago i still hold some kinda love for her, i always will.
(This took place after that video naturally)
She recently Apologized for everything she did and was trying to get back with me, naturally i refused because i got a Girl Friend, she didn't come right out and say certain things it was more like "Hey i still have love for you, and miss you allot - Oh yeah i wanted to invite you out to Orlando for a few days for HHNs", Yeah just me and her for 2-3 days in Orlando - What do you think she wanted? I refused it all, I'm not interested in a Porn star regardless if i still love her, and i love my Girlfriend shes amazing.

Your problem is Avo, you have a superiority complex, and your assume WAY too much, which is not only ignorant, but amusing, this is an online forum, why assume? You look so retarded to me, you could in fact be a pretty smart guy and we could in fact have some good conversations, however you need to stop being immature and always looking for a way to Insult me, because you won't and can't this is a forum, you speak out of ignorance, nothing hurtful can come from that.

And [porn ad. There are kids reading this ]
