HEY HEARTUN~ How do I manage a personal life with a wife, three kids and Second Life? ~ NEED A THIRD LIFE
DEAR NEEDY~ I’m sorry, but there will be no ‘third’ life for you. What’s more, from the sounds of things your first life is about to get a lot less complicated.
My advice to you is to run up your credit cards by upgrading your computer. Even better, have some custom game box builder make you a dream machine with a super-duper processors, loads of RAM, God-mode graphics cards, a huge flat screen or two and all the software you ever wanted. Dont worry about the cost, just slap it on the cards.
You’ll have to declare bankruptcy after your wife takes the kids far away from you and serves you with divorce papers anyway. Thank goodness your friends in Second Life won’t abandon you like that. ~HEARTUN
The simple fact that Needy asked this question demonstrates not only the cognitive dissonance that Second Life sometimes can create in a vulnerable, naive and horn-dog mind but it also indicates, as Heart points out, the lack of loyalty to a RL relationship (whatever the reason). Sorry to be so blunt but get your shit together man and don’t let SL confuse your ass – love the one your with! All those pretty pixels in SL ain’t near the woman that birthed your three children. Yes, I have experienced this myself and yes, I regret my actions of not ending the insanity sooner. Falling for the “Sirens of SL” is a fantasy trip that you will sooner or later regret taking.
