Because generally speaking, a 15 yr old kid is in the midst of mental, physical and emotional development and are trying to sort through the chaos of what's expected of them. At 35, again generally speaking, people have figured themselves out somewhat, accepted who they are and position themselves in such a way as to surround themselves with like-minded people. These of course are generalizations and there are always exceptions to the rule. It's a simple enough question though really, to wonder how old this guy is.0 -

jesus christ you people are weirder than he is. life wasnt meant to always be lived in the light.
if he was really like Dexter you'd have to be content with just the kill...cause i'd already have drained him dry amusing myself with him before you could get at him
what are you talkin 'bout? everyone should always be completely light and sunny 24/7....now if you'll excuse me...

and by doing so you(generally speaking) make the assumptions that were all the same in relation to our age. these are socially constructed parameters in which we are all pigeonholed rather than being taken on an individual basis. i can assure you there are times, quite often in fact, when i do not relate to my so called demographic. and again quite often i am thankful for that.hear my name

Are you not making assumptions about me and my intention to know how old this person is? I can assure you also, there are times where I don't relate to my so called demographic either. But in trying to understand a little of where this guy is coming from, it's handy to know a little more about him, including his age. This really isn't as big a deal as you seem to want to make it.0 -

i was just asking. you asked how old he was so i asked why it was a factor. i was trying to determine your intent. youve now told me why and so big deal or not i am satisfied....for now.hear my name

If I were to post a thread and then open another thread to see people were mocking me and making fun of me would probably not be the best feeling.
I mean dude come on I can understand if this was your friend or someone you know and are exchanging insults with but don't you feel any compassion whatsoever as you are typing up insults about him knowing full well he might read them?
I can't really comprehend that.
okay, when im wrong i will say so, and i should not have said that in the other thread.
with that being said, if you really read this whole thread, you would see that i started off just joking, then said i understood the whole dark thing. ask anyone here that really knows me, and they will tell you im a pretty dark person. but i dont go around saying "im so dark, i dont even know myself because im so dark. im not a killer nor could i never be one, but i sometimes think like one, cause im soooooo dark"
a few of us asked serious questions to which we recieved very vague cryptic replies, so to that i say......... we tried to understand and we tried to talk to him. he chose to remain "dark" and vague. so what do you want from us?Peace, Love.

you really want to know?
hmm ill admit i have a dark side. and ill also admit(probably already have somewhere sometime) i sometimes think like a killer. i dont think im so dark because of that. but i do have to wonder why some people think youre a freak when you say you can understand the killer's logic. being able to think like a killer doesnt make you a killer and perhaps not even as dark as popular fiction makes out. we are predators, its that simple. you(generally speaking) choose to ignore what i choose to embrace or at the least acknowledge.hear my name

then care to share what you think he's talking about? because i can honestly say i am totally clueless. how are we supposed to lend a friendly ear or offer support when we don't even understand what he's talking about?
i'm guessing you're suspecting suicidal thoughts or something, but that doesn't fit with what he's said.and like that... he's gone.0 -

i never said he was a freak. and i can understand this. i'd be locked up if someone could have read my thoughts the last few months. but there's a difference between truly feeling that way and accepting it and discussing it or keeping it quiet or whatever... and making cryptic posts like "im soooooo dark you dont even know man!" it sounds kinda... well... poser-ish. like the dude just gets off on trying to pretend he's a scary guy that none of us can understand... like he's clinging to that to feel like he's special.and like that... he's gone.0 -

i can also think like a killer, and even understand a killer's logic. its called creative thinking. thats what we who choose to spend hours a day writing do. but the OP was being vague for the sake of being vague, and thats not "dark" that is attention seeking.Peace, Love.

no im not suspecting suicidal thoughts.
all i can draw on is my own experiences. what Perceptual alludes to is nothing ive not thought of or continue to think. but i agree he is vague enough to be noncommital.
have you ever held a blade in your hand and wondered how it feels to cut someone open? and what it sounds like?
have you ever held a blade to your own skin or someone elses and found out what it is like to cut someone open?
have you ever felt a thrill seeing blood? tasting blood?
have you ever looked at people as you pass them on the street and for the briefest moment thought they could read the thoughts in your head and feel them being repulsed by you?
have you wanted to smother someone to the point of unconsciousness just to see what happens?
have you ever had someone smother you for the same reason?
have you ever wanted someone to help you ascertain exactly how much pain you can stand?hear my name

I don't know the OP said he wanted to connect with people so maybe give him some advice on connecting or something.
But, I am in no place whatsoever to tell you what to do or how to react to somebody, but If I had to answer the last sentence of your post honestly that is my response. At this point I am stirring up my own negativity trying to be positive.
I will admit I just felt bad for the dude when I saw him getting smashed all through pages 1 and 2 then browsed to another thread and saw more bashing. I am sure the OP does not need me fighting his battles for him so rather than do that I will drop it!0 -

all of those and more. except the last one. i prefer avoiding pain. i'd much rather dish it out. but again, the guy said none of this. just "im so dark, i cant even explain it to you." he keeps talking about tracking things and whatnot, i keep asking what he means. we get nowhere. i'm always rather suspicious of someone who can't give a straight answer.and like that... he's gone.0 -

i would be more than happy to give the OP some advice on connecting. hell, in theroy a few of us were trying to "connect" with him. but he just became more vague.
so my advice to the OP is this, when feeling like you are "disconnected" from others and dont want that, when someone tries to "connect" with you, dont go all mystery vague and cryptic on them.Peace, Love.

never said you did.
i must have missed the post where he said "im sooooo dark you dont even know man!" and that does sound a bit poseur. it would have been great had he come out and said what it was he was thinking. we certainly would be guessing thats for sure. but as i said in my first post, i think i know what hes saying and if im correct then i fully understand. but unless he shares exactly what he is thinking guessing is all weve got and with things like this, that aint good. im not gonna jump all over him and alienate him further. i prefer to draw people out but only if i can relate. otherwsie im useless and have nothing to offer.hear my name
