Yeah every relationship is different. You wont find someone like Joanna ever again. The good news is you can find people with new things thatll youll hopefully grow to love just as much.

Don't expect to, and love my current gf as much, but i'd do another 30 years alone to meet Joanne again. She unlocked my potential which is something not everyone can do given where my mind was at.

Wow, that looks very well managed! Looks like it's still in its shrink wrap haha

Yeah. Wanted to know who the original gifter was, but parents weren't sure...Wonder if it was her BFF.

SHRlKE posted...

Damn son. I never would have guessed anyone could get that sort of experience out of a LDR. Made me completely reevaluate my feelings of them. Do you think youll ever find someone else in the future? You sound like you have a lot of love to give and it would be a shame not to be able to share that love.

Was very hopeful i could give a positive look into it - it gets a bad stigma, and rightfully so, but lots of people get stronger relationships out of it.

Been in a serious relationship with my neighbor for half a year now. I know enough not to compare the two, but she's like Joanne in eerie ways I couldn't just ignore - they were both the same age/born in 83. Like Joanne did...she's saying i'm the best man she's ever had. Never thought i'd be good at this.

Grateful to have the chance to use what Joanne gave me to make someone else smile as she did.

Her memory will live on

Yeah, last night me and the gf watched one of her fav movies - "bedazzled." Been years since I saw that one. brought some of her DVDs in her room in the netherlands home as keepsakes.

At the top says "For Joanne." Must have been a gift for her. Her parents gave me blessing to take it, and other things to remember her by.

My condolences.

I was reading up on it. Didn't seem life threatening. I'm sorry if I Didn't understand.

SMS can cause many complications as a chromosome mutated, but while it may not have been that directly, it did play a role.

vycebrand2 posted...

Might I ask how she passed away.

@vycebrand2

Oops. Missed your message.

Due to the syndrome her health was always in a poor state, and health concerns made visiting me too dangerous for her due to how flying would affect her breathing. Still, she saw a sharp decline in her health, and was hospitalized multiple times for things like pneumonia late 22 going into early 23. Her body just failed on her.

Thank you both so much...if i had to, would do it all over again.

I have young looks, so people still think me in my teens at times. Rather than complain i take in stride if not get an ego boost from it.

Oh yea, Happy Birthday TC

Thank you.

I'll be 37 soon and I got carded for the first time in about a decade, it was awesome. Though I do go to a lot of the same stores.

edit: you should be flattered tc

It strokes the ego, won't lie.

How often do minors get in?

...and I still get carded. >_> some things never change.

Damn man. Sorry to hear that, hope she rests in peace.

Thank you all very much.

God bless you, that was a wild ride of a whole hour.

You really loved her and it shows not just in the acts, but the way you speak of her and your time with her.. through hell or high water, as you say.

I think that phrase will stick with me the rest of my life haha

Just realizing now I didn't say the quote right, but whateves. lol. Due to the diagnosis i've become self aware of my tendency to ramble on, and though there's editing done, i'm so surprised that I captivated so many for that hour. Truly a magnum opus. Thanks for watching it!

In the starting stages of the relationship I was so emotional stunted, my reluctance to say things like "I love you" was compensated for with actions/showing it...Figured any idiot could say it over a webcam, but in LDR showing it means more. As I opened up it got easier to say it. Joanne was very patient/dedicated - the dutch tend to be competent at english, but Joanne damn near mastered it over the course of the relationship.

cjsdowg posted... Thank you for being so open about your life and love.

Thank YOU for watching/reading. :)

Youre a very strong person. Id crumble into madness so fast if anything ever happened to my ol lady :(

I came...pretty damn close. It took me making that video to realize how much i made her final days instead of being bitter i lost my first love like that.

Bass posted...

RIP. I'm glad you were able to be a bright spot in her life.

The honor was all mine, so i'm glad too. No one should ever underestimate the difference you can make in someone's life.

Thanks.

She went through alot, so hope she is at peace.

I replied to your original topic last year and I hope you're doing well! There have been two women in my life who I used to regularly play Animal Crossing with and we always had so much fun. Thanks for bringing awareness!

Thanks for the reply. I've been doing very well, and even talked with her family today - so nice to be recognized as one of their own.

With that, and the support of my current love i feel very blessed. Hope Joanne can see me now.

I spoke of her here as she was long distance, and lived with Smith-Magenis syndrome, so wanted to spread awareness while giving a positive perspective into LDR. I met her in the game animal crossing new horizons during covid, and after her passing i began documenting my grief by telling our 3 year romance story - my final birthday present to the first woman i ever loved.

I'd like to share it again in case anyone missed it on CE. Been told it touched so many as it's the most emotionally open i've ever been in my life.

I finally found the courage to go into her game island again to leave a stone by her home in tribute.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/7173a11a.jpg

It's thanks to Joanne that I am a better man than i was before, and I have even found another love, so continue to spread her message of never giving up hope for romance. It can come from the most unexpected place when you open your mind, and expand your horizons.

Know i can rub people the wrong way, but don't seem to be blocked by anyone. Then again, not posting here much.

Sounds like fun. Good luck everyone.

That was badass! I'm hyped for next season.

Viserys was an incredible character.

He was superb, and like a better Ned.

I mean it's hard to reach that peak, but really eases all the crap that came with season 8 of GoT. It might even contextualize some of it.

Bump

on 8

Not gonna lie...Was humming "uncle fucker." >_> after ep 4.

Seriously though this some good shit. About to start episode 6, so mind what you say please. Really into it.

I spend more time posting here than gaming while working. Although I will idle on Fortnite to get exp.

In hindsight...Would say that too. Specially on the hectic days.

Play Quake Remastered instead.

Not in the mood for FPS - Hell, I played the first level of doom eternal over half a year ago.

I'm no slacker, but in between calls I terraformed my island in Animal Crossing New Horizons during lockdown. Finished my project in like 3 shifts.

Also, was playing Huniepop 2. Doing the match 3 was so chill, and made time fly by.

It's a godsend for games that aren't demanding.

Holy shit...forgot how brutal her deaths are for failing. Just started, and looks like last time i played it was 2020 - It feels new again, and the game looks damn good.

He's like the joker in hindsight.

Seen jokes about it for years. I thought it belonged to drake, but she's a more efficient killer than he is who ended up hunting the people hunting her. At least...I came out of these game thinking she's scarier hunting people and shit.

Fun games.

Yep.

I liked them but they're so utterly devoid of any soul or personality

It's like...a comfort food, you know? Not reinventing the wheel, and more action movie than tomb raider. But it entertains.

It earns every bit of it.

The pull is enough to ignore my steam backlog, and install the 2013 game.

Fuck no.

To those affected, check if you qualify for programs like lifeline? Thought they were together.

Bump. Forgot to post this.

...120 star blindfolded took like 10 hours. That's insane.

Saw a dude beat super mario 64 120 star blindfolded. This is far from impossible, but takes some thinking.

Wish you a safe trip back, and sure you will come back with a gal on your arm someday.

Beautiful

Watched it, and it's watchable IMO comparing to the original. Iroh, Azula, and sokka are standouts, and though it isn't saying much the fighting puts the last airbender movie to shame.

Vyrulisse posted...

Is this updated?
She responded to a video calling her a fraud denying it.
She has done thousands of clears of that monster and she explained how she did it pretty convincingly.

He Covers that i believe, and alludes to it being a rabbit hole explored in a future video on the 29th...another burial is coming.

I sunk an ungodly amount of hours into that game, but know she's better than me at the least. You really don't want this dude making videos on you.
