ehhh I don't really know how I feel about people phrasing what they feel is wrong or unsavory as "evil". It just sounds... off.Momiji wrote:

I think hurting other people is evil, nothing else ;w; If they disagree or if they add more to it, it's their own view that they ended up developing over time and that's fine. teaching isn't supposed to be complete and utter indoctrination after all :p Instead of judging, I want to help people directly or indirectly.

Yes it's definitely wrong but also to a limited extent. If you use it for your own benefit for example, you are just being selfish which is quite bad but not to a maximum extent. If you are doing it to achieve something good in other locations, it's bad but with a larger hint of good in it. It's better to not mislead people or be dishonest in the first place, but it does matter what exactly you're doing c:Xuequinox wrote:
Do you think that lying to others without malevolent intent is wrong, because you're still lying?
Huh. From my perspective, I'd say lying to people for your own benefit (for example, saying you finished a task when you hadn't just to receive appraisal or gifts) is a pretty harmful thing to do as it tends to cause you to think that you can be lazy and not affect people around you, meaning you'll being resorting to underhanded actions to make things more convenient. If it's for someone else's benefit, I wouldn't think it's harmful at all, mostly due to something that happened between a friend and I.Momiji wrote:

I would say so too, but I just said it's not maximum because maximum would be if you're only doing it to harm someone, and not even trying to benefit from it yourself lol.Xuequinox wrote:

I remember that, so would you say that your own consideration and whether you are able to come to terms with it or not has an impact as well? Do you think there were any other, better options to help you with that "realization"?Xuequinox wrote:
So a few months back, around New Year's, after I had explained my living circumstances, he decided it'd be best to fake a suicide attempt. This was online, by the way. He stated he'd jump out of his 3-story window or something, and went silent for a good 12 minutes or so. He then came back to say his legs were broken and somehow he didn't fall on his head.
About another 10 minutes later he apologized and told me why he did that, saying that he wanted me to realize my life was shit and that I should stop accepting and tolerating everything as if it was all okay when it really isn't.
Somehow, I forgave him. It helped me quite a lot, so... yeah. I'm pretty glad it wasn't real, too.
I feel heavy and weak and all of that stuff. I'm also tired mentally, my awareness isn't maximal and I feel like my perception is dull. It's like things that I look at don't fully exist, but only PARTIALLY exist. like things aren't really happening, but only kind of happening. it's a weird feeling.I've heard a line of questioning similar to this.Momiji wrote:

Honestly, I think that perfectly reasonable. Not really sure how it's narrow-minded, as it doesnt necessarily reject any other explanation for why people can like videogames or anything. So yeah! I think you should just do you want, especially when you have a boyfriend, since your relationship should be more important.Momiji wrote:
I'm not really interested in/entertained by stuff like playing games, etc. It might sound narrow-minded but I only want to take care of real life stuff and do romantic stuff (uhh) with my boyfriend, nothing else really.
Like has an impact on whether the lie was good or not. You're basically not changing the person's actions, but if you are okay with that happened and forgive them... Then you kind of are, but also not really? That's what I meant - do you see it as having an impact on the person's actions by means of "well i ended up being okay with it so they didn't do anything bad really".Xuequinox wrote:
Anyways, what do you mean by "has an impact"? has an impact with what?
I don't, if I'm eating sweet stuff then it better be sweet all the way. Fruit is for noobs or something... Also the texture of muffins in general isn't appealing to me, they're dry, neutral, and not pleasant to eat (though not unpleasant either)keremal and Reoru wrote:

Ah, okay, that makes sense now. Thanks for the restatement xDMomiji wrote:

Hmm, im not really sure about it anymore. I used to a few years ago, but now I'm actually okay with it.Momiji wrote:
