Yea, money rules the world. Sadly. I tried to get my parent’s approval for being in a relationship with someone who had no money. They rejected it.

I’ve made friends online from playing in a virtual world together. They’re from all over the world. They are people. I agree it’s unstable. I find ways to keep in touch. Exchange letters, packages, texts, skype calls, emails, chats, even met some of them in person.

My parents want me to have nothing to do with these people. So I hide them. But they are real. Real friends.

I understand if you dislike me with all that I need to properly appreciate. I understand if you dislike how people say they understand when they don’t. I guess I can’t ever truly understand by your standards. But that doesn’t mean I’m not willing to try.
