    I’ve been around these boards longer than my handle states. We are mirror opposites Jeff, and have gone through three handles over a 7 year period because of your dislike for my personality and how I handled myself when attacked on this board.

    But to get to the point, yes I’m sorry this has happened to you. Your still a young guy and hopefully you will find that partner out there meant for you.

    Now we can go back to being enemies : )

    Not in your industry bro. Remember, you're in a band. There are tons of groupies dying to hang out with you!

    Sorry to hear about this man. I've only met you once, so I only really know you from the BBS, but you seem like a cool cat with a good head on your shoulders. If you ever need to vent, drop me a line.

    Sorry to hear it, Jeff. I'm hoping the best for both of you.

    Since I am already known as being nosy, and no need to answer or go into detail, I am just wondering if a difference in opinion in a wish for having children at some point might have played a role...

    wonder how long before you get this phone call

    Jeff: Hullo, JB residence
    Fade: Is Mrs JB there?
    Jeff: sure, i'll get her, who's calling?
    Fade: umm, just a long distance cheerleading fan
    Jeff: it's you isn't it Fadeaway?

    I was surprised by this as well, as if I actually know what goes on in the life of any of my fellow BBSers. As far as I know, I've never actually met anyone on this board. But it was still surprising.

    Am I the only one who catches himself saying things like, "I know this guy...well, I don't actually know him...he posts on this Rockets BBS I frequent"?

    Yeah I do that, which is usually followed by the weird look.

    No, I do that, too :). It's weird but I kind of feel I know some people here, even though I have never met anyone from the board.

    Haven't really gotten to know you, but from what I can tell you're probably the most reasonable person on this entire BBS. Good luck in the future but given the way you handle yourself, you really won't need any luck.

    Funny that Isabel brought that up. I remember when my parents got divorced and I told people who hadn't seen them in a long time. These were people who knew them pretty well through church or something like that. When I would tell them, they just couldn't believe it.

    But, if you met my parents today, you would wonder how they EVER could have been married. :)

    I think that it is really hard to KNOW someone unless you really are close to them. The board is a terrific place to meet people and hangout, but it is hard to really ever know the people you are talking to.

    Thanks, Isabel, for pointing that out. Probably a good thing for all of us to remember. :)

    Somehow, I doubt it. :)

    Just for the record, no matter how crazy things can get on this board, I never bear anyone any ill will. In fact, I count some of my better friends today among people I've met because of ClutchFans.net.

    Hey Jeff. Best wishes to you. I hope you find the love and relationship that you have always wanted. I've been going through something similar. It's better that you don't have two small children, believe me. If you ever want to get a bite to eat or watch a Rockets game just let me know.

    Sorry to hear that Jeff. Good luck moving forward - it sounds like you have it under control.

    That played no role in this whatsoever. Neither of us wanted children.

    I find myself saying to family and friends far too often "the guys from my rockets message board told me" or "I heard about so and so from that rockets board I go to"...

    Me too, bro.

    I am truly sorry to hear about this. I hope for nothing but the best for you guys.


    On a lighter note, did you find bringing it to the BBS was similar to "breaking it to the children"?
