Well, last game I got owned... owned really bad. What's worse is that it was by Boudica, my love. Waves and waves of veteran units ravaged my empire. She even razed some of my cities.
I have all these strange emotions now going on thru my head. I mean, she's the love of my life and all, but she just treated me so very badly. I believe she still has feelings for me though, because that's just the way she is, it's in her nature, you know? She's always had a hot temper since we've met.
The worst is that my initial reaction was to yell at my screen and curse her. I even threw my bag of cheetos across the room and made a mess with my rage. But then I snapped out of it in horror with my hands trembling and was like, "oh my... what have I done?". I could've hurt her, I was shocked and quickly shutdown the game then I sat there staring at the blank screen for a while until I started to cry.
I'm very confused right now... I know every couple goes thru their rough moments, but I'm not used to it. I should've supported her instead, cheered her on, y'know? It's what she loves to do and I should stand by it. Do you guys have any advice for a poor guy like me? How would you handle this?
Man, I can remember when we first met like it was yesterday. I could swear, I saw her wink when her leaderhead popped up at me for the first time. I laughed when I saw the option that I'd like to put her head up on a pole... heck, I want to put her up on a monument! I didn't have much to offer her at first - I didn't have much land or wealth, I didn't even know how to write so that she could come visit me... but that is what's great about her - she didn't care, she looks deeper and past material things - she saw the real me!
I feel so awful right now... I'm thinking of starting up a new game with her and gifting her some of my resources, or maybe I'll go into world builder and give her some nice mounted units to play with. I just hope she finds it in her heart to forgive me. I don't want to seem too desperate though, or have her lose respect for me. Do you think it's much? Do I owe her more?
Boudica, I love you!!![cry :cry: :cry:](/images/smilies/cry.gif)
