From the beginning, I had been cautious about possible coincidences. I wasn’t the only one who had questions about Nathy and Sizzy, but I wasn’t willing to make conclusions on limited information. I knew there was a chance that even getting pictures wouldn’t be conclusive, but I had to try whatever I could, to be sure one way or the other. Did he send a watermarked photo on purpose?

Far Beyond One Kingdom. It’s not nearly as much about him as it is about not letting your perceptions be manipulated and controlled – recognizing how your assumptions can be used to shape what you believe, what you trust. Someone with a knowledge of human nature and no conscience can run circles around you. If you can step back and see it at work, you remove your vulnerability. That’s what this is about. That’s really all that’s important here. By the way, I do not feel the same way about the avatars CC ...

One question, one dilemma, nagged at me through every discovery. I couldn’t shake it and it clouded the way I saw everything. As I searched for the answer, I learned something that really opened my eyes.

It does mean that I’m aware of the dangers of making unfounded conclusions, and the human inclination to make them. Let me know if you care. If someone does, I'll keep writing, but tell me who you are in SL. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Learn more about Affection Scams in Second Life. Template images by clintspencer.
