The ending was so tragic. But as the theme said, it was a desperate end. Maybe not the best choice, but yes, a desperate one. Completing the title, Gavin was "a friend indeed."

I had a tear in my eyes when I finished this story. It was so beautiful and so romantic. And the fact that it's true makes this story far more special. You two are so lucky. So are we for having the chance to read and witness this. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us.

It's so beautiful. And it's true too. Awesome. Cheers Ieshwar

:Vic2: Happy Birthday, B1ue!! :Vic2: Have fun.

Nah, it was just a joke. I don't want to leave this addiction anyway, not when it involves Aiden... *going for a re-read of TLW*

No, it was useful. Don't worry. You were right. The only way to fix this is to gather all courage one has and to face the problem in question. It's so scary but stalling it isn't going to fix anything. Thanks for the answers. They did help. Cheers Ieshwar

You will also come across the term Domaholics. Like the name suggests, a Domaholic is an individual who has become dependent on DomLuka's stories. Without the regular dose of Dom's stories, withdrawal symptoms such as insanity (for example, "where is Dom?" outbursts ) and hallucinations (spotting Dom's name even when he is not here ) can be felt. Domaholics are of all gender and orientation but they can all be found lurking on Dom's stories page, looking for their daily fix or on his forum/blog, trying to decipher his location. Guys, it's time we found a Domaholic Anonymous.

I still can't believe this is real. It's so cool. It seems to be right from a sci-fi movie. Cheers Ieshwar

Okay, I don't know if it should be in the Depression thread or as a topic by itself. So I'll just leave it here. Having you ever thought of sleeping as a defense mechanism to escape reality? When you just don't want to even wake up and face this ugly reality? You just want to shut off any sign of reality and lose yourself in the dreams and sleep. Have you guys ever been through that? How to overcome it? I tried to look in Google, but didn't find anything worthwhile. Thanks Ieshwar

Ok, I have to admit I read only the first chapters of ITFB. I refuse to acknowledge that Owen and Aiden split up. It's impossible; it can't happen in my La-La land. It's Aiden, for God's sake... By the way, was I not oceans away, I would have done door-to-door and find Dom. And I might have kept all his future stories for myself. Cheers Ieshwar

Another account hacked: Jeep's Twitter account hijacked one day after Burger King's - as hacker is revealed to be a DJ from New England Why would someone hack these accounts is beyond me. What sucks is that you would think that Twitter will take some action about its poor security. But nothing has been said to indicate so. Ieshwar

In another story, Callum would have ran to the HeadMaster's Office and took the caning. But he didn't. And that's why I love this story. It seems so real with authentic characters. Your writing is great too. Cheers Ieshwar

I think they do read it but they don't post anything since it's so quiet in the forums. Dom's stories has brought a lot of readers to GA. I came here following Desert Dropping. But my fav is A Long Way. I read it back then when it was still A Log Way. Cheers Ieshwar

For the society in general, I would say: 1. Google (for the search) 2. Wikipedia (for the information) 3. Yahoo (for the Yahoo!Answers and the mail) 4. YouTube (for the fun) 5. Facebook (for the procrastination. ) Cheers Ieshwar

Welcome to GA, Seb. Feel free to poke around. Lots of amazing stories around here. Cheers Ieshwar

It's an Internet meme, apparently. There are more others, if you look in YouTube. Here is what I found: "The videos last 30-something seconds and feature an excerpt from the song "Harlem Shake" by electronic musician Baauer. Usually, a video begins with one person (often helmeted or masked) dancing to the song alone for 15 seconds, surrounded by other people not paying attention or unaware of the dancing individual. When the bass drops, the video switches to the entire crowd doing a crazy convulsive dance for the next 15 seconds. The dancing style should not be confused with the original Harlem Shake dance.[7][8] Moreover, in the second half of the video, people often wear a minimum of clothes or crazy outfits or costumes while wielding strange props" From Wikipedia. It should have been no clothes, instead of minimum clothes. Cheers Ieshwar

Happy Birthday, Curti! Hope that you are having fun.

MegaLol. Too bad they are covering their face, Cheers Ieshwar

Well, fan seem to be an understatement, considering these reactions. More like sport crazies... Cheers Ieshwar

Is there any legit explanation why they are doing this?

OMG, this was amazing. Like it said, also magical. I hope that I don't sound too crazy but I saw Nature really moving and breathing in this video, as if having a life of Her own. But yeah, it's sad too. Thanks for the share. Cheers Ieshwar

Honestly, there have been moments in the past where I might have said "yes". But now, it's a no. Being Gay is part of me. This part of me has contributed to where I am today and I wouldn't change it for anything. I'm way too proud of myself for overcoming some difficult obstacles in my life. And similarly I won't change my brown skin, black hair or any feature I was born with. This is who I am. Nice question, btw. Cheers Ieshwar

Nice story. You built really great characters. And your style of writing suit them. I like how the main character arranged the double date thinking more for Meghan than for him. This tells a lot about his good nature. So well-done! Cheers Ieshwar

Amazing story. Great characters and I found the chemistry so palpable. I wanted them to just on each other's bones since like chapter 5. Lol. Great work.

I feel so weird after reading all these comments. For me and my boyfriend, Valentine's Day is no big deal. I don't think we will even meet this Thursday (both of us are busy right now). For us, we celebrate our birthdays to show that we are here for each other. A whole day with each other, gifts, going out... Anyway, wish everyone celebrating lots of fun and love. Cheers Ieshwar
