Tell me your feelings!

StormWarrior

I'm doing a creative writing module at university, and am working on a story for it. However, some of my characters are very emotional, and being a cold unfeeling Capricorn I don't think I have the depth of emotion which some of my characters do. This could make it hard to write about them convincingly. So, I need your help. If you have ever experienced one of the following situations and felt strongly about it, let me know how it felt:

1. You have been in love with someone for ages but they're not interested in you in that way. A new friend joins your gang, and the object of your affection falls for them. This new person also has traits that you don't like. How do you feel about this situation?

2. You began dating the object of your desire, but soon afterwards they dump you. Your attempts to win them back fail, making you angry. Then you discover they have been telling a massive lie to everyone the whole time you have known them, in fact lying about who they are. This gives you an opportunity to wreck their life. How do you feel, and what do you do?

3. You live in a racist country where all of your friends hate people of one particular nationality. Your friends don't realise that you were born in that country, and your mother is of that nationality. You have to keep this secret. How do you feel?

3. You fall in love and start dating someone who is always extremely pleasant towards you. Then you see the horrible way in which they treat other people. How do you feel?

1. You believe in Astrology
2. This is not the place for this type of advice
3. Make it up, thats why it is called 'Creative Writing'
4. It would not be after hours without me saying this

You put in two No. 3 items, which makes me angry and confused.

Confused?

Well I'm sorry but I never learned to count past 3. Sadly we were not all afforded such amazing educational opportunities.

Surely someone could spew forth their vitriolic feelings about at least one of the above situations?

My feelings exactly.

I lost interest when I realised the Capricorn mentioned was the star sign.:rolleyes:

Yes. You!

Magpie!

Ummm, hungry, a bit tired, kinda bored, relieved it's the weekend...


oh wait, you weren't interested in MY feelings?!

Cruel heartless bastard! Now you die.

I would be aroused in each of those situations.

Are we all supposed to respond in a way that goes with our starsigns?

In that case as a positive and cheery Sagittarius (:rolleyes:) I would simply shrug my shoulders and forget about all lifes problems.
Or else I'd just shoot all the protagonists with arrows and trample them with my horse.

Aroused. Always aroused.

As a virgo, I have little experience of any of the above, but know a great trick shot involving jumping the white over a row of seven reds and screwing it back of the upper cushion to nudge the black down the hole.

I suppose it's my own fault. I should have known better than to post this in AH.
