Whatever It Takes
Did you ever do something questionable to get ahead? Who do you know with a lot of power and what makes them tick? Can you be bought?

OMG is a three letter expostulation used in Second Life. It stands for Oh My God and is often used when something surprises, shocks, delights or apalls us.
When I saw this illustration my mouth fell open and nothing would come out of it but OMG. Oh. My. God.
It was me. Me as I have become conditioned and influenced and incorporated into the SL experience of sexuality and seduction. Creating web after web after web, I changed residences so many times when I first got to SL that it was the first question anyone ever asked me, "Have you moved again?"
And they all became increasingly seductive, as did I. I hit the ground running when I found the sex rooms. OMG! Hundreds of possibilities, anonymous encounters with no exchange of bodily fluids! I had never seen a pose ball before! You could pick and choose what and who to do and how - and then just walk away. And if you said "no" to anyone for any reason - they just left you alone! Nobody could hit you - nobody could take you hostage. You never had to see anyone again if you didn't want to. It seemed like paradise to me at the time - or atm (at the moment) I have learned to call it. I was free to explore my dark side with no consequences whatsoever. No one ever had to know.
Then I met someone outside the sex rooms. And brought her there. And became an emotional vampire, hovering over my chat window waiting for her name to pop up whenever she signed in, draining her of time and experience in SL and confusing her about what her RL priorities were. What was happening to me?
She ran away from SL, came in less and less often. I walked around like a zombie feeling empty and alone. Until I met somebody else. Someone who was as hooked on SL as I was. Someone who was as lonely and needy as I was. Someone who liked me. Someone I liked. And we clicked. Like magnets we clicked. And this is the deep emotional bonding that people often talk about in SL. It is an SL phenomenon that is still being studied. It is different than anything ever experienced in RL, and it cannot be explained. The technology facilitates such things, I believe, because it facilitates our choices of where to go, what to do and who to talk to based on what we are looking for which is usually based on our needs. And then all that gets focused on a relationship, and it is powerful, draining and terrifying all at the same time.
And now I sit there, in my lovely abode, day after day, waiting. I wander around. I have friends. I learn things, I go places, I have fun. But always, I am waiting for my next interaction with my...victim? Is this really what I have become? An SL Black Widow?
I know I am not alone. I have another avatar that is male - and when I go out there, because there are so many more women in SL, they hover around me...just waiting...and I know what they have on their minds...
