Lol, you quoted my post in your response [i]before[/i] I got around to fixing the typos I made due to speed typing (usually caused by the aforementioned problem of having way too many thoughts for my body to keep up with me).

At any rate... faith in other people can definitely be a problem, and I personally do not trust others very easily either (in fact I don't even trust my family or close associates). I believe I once described my attitude towards humanity itself to someone in the C-box like this; [b][i]"I think the better way to illustrate my philosophical standpoint on humanity is that I believe in what humanity has the potential to be, not what it currently is."[/i][/b], and that really is where my perspective lies. I don't believe in either optimism or pessimism; both are dangerous attitudes that blind people; I'm a realist.

I've mentioned this before, but my greatest role-playing experiences are with my fiancé ([@Ailyn Evensen]) and with a long-standing friend who I listed as a "Special Mention" in my bio due to them not being on this site. These role-plays were primarily done over IM and I consider them to be of better quality and depth than anything I've actually ever written (or seen) on a role-playing forum. These sorts of people do exist, and they're the types who (like myself) will be able to turn aspirations into reality; you simply need to find people like that who share an interest in your particular vision.
