Thank you, ladyJ. Such a small portion, but that some were so intent to really be real pains about. What consumed me was not to do a thing with the ACTUAL RP or events, but all the craptacular drama that was stirred up and returned in and out of game to me and other people involved. I felt that removing myself from the situation was a healthy thing to do. My new character was never meant to be any kind of proliferation because.. if I had wanted anything to have just 'continued on' I would have kept the character that was nearest and dearest in the first place. I won't apologize for being human however, or having feelings.
Dufelt is a kind individual who has been helpful to me in pointing things out in a peaceful, insightful and dignified way, btw. I tend to listen to people who are intending to be positive and helpful. He, like you ladyJ, are aware that people actually have feelings and aren't intent to drag others down. There was nothing I was intentionally trying to do to 'continue' something old, and what's so sad to me is Tyler had no relationships until near her end, when a grave series of misunderstandings led to the first act of quite a farce... which turned though to some twisted bad drama which left very few people laughing.
Anyway - enough over thinking the dead horse.
