Why I'm writing this now, I don't know. I'm beginning to think it would be slightly more productive to write these things on a piece of paper and burn it, for all the impact it's having.

KPax, we have tried to be tactful. We have tried to be your friend. In return you've just sort of ignored us and gone on your merry way in make-believe world. So I'm going to spell this out as plainly as I can in the hopes that you will read it and understand.

The guns are not the issue. The ring is not the issue. YOU are the issue. You are not dealing with anything in a normal way, from what I can see.

I have been on many dates with many girls. Relationships are not new to me. There was one specific girl I fully intended on marrying. We were together for over a year and in all of that time I never once considered buying her a piece of jewelery so extravagant as to cost $3000 or more.

Compare and contrast with your current situation. You're dealing with a girl you barely know and you spend that kind of money on her. Whether or not you gave it to her or even intended to do so is totally irrelevant. The very fact that you would conceive of the idea of buying something like this for a girl who you not only are not dating but have never even talked to, that is the issue and it displays a complete lack of understanding for how the world works. Now you're throwing yourself a pity party because your friends don't want anything to do with you anymore, without even seeming to understand why you're in that situation. Do you comprehend, do you even have an idea as to what it is you've done to alienate these people?

You don't need to "go back to the old life" and you don't need "time to reflect." You need help. You need it sooner rather than later. You have gotten so lost in the land of make-believe that I honestly don't think you'll ever find your way back to the real world without someone to guide you. Therapy. Go. Now. Go today, if possible, but just go.
