Why correct action is good and awesome.

Thorsteinn:
See below edit.

Part #1:
Earlier this week I accidentally fell for a woman whom I was helping out with something that I would love to give detail on but can't just yet.

I was just being me, expressing what I thought of her situation and what I thought of her, being knightly. You know, normal. I started to feel more than friendly towards her. Then I discovered Facebook has a vid call option so I used it. That was a wonderful mistake to make. We talked, she smiled, and I was lost. She has won me. Whats better? She thinks 'she' is out of 'my' league, but believes me when I tell her that's just not true, and was amazed I felt the same way about her.

Part #2:

I went to my friends home where she is a live in caregiver on Sunday to help her out with a minor errand to find her drunk and a bit abusive (she hit me hard in anger). She is a recovering alcoholic and has really fallen off the wagon. She had also promised me to stop drinking and knew my help was conditioned on her sobriety. We had a big fight where I yelled at her for breaking her word and she accused me of trying to starve her Aunt to death. I left after that. Her family contacted me and asked for the story (they have met me before and genuinely like me). We chatted back and forth and the result was that my friend was kicked out of her rent-free home for breaking her word. She tried to apologize to me but I told her to contact me after she has been sober for a few years.

Conclusion:

Within the last week by just being me, by just being Knightly I have:

#1) Lost a friend I didn't need. An abusive, passive-aggressive, advantage taking drunk.

#2) Gained the love and affection of a wonderful woman. A beautiful college grad, RPG-loving, nerdy, strong, intelligent woman.

Therefore acting correct gives you good people in your life and takes out the bad.

Sir Edward:

Huzzah! It sounds like it's been quite an adventurous week for you. I'm glad that acting rightly has worked out properly.

Sir Brian:
Huzzah and congratulations. Sometimes you are only left with the self-satisfaction of having a clear conscious and keeping your honor intact and when you have that and end up with the girl it is the icing on the cake! :)

Thorsteinn:

EDIT: Part 1 & Part 2 are about very different women. They also live in different towns. Totally different leagues too: My former friend is playing tee-ball, while my Girlfriend is pitching for the majors.

Posted above after some confusion on the Armour Archive about whether these stories were about the same woman.

Sir Edward:

Good clarification. I figured that out before I finished reading, but at first thought they were the same.
