I believe you are mistaken. Perhaps you misheard some conversation somewhere.
Unfortunately, you are the only person being rude, so please try to be more considerate if you are going to reply again.

So when you're introduced to your friend's new girlfriend, the first thing you say to her is, "Jeeze, he's dating you? Weird, I thought he was going to marry his last girlfriend. She's nice."
O.o
That isn't rude? At all?
wat?

It's not a bad thing, I was just honestly surprised they really liked each other last I saw which was months ago, I just wanted to know what happened. Nothing wrong with you dating him. Serif is a great guy. I'm not attacking you at all.
edit: Shauni lol sup man. =p

He wasn't, though. I can assure you, there was 100% no marriage plans. None. Absolutely zero. He's very open with me and I know him very well.
:/
Regardless, even if that wasn't the case, it's still rude to bring up right off of the bat.

It's really not that rude, no need to over-react. The last thing Brent would do is be rude/mean to someone, he's the nicest guy ever. He just asked a simple question that could have easily been answered by "nope, they broke up a few months ago" or something... no need to attack him and call him rude.

Uh no it really isn't rude.
It's in inquiry and nothing more. You're sensitive with the subject because it pertains directly to your relationship...I guess...but it isn't a rude question in and of itself.

I'm sorry for asking a question. That's just the impression I was under the last time I saw them.

It's rude if it is said in that manner and tone, but it wasn't. You can make absolutely everything sound rude if you change the tone and manner...
The bottom line was he wasn't trying to be rude or offend anyone.

I think the inquisition into a lovers past relationship via the comment field on a highly visible blog may scratch the rude category at least a small bit. The initial statement was harmless, but the "No really, wtf happened to Midi?" sort of demands a response, and I don't know about you, but discussing the marital potential of someone I am seeing to someone other than myself is not something I would be excited to share with anyone, much less a large audience - if for no other reason than I can likely never know the reason for sure. Since we're here though...
It should be somewhat important to note that "Last I heard, they were going to get married" can admittedly be an overstatement Brent, as I made absolutely certain that we did not have a relationship when we were at work. We knew we were not compatible long term after about a month in, and despite that knowledge never really tainting what we had at the time, it also never created an atmosphere where it would escalate to the premise of anything else, if for no other reason(though there were several) than my perception of marriage has throughout my life been an extremely convoluted concept that I will play no part in as it is. I'm only recently coming to terms with the idea that it will ever be in my future in any facet because as an idealist and someone who prioritizes the combination of intellectual, emotional, and physical connections in conjunction with mutuality and mutual interests together, I will never be happy with anything short of near perfect compatibility, and consequently by the time you are certain of that, marriage isn't important (not to mention the probability of me ever finding anyone that meets my standards in a companion is exceptionally rare). Fortunately, I think my idealism has payed off. <3
Figured the horses mouth was the easiest way to resolve this tangle of third party commentary, not to mention a good excuse to stop lurking and participate as I have been lurking off and on since winter when Brent introduced me to Teamliquid, though more frequently recently .
Good to see you Brent! How are you doing? Where are you living now? Hit me up. If you are in the area, we'll have to grab a drink. David, Chris, and I are all living together in Santa Monica now, half a block from the new office. Also, stop being a troll. <3

Nice to see you FINALLY post Serif. You should have started ages ago. TL is the best community ever, especially in LoL terms. You can read decent strats and get some pretty helpful advice here. Tell more Rioters to pay attention here. =)
Thanks for clearing that up and I apologize.

There is a PM function, you could have easily used that Psy if you wanted to ask an honest question discreetly.

<3 Serif <3
See? I really did find the right one.

Yea Brent posting on the blog so that everyone sees isn't the way to talk about that although it is a good way to start drama and drama entertains me.
Also when are you going to log into LoL?
|
I post on TL nearly exclusively to talk about myself.

I've been playing LoL. Justin Bisu is the name
