When you're just to clingy to dreamies you've achieved...

o n o

I've been noticing Sunjewels UFT, UFA even for trade-downs.
They're appearing more often, yet I just feel so.. discouraged...

It's been a personal goal of mine to get a Sunjewel, but for a slightly different reason.

I tracked down my very first Sunjewel back in 2009, which I traded for underpay by mistake-
I recall it was either there wasn't a Rares List yet, or I totally never came to the forums before.
Well.. I'm actually surprised and relieved that they still have it with them, and I hope to get it back.
Either to afford it and trade for it, or to get any other Sunjewel, but just to swap it with the original one I trade them. ^ ^"

However.. now comes quite a big problem.

Anyone had the nagging feeling.. that though you know you might be able to offer enough for one;
but your OCD just screams at you that, you fear you can re-achieve the dreamies you have to give up for a Sunjewel?

Cause that's how I feel, for the past few months.
It's like.. I believe I can offer for one.. but I just.. can't.
Everything valuable or even close enough to valuable are achieved dreams.. I can't let them go.
I worry.. if I really were to give them up for a Sunjewel.. what do I do afterwards? I'll be left with nothing much.
It's not like I can trade down a Sunjewel if I got one.. it'll be another achieved big dream- how will I reachieve the pets I gave up for it?

It might be silly to others, but it's a conflicting problem for me...
Hence, why I've spent the past few months ignoring all dreamies etc. ^ ^"

Ah... I can hope that the Advent Calender will bless me with either a dreamie or good fodder. > <

I have the same problem. I've taken to doing a lot of offsite trading to get either good fodder or achieve dream pets because I just can't trade off the dreams I've already achieved. I just can't bring myself to part with dream pets once I've got them because I know I'm not likely to get another one anytime soon. >.>;

I regret it so much.

Aaaw I know how you feel though D:
I've done very stupid trades when I first started out in CS, and I think I accidentally traded an advent away for massive underpay
Though it's been my dream now to get a Joker for months and I have no luck due to me hanging onto my only 2008s
Which I only have around fourteen and including a Nonjewel which I can trade down for lower pets like the Joker
Problem is a lot of these 2008s were gifts to me, and I actually think all of them were
I am very attached to them and even if I get overpay for one of them, I often end up canceling >.<
It's not that I want to, but I just can't do it D:

I just recently got a trade for my Light Leopard, and they are overpaying, so I can move up the list!
Though I got this pet from someone very special and it was part of a limited time offer only
But I want to get closer to my Joker goal... Gaahhh...

{ I did the same myself. I traded away my Pink Balloon for a bunch of store items I don't even have anymore. -_- I hate scammers. Anyway, it was a big sacrifice giving up my entire dream pet collection { besides my Black Advent } and my store dogs and a whole bunch of favorites, but it was still underpay, and I knew I wouldn't get another chance. Now I just have to see if the sacrifice payed off. XD

I'm already starting off in a bad mood today and then I get a message.

Hi! who did you send your cucumber to? I really need that pet!!!

This was the same user that sent me 6, eye burning, unfair trades back when I had my Cucumber and each message I told them no. If they had sent me another I would have blocked them but they didn't. So this was my response,

e-e Ok you've now just crossed the line.
First you pester me and pester me sending me many trades that I only said No about yet you still sent them, as well as after I told you not to. I'm not going to help you out by letting you go off and pester someone else with unfair trades over and over again until they cave. I'm not the type of person that gets sent tons of unfair trades for something and eventually give in. And you don't need that pet. You want that pet but I can garentee that your not getting it for something extremely unfair such as the things you sent me. I want my last two dream pets so I'm trying to trade up for them. I can know for a fact that a collection of pixels isn't something that you need.

I don't even care if it was rude at this point but it was the honest truth.

Don't think twice about it. Users these days are just plain rude anyways. It's impossible to please them all, and then they make you feel bad. And send bad trades. I honestly would have done the same thing. It's a bunch of pixels. End of story. Agreeing 100%

I think that was completely reasonable... Nobody should ask that anyways! What to they think you're going to do, just sent them off to annoy another user?
