In the words of someone I hope you recognize, "love and purpose balanced." Sometimes we all have to bite the bullet and do what's expected of us rather than letting our desires get the upper hand. Everyone on the planet feels the urge to do what they want rather than bending to someone else's will every now and then, but in the long run you'll go much farther if you find that fabled balance.
Good luck with life in general, and we all hope to see you around again... though it would probably do you some good even to stay away from the forum and game for a little while after you are free to roam about again. It shows willpower and self-control.
