MrsNop,

If he disagrees with a point, he could give his counterpoint. That would be equivalent, that might be two equals conversing or debating.

I have done just that, don’t you remember. You accused me of chasing Nop around the board, even when it seemed Nop was chasing me.

Instead he is offering dimestore personality assessments, outright calling NOP a hypocrite and hinting that NOP comes across so strangely that his FOO is leaking out for all to see.

I see. And when you do the same it’s simply calling someone out on an inconsistent post. Hmmm…. double standard.

Cobra PREsumes that his assessments are fact, when he could ask if he thinks he sees contradictions.

Now that is a presumption on your part. I don’t presume to know facts. I try to place “IMO” in my posts.

There are perfectly reasonable explanations as to why NOP or I would divorce each other immediately if either of us chose infidelity and it has nothing to do with hypocrisy or dichotomies. But no explanation should be given to someone who is going out of his way to be insulting.

That’s your take. I thought I was just calling Nop out.

I don't have to know what your background is GEL, to respond to you - agree with you or disagree with you. Nor have you felt it necessary to question me about mine. In fact, not another person on this forum has felt the need to know someone's past in order to address what that someone is posting in the now.

True, but I know plenty about GEL and everyone else who is a regular poster here. I know very little about you or Nop. You’ve both stated before that your full history is out there on the board for all to see. Well I’ve read your threads, and there really isn’t all that much out there.

Everyone thinks you have the ideal marriage and recovery. Maybe you do. Maybe you don’t. I can’t find enough information to tell one way or the other. And until I can get a better feel for your dynamics, I take your R advice with a certain grain of salt. There are cracks that I see. You two do a good job of patching each other’s cracks, which is good from an R standpoint, but I am not convinced yours is the model to follow. There are some very good points that can be incorporated, but exactly how and why your marriage works is still a mystery to me.
