Fearless - Anyway, it's clear that you have some issues with me and, like you said before, there is something about me that "sort of turns you off," so I am not sure what your point was in your long post to me.
Cobra - Funny, I thought the same thing about you.
Why do you think I think the same of you? You directly wrote this to me:
IMO, you are still espousing a very feminist mantra, one in which you think men need to be in touch with a woman’s emotions, that the men should be focused on the woman’s feelings for in that way conflict can be minimized and both will feel validated, secure and able to stand in a differentiated mode. But you model is not the kind of man I want to be or the kind of man I think anyone should be. I feel that a part of your "message" has a subtle emasculation of men that sort of turns me off the more I think of it. Sorry, that’s just how I feel. I'm also beginning to develop suspicions why your H left you.
This seemed like a pretty clear personal attack on me and my opinions. I didn't have to read between any lines to see that you don't understand me (because I don't fit the above description) and that you are sort of turned off by me.
So again my point was: I am trying to understand why you want me to answer all sorts of questions about myself given that I am not some one you "like" interacting with...
