?

Show me where, in the post she reacted explosively to, I told LFL what to do?
I asked her if the things I mentioned, were how she felt.
And I pointed her to a book, that "might help her, if she chose".
I dont see anything in there that "told her what to do"

Also... i give different people, quite different advice. I actually suggest to some women, that they do things that "I should do" for my wife, rather than trying to get them to "act how I wish my wife would".

Seems like you've seen a somewhat limited view of my posting.
I treat different people, differently. Some people, I think, could benefit from "nudges", so I give them where I think it would be helpful to them.
Others, I dont.

That's certainly true, and something that i definately need improvement on, though

Obviously, piglet's style meshes better with LFL, so i'm mostly trying to stay out of things, except when people address something related to what I wrote here.

I hope she'll write more... rather than a "threadjack", seems like what she just wrote, is very much "on topic" for this thread
