Sorry Lil:

I was panicking that a comment I made might have been taken out of context... and I wanted to clarify... because I so often write cryptic posts \:\)

The other comment... about accepting bad behavior... was in relation to/direct memory of how your xbf talks to you... and I can't fathom the person you saying you are... to the person who accepts such bad behavior from your xbf. It isn't your responsibility to teach him how to speak to a woman, but that doesn't mean you have to tolerate just because you have a certain fondness for him.

I think about the animal lover you say you are... and out of care for your animals, you would not accept bad behavior from them. So... you tolerating your xbf's verbal crap doesn't sync up for me, of the person you say you are with your animals. Which kind of went along with all the other stuff we were talking about... and I got off on a bit of a mental tangent that I didn't explain very well.

So, that's how I got around to responding to the 'faking' thing... <-- that probably still doesn't make any sense... but hopefully it clears it up some. \:\)
