Quoting Acorn:
So, my suggestion is that you try taking your H's advice that you asked for


Acorn -- I'm so glad to see you back!

I like your advice! (especially since it reinforces exactly what h. would appreciate, I'm sure).

I'll take his advice.
I'll be direct.
I wll stop taking everything so freakin' personally!
