I have never asserted that HD partners have things figured out. I have asserted that as the HD partner I have taken efforts and in some ways extraordinary efforts to sort this out.

I have also asserted, many times, that a primary problem to deal with is taking what is said (and the actions associated with the words) and interpreting in a different way and then acting upon the interpretation, in this case your interpretation, as if it were the TRUTH rather than the words and/or actions themselves.

I was very clear in my suggestion that it came from my perspective/experience and if I am aware of that (and you are not or more conveniently left that out) which of us is dealing with reality?

You claim I am "hurting people" with no evidence to justify your position (which fundamentally incorrect to begin with since you make an asserion about my view of HD people). If your partner is reading what I write and then telling you "see, he get's it and you don't" I can see where what I write could be interpreted as hurting you directly. If that is what is going on, then address that.

If you wish me to just shut up, then be honest and say so and own up to it. Don't dress it up behind some interpretation of your own imagination. That IS behavior I have observed before, regardless of whether someone may be classified as HD or LD, and I have said so.
