So close I can taste it...

I should have been more clear, my apologies. I was referring to judgmental comments that really don't bring SM anything positive.

Mach - I wasn't referring to your post. I don't ever recall you posting anything mean or condescending to anyone (and you have posted A LOT in the past few years).

I cannot imagine that hearing "I shudder to think what will happen if/when his W wants to end the M" (from Leopoldstich) would bring an open-minded or positive reaction from SM.

In the last thread, there were a few other comments that seemed judgmental to me. Perhaps I am wrong and if I am being judgmental of others, then I have to apologize as well.

I guess it's up to each of us to ponder if our approach to SM has been positive or not and ask ourselves - how has that worked for me (and SM) so far...
