R2C, can you elaborate what you mean when you write "bla, bla, bla ...?" Blu
Hi Blu - nice to meet you!
Hope you and R2C don't mind me chiming in.
I use bla bla too. Sometimes we don't get time to substantiate the actual words, so this is just generic, and nothing to do with gender, in my opinion. I think it may give this impression because in my experience, this forum has far and away more men coming here whose XW's have left.
Plus, R2C's a busy guy. He's on almost everyone's threads helping out and putting out fires. He probably doesn't have time either to type out all the words. There's usually a key word though that he puts in amongst the bla bla's that guides the reader.
Hope that helps :-)

I just got a sms from XW telling me about a pupil free day, plans for xmas, and another sms correcting a spelling mistake with a smile emoji at the end. I'll reply in a few hours. Actually, I wont reply, and will just speak to her briefly when I get my S this arvo. I will send an sms to my SS though checking on his studies as he's with her at home going through exams.
