Amy, we disagree, you and I. I do believe that I've shown respect and thought, then and now. I'm bottom lined, and to the point, direct, and do not skirt about, just to hand hold. I'm not a newbie, I'm not in the throes of emotional rollercoasters, no, I have a pretty decent idea of what I'm talking about, and my style in talking about it, if it rubs you the wrong way, I apologize, and take note, but I won't be brow beaten.
I attempt to be tactful, but what has to be said at times cannot be couched in very tactful terms to one degree or another. And a lot of it has to do with who gets the message, really. I've posted a bit on others' threads today, for example, and they were appreciative, which was nice, glad to help them. But I'm also thinking, "hey.. what I posted is similar to what I posted to Frank, and Frank was loud and disagreeable and put a spin on it calling it an attack. Not these folks." That points to Frank more than it does to me, when you boil it down.
Now, regarding respect, as you say we must show each other... didn't you just admit to calling me a puppet of satan's?
"Brutal" honesty (even when incorrect) can only be given by those closest to a person.
Whose rule is that? That's not true at all. Bluntness and honesty can be delivered by anyone.
Thus, my comment about you playing devil's advocate...which would actually make you not FULLY responsible for your words...
Oh I see. Just for the record, I *am* fully responsible for own words, thank you.
