Re Lil Lou, I think being around BB is making you tread more lightly than you need to Step father for a long time, then I was sort of OK, then BB started working at the hospital and back to treading lightly some times for me.
Sometimes I can just act as If nothing bothers me, Other times ?????,,,, not worth the effort.
You are not an overbearing pushy domineering thug-- at least not on this board. Thank's for the compliment. I found being pushy does not work.
if by some weird chance I got my panties in a twist ...... You! Do that? Hasn't happened so far. I trust history. That is till I posted to you on Fran's thread today.
Just because BB thinks you're a pushy b@stard doesn't mean you are one. More like "Men are controlling."
OTOH I do IRL exactly what you did: I try to couch my comments so that they will not cause bf to have some kind of outburst or bite my head off-- Lil, like they say, I/you know what to do/don't do but we still play it safe. I am not surprised. I think that is the way most reasonable people act.
Do that?
