There comes a time when even calm, humorous remarks, or at worst, remarks such as "oversensitive" and and "irritable" are met with "shockingly childish" and comments indicating I have "personal problems" (now edited I see).  Thus far I feel I've been rather polite, CP3S, and I feel you have misunderstood every reply as if I'm somehow flipping out.  The worst I've been is irritated, but never anywhere close to what you seem to perceive.  Meanwhile, your responses seemingly contain harsher language than what you seem to perceive from me.

As to your altered reply, I'm glad you read the material, and I wasn't saying you hadn't per se, but considering every reply was a response to some minor comment I made (starting with a little sarcasm intended to be fun) rather than addressing the points I'd already made (making it seem like you disregarded the substance of the posts).

What I meant about thoughtless comments was how easy it was to postulate something about which you knew little about.  I remember you said you once made out with a girl who had a gun in her jeans.  I could make some "plausible" explanations about why that relationship didn't go further, but the truth is that I know little of the situation.  If you provided a little sarcastic reply followed by a sincere reply and several links explaining the situation, I wouldn't take that as an immature defense; I'd assume you didn't want to take the time to explain every little detail of the situation to me.  To truly thoroughly explain the character of 11 men throughout their lives takes a great deal more time than it does to generate three or four quick questions based on little information.

I respect your opinion, and the funny thing is we agree on quite a bit.  I can't help but worry that somehow what I feel was a very sensible post will still somehow be misinterpreted and you will not even address the bulk of the post due to some phrase you find "childish" or inaccurate.  I suggest one of three outcomes at this point: I will start a new thread where we can argue until our fingers are stiff with arthritis; I put you on ignore and do not respond to your posts, even though I usually find most of them enlightening; we drop this silly argument that has been largely based on misunderstanding intentions.  I have a feeling you say something along the lines of, "I don't care how you want to deal with me," but I'll let your next post decide.

Hoping we can remain discussion/debate buddies...
