I love your insight. I was too biased to see it that clearly, but your theory completely makes sense to me- I understand it now. I think I’ll choose to believe that rather than him being just a dick. I think even dicks have motives in their subconscious that even they aren’t aware of. He is clearly a wounded individual in my book... Thank you for that.

You and I share the same philosophy when it comes to deciphering what to post. It can be hard not to be impulsive, but tact will always trump belligerence.

I am definitely not going to let this boot me off of Medium…Perhaps this is what the individual wants. We all need to keep moving forward. I think each day is getting better than the next, in terms of progress, even if we can’t see it. I must have hope, because there are so many supportive people on here, like yourself, that we’d all be missing out on if we gave up completely.

Verbal Judo- yes! I would love to hear more about this some day :)
