“The Silent Treatment”

-Removed-

Not all of us have drawn targets on our own backs.

Perhaps I haven't, and perhaps you're a jackass who can't be happy unless he makes other people miserable. The world is full of possibilities.

Easy, Tiger. Perhaps you are not a jackass, but just misunderstood, and maybe still reacting to some early-life traumas as well as you know how. I'm sure many of us would understand and accept that, perhaps even commiserate with your situation, and allow you some space to work all that out at your own pace. I am not completely against you. Only partially so. 😉

You might have your own answer if you treat your friends like you treat others?

As an almost ex-clanmate I would like to suggest you be very careful of who you make bad internet friends with. It can come back to bite you on the butt. Keep in mind Stees is very well liked by many more people than you or I are.

Not to speak for Dive, but I believe he would agree with that as a general principle, but where is the kindness in the way you wrote that? Seems too scolding.

Sorry, VR, but that just sounds like making threats for the sake of trying to control someone else. As you and I both know, the human tendency to control others can lead to anger, frustration, resentments, and even worse.

However, as you might have observed, I naturally tend to be more inclusive, especially when it comes to apparent outcasts, and you had damn well better try to be more inclusive or there will be consequences! Mark my words, mister!!!

Not that I fully understand what you are referring to, but Stees is a diplomatic type of person, likes to sit on the fence sometimes - that's just how he is, he is still a friend.
