Gratification

Indeed. You better watch out.

Are you threatening me? 😂

@divegeester said
Crafty little non sequitur you’re trying to pull there.

Why not respond to what I actually wrote?

I did.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
I stand by everything I have written, including that your finger prints were all over it. In no possible content was that a lie.

Of course it was a lie, you just made it up!

That's your God's bag, not mine.

@ghost-of-a-duke said
It was a genuine assumption based upon your weird and enduring symbiotic relationship.

But hang on, let’s refer back to you spurious claims about always choosing to trust people because it makes you a happier person…

You really are full of it, aren’t you.

Most of what you post in these forums are assumptions. Are they all therefore lies?

@ghost-of-a-duke said
I did.

No, here’s what was said.

@divegeester said
I’ve never done anything to you other than argue with you on the internet and call you out.

On the other hand I have seen what you’ve lied privately about me, and I’ve seen the email you sent to the management of that radio show.

You replied
But you lied yourself this very day about not writing 'mad as a box of frogs' alongside paranoid and deluded, didn't you?

We were talking about me having done nothing to you, but you being a malicious, petty, backstabbing liar. Which is what you did in your club. Secretly. Because you’re gutless and unprincipled.

You propagated malicious lies about me behind my back and you should retract it and apologise to me.

Edit; the stuff in your email to the radio show was a pack of lies too.

There is a difference between giving people the benefit of the doubt and losing trust in somebody completely.

I gave the example previously of giving money to a lady who came to my door, saying she was a neighbour and that her car had broken down. (Needed money for a taxi to get to an interview). My wife thought I was daft trusting somebody like that, and the person did indeed fail to repay it. - But then and now, I don't want to be a person who instinctively mistrusts people. - That said, if that lady was ever to reappear at my door she would find my trust in her had gone. - Just as it had gone with you.

When you wrote and propagated those lies about me in your club, creating division and strife, you and I had not exchanged one cross word with each other. NOT ONE! You had no other reason to assume I was involved other than I’m friends with FMF.

As I’ve told you many times, I didn’t even know anything had happened at all, until it was all over. But you chose to not speak to me, you chose to go against your supposed principle of always trusting people first.

Until you acknowledge I was offering an honest opinion/assumption and not a lie we have nothing to talk about.

You continuously make false assumptions about me and my work. Are they to be taken as lies? Or do they only count as lies when you are on the receiving end? Apparently so.

No. The onus is on you to apologise for your deliberate and malicious misrepresentation of me.

Again…

There difference is I make these comments to your face, you have the opportunity to retort, to reply, to disagree, to challenge, to put a different perspective.

What you did was underhand and malicious and I know you know it. You were white-knuckle angry and you lashed out.

If you acknowledge that and if you made a sincere public apology I would accept it and let it go. I’d forgive you ~ seeing as how this is the spirituality forum after all. And I mean that.

I remember you calling me a pr ck upon meeting concluding a chess game for no reason, still waiting for mine😁.
