"Reading between the lines" (as both Celeste and myself did) is probably why responding opinions are so diverse - everything is subject to individual interpretation.... Another concept foreign to you?
Your more than welcome to make whatever opinions you want. I'm not stopping you. I don't agree with the practice of making extrapolated assumptions that usually go along the lines of the worst case scenario/lowest common denominator. I consider it to be balance, because experience of posting here has shown that 90% of the people who give advice will go that route and I have this annoying need to go left when everyone else goes right by pointing out "Hey...it could be something else..."
Re Forum topics involving relationship difficulties; the problem with your "balance" theory vs "worst case scenario/lowest common denominator" is that those whose relationships are all hunky-dorey generally aren't here asking for advice or input....
And for my own attempt at plucking stats out of thin air, I'd say 90% of those relationship problems are usually sourced at either a passive or abusive dom. Me, I call what I see - and it usually ends with "quack, quack"; agreed.... Turning left on a premise that most turned right may work for you but on that, maybe someone orta be questioning your intelligence and maturity occasionally; esp any sub looking to you to lead...!

Thing is, Celeste is too often the grounded voice of reason and common sense around here and your attack on her seemed born of transparent ego frenzy
What attack was that, Focus? Asking a question regarding a part of her post that referenced things that, from what I saw, not anywhere mentioned? If you can point to me the part I missed where "playing with other people whenever he wanted" was mentioned, I will gladly retract my orginal statement and apologize to your crush.
You "questioned" Celeste in a manner of teacher conducting class. Your real question was of her insight and integrity - that qualifies as an attack.
I can point out where I mentioned a concept of "reading between the lines" - something you still haven't grasped, apparently. I speculated sex and oral myself; the latter since confirmed by the OP and the former certainly implied. But no, I don't think the OP actually mentioned either before I did. Let's just write it off as a lucky(?) guess based on my usual "worst case scenario/lowest common denominator" methodology....

If merely asking questions is enough to stir up a personal insecurity that results in the perception of an "attack" on you or another, then perhaps I should avoid saying "How was your day, Focus? in any future communication between us in order to avoid upsetting your delicate sensibilities.
Yes; yes, you merely asked questions as inquiring minds do - I'm wiv ya.... *yawn*

After baring witness to your posting history of responding to any form of disagreement of opinion with a barrage of personal attacks, I do realize how delicate they are and will do my best not to disturb them.
Back to the case at hand though, when someone begins referencing "facts" about a person that may or may not be true, I tend to kind of see that as attempting to fit someone into a stereotype created in their own mind.
Where the logic and reason in that is, I don't know. I'm sure I will find out in your next post when you inform me by following your usual predictable pattern of insulting my mother, brother, sister, pet dog, self esteem, maturity level, age, intelligence, ego, or tuna sandwich I ate for lunch over the more domly choice of chicken salad.
You'd think I'd at least have the shame to remember insulting someone's mother, brother, sister, pet dog or tuna sandwich, ay? And you say I have a "predictable pattern" of such behaviour? This is all very troubling - you're just messin' with my mind; that's it, isn't it????
As for you MadRabbit, I haven't even called you CM's favourite of "dude".... Don't recall questioning your age or intelligence, either, though I should if you think I'm really so delicate. :-)
Focus.
