ORIGINAL: Caretakr It's a much more peaceful way to live.[;)] Oh please. Neither your initial rant nor any of your bellicose rejoinders gives the least sign of coming from someone at peace. You didn't post to answer a question nor to ask one, which seems to leave wide open the range types of replies that would be appropriate. Here's mine. You came on here today either simply to piss and moan or to advertise your goods in the hope of attracting a partner. While your mission in starting the thread is ambiguous between these two interpretations, the personal impression you have given is a clear one. The impression I get from your contributions to this thread: You're a very bright person but kind of narrow--and bitter. You are a person who feels that a large class of people with a dynamic and/or kink you don't approve of is worthy of your public derision. Of course you have never even met most of these people and have no idea what this dynamic might mean to them in the contexts of their own lives and experiences. Kind of like the vanilla blowhards who "know all about" kinky people and dimiss them as a group rudely. One wonders whether they do this based on a few unrepresentative personal experience or perhaps based on some of their own repressed fears. But back to my impression of your presentation in this thread. Interestingly you're very pleased to engage in name-calling as part of your diatribe against emotional immaturity. You lack patience, which of course is a variety of self-control. In terms of communication style you seem adversarial, eager to control every inch of territory you can, on the thinnest pretext, and unwilling to pause to consider viewpoints which run opposed or at angles to your own. You've had partners in the past but now you find yourself alone again. Still, you want to be with someone. In reference to your previous relationships you don't have a word to say about what in your behavior or approach contributed to the demise of those relationships. In each case, "they" seem to have been been the problem, your most culpable act having been again and again and again to choose losers or selfish people. You have some significant unresolved issues having to do with relgion. The good news for prospective partners is that you won't consciously ask them to help you deal with them. The bad news is that you lack any intention to deal with these issues yourself but would rather wallow and even glory in them in just the same way that you find unacceptable for others with their own issues. In tone this rant of yours and your follow-ups manage overall to sound self-pitying, arrogant and pissy all at once. If you just came here to piss and moan I hope you've got it out of your system so that we can look forward to some of your more stimulating contributions. If you came here primarily to advertise, well, I suppose there are subs out there who will bite on that kind of bait. There are all kinds. I've read a lot of your other posts, Caretakr. They have to varying degrees given different impressions of you. Overall I have gotten the impression of a fairly substantial person and I'll bet that's an accurate impression. It isn't as though I keep a list but you are one of a couple dozen people here I find consistently worth reading, partly because when you aren't sounding so pre-menstrual/oppressed-by-your-sad-fate you bring worthwhile observations from a point of view different from mine. This tends to be true whether we happen to agree or disagree on a given subject. This thread, though, sounds like it was started by a puffed-up little whiner who needs to get laid. There. Now we have both freely expresed our unsolicited opinions on topics of our own choosing. Isn't this great?
