Vince,
No-one is playing games here as you suggest!!
Yes Vince, it is the way your reading my posts, if you had read all that i had posted yesterday, to all the various people having a pop at me, you would, i hope better understand what i am saying.
I'll take each point that you made here to me. .... The fools rush in thing was a general reply to all that think it's fine to let a fellow member rush into another relationship without at least trying to get him to step back and take another look. I did however put your name on that posting, ...that was a mistake on my part. It wasn't my intention to aim that posting directly at you.
The ''Says who'' thing, was a direct quote taken from Arnold's own post, and the angry thing was also taken as a quote from the same posting. Now the banter i made with Arnold at the bottom of the page, it was just that, ...''.banter'', Arnold has a dry sense of humour that i like and normally comes back, to back his stand. Where you get the mock and the aggression thing i have no idea Vince. None was intended or given.....
Mocking the forum?? From the postings that were posted about Alex's situation and the gang-up against myself for putting my opinion over ....it certainly seemed that way in this particular instance. Do you actually think that's mocking the forum? Or was it, if read another way asking a question to the forum?
What i wrote to you Vince, were valid observations, i was being ganged up on for giving my opinion, and you were implying, i was going to start some sort of name calling session. Even here, your implying aggression on my part, when the fact is, .....there is , was, and never has been any aggression intended or given. So NO, i was not taking the hands on hip possition you stated....
Your last paragraph is i think the key, Yes we do all have our own personality, and our own way of saying and doing things... I know i can be blunt, and maybe too over forwardly straight talking, than most, but i am NOT an aggressive character, and I'm not looking for any form of fights, but i will always defend myself and my opinions. I am not asking or looking for anyone to change there own minds or there opinions either. Just that, if anything i have said in a posting rings a little warning bell, where they do stand back and think a little more,..... that's more than good enough for me!! But I agree, they will always do, what they want to do.
Vince, ....Both Alex and Arnold seem to be great guys , I'm not and have not tried to rubbish them in any way.... Alex i was trying to help, Arnold i was trying to tell, that encouraging others to fall in love in the fast lane is wrong and can be dangerous. As stated elsewhere, i have a good respect for Arnold and the advice that he has given to others. I only have that one issue with him. Both are grown men in there own right, and both have come back here to say they have no problem with me, ....Or I to them either!! I will be replying to Arnold tonight. I only popped in here to see what else has been written today, and decided to reply to your above posting.
Now i must get back to help my better half to decorate the spare bedroom, before i really get into trouble !! hahaha!!
I hope this short reply to you, has cleared up one or two things. I am not the bad guy, that some seem to think I am, or want me to be!! I'd rather have a good laugh and a joke with folk myself....
David.....
