Hi
Thanks for the reply. I don't care about the post I gave a link to per se, I was just wondering where the line fell and used it as an example. I didn't know it was okay to be uncivil toward significant others. I was under the impression we had to remain civil at all times, and to all people - otherwise the boundaries become less clear. What if those significant others are posters on this board? I know its an unlikely situation, but it could still happen.
I have to say I'm abit disappointed with this new information. I really was under the impression that we were supposed to be civil to all people (including significant others) at all times. Know wonder people get confused! I'm not saying we're not allowed to express our feelings about them, but to say, for example 'I wish my mother wouldn't intrude into my life' instead of 'eff off'.
I really wish we could change the rules to include civility toward significant others/employers etc. I feel it creates a bad atmosphere on the boards, and also, makes us look rather two-faced.
Kind regards
Meri
