Too many words, meaning not clear. Intent on multiple threads *feel* less than helpful. I avoid conflict when I am unarmed with the right words, when I interpret posts as bait for me to respond quickly in confusion and frustration. Posts are not directed at me personally, but I feel teased and taunted by having words, phrases, sentences swirl around me when I read them, like so many throws of a rope, to be tightened by my own ineptness if I attempt to reply. So I stay away, very upset and on the defensive but unable to respond with any effectiveness. I can't say I have ever enjoyed a good debate.
Just what are you trying to say?
Can you not use shorter sentences? Leave talking in circles for our politicians?
Just what are you trying to accomplish by fomenting conflict?
Where is the support?
I am taking myself off-line for a bit.
At least I recognize my limitations and I'm trying to protect myself from becoming more upset.Partlycloudy
