I can't feel comfortable at this time discussing Alex's feelings or intentions without her participation in the thread. I believe, though, that this started out with her frustration at shared accommodation and one by one dismissing our suggestions. (Those noise cancelling headphones really do work.)
And Scott was the person who brought up the issue of my anger. Some posters are more likely to bring that element up in me than others. He also did invite me to leave the community. I don't think I dreamt that, and I definitely took issue with that invitation.
So the story I have been making up about babble is that my suggestions are not welcome, and more so, my presence is not welcome. That would be where my anger rose up, because I felt a threat.
Now I realise that nothing I can say would have any effect, and I dropped these stories. Alex will do whatever she wants. Scott will think whatever he wants. And I will likely stay out of it given how I have reacted in the past. I don't know and can't predict mine or anyone's future response.
And I believe that Alex at this stage prefers to be of as a unique person in a unique situation. Or special. That is what works for her.
