I need to reword that.
Not to be more civil, just because it didn't come across the way I'd intended it too.
Fondly, doesn't affect me one way or the other.
What I was trying to say was, if one kind word bugs someone that's *their* problem.Trust me, I know because I have word hostility issues : ) No associations, I just hate certain words.. that's it. And I know it's my problem, otherwise I'd have to invent a pseudo-moral reason why people shouldn't use the word creamy.. or slacks.. or...slab oh I have so many.
You're sweet Phillipa, don't change.

Perhaps someone's grandmother used to pat them on the head as a child and say "I'm so fond of you". Maybe it brings up memories of being a child, and they interpret the word "fondly" in that way. Does that mean you should change? heck no.
If you ever want to change, because YOU want to, then go ahead. Until then, I'll be happy to see that someone is fond of us.

What??!! Your posts are not in the least bit condescending. I think "fondly" is a lovely way to sign off on either a post or a letter.
Please don't let this bother you. You are such a kind, thoughtful person.

After you tell him to go &^%%$ himself in a very civil way... ;~}
Actually, doesn't telling someone she was condescending for using the word fondly make this person extremely consescending AND completely asinine?

do...what? someone said not to use fondly? that is just crazytalk!!;) how could you possibly interpret 'fondly' negatively?
the only way i can possibly think of is if they think you're being sarcastic. well, dude or dudette, i am 100% positive that she is not being sarcastic! i promise!!!!!:-) phillipa ain't like that man.
btw, hi phillipa.:-) and if you don't use it i'm going to. i like fondly. hope you are doing well p.

do not twist "my " words..i did not "suggest", you were condesending..i was "suggesting" to you personal concerns between 2 friends..i am sad you did this..
it makes me ill..to think my attentions were displayed as hurtful and.....i am a good moral person..
why would you let others believe i was otherwise?

hi james..
"that someone thought this needed to be dealt with seems strange"..phillipa expressed her concerns about "this" matters..on "board"
does that mean both she is ************ as well?..but on a larger scale?please rephrase..

Sorry I hurt your feelings. I didn't intend to do this. Was just looking for some feedback from others as I had wondered the same thing. Friendship has nothing to do with this. As far as I'm concerned you are a great friend to bring this to my attention. Glad to see you posting again. Everyone including me has missed your witty humor you use at times . Love Jan

---Here is my rephrase. Many people have been tearing each other down on this board in the past week. I have never seen or known fondly, to hurt or bother anyone around here, especially me. I do not see why this was a pressing issue to be dealt with, but phillapa did, so I expressed my opinion.I feel accused. You may or may not have accused someone off of this board, but I feel accused on this board. So whoevere you are and whatever your name used to be, leave me alone.
thank you for your attention to this matter,
James Russell Kramer II
