I guess this is why I don't post over here much. But who do you think you are to interpret MY motives or make such statements that insinuate lots of negatives about MY life? I realize it was directed to Dr. Bob but it was even more insulting to be sort of an aside in your criticism.
It actually takes courage to meet people IRL, no matter what the circumstances.
I've worded this 10 difference ways so I'll stop. What I really wanted to say isn't lady-like. I will ask this: Do you enjoy being a kill-joy?
*sigh*

> Do you enjoy being a kill-joy?
I understand that you are upset and feel hurt, but please be sensitive to other posters' feelings even if yours are hurt, and please don't post anything that could lead others to feel accused or put down.
If you or others have questions about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
Follow-ups regarding these issues, as well as replies to the above posts, should of course themselves be civil.
Dinah, acting as deputy for Dr. Bob

Hope my post didn't offend anyone. It was meant as a harmless observation of recent messages/threads.

This might be my first one, sorry it had to come from you.
I'm heading back to safer waters. Didn't mean to add to the ruckus. I know better.

Your post didn't offend me, and my post had absolutely nothing to do with your post on this thread.
No worries :-)

> Don't you have friends in real life, Dr Bob? Don't people find it strange that he wants to hang out with a bunch of women in the grip of transference? Don't people find that just a little disconcerting?
It's taken me a bit of time to respond to this, giving myself time to settle my jets before I got myself in trouble. I think I'm cooler now.
When I first read this, it felt like a slap in the face. I won't address the question of whether or not I feel transference in any situation, because I do't feel qualified to do so. I will say that I resent someone who knows my situation so much less than I do stating that I am "in the grip of transference."
I also feel as though I'm collateral damage in a situation that has nothing to do with me, and that feels bad, too.
So, the bottom line is that I feel bad after reading something someone else wrote. Someone who, so far as I know, doesn't even know me to make judgements about me. I hope someone came out of this situation feeling good. Otherwise it just seems like we've all lost.

It was very civil
I thought the post was unusual because the general complaint I hear about Dr. Bob is that he doesn't see us as individuals, we are a group experiment.
And yet, when he does something like invite people out for drinks, which I thought was a nice gesture.
Suddenly.. according to the poster the attendees would be " a group of women in the grip of transference"
I certainly felt de-personalized by that comment, though I'm not attending, nor have I experienced transference that I know of anyway.It also seems that well, as dr. Bob has likely clued into by now. : )
He can't win.

So people might feel accused or put down if you say they are having a transference response?
I didn't know at was an accusatory / putting down thing to say...
I'm sorry for the hurt feelings. I didn't intend to hurt anybody.
For those who attended...
Would you meet other men in person who you had only talked to off the internet?
Why does it feel safer to meet with Dr Bob?
Especially given that... He doesn't even talk in proper sentances ;-)
