As Dee already stated, this matter had nothing to do with helping you recover from an affair, which is the purpose of this board. If there is another response, I will report it.

I do sincerely wish you the best of luck.

Bodhi! You're flapping those Tweener Wings!! ahahahaha. love it.

But, if we were turn this thread into something relative, would that be ok? Or perhaps if we started a new thread to discuss some ideas/themes that are EAS-approved? I've actually got one! I wonder if we could benefit by discussing appropriate communication between men and women. Also, techniques to avoid sending or allowing oneself to receive "the wrong message". This applies both in person and business communications, and would be good for us to discuss because we've all (obviously) had boundary violations in the past.

I think we could also talk about self accountability and blame shifting. Not that I'd condone using Ms. Brown's posts as fodder; that would be really inappropriate. Maybe we could all pitch in with examples of our OWN dodging of accountability and/or blame shifting -- and, hopefully, how it was rectified and with what result (self realization).

Shall we start a new thread, Miss Tweener, or just carry on here? Or not at all? ha. I don't want you to report me. ;)

Ha Ha! I know - the "zen" me has gone out the window! :)

I think starting a new thread is a great idea. I've also had issues like this come up - actually during my A. XAP had very strong opinions about male/female communication - one of the "good" things I learned from him, actually!

Bodhi :)

Coming here and writing that you are filing a sexual harrassment suit is much different than coming here for support to end an A. Yes, the ppl on this board are for real. They are women/men who are struggling to do something harder than they probably have ever done before. It's not about fitting into a box, it's about using the board for what it was intended for. I think anyone in an A lies period.
