Hi E
It is with some hesitation that I reply to your post, but since I am one of those who are on X's ignore list and apparently also "LOST IT", I feel I should at least offer some defense. She was, is, the author of her own misfortune as far as I'm concerned. I would be happy to never mention her again, but you have brought the subject up, so I will respond ever so briefly and then let it go.

X can give it out but she does not like the taste of her own medicine. She has at times, been the most acerbic and insulting person I have ever had the misfortune to engage in a conversation. Then, the next moment, she's Betty Rubble, warm and funny and caring. I don't know which is the real her, and I doubt very much you do either. Frankly, at times she makes my blood run cold with the things she says, but I will stop there, before I reopen old wounds.

As I said, X has invited and incited the kind of responses she got and now she has run away to the shelter of a moderated thread. I am glad she has people like you that care for her, in my opinion she is a deeply disturbed and confused individual, and needs all the love she can get. Personally I have compassion for her, but I could never let her crazy, and contradictory philosophy go unchallenged.

Now, I am willing to drop the matter entirely, and not mention her again. I do not have a vendetta against her or anyone else for that matter. I did say some things to her, in the heat of an argument that I later regretted, and I tried to apologize to her. Something which btw she has never reciprocated. anyway it's late. I truly wish you, and her, all the best. Forgive me if I caused you any offence.

Good night.
Greg
