Maybe you two should have considered separation counseling? It seems j, (may I call you j?) you still have a lot of anger and resentment against Ah. But don't you think you should be happy that you found someone else that you can spend the rest of your life with? Sometimes you just have to let the old hurts go, those missed opportunities, things left undone and move on with your life.

If TERN is one of your "coulda-woulda-shoulda" stocks, it's gone from a high of 142 and change to 53 - not exactly a ten-bagger, although if you'd bought at the bottom and sold at the top, you would have done well. Realistically, how many people buy at the bottom and sell at the top? So that's one flaw in your argument. The other flaw is your assertion that you took Dr. A at face value. How could you? He deliberately contradicts himself. If he says two things which are mutually contradictory, and you believe one and discount the other, on what basis? Actually, there's a third, more fundamental flaw. No one, no matter how intelligent, has a crystal ball. As Dr. A points out, you didn't lost any real money following his advice, you just passed up some opportunities that might have panned out and might not have. Neither you nor he know how they would turn out in advance. You felt cautious, and now you wish you'd been aggressive. But at the time you didn't feel aggressive. Why blame him? His counsel suited your mental state at the time. If he had counseled you to be aggressive, and you'd lost real money, then you'd have a complaint, IMO. Same comment about CREE, 202 to 123. I won't bother looking up the other ones you mentioned, I assume they all went the same way, parabolic up and parabolic down.
