I was talking about MY behavior. Not putting restrictions on yours. There is an enormous difference in the two things which I mentioned at the time, and which i think you never understood. Controlling one's own behavior, and attempting to control other people, are two completely different things. Although some posters here do tend to confuse the two.

I don't discount what I said. I think it is the very nub of the matter. And I think you just don't get it.

It occurs to me I should actually put in a few examples: "I do not want to talk to you" and "I'm going to ignore you"" are totally different from "You can't talk to me". Obviously you do not comprehend that yet, but perhaps now, seeing the sentences you will understand. If not, let me know. I'll give you more examples. Lots and lots more.

I agree with the letter "X". It did not tell you not to post, it simply said that it did not wish to talk to you. Two different things, Jewels...

If the letter "X" said "with you" rather than "to you", then it would seem that she was suggesting you not converse with her: ergo--engage her in conversation as in posting to her. Did the letter "X" say "with you" or "to you"??

That would bear on the accuracy of this:

no you lie
I did not tell you not to post to me
you keep lying about that
