Well context is everything as usual. When X addressed me clearly seeking annymous, I reminded her that I did not want her to post such things to me if she was not interested in discussing them. She went ballistic about her right to post when and where she pleases. She embarrassed her self so badly that she hasn't been back to SMBR since. In the few rehashes since, I have made it clear that this was the issue. She is making an out of context issue over my choice of words. To most polite people "I don't want to talk to you" sends the message "don't bother me" or in this case "don't post to me." For the sake of closure, however, I do see the difference in the two phrases and the wide spectrum of potential.
