You pathetic thing.

Three emails from an upset woman ex-friend you'd leveled a lying blast at and then blocked, and you had a frigging freakout and threatened 3D action (ambiguously, we now see, but communicating exactly what you meant to, with your First Notice and Second Notice and all). Because to X the Sensitive, three nothing emails to HER are REAL, while countless, count them, oops no you can't, there are too many, vicious public postings, public ones, slanderous ones, to OTHER WOMEN by a male victimizer are... well, they just aren't REAL, and to try to stop him is... well it's THEIR fault, and their husbands', and their concerned friends', not HIS. Because they ASKED for it. He's not so bad. He's not scary. They just don't understand him. He really had a right to do it, if you think about it. He won't do it again. He's not a bad person. It's not his fault one of them ended up needing medical care.

Etc.

You're an old story, X.

And I meant the first three or four apologies, but this is getting ridiculous. Yes, I admit it, you may have detected a smidgeon of sarcasm in the last couple.

while seeking his Masters degree a young man fell in love and began a courtship with a coed. One night the coed had a bad dream in which her inamorato was flirting with her room mate. When she awoke she had an angry confrontation with her beau, resulting in a permanent break up.

Had the girl picked up on some subtle interest that was just at the edge of the covert? Had her subconscious reared up and brought her to action? Had she snuffed a problem that could have been unbearable if the natural course (marriage) had been allowed to proceed? Or was she foolhearty for mixing the unreal dream existence with 3D reality?

I understand how you parse reality between electronic communication vs a 3D presense. Do you do the same with dreams, telephone, jobs where people are playing a role, (waiter, programmer, boss, employee, everything...)? How about where people are relating in 3D but hiding some aspect of their existence...or just not disclosing all?

What is reality for X?
