Karen recognized your approach some time ago, and I certainly recognize it. So SOME people recognize it. And of course outside the small group of folks who read this thread, no one else cares about this- so there may be lots of other people who recognize that approach, they just aren't interested in this thread.

"What I object to is being made the sole fall guy for a situation....

How, at what time, and under what circumstances has it ever been suggested that you take responsibility for anyone's behavior but your own?

What nonsense. Expressing regret for wrong done is a sign of growing maturity, and strength of character. To avoid maturity because others could benefit by apologising and showing their humanity, maturity, and character...is simply to confirm the opinion that you have a childish and defensive perspective on everything. Your endless caviling and whining has become rather nauseating. What in the Hell is your emotional hang-up that you can't acknowledge a mixed up period of your life where you indulged in a chronic attempt to be hurtful and mean-spirited?

I have no desire to see your apology. That is between you and Poet. I am sure you could PM her and it would be quite private. Why don't you get on with it? Who do you think you are fooling by pretending that you cannot feel or express regret unless all other people have reached perfection FIRST. Grow up for Christ's sake...
