Leaving aside the majority of your post which is simply the evasiveness I have come to expect from you: No. THe reason I reminded you that you do not urinate in the grocery store was not because I do. I don't know how my using such an example (or any exampe) to buttress my point implies that I approve of the action. Indeed, I was making it clear that I join with decent people in disapproving of it and THAT was the point of the example for you to take. No. I do not urinate in the grocery store aisle (well...what I mean is...not unless the store washroom was in the aisle like it might be in some states, don't you know)...<g> You seem to be saying that you do nothing to satisfy others: You do not buy them Christmas gifts to satisfy them; you do not make love to them to satify them. You do nothing for them because you wish for them to be be happy and satisfied? I don't think you understand the implications for the kind of person you are describing. I don't think you understand the normal boundaries which exist between people, and the normal method of sharing between boundaries. Has anyone ever given you something which satisfied you and made you happy?? Do you think they really cared about you, and wanted to make you happy? Or were they just pretending to like you??
