dude, i know it's a lit to ask, yeah, but could you maybe read the thread you are talking about? perhaps even just the first post? how about the first two sentences?
one of them is only two words long, if that helps.
toksik, yeah, I read about the first half a page… I would go back and re-read it, but that’s gonna be difficult right now. I don’t quite see what point you are making. Are you saying the interview is a self-parody? It didn’t read that way to me, apart the odd comment, but then I am not really in tune with H’s sense of humour. As an aside tho, exactly how many threads has H started about H? perhaps the forum should be renamed haus-elith?
Lamentations of Jeremiah- Considering that DM has already held his hands up to being at least partly on a windup before that happened (and personally I have more respect for you for coming clean rather than less DM) isn't attempting to paint him as some kind of passive victim in this somewhat overstating your point?
My point here was that H was responding to my statement that he was dumping by saying (I paraphrase) ‘the idea about dumping gets trotted out again’. I wanted to make clear that dumping is not an ‘idea’, it is an accepted concept in therapy, it’s in the dictionary etc. I felt that H was being very casually dismissive of what I considered to be an important point; that he sees fit to insult people and not have to apologise. I choose to call that dumping, and I think it is an undignified way to behave.
Incidently, Megatron has apologised. He copped to it. I respect him for that. If H was occasionally able to say ‘look sorry, I was a bit of an arse back there’ (or somesuch) I would probably not feel that I was unable to form a relationship with him. A person who never wants to admit they are wrong, or that they said something stupid back there, or that they are sorry if they inadvertently offended you, well, I just can’t relate to that. I don’t think that H is a troll, but for me he is as 2D as one, because he can’t seem to cop to anything.
Speaking of which-
Anna- Hang on just a jiminy moment? You honestly think that telling a person, who is criticising something that they haven't even read to read
I honestly thought that megatron was commenting on the pasted quote in that thread, not the article. In the light of his apology, it would appear I was totally wrong. *eats humble pie*
And furthermore-
It has been pointed out to me that my ‘ignore’ statement might come across as petulant. Perhaps so. I am genuinely frustrated by my attempts and failure to form a dialogue with H that I find satisfactory or constructive. And I expect some of that frustration leaked out in my post. I have really tried to find a solution that I am happy with. I don’t know if ignoring someone is a good solution, it’s not ideal. I mean, I love H, I just can’t seem to connect with him, y’know? And that to me has been very frustrating. So the only other option seems to be to disconnect. Not sure what else to say. I mean, I’ll sleep on it.
I suppose by stating I would ignore H, I was
a) trying to be clear on what I was doing and why
b) throwing up my hands in a gesture of complete despair at not being able to form a satisfactory dialogue with him.
I have tried to be friends, or at least friendly with H, but I never got the feeling he liked me or wished to be friendly with me.
well, to quote Ian Curtis, “who is right and who can tell, and who gives a damn right now?”
