Tzippy - I've read some of Victoria's posts, and I think she is just very direct and never meant to insult you. She seems to be very aware of the pressure on women where casual sex is concerned - I do believe she would say this to any woman who wondered what she, Victoria, would think about an attitude such as David's - I doubt it was anything personal.

I don't know what that girl was implying...

but I think many of us could use a little work on our confidence and self-esteem.  If you do need work, I'm sure you know in what areas.. you seem really good that way.. at knowing yourself.

I also believe that so many people are dishonest.  I am pretty much an introvert, so I can't ever say that I have been an open book, except with the few men that I have been very close to.

I dislike and don't much trust people in general... not really as individuals, but people as a whole, I feel are very bad.  Maybe it's just my perception? 

Sorry, it's been awhile.  I'll try to be by more often as summer rolls in and when I finally finish up working with the kids, hopefully I will feel more like blogging.

I am sorry that there was a mistake in communication....I have been
guilty of comments that hurt someone over the years .....and one feels real bad....as does the recipient.

I myself used to bare a lot more of the soul on this site.

People can veiw such issues a lot diffently. One might interpret it as a lack of confidence, another might see it as caution and/or  moral qualms.  It depends on your viewpoint.  Asking can yield a lot of different responses.  One who tries from the very  beginning might be a little much even for a more liberal thinker.  Romance issues can be the hardest to figure out.

The written word as well can be so easily misinterpreted.  I tend to be cautious when before hitting the send button on an email.  I read it and re-read it through the other person's eyes wondering how it might possibly be misconstrued.  A little bit of guardedness is good.
