(Edited: I removed bb1961's username from the subject of this thread because he asked me 2 stop posting 2 him on Plan A/B. I'd still like 2 see him get help, but I don't want him 2 think I'm trying 2 get people 2 gang up against him by listing his name right in the subject line.)

He's going down "the intuitive path" and he will crash, HARD.

I had 2 let go of trying 2 help this poster.

Thanks 2 andrew3, JL, JKT, ILF, Bellevue, and weaver for trying 2 help out.

Maybe after his "plan" fails, he can come back here with a more receptive atti2de.

He can't see the big picture right now, not with that 3 day worm she has dangling in front of his face.

We know that is his leverage that he is giving away, and by refusing the worm he grabs her attention, but he is in a lot of pain and only wants relief at this point.

That seems to be the case with an ever increasing number of newbies that are showing up. Hence, my dramatically decreased posting efforts. Many are looking for that "EASY" button on TV, and not willing to do the work.

Bless those of you with the energy and attitude to keep posting as you do!

Hi weaver and SD!

You're both right. He may figure it out even2ally, what damage he's enabling 2 his own cause. And yes, I feel like there are a lot of newbies with similar resistance 2 the methods.

I'm just tired.

Funny, though. I was much like they are now, and probably for a lot longer than they will be!

So, I applaud those who stuck by me for so long. But at this time, I just can't go through 2 much of that again myself. Maybe someday. Maybe not.

It's never, ever wasted though, what ever time you spend with someone. Your words are like seeds, and they will grow and be harvested all in good time.

Me too.

Apparently a lot of the vets like you and SD are tired as well, and are not around very much anymore. This is probably why the board seems in a state of chaos lately.

Well, this is only the 2nd time I've been asked not 2 post 2 someone about infidelity advice (been asked lots of times not 2 talk about evolution... ...but that's another subject! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />).

First was DLee, but then we "made up" and posted back and forth quite a bit after that. Now bb wants me 2 leave him alone.

So, I guess I will!

I honestly hope someone else gives helping him a try, though.

best,
