We are only trying to understand you. Do you really think deleting your post will help? Do you think being unfair to Fayte after she has tried to help you, not to mention starting a thread to let her know your disappointment will help us understand you? Do you think that perhaps Mirandee has a reason for saying what she did?

DFD, thank you for explaining some things. I did read those threads you mentioned. I followed them but had nothing to add to what I felt was the comfort and advice that you were getting from more people than just Fayte. I also stated in one of my posts here why I personally am reluctant to offer my advice to people in the situation that you expressed on your threads.

The term "troll" is just an expression that is used here at LL to describe people who take different screen names and whose only purpose seems to be to start trouble on the threads and attack others personally. The term was not begun my me but seems an apt description to those types of people so I picked it up. It is not used here at LL in the dictionary definition of a troll. Except maybe in the childhood story of "Billy Goat Gruff" where the troll lived under the bridge and attacked anyone crossing the bridge. So in that sense it might very well be an apt description as used here at LL.

I have pretty much stated all I have to say here on this thread. Sorry that you have stated that out of all that I have had to say here to you the only thing you will never forget is the troll reference. Selective memory. Also sorry to hear that you are not concerned with what others think of you. I don't really believe that to be true only for the fact that we all want to be in some degree accepted and thought well of by others.

Though do try to remember this along with the troll statement, DFD. I don't define you, DFD. No one defines you no matter what they may think of you at any given time. YOU define you. God defines you. The rest of us only have our opinions and judgments based on your actions and words and those actions and words at any given time are only one small facet of the complexity that makes up DFD as a person. Frozen in time.

Take anything you feel to be good and true from anything anyone says to you, cherish it for it is worth and disregard all the rest. As what we have said here on this thread is only one small facet of what we are as persons too.

I wish you luck and any happiness you can find in this world and I wish you success in your therapy.

D, again, as you can see we are only trying to understand you. I understand that you have problems but everyone else has problems also. It seems to me that you have some growing up to do. It is possible that you come from an abusive family, or maybe your parents told you harsh things to keep you in your place. You are an adult now and you need to realize that it serves you no good to act in this manner which is childish and only shows that you want to gain attention. Again, the reason I write this is because it makes no sense to me for you to act this way. I've read many threads of yours where I find you highly intelligent. Please understand that I am trying to help you. Offending others and pushing people away is not helpful and it certainly does not justify your behavior. I also understand that you are seeking professional help, I think that it's good to take your development into another plane.

Wishing you the best,
Silvertone

Are you asking me a question and if so, what did you want to know exactly?

Its not nice being attacked or having your character "blackened" in a public place and so unnecessary when we have private emails to use..

Wouldnt it seem fairer to address some one by email....and then if they dont respond to that, only then thrash it out on a public forum...

I know how that feels...it has happened to me!

I agree.
I too know how that feels "as you know",
and not just here at LL and on this thread.

But your last quote:

Fayte, we believe in you and know.

I cared for you too. But I can see now how that was also completely meaningless to you.
whatever.

out of here....

I think I need a break from this place.

Guess I should just stay in my personal protective bubble and say nothing, right? As long as it's not me, who cares.
After all, apathy is what makes the world go 'round.

What's going on?? Fayte is simply very direct. I have read the threads and frankly I only see her being helpful. I don't know if maybe you just now simply decided you don't like her approach and maybe you're taking this into another level. It looks clearly to me that you seeked her advice and Fayte was simply being helpful. It looks to me that you are doing this for attention, as mostly everyone here, including Fayte, has explained this to you. EXTREMELY unfair don't you think? Again, I think this will pass and hopefully you will reconsider; I still believe there is goodness in you Don't push people away who care about you, DFORDEFIANT. This is cold, but I know Fayte will understand.

Fayte... We believe in you

Ok, I understand this is an analogy, but how the "hell" is Lia throwing stones when she says, "After all, apathy is what makes the world go 'round." or "Fayte did care about you. Very much.
She expressed concern about you to me several times in private and many more times all over this site! It was genuine humble caring for someone she thought was truly in pain and needed kindness and understanding."

Ummm, your comment does not make any sense

Just because we understand DFORDEFIANT does not mean that we are going to condone her insults on Fayte (even as diplomatically as she puts them)
