Quote:I did overreact, and more specifically, I read into your message.
I wrote here on the forum yesterday since I stayed home, I was running SE on US, and the emotional honesty factor kicked in. I'd written about male relationships I've had, and I was sore.
I have very, very rarely been confrontational with men, and I've read your replies to men here as you sometimes being annoyed with them (you don't hide it). My interpretation of your reply was an open door for me to speak up and say "I don't want to be treated like that!".
But I was looking to fight. I very rarely feel that so clearly. Clearing on SE has been gradual, and my feelings of my main male relationships (brother and father) have been tucked down for over 2 decades.
You weren't at fault. I wanted to spar with any willing male, and you spoke up. I sought this out.
All good man, it did seem like it might have been something you were working through.
There was no annoyance in my initial reply.. I was just pointing out what you didn't seem to see.
