[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 690435, member: 18958"] I agree with Cedar, Nomad. This was one episode and one event and one sentence. Just that. And unfortunately, the wife and husband may be on different tracks, with respect to their style. What follows is about me, and only me: I cannot stand obligation where I have to do something or feel something because of some sort of harness of obligation. I will do something because I want to and if it is consistent with who and what I am and want. Not because of some obligation...especially based upon somebody elses moral code and sense of utility or fairness, or lack of same. And I would respond just exactly as you did. I would have a strange metallic taste in my mouth, and a fishy odor--like a can of sardines. While I picture Cedar's D H as direct, even blunt, I cannot imagine that he would pressure somebody, or gossip. I see him in my mind's eye as a man's man. Somebody who would stay silent, keeping a secret, while watching. And acting alone if it needed to be done, taking full responsibility and never once, permitting that somebody else be compromised by something he saw as his own choice, his responsibility to do or not do. That is the difference. [/QUOTE]
