My perception has been that you haven't commented at all... unless/until you decide to pounce on something or other in my journal. At which point I see the ascribing of some bad motives to me and/or putting words in my mouth. This has happened IMO several times over, and my unexpressed level of wariness and frustration has been increasing after each incident.
I haven't seen these interactions as you constructively addressing my own goals or needs, only trying to score points and embarrass me online (poking?)... and I find myself repeatedly during/after in a position where I'm angry and confrontational and defensive. Sometimes persisting for a week or two after the dust settles. This is in marked contrast to our in-person interactions, which have been much more pleasant and friendly.
I try to stoically absorb and not respond to some level of button-pushing, in the name of not making a fuss and local harmony, but at some point I hit my own red zones.
While I still wouldn't buy make yourself feel better, (see Les's view, she was on-target), I appreciate the apology, and thanks.
