For Isis

Please do not read my posts and reply with cynical comments.

You know, it's really bad form when you tell someone else not to read what you write when it's on a public site. Of course, you're not the first person to think this.

Isis, I do apologize if I have offended you, but I cannot apologize for telling the truth. Do I do it perfectly all the time? No, I don't, I'm sorry to say.

You do not know this man - you do not know the relationship -

Come to think of it, I wonder how well you know him. You said you met him before in the UK a while back---so you KNEW him, past tense, but now you hardly see him at all! Don't expect on-line time to make up for lost dates. It just doesn't work that way!

you do not know Egypt - you do not know Egyptian Muslims- you do not know Egyptian Coptic Christians

I've lived with a Muslim man before, Isis. I've also worked with one and gone to school with several. Can you say the same? I've read your posts. You see your man, what, four times a year? You honestly think that traveling to another country in a resort environment is the same as living abroad there? Do you really think that you're getting the good, bad and ugly experiences of Egypt? Are you even aware that are still active mines in the desert there from WWII?

You're the one who's declared yourself an expert, not me. I refuse to recognize anyone as an expert who is too afraid of critical viewpoints. Refusing to see the other side diminishes your credibility to almost nothing.

So does letting your emotions get in the way, like your feelings for your partner.

and you do not know ME.

Oh, I see. So that means that everything you say on here is correct and your relationship is real? Is that what you're getting at, Isis, or am I wrong?

Isis, I am an experienced blogger, I've seen what you post on here, and it's nothing new. No matter how you try and dress it up, it won't make any difference.

Even though you've never answered a single question I have asked you, I know my guesses aren't too far off the mark. If they were, you'd be countering me left and right. Because it's what you like to do, Isis.
See, whether it's you, Lilly or Kelly, I've seen the just of your points and arguments before. In fact, when I read about relationships on here, I can relate to pretty much any and every non-matrimonial experience.

Your personal attacks on me are becoming foolish and infantile ...

Personal attacks? Isis, I think you are way to sensitive. Having a critical point of view isn't a personal attack. That's a trick used by angry liberals to try and silence people who don't agree with them.

For the record, my comments aren't the ones that get edited on here.

Thanks for reading

Tschau
