I admit, eventually I kinda lost my temper a bit. I'd be far happier with neutrality (not trying to go for sickly). But, you get spat on enough times, your going to get annoyed. I've done a bit of chair kicking myself. But I'm TRYING to put things past us, and encourage elle to shake hands, agree to disagree, we each keep our venom to ourselves, and whilst there has been provocation on both parts, mine in response to more of the same, and then to go and do our thing here.
But theres only so hard I'm willing to try, for so long, in the face of continual aggro my way. I don't think that however is an unusual or excessive thing on my part. Or hers. I know few people to nobody who are going to stand there, take a shitstorm repeatedly and not reply EVENTUALLY with a temper fraying and eventually something snappy being said.
I'm not trying to go out of my way to be cutting and snidey here. I am trying, for once and all, to resolve this. Suggesting I apologise for my part, she apologizes for hers, to whatever measure is duly apportioned us, we shake hands and agree to disagree, without the sniping, hissing and spitting and fur flying. I don't want it, I doubt she wants it. If that is, as I imagine, the case, why should we not do so? It is the logical course of action.
I'm just as willing to defend myself and spit back if spat on, meet fire with fire, but I'd rather not spend my time feuding with elle and I don't see why elle would prefer feuding over peace.
So, that said, from now on, what shall it be, elle? I'm willing if you are. The offer is open, and there is no ulterior motive. The motive is a mutually more pleasant time for BOTH of us. In equal measure. A cessation of hostilities for its own sake. Anyone else see anything hidden and nasty between the lines here? (if its there, then it isn't intended to be)
That is what is on the table. Elle, are you going to take it, as described, with no hidden motive, no hidden implication. Plain and simple. Lets stop sniping, with the aim being a better atmosphere for both of us. Your entitled to your opinions, so am I. But neither of us need to shout them right down the ear of the other. Apology for my part in previous spats proffered, no price tag attached, just request for the same. Lets bring this to the end, both be the better person for it. I'm not asking for your world, just for you not to piss in mine, and in return I treat you, as I am treated.
Treat me well, I treat you well, treat me neutrally I treat you neutrally, treat me like shit, I'll act the same way. Pretty much anybody would do the same thing, so I'm asking for nothing special. But I would prefer one of the two former options, and if we both take one of those options, we will both come out on top. Not on top of each other (in a treading on sense, I don't mean that in an innuendo sense) just sharing the view without the environment being covered in dog muck. Preferable isn't it to having flies everywhere and bags of dog crap being thrown (by anybody)?
I would appreciate at least an answer to my question, however, that much I do ask of you elle. Answer me, and tell me what you are to bring to the table. May we agree to diplomacy in lieu of war?
