Jules..
Thanks so much, but, you won't belive this..(ha ha, laughing at myself)..
I think it's a thing where, as I explained, I don't have a high degree of confidence that you can have an idea of who I really am. I'm not sure that your opinion of me, highly positive and flattering though it may be, is accurate. I don't seek universal approval or for everyone to think I'm a great guy..really I try to not be influenced by popular opinion as to how I'm going to lead my life. The thing that bothers me is the communication. It's the uncertainty that I'm always going to have because I can't get into anyone else's head. It's the fact that I have to be satisfied with merely approaching the 99% mark of confidence that I know what's in someone's head. And this situation is the case even in a face to face interaction!
I was just expressing that anxiety in me...it was not a call for praise.
That being said, I appreciate your kind words and assure you that since the beginning I have had a similar opinion of you since I see so many parallels in our thought process. We seem to be racing to say the exact same thing on posts! It will be interesting to find a point where we disagree. I'm sure we'll have a healthy, civilized argument.
