If you honestly don't recall ever accusing me of anything, then I literally fear for you. I prayed to God about you once, and I won't even tell you what he said, but it was not good. Not in an overall sense (I am sure that there are good things about you), but in a specific sense related to our previous interactions. Basically, that you were guilty of everything that you were accusing me of.
Other than telling you that I wasn't comfortable continuing the private conversation you started, I don't recall any accusations on my part 🤔.

But yes, I certainly believe that there are things about me that are not good. I think that's true for all of us. Part of our growth in Christ includes recognizing and working on those things so we can become more like He wants us to be. In fact, most of the threads I have started here are inspired by issues I have that I think God is telling me to work on. I've found the input and constructive criticism I've received through those threads to be incredibly helpful for my personal growth.

Anyways, I don't hold contempt for you, only caution. I honestly think you're a decent guy who generally means well 😎. I also think you've been hurt repeatedly throughout your past and that pain comes out in you interactions WAY more than you realize. It's not normal for a person to be as hyper-sensitive to even the slightest whiff of perceived criticism, it throws you into and extreme fight-mode that leaves the other person a bit shocked and confused. I truly, genuinely, DESPERATELY hope that you will at least poke into what might cause such a desperate reaction in you, because it will affect every close relationship you ever have.

Perhaps it was a critical or overbearing parent. Or maybe there was legit abuse in your past.....nobody fought for you, so you had to learn to fight for yourself. Maybe it was a coping mechanism that helped you survive. I do not know. But whatever caused it, it's time to work on healing it. I truly wish you the best in that endeavor, it will be hard but it will be worth it. 🙏

Best-
-Nichole

P.S. Please try to calm down and read this in the intent I am writing it, ya crackhead! 😜😉

Wow. Way to spin the truth to leave the reader believing something other than what truly transpired. Sure, I started the conversation, and we both know why that was.

I could easily run off a list of false accusations you made about me, but I would have to reveal what we said in our private exchanges to do so. And to what end? I have no animosity towards you whatsoever. As I have recently stated, generally speaking, I think that you are a great person with many fine qualities. Sincerely. At the same time, however, that is not what I encountered several times in our own private discussions. Anyhow, now, as I have one foot out the door, is not the time for this discussion, nor will there ever be another time for it in the future.

As far as your other comments about me are concerned, whatever. It is nothing you have not said to me before. You were totally off-base then, and you are totally off-base now.

I wish you the best, Nichole. We could have been online friends...if you had been honest. Not only with me, but also with yourself.

Btw, I have been totally calm throughout this conversation. So calm that if you took my blood pressure, then I might appear to be dead...lol. Seriously, this is what I meant about people misreading tone and the like into people's responses.

That said, I appreciate the inside "crackhead" joke. Perhaps you are human after all. I said "perhaps," so don't get too excited. :p

Dangit Thomas, QUIT MAKING ME LAUGH THAT IS NOT ALLOWED WHEN I'M ANNOYED WITH YOU UGGGGHHH!!! 😂

And for the record, @StillLiving4Him / Keepingthingsreal never said anything lewd or off-color in private conversation. The reasons I didn't want to talk privately had nothing whatsoever to do with that realm.

All the best to you SL4H, and I really do mean that. 🤝

P.S. You are clearly still a crackhead! 😝

I might as well have some fun as I await my executioners.

Sometimes, you just have to laugh (to keep from crying).
And dangit, THAT IS WHY YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO WHAT WE ARE SAYING BECAUSE YOU DO NOT EVEN REALIZE HOW YOU ARE COMING ACROSS IF I COULD SOMEHOW DRILL THAT THROUGH YOUR MASSIVELY THICK SKULL I COULD DIE HAPPY. 🙄😫😔😭😭

Why are you annoyed with me? Contrary to popular belief (on forums, anyway), I am a good guy.

Truth be told, I will leave a bit sad about certain things. One of those things is that you and I never really came to be friends when we easily could have. I am definitely not who you sometimes think I am. I am, however, the lovable (and dare I say "irresistible"? :)) guy who just made you laugh. So there.
And for the record, @StillLiving4Him / Keepingthingsreal never said anything lewd or off-color in private conversation. The reasons I didn't want to talk privately had nothing whatsoever to do with that realm.
Thanks, I think. Do I want to know what the other realm was? Probably not.

Is the problem with the transmitter or with the receiver?

Seriously, I have been as cool as a cucumber throughout this whole ordeal.

Have you ever truly considered that you might be misreading me?

It is all water under the bridge now.

Where is an axe-wielding moderator when you need one?

OFF WITH MY HEAD!

Believe me, if I could pull a switch, then it would be a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Talk about a slow, painful death.

SHEESH!!!

Well, it is time for my final meal...

One person will understand...
But why?

We know you will come back. You know you will come back. It's not exactly a secret.

Why go the through the charade of leaving every time?

Why not just go away for a while and then come back under the same account? It would save a whole lot of hassle.

It was never a charade. Instead, what drew me back was things like checking up on people here that I used to minister to, regaining contact with a member here that I used to regularly exchange emails with until something happened to her server, me seeing a potential opportunity to minister to somebody while coming back here solely to copy a post that I had previously made, etc., etc., etc.

Anyhow, I really need to get back to writing my book, so I will have to witness my demise after the fact.

It has been real.

Farewell.

We'll see you when you come back, under whatever name you decide to be, and whenever you decide to tell us it's you.

Swallow your pride, keepingthingsreal.

You've returned because no man can abscond from the call of the ministry. If you want to facilitate reconciliation, find someone impartial who can mediate.
Btw, in case you missed it, I already put in a request to have this account deactivated, so I most certainly haven't returned to answer a call of the ministry.

Getting back to the topic at hand...

If I ever leave and then decide to come back... And if my name is not ocelot or serval... It will probably be Sir Choc-a-lot.

In all sincerity, what pride are you referring to?
Your choosing to withhold the overarching reason for your coming and going.

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but what is a man's ministry if the catalyst isn't always reconciliation?

Btw, in case you missed it, I already put in a request to have this account deactivated, so I most certainly haven't returned to answer a call of the ministry.
Comes across as a reaction to not receiving the pacification you might have hoped for.

And I say that as your brother.

But I did no such thing. Instead, I honestly and plainly explained the true reasons for my comings and goings. Why is it that you and others do not believe a man who is telling the truth? Knowing me a little, do you honestly believe that I would lie before both God and men? If you do, then you do not know me at all. Nobody fears God more than I do. Nobody. As much as I do? Perhaps.
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but what is a man's ministry if the catalyst isn't always reconciliation?
I do not deny that I was hoping for some sort of reconciliation before leaving here, but that is only possible if both parties are willing. At my end, I have honestly explained and apologized for my own wrongdoing which was basically a terribly worded post that got terribly misconstrued. I have no control over what the other party in any attempted reconciliation does. Why are your comments only directed towards me? Are you the aforementioned "impartial judge?" I have my doubts at the moment.
Comes across as a reaction to not receiving the pacification you might have hoped for.
It is not a reaction when I plainly stated, from the outset, that I only registered here to answer a question. Based upon the response that I received, I then made a genuine attempt at reconciliation. It is that simple.
And I say that as your brother.
Honestly, you are one of the few people here who I truly consider to be my brother, so I do take your words into account. That said, you seem to have misjudged me/my true intentions here.

Chocolate, cannot lie
Candy Crushers can't deny
Milk chocolate's sweet
A nice little treat
But dark is just more fly
You get hyper!
In a caffeine haze
Got energy for days
Don't care if it's orange or mint
Cocoa's gotta be 80%
