> > Emily! I'm sorry!!! Really I am, because what I was saying was actually against myself, and saying "good for you" for posing your results. I simply didn't dare.
> > I didn't mean to say that I know how you are feeling or thinking!! I just posted without thinking twice... I was wondering, curious... because I was more speaking for myself than of you -- and was kind of just wondering if maybe you were a bit like me. I was not judging you, and never said it was wrong to post your results... :(
> > In my post I was trying say that the way *I* am is to kind of want people to know about my "other" side, to not think that they know what I'm like, just be what I seem like...
> > I just can't express myself well. I realize, that especially the first part of my post came across kind of cold. I didn't mean it that way. I'm really sorry Emily, because I didn't mean to say anything to hurt you.

> See, I thought you were saying that I was trying to be showy by posting my results, and that hurt my feelings 'cause personally, I can't stand people like that. I guess I'm just too open with my sexuality. =o] But you all already know that. =oP
> Anyway, Heather, I'm sorry for thinking you'd say something like that about me. Fours can take everything way too personally, like I did. =o)

phew...!! Thanks Emily!
I kept checking the board hoping for your reply, because I felt so bad about the misunderstanding... and am so glad you forgive me, understand me :) You see, if I hurt someone's feelings, it hurts me... sniff... and I was agonizing knowing that I hurt you :(
I just feel better now, and am happy that you know that I would never say something bad about you or think badly about you. I DO understand taking things personally, getting defensive (it's my main "flaw"), so I am REALLY glad you made me explain myself. If anything, I admire your openess (spelling?) and I sure don't think you were wrong in posting your results, or anything!!!!
Love ya Emily!
Goodnight :)
