I have lost faith in your ability to "cause [you] to reflect, learn something important in [your] life, and put things in a proper perspective."

Why is mine a cheap shot? Because it comes from somebody who is not you?

So, "it doesn't satisfy [you]". Guess what, I am working on not caring what satisfies you.

"I'm getting the impression that you want to claim something you cannot substantiate- but I'm really not happy with impressions."

Oh, whatever.

"I would love to base my feelings on specifics. How have I offended you?

Yes, Jim, you offended me.

Avoidance may not solve anything between us. I may have decided that the anguish you inflict is not worth trying to solve.

The thing that makes me saddest is not what you do, but the missed opportunities that you created.
