@fmf saidI didn't say I'd do anything with anybody's personal information.
Nope. Crystal clear, me. What you are saying you'll do with his personal information if Rajk999 were to give it tobyou, is a blight on your character, josephw.
You're in a fog.
@karoly-aczel saidHow come you are at someones place and not speaking to them?
Worst?
Oooh I've had many, all that have slid of me like Teflon.
But once I was at a girl's place. A girl I liked. And as I walked by her, no previous verbal exchange, she very quietly yet nastily uttered "freak".
For some reason this phased me and I had to go sit in my car for 20
@vivify saidThis isn't the first time you have fished for such personal information without providing your own answer to the question.
A major theme of religion is the ability to forgive wrongs committed against us.
Can anyone, if they don't mind, share a time they told someone "I forgive you", for a particularly egregious act done toward them?
@Rajk999
RE: that time you "borrowed" the umbrella from my Mai Tai and used it to clear out your earwax then stuck it back in my drink:
Whenever you are ready to apologize for that, I will forgive you immediately, but not a moment before.
@karoly-aczel saidWas it at a house party at her place? Maybe she was miffed that you walked past her without saying something like, "Hello, thanks for having me" or "Nice party, thanks for having me."
Worst?

(took me a few decades to learn about these social niceties)
@karoly-aczel saidThat's painful.

The first cut is the deepest.

@vivify saidI was terrorised by a violent mother as a child, to the point that eventually the authorities took me out of the family home, at the right old age of eight.

I cannot convey to you the full psychological damage that being beaten every day scarred me with; the sheer fear induced by just the sight of her (I was still wetting the bed at 9 as a result of her onslaughts.)
She bequeathed upon me a terrible view (distrust) of women; probably is the reason that I became so emotionally destructive (particularly in my teens/early twenties); and left me with a terribly anger and aggression, that took me decades to bring under some form of control.
I forgave.
