I don't think you hate me, I was just following the form of Bryan's post.
Parts of what you have said I can agree with, others parts I feel are an over reaction but essentially correct. Then there are parts which I disagree with but can at least understand their origins. However the line about my wanting to spend time with you because I am lonely and did not have other people to see seems so far from the truth that I commented on it. From my point of view I chose to spend time with you because I like your company and I enjoy talking to you; there were many times I turned down invitations so as to spend time with you. And many more times I could have made arrangements with friends but chose instead to see you.
As for livejournal etiquette. When I spoke to you on the phone I was incredulous that you had made a livejournal post about what happened at Neon. Perhaps you don't remember my feelings on livejournal. So I read it and not surprisingly didn't like what I read although Tara's comment was at least amusing. At that point I decided to avoid further conflict by avoiding livejournal so I deleted my account. Later some friends informed me that there were further comments and posts. So I reactivated my account and had a look but by that time you had already taken me off your friends list. One of those friends let me log on as them and take a look. I personally think that was perfectly legitimate since you were talking about me in a semi-public forum and I should have the right to defend myself. That I chose not to is because I think this is a private matter between you and I.
