I didn’t mean that people’s responses have no value. Of course there’s value to considering other perspectives. Sometimes those different perspectives give me a new angle on an issue that I hadn’t considered. So it’s all valuable. What I meant is in the end, I’m going to make up my own mind about a situation and my own feelings or opinions are what matter the most to me. No one here truly knows me, and I know myself best, just like any of us. And with Jay and these texts for example, it means to me that I prefer far quicker responses and I get very frustrated by people who take hours upon hours or days to reply. It annoys me immensely. So that’s my preference, and Jay’s style is different than mine. And that’s ok, but it’s not my style or preference. And I accept the fact that I want a reply within a reasonable or expected timeframe. So be it. I get impatient. So be it. It’s all ok.

Edited to add: I don’t like debates or arguing. And often it does feel like people try to argue against me on here frequently enough. I prefer not to engage in that kind of conversation.
