Can you say yes to any of those questions without getting your ass kissing in the way? Stop candy coating it. Like him if you want. Think he is funny if you want but stop trying to protect his feelings. He wants to be a kinder softer brute.
sky, i never said i wanted to be kinder or softer. I didn't say i wanted to change who i am. i just want to understand what specific reason some of you have for labeling me as a bully. maybe i'm just stuck on the word. i fully admit to occasionally being rude, and caustic, and maybe even a little mean sometimes. the whole bully thing involes fear, though. why would you be afraid of me?

You've mentioned exposing unknown truths as a form of bullying. could you elaborate on that? particularly, what makes it bullying?
