I can appreciate where you were coming from in the beginning, patro78. Yes, sometimes the pm's can get a little bit exhausting. I simply delete them, so they don't bother me, and I would not put them out on a public forum.

However, I understand how some of the other ladies here would get frustrated, especially when they have advised they are not interested and it continues or they receive nasty comments out of anger because some of the men feel rejected.

I also appreciate that you actually thought about your argument, whether members agreed or not, and that you were mature and friendly in setting aside the disagreement. There are those who cannot bring themselves to apologize, or to accept an apology, and move on..................

P.S. Just in case, there is no implication of doing so toward anyone in this thread. I am sure there are histories with some members, but I don't really know what they are. My statement is meant to imply "in general".
