Was there something happening in his life that made him lose his mind?

I'd like to see him come back, but he first needs to spend a month or three on an island with his feet up and a drink in his hand.

One of the best life lessons I've learned from this site is to not take the internet too seriously.

Say your piece, point out obvious errors but at some point if the other poster(s) just want to stir shit it's far better to just move on from that thread.

Obnoxious MD who was bitter over a bad marriage.

The dude was pushing a pretty big bow wave, and, yeah, he was kinda bitter and cranky. I had him figured for just another garden variety GD asshole, until I noticed one of the other women here who I respect seemed sympathetic toward him.

This piqued my curiosity, and as I began read him more closely, I began to realize he was God’s own pissed, but he didn’t universalize his bad experience, didn’t project his wife onto all three billion women on the planet, didn’t play dominace games and pick fights with the women in GD like some of the other loveworn brokedicks here.

Then one day, it occurred to me I hadn’t seen him post in a while. Wherever he is, whatever he’s doing, I hope he’s found peace and I wish him well.

Anyway. The same arguments for 16 years get old. Sometimes you need a break.

It is interesting to note how many people on the board for 2 years seem to know all about me for the past decade and a half.

anyway. I'm still around. Just doing other stuff more often.

But, as it is with GD...
