I appreciate that Steve. It is really comical that I was handed such an extreme case as Ravi for her to dig in about. How did you like her move that it was MY trickery that made Ravi say those things? We are such creative creatures. Despite the inability to ever admit that she was wrong, I am optimistic that good will come of this. I'm pretty sure the lip-service of a moral imperative for getting into other people's fights will die off. You couldn't get a better example than his behavior. I loved when she accused me of being nasty, but not him! But the chink of self-righteousness has become a gaping hole, and I just tagged it with spray paint.
The gentleman's club thing is very funny, right up there with "adult" movies! I think the big switcheroo on his story came about when Ravi realized that admitting to a crime on a public board might not be such a smooth move. I suspect his ex wields the legal system like Durga's cudgel, and he doesn't want another taste of that. This also points out the dangers of spiritual systems as a belief to support aberrant behavior. Ravi shouldn't be egged on, it does not serve him well. Real friends would try to help him realize that he can just relate to people as equals, and it is OK that he is a hapless guy with human desires trying to find his way. This transition as a single middle age man is really tough. They become invisible to the age group they are attracted to. Young people work them like a chump, or like they manipulate their own daddies. The more age appropriate chicks are not looking for a guy whose money all goes to child support. So they wander the clubs like phantoms pinballing off the bumpers of rejection. Not a pretty sight but a boon for the business of the "gentlemen's' club where lost souls can gather and dream of the days before the wheels came off, when chicks who looked like the ones on the poles would smile at you even if you didn't have a dollar out, folded lengthwise. Thanks for the sanity check. --- In [email protected], "seventhray1" <steve.sundur@...> wrote: > > > Excellent push back Curtis. I feel much better.
