i would like to make it very very clear that i agree that everyone makes
mistakes and let's forgive and move on. and i think it is perfectly fine
to defend ken and to say good things about him for i have said all these.
what it is not bearable for me, is for some people to suggest what ken
has done is ok, and there was no manipluation and that it should be
taken as a model for communication among people on the list. to me,
these are totally insensitive to people who have truly felt manipulated.
and for your information, ken had written to me offlist to talk about
cindy and my relationship with 'her' and every time when i think about
that, i feel completely violated. so please if you are to help me and
others heal, and to re-establish our relationship with ken in trusting
terms, please no more celebration on ken as cindy. it is not funny.
and i am still waiting for the directives from the list owners.
