I refuse to abandon a whole group of people. I want a world where all types of people can live in harmony and peace and can all benefit from our incredible variety as a species.
I know this is exhausting and time-consuming, but I have learned so much from this, and I don't regret a fraction of a second of it. The most I can do is hope that eventually you look back on our discussion someday in a positive light, even if right now it doesn't seem possible.
we don't need you!!!! this is a weird hobby!!!
The hobby you are referring to is actually much broader than you realise. It is simply a desire to learn about the world and the people around me, and despite your efforts, I'm not giving it up.
I know you don't need me. I don't have any idea what you need. With my whole heart, I hope you get it whether I am a part of it or not.
oh now it's time for the concern-trolling fetish???
