Or maybe he should......learn how to control his emotions

I thought that was a bit harsh. I didn't want to say that he lacked control considering this is only one part and I didn't want to judge the entirety on one part. He maybe an emotional guy. Just because one is emotional doesn't mean they aren't under control. They just pay more attention to how they feel then most.

I'm saying that because I'm exactly the same way.

I'm actively working on controlling my emotions and things are getting much better. My statement may have been blunt, but it's certainly not harsh. Things will turn around quickly if he's able to make a habit of controlling himself.

It was harsh in the sense that it may not just be emotions. He's not properly evaluating himself and his choices. Why do it if he knows he's going to feel that way. That in itself has little to do with emotions but common sense in knowing yourself. Anyways, why are you telling me? Tell him. I don't have the problem he has or you have.

I notice you sorta slammed the dude a couple of times now in the thread.

Sometimes people take a bit of time to process and learn from things.... We all make mistakes.... you understand what I mean...

No, I posted my opinion ONCE, and then two people didn't understand what I said and I felt I needed to clarify. Otherwise, I would not have posted a second time. You understand what I mean. But just for the record, yes, we all do make mistakes. I know I do. But when someone repeats them over and over and then wonders "why???", and doesn't LEARN from them....that's a "bit" different.

Just that questions here often strike me as rudimentary, like people in their 20s and 30s are asking questions better suited to 18-year-olds. I don't know if it's that the board attracts a certain subset of younger folks, or what. I hope it is that, actually, because it scares me to think that the things I see here represent the social skills of an entire generation of people.

At least you know that I'm always going to give it to ya straight.
I see that in this forum an awful lot. I think that is what is so annoying about them...I always want to think that it is a troll because, well, SURELY they know better!!
