lupestripeThe events of last night have floored me. I just feel ill. I feel I am going to be sick. I feel like crying. I feel I have fucked up and I hate myself because of it. I hate my opinions, I hate the fact that I don't fit in and I hate the fact that I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I have read back what was said last night and I apologise for the lack of tact in some of what I wrote. However, I only commented in general terms and not about anyone specifically. However, I have written apologies to those involved because I accept I should have been more tactful and I really didn't want to offend or hurt anyone. The guilt is crippling me. Quite literally. I have always hated debating and expressing my point of view because I fear being judged by it. So great work there Lupe.
In reality, all of this was smoothed over last night and the debate continued for another hour. It was at this point when things became abusive and I can't see what triggered this apart from me saying I was going to bed. This was in a PM and I thought we had had quite a lively debate going.
As far as I'm concerned, I have done all I can to put things right. I have apologised but not once did I deliberately insult anyone. In fact, my initial bluntness was replaced later on down the line by a more measured approach accepting that everyone is different and what works for one doesn't necessarily work for another. I accepted I was initially wrong and backed down slightly.
I don't know the way forward - I just hope I can be forgiven for what I said like I have forgiven others for what was said to me. Sometimes these things happen in debates - I just want everyone to get on.
