the latest comment from “Cissy”, though this time she is not in California, but somewhere in Canada and has Rogers as her internet provider:
you are absolutely right you are entitled to rant and bitch as much as you want but….. reality has to set in. this so called guy you have been dating on and off is just that on and off as he wishes. most likely he has a serious girlfriend that you are not aware of.but really, you have to get a grip of your self. if this blog is a way to treat whatever issues you have and recommended by a professional then so be it.you are 39 years old and from what i have read on your site you have to come terms with your entire life to date. if there are dreams to chase, then chase them. finish what you start. if you have family issues then sort them out and come to terms.if you are not happy then seek help on why it is. life to too short to live in fantasy land and frankly i see a very frail individual that is looking to others for help. good luck with the rest of your life you deserve to be happy.
why are you stuck on my seeing or not seeing this man? when was the last time I mentioned him?? and in case you are wondering, I am fully aware that he is seeing someone, and that he is a bald faced liar, untrustworthy, has little to no professional or personal integrity and that he has used me mercilessly for the last 8 months or so
and also that I am done with him
we have to deal with each other professionally for the next year, but other than that we have no contact
as for the rest, I am not that fragile – I have feelings and am sensitive about certain things, but am certainly not on the verge of collapse or anything
but thanks for the concern, really I mean that
I also fail to see how talking about the unavailability of MAC eyeshadow, or fabulous books I have been reading or cheesy 70’s music or just about anything else that’s been on my mind of late points in the direction of needing professional psychiatric help, but whatever
and for the record? you my friend Cissy are a coward for hiding behind your anonymity and by passing such judgement on others one might ask why hide?? though I think I know the reason why … and if I am right then I pity you because seriously, the man is nuts and needs professional help
I only hope that it’s not too late – if nothing else his kids deserve better

Whoa. Hmm. I think sometimes people confuse what the idea of leaving a ‘comment’ means. I think it’s okay to state your opinion on a topic, or a personal experience, but to rant about an individuals personal character when it’s not been asked about, just seems a bit… off to me. I hope that Cissy realizes that if you want a judge of your character, you will ask for it. (By the way, in case you were curious… I’m Canadian, but my provider is Telus ; )

😉 I love that I just fucked up an emoticon.

Brandy, and here I was thinking you were “Cissy” and getting all judgmental on me!! 🙂
this comment also came at a most inopportune time, given that mere hours before the true chracter, or lack thereof, of the man in question crystalized

I’m too lazy to judge people. I’m all about letting people fly their freak flag. Besides, if I’m going to judge anyone, I would have to start with myself and good god, I do not want to do that.

Wow. That’s about all I can say. I’d love to read Cissy’s blog and find out just how perfect she is.

oh finn! there is nothing like a bunch of advice when you dont even ask for it. what ever happened to the “if you dont have anything nice to say” idea? do people not get that? does it make people feel better by putting others down? i just never get that. you are doing a great job responding to this. i hope it all comes to an end asap.
August 8, 2007 at 12:23 pm
wtf??? It’s YOUR freaking blog! You can write whatever you want. Cissy has way too much time on her hands if she feels the need to judge you like that. Didn’t anyone ever teach her that unwanted (and unwarranted) criticism/commentary/judgement, especially of someone who is not a friend, is rude?

I’m with mydogischelsea… unasked advice is bad enough even coming from someone you have an ongoing relationship with. But from someone who just reads your blog? Puh-leeze….
