This is a delicate predicament see...

How do you move forward from here?

As the crime committer it takes fortitude to move forward...

In order to do so you do need some kind of support. Fortitude doesn't exactly blossom from isolation.

Your wife can't support you because she IS the victim of the crime...

And wherever one turns for support they want to cast you as the victim because... I don't know... human nature?

If you don't cast yourself as victim... basically no support is forthcoming...
Or the wrong kind of support... but then as the crime committer you aren't really entitled to support are you?

So it's a fucked up situation... a fucked up situation I have dragged you all into...
Lucky you.

Wayment. She is obviously referring to a third-party boss, right?

Boss Clooney is sitting back in the VIP room with the Dom. He is waiting for the delivery of the goods.

Don't be fucking with the bossman, Okie. Consider that your warning.

I do believe there are several board members here who are serious boot-strap, suck-it-up-buttercup types. They see the need for encouragement as a weakness. (You psych types probably have a name for this, and I don't mean anything negative, like narcissist.) I will continue to support you in this bump in your journey as best I can. Who cares what they think? We all react differently to the curve balls life throws our way.

This is a great place to vent. Don't listen to the naysayers. The only opinions that matter are all in Canada with you.

OMG! He's trolling me on grammar now? LMFO....... poor Okee wants my attention so badly. Wonder why? lol... thanks for the additional affirmation that he's exactly where he needs to be, wrt my iggy box.

Not sure how that equates to him fucking with Martin, though.. :think:

We have different ideas about what constitutes a curve ball life has thrown at you.

Don’t mind me, I’m just waving the cross in front of the concern-vampires before they completely drain the poor guy.

I assigned you no victim status, but advised you to stand strong and redefine your relationship on equal terms. Don’t let the wound force you into a temporary state of servitude, because you’ll both resent it later.

And ummm, make it clear that she’s still appealing to you. With authority.

We know your character pretty well, doc. It’s a one-time fuckup, and it happens.

Has Van Helsing ever pardoned any vampires, tho?

I heard he granted a pardon, or some kind of clemency, to catass Flounder back in the day, though.

"No true vampire," and all that rot, eh wot?
