		<description>Okay, folks...I think 183 comments still comin in a week later is a bit much, especially when only a small portion of them are constructive. I&#039;m closin em down. Kaya can open them back up if she likes.</description>

		<description>Nothing you&#039;ve said here is in contention as far as I&#039;m concerned.  I agree with Kaya (and with you) that a face-to-face relationship has far greater potential to be rewarding and fulfilling.  It&#039;s certainly always been my choice.  I think you have misread me if you think I am disagreeing on that point.  As commenter &quot;Will&quot; wrote several days ago, this post is really picking the low hanging fruit in the first place.  It is excruciatingly obvious that a relationship based solely on interactions through the Internet is not the same as living in the same house, sharing a bank account, raising kids together, sleeping in the same bed, etcetera.  Kaya claims there people who disagree.  Perhaps this is so.  It&#039;s hard to fathom.

Where you misunderstand me completely is in assuming that all the &quot;anonymous&quot; posts in the comments are mine.  They absolutely are not, and this includes the ones about spelling and grammar.  I am not, thank god, the only person in the world who is amused and/or irritated by the decline of literacy in the modern age.  You also misunderstand me if you think I am angry.  Not in the least.</description>

		<description>Anonymous, 

I think you are both right and wrong.  

I have read through the splintered threads of your arguments with others and surmise that your motivations are the same as those you accuse Kaya of.  Your posts have shown the intent to hurt, belittle or strike nerves.  Perhaps you are angry that you are not getting the attention you desire (no one appreciates your greatness huh?), so you take it where you can get it. I could be wrong, but this is what the case seems to be to me.

As for you being right and wrong, I think you are right about Kaya&#039;s post reflecting her anger and her frustration, but your armchair psychology is rather flawed if you don&#039;t look at Kaya in the whole.  

Kaya is an extremely strong minded, willed, spirited woman who has chosen to live the life of a submissive.  I do not believe this is an easy task for her, but I do believe she finds it rewarding.  

No matter how much her master tries to change her, the fact remains is Kaya is opinionated and her mind requires that she exercise that trait. That&#039;s great in general but not in her relationship.  

Her master in his  wisdom has seen this need in Kaya and wisely with or without intent has given her a forum to exercise this need.  She is also tired and frustrated with all the work from her move and needed an outlet to vent. She has such a forum, good on her.

I do not believe she was expressing her relationship&#039;s superiority in the least or trying to hurt anyone. I think she is pleased that her relationship is real.  I think she has that right; she has worked hard for it. 

Kaya was simply stating that real life trumps imagined fantasy. That my friend is true do you not agree?  

Lets put her argument in really shallow terms.  Would you rather have a real chocolate bar (providing you like chocolate), or simply look at the chocolate bar and talk about how it might feel to consume it?  

Granted I think this is a matter of &quot;your mileage may vary&quot;, but I just think she&#039;s ranting about the people who think talking about chocolate is just as good as eating the chocolate.  They think they have it made because they don&#039;t have to suffer the ill effects of eating the chocolate, no calories, no fat.  Do you understand?  I&#039;m sure Kaya does.

I do suggest that you find some other basis of attack than bad grammar and spelling.  Those are the tactics of the weak minded my dear. You know picking on the one thing you can because you can find no other flaws.

Don&#039;t bother wasting your time responding to me Anon, because frankly, I&#039;d care more to hear a fart in the wind than any response your angry little mind could muster.  I just wanted to speak up in defense of the attacks you levied against Kaya. Why? Because I felt like it.

Thank You.

And Kaya, 

Good luck on the move!!</description>

		<description>Maybe *what* is that stick up my ass?  Your two last sentences imply some sort of connection that doesn&#039;t seem to exist.  

*pulling my red pen out of my ass and circling your incoherent thoughts with it, then using it cross you out*

Goodbye.  :D</description>

		<description>Apparently your chices are also considerably limited.  All you know how to do is bitch about grammar while claiming to be above all this. Or maybe it&#039;s that stick up your ass.</description>

		<description>Sorry that I grouped all &quot;grammar Nazis&quot; together, you are all called &quot;Anonymous&quot;, as you know. So it is hard to tell which is which.

You are right, she is acting in the sense that she is unhappy with herself, so she is bringing others down to her level to make her seem bigger.

The problem is that in some cases, it is simply stress that causes these break-downs. Now I&#039;ve moved many times in my life, and I know that it is stressful. Although that isn&#039;t an excuse for the way she is acting, if indeed that is the case.

So I don&#039;t know, I wish I did. If she is unhappy, I wish I could help, but I can&#039;t so there is no point in arguing that fact.

Thank you,
Zoey</description>
