Dear eris:

It just occurred to me that in something that I wrote you might see an invalidation or a misunderstanding of your own real experience. I know the sensitivity and fear of being invalidated yet again, told I am wrong in seeing things the way they were. It is possible for me to see such invalidation where it is not. So please, anywhere in what I write that you perceive an invalidation, a misunderstanding, point to it for me and I will read what you write, and honestly elaborate on what I wrote, then ask you if my explanation is satisfactory to you before proceeding. I will be honest with you, and not use convenient or manipulative thinking. If I perceive invalidation of my experience by you, I will do the same as I suggest for you to do. I will point to where I see it and ask for what you meant by writing this or that.
