You make people paranoid. Wasn't it you that said you were going to start e-stalking me? Now i'm starting to think you already have.

I can assure you I haven't, nor do I plan to. I can't remember the exect phrasing of the post you are refering to, but I do remember that it was intended as a ruse to test your personality to see if I could find a trigger to your temper. Apparently it worked too well. You have a blunt, articulate, in your face style of writing and when combined with your temper, it cannot avoid being noticed and this caught my curiosity. My curiosity is pretty much satisfied now. I better explain why and how by PM once I know you have read this.

uh.. right-ho.

You can't really trigger my temper, not many people here can. Sometimes I just blow up because I feel like it, and I'm sorry.

You're not the one who needs to apologize this time. I was the one provoking you, making threatening remarks, and poking at your brain without regard to you as a person.

HB, I need to apologize for the cyberstalking remark. If I made it around the time I think I did, I had made several other rash remarks as well. My Anafranil (Clomipramine) had just stopped working and I hadn't realized that I need to watch my inhibitions more closely to compensate.

BTW your temper does have a trigger, but it cannot be set of by provoking you. It's not appropriate to discuss on the forums, so PM me if you still want to know.

I wasn't offended by it.. it just tipped my paranoia over the scale. Not a good thing, i'm easily paranoid as it is.

You've made it hard to be discrete. The triger to your temper is controlled by purely biological processes that cannot be provoked or appeased.

Wow, Hale Bopp's bodily workings are the topic of conversation everywhere these days...

Hale_bopp is not the first and probably not the last female I've made this observation about. I'll have to write up an article on identifying and forecasting pms sometime. It's really simle and I'm suprised more guys don't pick up on it. It really can come in handy for dealing with some female associates, but it's no good in a relationship.

But that would preclude any civilized interaction with them at any time.

so one can't have civilised interaction with a woman with PMS ever? at any time? amazing. how HAVE i managed to get through nearly 30 years of PMS and still managed to hold down various careers, relationships and social interactions? i must be a marvel.

How to react to a woman having a pms episode needs to be taken on a case by case basis. In some cases, there is more to gain than lose by being hostile. Other cases (Hale bopp's is one of them) it can be amusing. Most women don't don't demonstrate any change in demeanor I can notice, so I really could care less about pms except for the mood swings in people I have to be around.

I see nothing funny about PMS! Oh wait, I do: it's kinda hilarious when you are bawling your eyes out for no particular reason. But I'm the only one that is allowed to laugh. Unsympathetic over-analytical know-it-all guys are NOT!

I don't think it's funny and I hardly constitute a know-it-all, especially when it comes to feminine matters. I just know that pms cancause mood swings that I need to beware of sometimes. As of the time I'm writing this, it looks unlikely that I will have anything else useful to add to this thread unless it changes topic again or HB replies to it.
