Honesty with a loving touch

[Jeremy]

Your last post just gives me this image of the 'proud male, puffing out his chest', saying, "Bah! Who needs feelings?". It's rather comical.

I am no such thing lol so for you to imply such is purely based upon some bias within yourself. 

Such feelings are counterproductive to me because it involves illogical,  emotionally driven responses that accomplish nothing. Once one balances enough to allow one to analyze the situation without such emotional response,   a more balanced interaction  and communication can occur.
