All of the explaining what Bob "may" have meant reminds me of asking someone what time it is and they tell you how to build a clock..........I don't feel that he is THAT complex, for pete's sake.
Even if he was being "clever", I took it in the context of when it happened and am laying aside all of the "psych" explanations and am viewing it as something someone mortal did. I feel that for me, putting it in a smaller box, in context, allows me to see it for what it was. Sarcasm. When I get a gut reaction by reading something someone wrote, that means something. And I actually felt it in my gut when I saw it. And it made me sad, as GG said. (I'm just going to stay with Ethel and try to get her to Tallulah's wedding without ten more disasters.)
Since I was the one to first mention the sarcasm, I feel that I would like to lay it to rest and not cause "newwife" anymore hurt. I feel that she suffered undue anguish due to what unfolded here. And to all that supported her, thanks. Sometimes just stepping up and having someone else's back really helps a person.
And I feel that "newwife" needs it more than Bob does.
