yes, and I think Deneb will confirm that has happened, i.e., no one responds. And I don't even think she minds terribly either because she has come to understand and also she does it more for herself (and the idea at least Dr. Bob will see it). [Deneb, *please* feel free to correct me if I am wrong here...]
Of course, it's a bit of a conundrum. Those who feel strongly that Dr. Bob should discourage (or not allow even) this kind of posting may feel that by even bringing up the option of non-response, *their* own needs are being stifled. I can see that. OTOH, it may encourage or make more likely more posts about Deneb's feelings for Dr. Bob by more and more posts discussing different aspects in a thread such as this and others in the past.
I don't have the solution, I'm afraid.
Personally, I like all the posts as long as they remain respectful. I think it's because I feel I learn things about myself and my own feelings about love in all its aspects, and expressing it for real and/or imaginary figures. And about how others feel differnly or the same as me. Fascinating.
I do worry when a thread like this begins, though, based on past experience especially as a deputy.I think we have to be careful not to lead Deneb to feel put down by labeling her posts or posting topic/style with negative adjectives. As well as not labeling those posts from posters who prefer she not do it. It can happen so very easily, but less if you stop and think and re-read....I know I've had to. Not just in this thread/topic, but I mean ALL the time when I choose to post.
