Steel, I appreciate the concern. Even though I talk like I always try to empathize with people, I've never let that line cross over to being taken advantage of or allowing people to treat me badly. I mainly try to be a good listener for Stimbo when he's feeling sad, but there's been no inkling that he is manipulating me, nor do I believe he has any ill intent towards me. "Don't confuse my kindness with weakness" and all that. Thank you for the concern though.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
