Because the human race is full of dickheads.

(I'm new so I'm not sure exactly what kind of language is permitted here, I did see a few people using the f word though, so I'm assuming it's ok. If not, please don't ban me lolol just PM and I'll remove it.) 

yes you're right, humanity is full hmm .. I'll not express badly about half of us.. Tongue
but you're right people are cruel!!!

Are you worried about your language? and what should I say ... hehe Big Grin I have some serious language problems, but you?!

I don't have enemies that I am aware of. But if I did I admit I'd probably want to keep my distance. I'm not a confrontational person, plus it would just feel awkward.
"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."

You know, I understand you very well. Smile

Tied up in the corner seemed the best choice for me. It leaves open many options.

I tend to 'help' people with that myself, Fireball.  Tongue
But I've grown up half in the USA, half in India, and read British fiction from the 1940s way too much. I daresay I have a weird, half English, half American writing style, and sometimes make grammatical mistakes too. God (OOPS) save the queen. 

Regarding enemies, though, I had only one once. No one has seemed particularly inclined to cross swords with me again. I'm nice enough until you piss me off, and I enjoy confrontations, as long as they're full of wit and not just blatant insults. But I'm truly a nice enough person that I rarely get into confrontations, lol.
The word bed actually looks like a bed.
