Someone who could be a friend decided he knew more about what papers and belongings I had were important than I. Even the bathmat I bought, because he didn't have any idea how they might be useful in the room/bath I rent from him, he decided to throw out. Even after I said "Let me pick up the stuff under the sink, give me a chance. All I could do this morning was scrub the tub on my way to work, due to time." He doesn't allow anyone else the grace he demands for himself.
I cannot respect him enough to consider forgiving him for such constant violations of my person and life. He even has a bloated idea of his intelligence and worth (as a classical musician, of course I am "not very good - how much do you earn?" - even though I have a large resume, and continuing contracts. I am still trying to beat some doors down, and it's coming along.)
I've thought of forgiving him, but it seems too good for him. Once I can leave, I can try to ignore him, even forget. awel.

Your positive outlook in the midst of all the stuff happening is amazing. I love the term you coined - The Culveyhouse Effect :).....I certainly took your advice and forgave someone. Will tell you about this in person...

Thanks for the insight, and I've been wondering about that difference too. Happy April, Dorotea Dorotuki
