This post was mostly inspired by certain friends of tigerphoenix's that believe I am the sole source of misery in her life and that it would be magically perfect overnight if I disappeared from her life forever. Some are people who knew me briefly, but seem to have already prejudged me from the start; others I met maybe once, before they heard about me from the first people and decided sight unseen what I'm like.

But I don't want anyone's ass kicked, really. It just scares me that people who don't know me would judge me like this -- when they really ought to know better.
