I got hung up on...

Everyone has pet peeves. Some people have a lot of them. I have one really big one: don't ever hang up on me. If you don't respect me enough to finish a disagreement with me or express your discontent in a way that I might answer or explain, you have no business calling me in the first place.

I was hung up on, yesterday. And since it was such a shocking offense from a commendable gentleman friend of mine, I think I'll post the phrase that got me 'dead air' on the other line and see if it sparks similar reactions here.

"Men deserve to be teased. If you're gonna call a woman a 'ho' for sleeping with you, don't surprised if she gets all the way to the bedroom and then tells you it's not gonna happen. She's not a tease... she's just avoiding being a 'ho.'"

Ms Best, just wanted to let you know that I just spent some quality time reading your blog. i think its great. keep writing. I'll keep reading.

Regarding your last blog (the hang-up one), I think you are totally in the right. The gentleman you've befriended seems like he's a little less-than-gentlemanly.

Mr. Block! I'm both flattered and glad that you enjoy my blogging. Some are more fiery than others, as you might have noticed. I would love to have your input as you see fit.

How did you find the blog?! I think I gave you that address a decade ago!
