OK ... Libby made another Live Journal entry ... and my reply is below

First - I never said I had a problem with open relationships. I understand that they are the only type of relationship that works for some people. I did say that they are not relationships with 100% commitment. That's what makes them open! If the relationship was 100% commitment then there would be no other partners to talk about. The fact that it's ok to have other partners as long as you tell the other half makes it an open relationship and breaks the 100% commitment part. UNDERSTAND?

Second - I haven't been asking what you meant by "I care" I have been asking what you meant by "too much". It's a line you used first in your LJ posts and carried over to our e-mails. You said that you "care for me" and then went on to say that you "care too much". They are TOTALLY different things. Was is a conscious choice of words?
