I think I've lost all credibility with Dr. Bob. :-(
Maybe that's why he doesn't answer my questions. He can never know whether I'm asking a question just to get his attention. Maybe I'm writing this to try to make him say something to me.
I have a feeling he doesn't take me as seriously as other Babblers. Maybe he thinks I play games.

It's like pouring water into a pail with a hole in it, huh?
Just a pun. No harm...

I don't think so. However, I suspect that he thinks that one of the issues that you struggle with is engaging in dramatic behaviors to get attention. But, it isn't because you are a bad person or because you are "playing games." It is one of the things you struggle with. Some people struggle with acne, some struggle with acid reflux, that's life. This is the hand that you are dealt and now you have to understand it and work with it.Additionally, Dr. Bob probably doesn't answer all of your ?'s b/c he doesn't answer all of the ?'s directed toward him on this site (time constraints, partly, I bet). Also, sometimes other babblers can answer your ?'s and sometimes they seem rhetorical.
BTW, sorry abt your toothache. A mini-caution, careful abt taking advil (and others) on an empty stomache or more often than suggested. I have gotten some awful tummy aches doing that, okay?
Best,
EE

I'm certainly not playing games on purpose. Maybe sometimes things get so dramatic that it seems like games are being played. I'm glad you don't think I'm a bad person. :-)

I don't think I really understand it yet.

Also, sometimes other babblers can answer your ?'s and sometimes they seem rhetorical.Another reason is that sometimes I ask inappropriate questions...questions that try to elicit more interaction than Dr. Bob allows.

I didn't know that Emily. Thanks for letting me know. I take a lot of Advil.
