TinkerBelle, ummm if you don't mind my thoughts.... You didn't ask for it. I mean nobody asks for or deserves to be treated badly. Even in a no strings relationship I think one deserves the right to know the direction they're headed and respect for their feelings. I'm sorry if I sound like some blowhard, but it worries me to see a person think they deserved disrespect.
