You say you are confused about the Suki problem, and how she can be so ambivalent at times. Perhaps, she too is very confused, and is in self-denial about it. At least, you aren't in self denial and got all your ducks in a row concerning your bourgeois life. That is why I consider you an authoritative source on who is an who is not bourgeois. Of course, no one is perfect and you were totally wrong about me; although in one post you hit the mark of realization when you said that I don't pretend but am 100% a commie, and that is true. Now, the Suki problem is very convoluted indeed. No simple solutions to it can I envision. Perhaps, it is due to her age, although she perpetually goes out of her to say that she is "36" time and again, and nobody ever bothered to ask her her age as far as I know. It makes me opine that she may be a lot older than that; hey but that's alright it is only a white lie, and like sex no one likes to tell the truth about that. In one conversation, when she confessed to me that she was "depressed" in a real sense, I told her that depression is a mental condition, and needs to be treated clinically. Clinical depression is not something to be taken lightly, and the older one gets the more impossible it gets to effect a cure. You can imagine the response I got, when I was only being realistic and trying to be helpful. You can also see it in what was the bipolar incident which you participated your views about. If she admits depression then her bipolarism has gone beyond the normal mixed emotions stage, and is a the serious mental disorder known as manic depressive. She therefore needs treatment real bad, but continues in self-denial; if she continues she may last out her existence, since she has a husband who is a floor mat and will probably put up with all the tensions and stress of dealing with a wife who is mentally ill. This guy is probably the only thing she got going for her, and keeps her family from becoming an overtly disfunctional one.
As a burgesita she is painted into a corner, because she can't take the usual 'pills' that burgessas take and continue functioning rationally and civically in their lives. Man, she got humungous problems and needs professional help, and if she reads this will probably respond without thinking: "No! I don't!". BTW did you get to that thread that was the matrix of this Suki problem with me? It's in the Philosophy forum, I think and shouldn't be too far back in the archives, because not much is posted in that forum ever. Read it if you can, and trust me if you can't find it, that what I described to you is 100% accurate, but it does not take the place of reading her response in the original and all the nuances of it that she put into emotional shock over my having proved my point of view about 'trust', which she tried to challenge and "correct" rather than be tolerant and accept that other people don't need to have her points of view. Good luck!
