reading this was like an arrow through my chest. I feel so much for you, OP. same goes for paultagonist who has posted here - I feel so so much for you both. I hope you have good evenings, at least :)...

Holy shit. Exactly. I have no idea why but repeating words after someone says it is the easiest thing. ...

I either say yes, or this is Phil. Hello suuuuuuucks....

And for some reason, right after they say it, you could say it just fine....
