1. I never blamed anyone else for "my actions" and I outline this very clearly in the post above. I'm not sure if you've read my blog post or not but in case you haven't please do, because it outlines my thoughts on the matter completely.

2. Many of these issues seem very nitpicky and minor. For example, your objection to "me and my friends" rather than "my friends and I" seems pretty unwarrented. The story is a third person narrative and people actually talk like that.

3. You have been personally vindictive and very rude to me with little to no provocation throughout our interactions and whether you intend to or not you come off EXTREMELY condescending. You are not my teacher, you are not my parent, you are another person. We are on the same level. I don't appreciate being talked down to like a child.

I don't like making enemies with people. I would very much like to start over, and I would loving it if we could let this go and start treating each other more respectfully. I appreciate that you've actually taken the time to write an elaborate critique now and I feel your criticism is valid even if I don't agree with it.

I would like it a lot better if instead of arguing, we could get along and actually talk to each other civilily. If you want, we can either do that or stop communicating entirely.
