My hubby doesn't like to go out much so....

I didn't speculate a reason for her lack of replies, I said it is 'quite telling'. She created a thread about her marriage and avoided all but three of the comments. All of the comments she avoided were about exactly the same topic, her lack of communication. Avoiding 95% of the thread's comments is a significant statistic, hence why I said it's 'telling'.

OP, it's quite telling that you are choosing to avoid the many comments and questions about why you prefer to fool your husband into taking you out, rather than just talking to him like an adult. Maybe she just doesn't want to argue with assholes who read too much into things.

As shown here, you think the people who make the comments and questions about why she fools her husband are assholes who read too much into things. Do you know who made a comment about fooling her husband? Me. Ergo, I am one of the assholes. Simple as that. Also, if an asshole reads too much into things, you can't say I read too much into things without also calling me an asshole.

I don't think that 'maybe' is the key word at all and cherry picking it from the sentence rather than looking in context completely ignores the meaning of your sentence. The second half of your sentence was accusatory (of reading into things), it was directed at me and other assholes (as shown above) the tone of the sentence was negative (calling people assholes) so it wasn't purely a speculative reason for her lack of replies at all.

I am not going to continue with this exchange as I don't want to spend anymore of my free time discussing words and meanings of an relatively unimportant topic with a stranger. And the fact that you actually wrote down and wanted me to know that I 'haven't proven you wrong' shows you take this far more personally than I do. Lighten up! Over and out.
