   TaylorBean replied to TaylorBean's topic in Relations

   Just to clarify, again. The part after I said "the reason I was leaving was how it was handled" was not spoken words- if you read it correctly, it is narrative. And when speaking with him when I told him why I was leaving was due to how it was handle...
