		<description>It&#039;s a bit hard for me to believe you were talking about a general situation, given the context.  But I also suck at reading context at the best of times. :P</description>

		<description>I...don&#039;t believe I used the word &quot;cruel.&quot;

Nor did I say that Bruno was a puppet. I referred to the phenomenon of people trying to jerk other people around LIKE a puppet.

Just so we&#039;re clear. :-)</description>

		<description>ronald, Bruno&#039;s problem is that she gets too much into her own head with too much isolation.  Her good friends realize this and try to encourage her to socialize.
It isn&#039;t cruel, it&#039;s kind.

Maybe it isn&#039;t always what she *needs*, but that&#039;s why she&#039;s said &quot;no&quot; to social gatherings, too.  She isn&#039;t a puppet, she does have boundaries.</description>
