Rules for fighting?

As in, I am weak, cannot deal with life as it is and call me immature but making up rules is to endure what I ain't digging yet?

No name-calling... who is the wimp who takes things personal? Not enough of an adult to be insulted?

No labeling overlaps with the previous rule.

No bringing up the past? Die to it. DO forget it. Dip yourself in oblivion.

 'Are you willing to be sponged out,

erased, cancelled, made nothing?

Dipped into oblivion?

    If not,

    you will never really change.'

 D. H. Lawrence, Phoenix 

And what about the freedom that everyone decides for itself how to behave, express, be? Thus, dig up the past as much as you want, too. Especially if it sets one off. Not that what is done matters, but if it needs rules to fight, the jaw drops. Let what is finished come back to haunt until it can handle so. Who cannot deal with life as it is, should limit itself. Imposing something on someone else is toxic, which is the opposite of what these rules are for. How blind can you be? Be an example, not someone's judge. Restrict yourself for whatever reason, but leave the other out of it. It ain't anyone's business to tell it what to do. No excuses.

No 'always' and 'never'... is this a child's game?

No hitting below the belt... 'I don't want to get hurt. Do not confront me, so I will never face my demons.' Be grateful when it happens; you couldn't have done it yourself, so thank it for showing a blind spot. Who can imagine that Jimmy Rex is so convinced and sure about his rules, he doesn't see he is sticking his head in the sand like an ostrich? If you can't fight fully, cannot live life's potential; work on yourself, take distance and don't go into relationship since you're not ready to deal with how you feel. Unless you are okay suffering the consequences. Though, from another point of view, why fight?
