Rushing again

I think where the advice "keep an open mind" comes in handiest is when a girl has gone back at least three times and still feels iffy about a chapter or just doesn't know.

My point is I don't think she was trying to begin with. I think she went into rush with the "ABC and XYZ take everyone" stereotype firmly planted in her brain and didn't bother to find out if the "everyone" they took included people that she would truly like and love as sisters. And even when she said "I'll keep an open mind if I go through again!" she persisted in repeating the stereotype in her posts.

Understood. If she rerushes, it's best done with an open heart and an open mind.
