FYI that’s what I did?

The prefixed lines are from katodna_cijev’s post above, unless I’ve messed up the formatting somewhere.

(Edit, I’m rate limited so can’t reply below, but yes, the ‘>’ are for stuff I’m responding to, the quoted stuff is from the poster we are both talking about and forms my response)

You said:

    "I'm 38. I date in my age group. Which means both of us are dating people that have been sleeping with others for two decades"
Which was a quote from heattemp99 above, so by the convention I was describing, that would be prefixed by a `> `

But

    > I did not sleep with other people while younger, why do you think it's OK to assume that about the parent commenter
I now realize was a quote from the poster above you, who must have edited it afterwards which is why it didn't show up when I searched for it, trying to follow the thread
