   think that was just Yoko's way of telling you that she was so busy with "real"   
   art and "real"    
   culture that she never noticed your scene. I think you believed her because   
   under all your bravado and surface confidence, you have a very poor sense of   
   self-worth. She told you that you were unimportant and you accepted it because   
   you secretly beleved    
   it, so much so that you gave away half your hard-earned position to someone   
   whose major talent was giving you her undivided attention.

   Yoko knew John's vulnerabilities and how to exploit them.  A person with a   
   stronger sense of self would have sent her packing -- as McCartney and David   
   Spinozza did.
