    For the most part, yes I do. I try my best to follow the Golden Rule.

      That’s good to know. So let’s just imagine that there is some random guy, we’ll make up a name for him, er, um, D Randy, and he has NEVER filed a restraining order against you, he lusts after you incessantly, obsesses over you. One night . . .

    I said 'for the MOST part'. Now go away before I call the cops.

    Ditto for me on Jane S's answer.

    But, no, I would not use the word "exact" because we're all different. Yet, yes, I believe treating others, generally, as one would like to be treated is a great start to a better life for all of us and the world.

    For the most part I would be kind of spoiled.

    We all fail sometimes and are rude/mean to people....we all need grace. 
    The world would be better if we all were better and better at giving that grace to others. 

    I do try to do unto others as I would want done unto me.
