After reading your post,  I have a question:



            Is  Mark   " he "   or   " she " ?



If  Mark is  " he ",  then   WHO  IS   " she "  at the first appearance of this word in the post ?



And since I asked,  who is  " she "  at the first appearance,  it is logical to ask,  who is  " she "  at the second appearance ?




            Without clarifying these fundamental issues,  the problem cannot be solved.




The  " problems "  formulated so carelessly,
are good only to throw them to the closest garbage bin.



Waste of time.

When I criticize your formulation, you should not resent me.


Educated and intelligent people do not take offence in such cases.


In opposite, you should be grateful to me for my teaching.


It is a fortune for you that I captured your mistake and it did not go farther than this place.
