What a wonderful post! And I KNOW whose thread they've been reading, even if this was posted under another forum. NOBODY can continue to post the same ol same ol dribble daily and go on about GAL when they were only married for a fraction of their life. No sir - they've got MAJOR ISSUES. And the trouble is - they come across as intelligent and newbies trust them. That is the scariest part for me.
I did NOT like some of the advice given to me throughout the years but BOY - most of it was dead on. Because who would bother to post to me if they didn't have anything to say. And it is so much easier to look at someone when you're not in their shoes. I made mistakes. I learned. And I tried the advice. But NEVER did I ever in 7 years post'
"DO NOT POST TO ME". This is ridiculous. And SO childish.
This is a public bb. It is not meant to be a place to blog or to influence others regarding our political or religious views. That is not to say you can't say "God Bless America" - which contains both a religious and political statement (I am Canadian by the way) but you shouldn't go on about the candidates or why your church is better (IN MY OPINION).
When you have to start your thread with "now what will I talk about today?". When you drone on about your imaginary baby and your imaginary boyfriend when you've made no progress on that in 6 years - you are STUCK and need far more counselling than this bb can offer.
The sad part is that the moderator allows this garbage to continue. New men to get sucked into the web this black widow weaves and all the good people here end up leaving because the mood has focussed on the offender. I just wish everyone on the bb would hit IGNORE but I find we don't because we try to help those who don't know any better.
This was an awesome post to print here, Jill. Thanks for taking the time!
