Hi Ellie,

But I find it quite disturbing how many women are jumping in and agreeing with her that her H has done something horrible!!! I feel sorry for you men!!!




People jumping in and agreeing, for the sake of agreeing, is something that's happening more and more on Michele's board. I find it a disturbing trend.

It's disturbing because they actually believe they are helping the individual when all they are doing is taking the discussion into the twilight zone of unreality. They believe they are accomplishing something.

We both saw it with people supporting MacDonald. And it's happening in Johanna's thread over in divorced as well. Not much is getting accomplished in terms of helping the person.

Even more disturbing is that when someone actually does try to bring the discussion back to reality (like moi) we receive emails telling us to back off from some of the agreeers! And the emails are quite threatening! I know I had it happen to me before Xmas. People don't realize that that's happening in the background.
