I want to clarify here. Emily is, if anything, in worse shape than she was 29 pages ago when she started posting in the infidelity forum, and I don't think she's made any progress in the more than 85 pages that she's generated altogether, because she is completely unwilling to change herself. At least, in the beginning, she pretended to have some integrity. All that everyone here has accomplished, with considerable effort, has been to make her lie, use her kids as weapons, and try to sleep around. She has not taken one single piece of advice from anyone -- on many occasions she has said that she would, but then she's really done the exact opposite.

I do not believe that Emily is incapable of change. I do believe, though, that she won't change. There are over 85 pages of sitch to support that contention.

There are plenty of people on these forums who really do want help, who aren't on this board just to jerk people around. Personally, though I'm certainly not trying to tell anyone else what to do, I think we should be spending our time helping them instead giving Emily the enjoyment of playing her little games.


The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)
