Very happy for you getting two comments starred. Good going gurl

What I have learned about people is that you can lead them to water but that does not make them drink.

The point I am making is once you state your comment,it is there. It is not going away. So why do you have to keep repeating and also demanding people answer you?

Now I am not being ugly to you when I tell you that people usually do what they are going to do, no matter what.

Commenters on here post the help and leave it. Then they move on to help another sincerely speaking.

This forum is not like facebook and stars and likes mean nothing to a person who has had their heart ripped out.

Over the last few years we have been able to save others by sharing our stories. I hate that the forum is so disruptive. Hurting people see this like it is now and they will breeze on by.

Not sure how Mr Pipes will handle this as he is looking for suggestions. It may had gone so far that we may lose the forum.

I have not posted my story. I mainly watch and learn. Occasionally I will post.

Now I was getting close to telling it, but honestly there is more attack given than compassion. More judgement than understanding. No I dare not share now.

I know their are others who are reading and will not reach out and share because of this damaged forum
