Giving Notice to Friends

[Alysser]

Please don't leave, Nicole. You just came back. Take care and come back when you feel ready. I'm sorry this happened to you, I have no idea what truely went on and I'm sorry it did.

Nicole, I have such bad feelings about gossip and hateful comments such as these. I must say that there is usually some reason (not necessarily good reasons) for folks to dream up such nonsense - and I cannot say it's always fair to the people involved. I have not a clue as to the whats and wherefores about your life and family's. I just cannot imagine someone making all of this up .... but would love to give you the benefit of the doubt. Some of the comments by this person and by you , in earlier threads, are so vague that it doesn't make sense to anyone on the outside loop. There always seems to be this mystery involved. Why are they so sure about their facts? Do people sit around and just dream up stuff like this?

Anyway, I think by posting it here, it is adding insult to injury. Just walk away from it if it isn't true. I for one, would never have known about the post you copied and pasted in this thread.

I don't usually get involved in threads like this....the drama is often too much ...and I seldom know what to believe.

All this said, I hope you get things back on track with your friends and that you can take the high road......get on with your life and be happy.

This thread is just tooooo confusing ......

I am sorry for your discomfort.

Woah, i am totally taken aback by this thread, i have no idea what is going on either, is this from PT or some other forums, honestly some people have nothing better to do than gossip or make up things and make other's lives a misery, just remember you are better than that, and don't give in to them, i am sure none of us here believe this nonsense anyhow, so why not stay, show them that they cannot get to you, and just move on, it certainly must be very upsetting though, HUGS.

Wow.

But i am wondering what the good is in this thread? are you trying to clear your name? If they say lies about you, just walk away. They can only get under your skin if you let them. Just go on and be happy in your life...you know who you are, you know what's real in your life, you know what makes you happy and what you live for. Just walk a way, don't look back, and breathe a little deeper knowing that they don't have the power to make you unhappy.

yeah it's all well and good to say just walk away....

But when they are claiming she PHYSICALLY ABUSES her children?

honestly would any of you just ignore that?

that is insane.


No way in the world would I just ignore claims that I beat my daughter. that is not something you just ignore.

I don't know what all is going on here - or was it somewhere else? Whatever. I agree with Cookiebaker - especially the sentence I put in bold.

[sparks19]

Again I have to disagree...

If someone accuses you of beating your children it's not a matter of just letting them get under your skin. this could cause a lot of legal hassles for the parents, CPS getting involved in a situation that they aren't even needed (which then takes them away from REAL cases of abuse)...

Something like this can very easily and very quickly go from "He said she said" to an investigation with little to NO proof. Happens all the time.

The people hearing and reading things, the people believing those things and in the middle is the truth.

Remember the fourth side - the side of the person being attacked.
