Re: AATB YGPM

  • Also, I realize that the fact that I have had a really bad couple of days make me really effing sensitive in general (I didn't get the job I applied for and I just generally hate life right now) but I still think this is so messed up.

    [QUOTE]OKAY LADIES. I am pissed...I know this is just some random message board in the grand scheme of things and I know few of us really know each other but I am PISSED. Kate...I literally CRIED when you posted that your FI died. And then I laid in DHs arms and told him how scared I was to lose him like that.  I think you are horrible and twisted and need to get a life because if you have fun posting lies like that you need some help.

    Oh no! We need to be job hunting buddies because I need a new job too. For some reason the people who want to interview me are programs that I am not interested in. As far as Kate's whole story, if that is made up, she is seriously twisted! I remember that my m/c was around the same time, and when I saw her post I thought to myself....as upset as I was, "Well, it could be worse. I could've lost DH!" Shame on her if her pants are on fire!

    I definitely understand that, Nuggs. I'm too lazy to search for any of this stuff myself, but like Nates said, it would be 100 times worse if she made all this shiit up.

    I read the thread she made and felt an awful lot of sadness and empathy, and I just don't understand why all the discrepancies. Infortunately, TK makes you suspicious of things because of past experiences.
  • Aw, Number, that sucks.  Can I junk punch anyone for you?
  • Numbers, I did a similar thing afterward. I talked to J about it and was so upset at the thought of something like that happening to him.

    [QUOTE]I'm not yet convinced Kate is a troll yet. I guess I just hope nobody would make up a story about their FI dying. When she posted about it here on SB, I was shocked and I felt so bad for her. I kept thinking of how I would feel and deal if this happened in my life. Even if her story is fake, she still gave me a lot to contemplate about life and love.
    Posted by kodakitty[/QUOTE]

    Yup. All of this. I'm not totally convinced either, I'm just suspicious/curious.

    But you're right Koda, it was a reality check either way.

    No, I get you.  I didn't want to be the first to say it because I thought I'd look like a huge diick, but it just didn't add up.  There are lots of people who do this shiit online.

  • For real I mean, unless someone gets straight up busted or is so ridiculous that it's obvious, I just err on the side of caution.  Especially with something like this.  I mean, what if it's true, and people are telling her she's sick and twisted and a horrible person?

    I usually keep my suspicions to myself. Im of a suspicious nature so sometimes it amounts to nothing, but a lot of the time (here) it turns out to be true. The fact that she never came back, is just another strike. I dont start a thread, get a bit of slack and then get conveniently busy so I cant come back for hours on end. Ever.

    I have 25000 posts, and I would probably be hesitant to start posting things like that. I love the peeps here, but the regs i know arent the only ones here and tragic experiences are private in my opinion. You dont just share them with strangers, you know? So its even weirder when a "newb" blurts it all out.

    I know, it comes across a little assholey. I do feel bad but something just isn't adding up with her stories here especially now that the threads on TN have come to light. I hope it's nothing or maybe other details of her life were embellished but her FI really did die ... because that's just not something you should make up. It really affected a lot of people.

    Very true. That's why I asked her to come back and explain.

    I don't want to hurt her feelings if everything is true. Not at all. I felt for her so very much when she posted about her FI's death. I agree there are some things that don't add up, but I don't totally believe it's fake.

    With that said, that may be the way you'd react to it, and it makes sense. But I know I wouldn't. I'd come back like a bat out of hell and explain myself. But that's me.

    I don't want to believe that someone could make shiit like this up. But people do. I hope if  she's reading and she's real she understands that we're not trying to be assholes to her, but we've sort of been burned before or seen this type of thing happen before. It's like the story of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. There's only so many times people want to let themselves fall for something.

    Well, I definitely wouldn't have done it unless I remembered seeing the thread about her being a fake. Even if I think people are fake 9cough*armyofus*cough) I don't actually look into it. I just remain suspicious! But in this case there was actually a trail to sort of back up the accusations.
    my read shelf:
    Meredith's book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)

  • Also TO BE FAIR, she might not be lying about losing her FI. But the stories she told about losing her FI on 9/11 and being pregnant w/ triplets appear to be made up. And considering her history, I'm just suspicious in general.

  • I just want to post that this really upsets me. When she was posting about her FI being hit by the car and passing away it threw me back into the depression I had surrounding a family friend being paralyzed and passing away around christmas time. I thought about her (Kate) pretty much non stop for a while because of what we had gone through and how much pain she was in. Maybe it was because she said she was going to a hospital outside of DC, it would have been Shock Trauma, and we seriously spent a month there going pretty much every day to visit our family friend. Ugh.

  • Ok, so just so I'm clear for the future...calling someone a troll who supposedly recently lost her FI = ok, but calling someone a troll who supposedly recently left her FI and suffers from depression = asshole move.  Got it.  I think.
