Everyone needs to remember that we are all here together, going through bad things together and remember to be kind to one another.
Yes, goldengirl, you do.

When someone tells you that what you are doing is hurting them, you should STOP. When you do NOT STOP, and you continue to argue how right and justified you are, and what a loving and kind person you are despite pleas to the contrary, you are being ABUSIVE. And no amount of reasoning, strutting, or taking sides is going to make you RIGHT. Not here, and not in "real" life.

And Tally, I won't repeat what you said in your last post but you need to know that there are regular members of F&F whose children and other family members who have recently committed suicide. It may be funny to you, but it is NOT funny to them. Also, newcomers come here every week scared out of their minds because their alcoholic spouse or significant other is threatening to kill themselves, or has attempted to kill themselves. What you think is YOUR RIGHT to joke and make light of this issue because you need to vent, does NOT trump the person who is in crisis. You folks were told that others were having a problem with what you were doing but you want to continue to JUDGE and JUSTIFY. Does this sound at all like someone else you know?

You folks do not seem to understand something and that is this is a forum for MANY people, not just you. And when ANYONE here expresses that they are having a problem with how you are approaching something on the forum, it is in the best interest of the forum that you LISTEN.

There is no right or wrong person here, you do not know what is best for anyone else, and if you want to get along with others, it is best not to tell them what to do. If you knew how self-righteous you sound, you would think twice before posting about anything but YOU.
