Joe Offer, you are a good, fair man.

The Lady member who posted did so courageously and added an authentic current real-life break-up situation. Those who got the chance to read it learned something invaluable about how break-ups adversely affect not just the two very good people involved but also many others.

Everyone should accept what happened to both of them without criticism. If you have been in their situation before then you know very well what I am saying. A break-up is one of the most gut-wrenching experiences short of death that people can experience. The best of people will do and say things very much out-of-character for them during a break-up.

The one recommendation I have is the GUEST that posted the salacious, slanderous remarks should be banned from Mudcat, as should any others that post such direct character assassinations in this thread or elsewhere on the forum.
