Thread Name: BS: Peace, Brucie, Bruce Don't go
Subject: RE: BS: Peace, Brucie, Bruce Don't go
Apparently, from the PMs I have ruffled some feathers. So I will explain a bit further: if I were being stalked or threatened, even over the 'net, I would first contact the police and the Forum owner and then do everything possible to avoid my stalker. By tweaking Brucie's nose at every opportunity, you appear to be a woman scorned rather than one who sees herself in serious danger from her stalker.

If he has "taken advantage" of you, you were a party to it. Each of us has a responsibility to protect ourselves on the internet just as we do in real life. If you meet a charming stranger on the street corner or are introduced to one by a friend in a bar, do you then believe every compliment? Do you invite him home based on those compliments? If so, you are going to find yourself in difficult situations.

I am genuinely sorry that you are hurt and/or frightened or have been "used". This doesn't give you the right to destroy a man's reputation anonymously. If you have a genuine criminal complaint, take it to the proper authorities. If not, let the rest of us figure it out for ourselves. One of us may actually find Brucie the perfect mate.
Poor Brucie!
