Ok everyone:  Its time to get back to normal here.  My heart truly goes out to Tia and Kristen;
Do I feel sorry for Eric ; hell no but thats just my opinion and as cira says everyone has one.

I am posting this because I feel its time to let this all go; Tia and Kristen need our support:
not all this name calling ****;  I just received a phone call from Tia and shes truly torn.
She is thinking about not coming back to the board at all and I know Kristen posted
last week that she is going to take a break as well.

These two women are not the villians:  they need our  love and support;
and if you cann't offer them that - don't make them feel worse by blasting
them:  They are both hurt -  and blasting them on the boards will not help.

I am sure there are many details we don't know - and we really have no right to know;
Tia and Kristen will deal with this as they see fit.

PLEASE PLEASE PEOPLE  ;  GIVE THESE LADIES A BREAK

Darla:
Here's my 2 cents ~ I know, no one asked, but here it is anyway.  If we lost Tia and Kristen, this board would be "less" than what it is now and what it has been.  These women offer inspiration and motivation and support to so many of us (as well as comic relief).  Please don't go!!!! 
I can only imagine what the two of them are having to deal with at this time, but I'll be the first one to say that there is NO ONE perfect!!!!  We have all made some bad decisions, indescressions(sp!) and been LIED to at one time or another.  We all want to feel good about ourselves and some people just know how to make us do that.  So, Tia and Kristen, you ladies both get a pat on the back from me!!!!  I can tell you you're beautiful and successful and smart and have great sense of humor (all in the back of your minds your going ~ yeah right), but it's only the two of you that can believe it for yourselves!!!!  You don't need a man to validate that!!!!  You are phenominal women!!  You can choose to bottle up this faux pas or you can choose to educate all of the other women on this board!!!   Myself, I hope that you continue to educate us and continue to grow as women and continue to inspire and shock and awe us all!!
My love goes out to both of you!!!!!

I came back to OH to find like-minded souls, not perfect beings.  I've made mistakes, they just haven't been posted on the board.  Is there anyone out there that hasn't had to dust off their ass, choke back a tear, and move on?  We don't need to know anymore painful details...come on back and start a new day...

Baby, that was yesterday...

I agree with all the previous posts.  I'm sorry that this happened to you...been there, done that.  And even though it's easier said than done, start a new chapter and put this one behind you.  If we lost one or both of you, we would missing a huge piece of this board!  In the short time I've been here both of you have been very supportive, informative, and oh so funny!  Heck...when Kristen posted her beach pictures it motivated me to get the DH and stepkids up early that Saturday and head on down to OC for the day!

i would hate to lose anyone from these forums because i feel that everyone has a lot to share.  i just hope it's a lesson to everyone about what should and shouldn't be posted.

Here is My 2cents worth. I haven't posted in a couple of years, but I must say I read the board several times a day. I got such a kick out of  the posts by Kristen and Tia. I have been tempted many times to go to the "get togethers" that theses fine Ladies have, but I'm rather shy. I'm sure if anyone can get me out of my shyness these two ladies can. I by far means am not perfect, but then again who is. I've always said that the Next time you think you are perfect, try walking on water. But you can't do it. Please bring these ladies back to the board. I miss their wit, charm, and humor. With all the support they have given and still give they deserve some repect and support.
BRING THEM BACK!
Ladies if you are reading this post, I hope you are working through whatever is upsetting your lives. God Bless you both, and hurry back to posting!
Take Care

Cheryl -

Your 2 cents means the world to me!!  Thank you sooooo much!!  It was a huge horrible mistake on my part to ever get involved in something like that, and so totally unlike me!!

I'm doing well, (with a little help from my friends), at moving beyond all of this.

PLEASE come join us on the boards, and by all means, at our get-togethers.  In fact, we have one this weekend.  I'll post it under Girls Day Out if you're interested!!!  Trust me, I'll teach you how NOT to be shy!!!

Hugs,

Tia

I saw the post from Eric this morning, but I have no idea what happened since then.

However, I think it's pretty safe to say that no one here is perfect.  This is a huge journey. This board should be a place for support and guidance. It should not be a place of judgment. I think all of us can relate to being judged!!! It doesn't feel good, does it?  It does not belong here.

I hope everyone can see past their differences. I really enjoy coming to this board. As a pre-op, this site has been a wealth of information. It has also been entertaining, heart-warming, and supportive.

I will just say DITTO to Darla's post. Very well said, and much needed at least as of this morning.

Losing any poster I think is a shame, but losing friends like Tia and Kristin would just be heartbreaking for me. I hope that Kristin takes the time she needs, and rests and recoups emotionally and comes back with her crazy humor and great advice soon. I'm very relieved to see that Tia has posted today, and we haven't lost our gal.  Who could possibly imagine this board without her?

As of now, unless someone involved posts directly to me, I've said my peace about the matter. I just want our board family back, happy and healthy ASAP!

Thanks for this very thoughtful thread Darla! Some things just  need to be said.
Hugs!

Hijak----> Hi Kathy, 
I agree with what you've said.  Speaking of not wanting anyone to stop posting here, I would really like to see you posting more.  I really enjoy what you have to say and I think we all need your input to keep the balance here. You are an awesome woman. Hugs,
