I am sorry that everyone is getting upset and offended and defensive.

We all have the right to post what we want - as long as it is within the guidelines of this site.

We are all responsible for our own privacy - sending out too much personal info in a thread is dangerous, it's like standing in front of a large gathering and spilling your guts. It's the nature of the action and reaction. I think this incident was just a reminder for everyone and perhaps that is why it happened.

W_I: no, you did not ask for it. You did nothing wrong. Your trust was broken and exploited for who knows what reason. Perhaps it you knew that, you could make more sense of it and put it to rest in your mind. No one likes to be betrayed, especially when we have personal issues or experiences with it. I know. I've been there too many times and now don't trust.

But, I want everyone to feel better, and perhaps in times, we all will. I don't want people to get upset with each other and defensive and offended.

Can't we all just be supportive friends again? Please?
