Hi Everyone,
Tomorrow Fem will have this board as read only. I wrote Fem and asked her to let me say my goodbye and have my closure to this place, which has been my home for seven years. Fem and I created this board together. This board has been my rock to fall back on and my friend and my life line so many times. Us managers are supposed to be so strong for you guys, and so many times I came here not quite sure knowing what to do or say myself. I came to understand what I had been through here and met many friends and sadly many people who were not my friends here. I have had a love and hate relationship here, but never ever did I doubt that I belonged here.
Fem created this board and asked me to manage it with her in 2002. I wasn't sure that I was capable to do something like this to manager a board. I didn't know if I was going to be capable to live a life for me and my boys. But I tredged on pushed by a need to help women understand that it was not their faults that they had encountered Narcissists and psychopaths. I needed them to know I guess in some way to help validate myself too that we were victims of very evil personality disordered men and women. I learned more here than I could by personal therapy.
And I became stronger and I became what I consider to be a good manager. I offered advice, warned against online dating and abuse symptoms and I did a good job. And what is the most cool thing is - is that I learned so much from being here. I am a better for it. I would not take back this experience for anything in the world. To say it's been one helluva ride would be the understatement!
I wish all of you the very best. Many of you never new it, but I was reading your stories and cheering you on all the time.
May all of you take care of yourself and move on and get out of your abusive relationships and never be abused again.
I wish you all the happiest of holidays and hope that I see you again around cyber space sometime.
Thanks Fem for allowing me to say my goodbye to our beloved home. MSN didn't always cooperate, but in the end we knew it would be there when we needed it.
Take care all and the best of luck to you,
WindSong/TJ/Tammy
