I am sorry to introduce myself to you as I have. (On Married Girl's thread) I admire your position and advice and the way you pour your heart into helping others.

What I am actually struggling with in the Married Girl post is the way the discussion takes on a life of it's own. It has become a dialogue between other members not primarily to Married girl. But a debate about her and the merits of helping her.

I am aware of her checkered past here at Marriage Builders. I know. I just think it would be better for those who have tried and feel it is hopeless to bow out. Once they are emotionally involved, they can no longer be of assistance.

Someday, Someone might just get through to her. Or, they may not. Nonetheless, if some are still willing to reach out, I say let them, and let the others quit reading her posts.

I work with addicts on a regular basis. Most of them have used everyone in their world. They don't just use drugs, they use the ones they love. But, when they come to the place that they want and need help, God I pray that not everyone has given up on them. Sure they will take advantage of many good hearted people, but every now and then, you get to pull one out of that world.

I do appreciate you and your work here. It just seems that her thread gets hijacked, and MG is no longer really a part of it.

Sorry if I offended, you do good girl!

Thank you for understanding. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Okay, I feel like I can lay that thing to rest.
