NO, it's just life, is what it is... and we're all just trying to get through it.
Stacey isn't here looking for attention. She may be dramatic, but that's because she's an intensely emotional woman. She may be confused, but we're all confused, and why does that not entitle us to support or a little respect? She may like a little attention, but she doesn't desperately demand it like Luvbugz or April. She may be controlling, but she didn't come here trying to confirm her own approach to the situation.
And she is willing to put her story out here, and she knows that she may take a few hits in the process, and you have to respect that. Partly because it's rare, and partly because that sort of sharing should be what this place is all about, at least in an ideal world.
I think some of you have not read the whole thing carefully, and shame on you if that's the case and you insist on being flippant with your opinions. No matter what else is going on here, no matter who's right and who's wrong, no matter if it's "Springer-esque", no matter if you think you would never get into such a situation, no matter if you think S and/or Mr. S are being stupid, there are human beings in the balance here.
May you all be so lucky not to encounter this kind of confusion in your own lives. But some of you who think you're immune are going to wake up to a big ball of it some day.
And by the way, when you do, you're STILL welcome to bring it here... desperately hoping for some level of respect, and for some words that will help you work it all out.
