*takes a deep breath* A while ago, there was a poster on here who said she had been raped. Because I knew her from high school, and considered her my friend, I asked people not to make judgements. I also maintained that she had truthfully been raped.

I guess it's time to put my foot in my mouth. It was a lie. Unfortunately, I fell for it. She enlisted friends of hers, people she worked with, and their connections to concoct this story. Why? Because she wanted attention.

So, that's why I'm apologizing. I should have looked into it, and not simply believed her. As it was, a wonderful man got his heart broken, and trampled on because she wanted to feel important.

I'm sorry, and I was wrong.
 
No worries you can only go on available info, the only person who need to feel shame is your "X" friend.
 
Well, we all get fooled sometimes.
Just gotta be able to read people a little better
 
I agree with DCL and.......

Really? Weird. I don't recal this. Was this while I was gone? Strange what friends can do.

What kind of "friend" would do this. That's a very serious thing. Not to be played with for just some attention IMHO.

You can only go by what you are told. The deceit is thiers.

As Outsider said, you were duped as well. You weren't part of the story...the lie. You were an innocen bystander like the rest of us here. Had your "friend" ever suffered the pain of rape, I highly doubt she'd make up stories like this just for attention. Rape is no joing matter. :( Thank you, though, for being bold enough to come forward with the truth. It takes a big person to be willing to do that.
 
We are only as good as the information in front of us.

No sweat. You were schmoozed too...........why wouldn't you believe someone who is your *friend*?

Believe you me, I have had stories told to me by friends just for ***attention***, maybe nothing like rape but just the same looking for attention. Sheesh what some people will do.........sorry for your friends flaw and that it hurt you so.

We still like ya. :)

We know you are, Unregistered. You don't have to tell us.

Thank you, Laurel.

"unregistered?" Lots of people know who you are, and now they know what you've done. I'm only sorry that I actually stood up for you, and even more sorry that Dustin stuck up for you. How could you do that to him?! :mad:
 
Licci~Nicci don't feel bad about it at all. You know the saying: To err is human.

Nobody is perfect, but it sure takes a certain person to admit that you were wrong!
 
Man!
I never know *anything* that goes on around here!
Not the good stuff, not the dirt... i guess i'm not part of the in-crowd.


But i do know this: it takes a big person to apologize in public for something not even her fault.
 
Thanks guys. I just... it bugs the hell out of me that I could be so gullible!

*hopes nobody minds that she rants a bit* Can you believe she fricken called me, and bitched me out for posting this?! Of all the childish, stupid,....

*deep breath* Sorry, again. I can't believe I ever looked up to her. :(
 
Just one thing, please....

Could you merely tell us if it's someone who still posts here, or have they withdrawn?

This is a prime example of internet interpreted as REAL LIFE.

Get a grip people.
 
She has withdrawn, Shadowsource. Tn, this board is meant to post your views, and everything else. There are posts by everyone else bitching about other shit. Nicci has a right to vent. If you didn't mean it against her, then I apologize for spouting.

Nicci. I appreciate the fact that you're sticking up for me, but the apology shouldn't come from you. It should come directly from me. What Heather did was wrong, and my defense of her was ill-placed.

Members of the Board, I am truly sorry for what Heather did. Not only did she betray a trust, but she hurt those people who have actually had the horrific experience she claimed. I am very very sorry to the true victims.

Nicci, please let it go. I'm trying to. Okay?

I'm the last person

to tell people what they should and shouldn't post. That position is reserved for another Lit member that I'll leave unnamed.

Anyway, I meant that the person who called Licci to bitch her out was a little short on reality.

that's all.
 
I'm sorry I exploded at you, TN. It really wasn't my intent. I just wanted to make sure Nicci wasn't getting... attacked.

I'm just a bit touchy lately, I guess... Sorry again.

-D
 
For those who are wondering, the ex-member's screenname starts with an "E"
 
I thought it was "Heather"? How does "Heather" start with an "E"? Is the name a secret? What's with the words "nonflammable", "unflammable" and "inflammable"? Aren't they the same thing? Help me, Rhonda. Help, help me, Rhonda.
