Chesh is good people and I don't believe her friendship with mb has been one-sided.
They've been there for each other through a lot and I don't think it's surprising or out of the ordinary that she would defend her friend.
That is not to say, of course, that it's not possible that mb couldn't still be a catfish. After all, there were people who would count jlm among their friends.
I would like to clarify that *i* wasn't insinuating anything about chesh or MB. I was simply stating that I want to hear more about chesh's opinion, given their (apparent) close friendship.
Your post reads like an opposition to mine (likely unintended on your part). I just feel the need to clarify in case people are skimming!
It wasn't meant to be in opposition to your post. A few people mentioned Chesh.
I just wanted to say that I think all of us are prone to defending the people we dig and since she and mb are tight, I think she'd probably stay the course here with that. They've supported each other through a bunch of shit and that counts for a lot.
I don't know mb except through the board (and I do feel conflicted on this, obviously), but chesh is fucking awesome. She let me crash her private party with MWOS and sleep in her guest room and everything.
This whole saga is making my head spin. On one hand I feel for her, because I would have flipped shit if anyone had accused me of being a catfish. BUT. It would have been really easy to prove them wrong. Step one, don't pull a disappearing act...
It just makes me sick that people are so desperate for attention and drama that they fake shit like this. I wish there was a way to transfer some of my life drama and pain and grief and SHIT to these women who think they want that in their lives.
I think it's weird so many of you have talked to other posters on the phone. I mean who DOES that anymore?! I gtg with EB and IDo like, monthly and I've never spoken to them on the phone once. We text, like normal people.
So. In conclusion, if you've talked to someone on the phone, they're a catfish. Or you are. Hell, maybe both of you are.
Hey now. Sometimes people need someone to talk to.

I text with my ML bestie everyday. We have never met, and she refuses to talk to me on the phone, maybe SHE is a catfish, or a man. I almost had her once, but then something happened. Long texts get exhausting, we also FB message sometimes...weirdo!

I think I've only ever talked to one MLer on the phone and that was polka the day I found all the shit out about my husband. She was so sweet and so wonderful and helped so much. Even if she had this awkward weirdo calling her. <3
ETA: I have video chatted with a handful of people though! I can vouch they are at least real
