Well, that was condescending as fuck.

Thanks!

Also if the whole story isn't true, then I'm really sad for the handful of posters who came forward with personal anecdotes, who had endured something similar. I hope they still feel supported here.

I would volunteer, but I believe that would fall under hate crime legislation and all y'all heifers would end up in jail.

Soooo...sorry!

Unless we're talking ML gimp
Which begs the question, where is Zed in all of this?

Zed's dead, baby.

How old is JLM supposed to be?

I hadn't thought of this.

This is all just, ....yikes!

But the gifs are/were awesome.

I'm with missusbee on this one.

Nothing about jlm's situation has sat well with me, so I've tried to stay out of it as it's progressed. I am super, super glad now that I stayed right the fuck on the sidelines.

This. My feelings were mixed about the whole thing, so I kinda stayed back and watched every event that was posted. 8-D

Anyway, I can't believe I read 25 pages worth of awesomeness.

I always wondered how JLM had so much support but was in the situation she was in for so long.

A dad who spends like 30k a year paying for childcare... A sister that will take in her children as her own... A pretty decent job/salary based on the pictures of the house she bought recently...

And yet, she was married to that jackass and apparently forced to have his child against her will.

If she has a dad who can drop 30k like its nothing every year... why wasn't she asking for his help/money to get out of her abusive marriage??

It does not add up.

Do you not understand how abusive relationships work? It has nothing to do with money most of the time and a lot to do with fear and control.

He controlled and abused her and then just signed over the rights to his kids and said see ya I'm out of here?

Yes, I understand how it happens. I do not however understand how that ^ happens.

I would not have doubted her if it were not for the follow ups of craziness.

[bluetopaz]

I can't believe how many times I've checked back in on this thread today.

[poppyseed]

Mama, I have always liked you, but I think you need to realize that you don't really know jlm either.

[flex]

aeg, I love your siggy. Your children are absolutely adorable.

Okay I agree
I barely remember poppy in all of those threads. I also have no problem with people defending their friends. She certainly wasn't a zealous.

I think jlm gets off on all of this.

Like she just leaves dramatic shit in a post then disappears and basks in all of us talking about her.

That's pretty damn close to what my father did. My very first memory is watching him choke my mom at the foot of the stairs while she yelled at me to run to my room. My grandpa came over to their house unexpectedly when she was pregnant with me and found her 8 months pregnant and scrubbing the grout on the bathroom floor with a toothbrush. But when she finally got up the nerve to divorce him, he not only failed to pay child support on a regular basis but half the time he didn't bother to show up to pick me or my brother up at the babysitters on Wednesday evenings for dinner, or dropped us off early on his weekend. In fact, the only time he showed an marked interest in us for years was when we wouldn't go over there for some reason (like having the damn chicken pox), then he'd threaten to take my mom to court for "keeping his kids from him".

So yeah, that does happen. Either they use the children has a tool for control, or they view the children as nothing more than obstacles and when they are no longer needed (like when the mother divorces him and he can no longer have that level of control over her) they become obsolete.

All I'll say is that I agree with this. That is what happened with my mom and dad. And my grandfather - who did not step in to help her escape her marriage, even after she had me, under the idea that people don't get divorced - ultimately did step up with cash once she left my dad once and for all. My mom was an elementary school teacher making no money in a Catholic school and we had a big house, a nice car and plenty of cash on hand from my grandfather. Those things do happen. Everything else? Who knows.

I just wprry about my info. I try to stay somewhat guarded but I want to help when I can. I will do it in the future because I usually believe most of what I see here even after 7 or so years.

This is what I am thinking... from seeing some of her old posts on tn.

[cleo29]

I can't wade through anymore pages. I just want to say that I had a friend who was/is in an abusive relationship and who started lying to me about crap and then cut me off. I hunted down a way to get in touch with her best friend since childhood simply to say I am really worried, this is not like the person I met, can you just tell me that she is ok.

She emailed me back and eventually we spoke on the phone. I at least learned that she was ok, but I also learned some of the lies had told me, etc. My long-winded point is that it is not that far-fetched and I think when there is already concern there, a person might be more willing to speak to a perfect stranger.

I had to leave to go grocery shopping and my shit is just sitting on the counter while I get caught up.

If anything could have overshadowed my new job post, I'm glad this is it.

WRT my post earlier, I've been calling shenanigans on jlm for a LOOOOONG time and I wanted to point out that I had witnesses to this effect, lol.

This is pretty much what I said in the last epic jlm thread before Mama bitchslapped me for the thought.
