this is so tough..
I'm sorry that you got hurt by this person

thanks

I got a "personal" apology this morning from her.  It wasn't much different than the one on the other Mindsay ID I linked to.  My heart aches for you, blah blah blah, I truly cared for you that wasn't a lie, blah blah blah, I never meant to hurt anyone, blah blah blah....and it's like....after all this, how is anyone supposed to believe that she cared?  If she truly cared....*sigh*  I know Munchausen's is real and all, but this....this fucking hurts.  It hurts deep down to my core and I don't know how I'm supposed to trust again.  I know how you feel hon.  I'd tell you that you can trust me, but that seems kind of hollow after this revelation. 

I do trust you and that will never change.  I actually wondered about a few things recently but like dannimarie, I said nothing.

There have been times, to be honest, that I wondered too....things seemed too over the top, or it just didn't feel right, but I thought....she can't be lying because she'd have to get her brother and husband to lie too.  It never occurred to me that she was playing the role of all of them.

I don't know fully what's going on but that really sucks that someone has hurt you like this.
My family already feel as though people on the 'Say are untrustworthy. This is scary and I am now really happy that my blog is friends only. I've only spoken to one person in my network over the phone and she is who she says she is in her blogs....I'd be crushed if this happened to me and would probably cry all day and then delete my blog.

I'm sorry for your pain.
*hugs*

I tend to trust people more if they post photos of themselves and their family every so often, it's harder to "fake it" then.  I only visited her id once, I don't know if she ever posted photos.  And obviously there's trustworthy people who for whatever reason(s) don't post photos, it just makes it harder to tell if they're for real.

Even if it's true, for everything she said there was a person behind it, even if under a different name, you were connecting with somebody and that person was probably speaking from the heart, wanting to help and wishing you well. That won't ever change, for some things, what you see is what you get and names don't matter, afterall she must've had a reason to try in the first place.

I don't know why she did that, she must have some sort of reason in her mind (and maybe has issues causing it), dunno, but there is always a real person behind it, and what they say could well've meant just as much
Just please don't be angry, for both your sakes . If anything this shows stuff needs sorting out with her and we're closer now we have some truth

Regardless of the munchausen syndrome there is no excuse for her behavior.  I am bipolar and there is no excuse if I would do something like this.  I don't feel sorry for her.  Maybe it is because I am angry right now.  You are on my list.

Right that there is no excuse... I just want to get this sorted out
