OK so some of you didn't understand her satire; it doesn't mean that we should start bashing her and saying how you think her other posts are mean & rude, etc....This post turned into a scene from Mean Girls quickly. Arent we supposed to encourage each other? A simple, hey that wasn't cool would have sufficed if you felt offended by it.
From what I gathered she's most likely referring to the people who come on here & ask for advice, but blatantly do the opposite of what was advised & then they wonder why they don't receive the results they desire, and they do it more than once. she's not referring to those of us that get down here & there because we all have those moments, including her.

I think we all understood it, Satire by its very definition isn't a nice thing by the way!
and I think it was very unfair of you to say this turned into a scene from mean girls when I know from my perspective at least that I just don't think these types of threads do any good for the positivity on the forums!!
 

This is what I am referring to...

This is a horrible thing to do. I have read some of your posts and you come off very mean and cruel


In my opinion It is a Mean Girl thing to do if someone uses this post to attack Indigo on her other posts that the person didn't like. She could have addressed this post specifically, instead of telling her that her other posts can be mean & cruel as well. If she had a problem with the tone of her other posts, she could have privately messaged her to politely let her know; instead of putting it on blast for others to join in & agree.

It wasnt the best post, but indigo explained why she posted it & explained that she was making light of the situation by making fun of herself as well. Besides, Indigo has posted numerous other postings with good advice; that it's silly to dwell on this one

As a forum for adult women, I know we all expect a festival of different opinions and approaches. People take the time to reply to messages because they care and they are supporting each other, so that should never be questioned. And when I have been approached with grievances I have expressed that point, that in my opinion there is no one on this forum that lacks sincerity or is intentionally malicious.

But there is one courtesy everyone deserves and that is respect. There is no restriction on freedom of speech on here. However just consider your tone and whether the tone of your response correlates with the sincerity the message you are delivering.

Do not assume tough love or giving someone a wake up call means you have to be curt, dismissive, non sympathetic.

Just consider this is the only place where you can come too and say "hey I'm trying to get my guy back by infiltrating his thoughts mentally  and I'm a bit doubtful as to whether it's working"

And on the flip side members need to understand this forum is here because we do believe it works. We are here to collectively support and progress each other's confidence and power. Which means taking the advice given and putting it in to practice. If you are having a hard time ask "how do I work on my faith". Don't come on her for a pity party on why it's not working.

I am 49 years old so no I do not think that i know more about men nor do I think I can give more advice. Yes I stand by what I said and I'm not bashing Indigo just saying what I perceive. That some of the statements are hurtful and cruel. Now moving on from that when I was younger in my early twenties I camped out for three hours under a van new door to my boyfriends to catch him cheating. He was. Looking back I can't believe I did that dumb shit. I think I was under that van for two hours in the cold.

LMAO. Oh my gosh, we need a thread full of crazy ex boyfriend stories now.
I had an ex once report me missing after I didn't answer his calls for three days, living in a small town the whole police department showed up to my home AND school.
Talk about embarrassing.

Thanks Chica.  I really appreciate you very much but you don't need to defend me.  I am a
fifty-six year old woman.  I am currently on my second marriage.  The first time I was married
was when I was fifteen years old back in 1975.  That gives me forty-one years of experience
dealing with men.  If some of these ladies feel that they know more about men than me, that
they are better positioned to dispense advice, or that the things I post are "know it all" that is
fine with me. Their insults don't faze me. Honest.  And BTW I actually ran after a car once.  
Back in the day when I was a teenager.  The things we do when we are young.

Anyway, pain is pain and I get it.  But usually we look back and realize we're better off without the guy when we find someone better.  :-)  When women get to the point where they wonder why their man is such a dumbass to leave them then I am doing my job empowering them!!!

I hope that day comes when we can all look back and see the more silly side to what we went through before we knew about and applied PW in our lives.
There used to be a lot of tough love here when we still had ChaliceSnowFlower, Marz even CherieSymone would give it to us straight.. so im not sure what all the fuss is about over this.
C'mon, lets all put our big girl panties on and PW the heck out of our targets. Because Pu$$y.Whip. DOES.Work!!
Have a blessed Sunday all.
