Dear Friends, Family and Colleagues,
Welcome to this awful site that allows lies to be posted...you have probably just read the nastiest things ever said about me, in addition to being posted on the internet!
It has taken me several years to finally post what I want to say but here goes:
Most of you already know what a jack @ss my ex-husband Eric is...no doubt about it. Whether you knew us when we were married or post divorce, he has remained the same heartless and cold individual. Eric (or someone very close to him) has defamed me through this nasty post and to this day will be nice to my face and turn around and continue the only behavior he knows and direct it towards me.
Sadly, I feel I'm regressing back to a teenager trying to defend my honor. Only this time it affects me for the rest of my life. Those of you who are my friend, co-worker, or other acquaintance know me on many different levels. I am an independent, hardworking person who adores my children, loves life and is a loyal employee dedicated to her career. The root of Eric's defamatory post is based on his accountability to pay child support and evade is financial obligations outright. Fortunately, I had a great legal representative who ensured that he would not slip through the LA District Atty. office unnoticed. There you have it! The honest to goodness truth!
All of the other nonsense about me, my mom, and my personal life is false and misrepresents me and my mother. While the defaming post IS about money, I have never "Sucked anyone dry"....actually thats quite funny if you think about it. But this just goes to show you the level of incompetence on the other side. I was simly trying to make sure that my kids never went without, and they NEVER DID! If you know me well, you know what I'm talking about.
I am, and always have been a straightforward and honest person who lives a good clean life. I have no malicious agenda and I'm certainly not looking for "my next victim". My kids are not traumatized in any form and I have been both Mother AND father to my boys.
Any adversity in my life has been confronted head on, and I seem to always prevail. Not to say that my life has been a bed of roses; just like everyone else, I've had my share of pain and from that I have gained the wisdom to take me to the left phase of life. I have had my share of poor choices and have suffered the consequences, but these experiences have made me a stronger individual, and for that I am grateful.
There was a time when I was VERY ASHAMED about this post. However, I've realized that it simply doesnt matter anymore... If you are a potential employer, go ahead and call me, do my background check, you will find that I am just like everyone else. If you are anyone else, feel free to tell me you saw this post and I'm happy to talk about it.
I'm a law abiding citizen who respects others and gives back in the form of whatever is needed at that time. I am a good person that posesses strength and values.
To the couple of people who have replied in my defense, thank you! Even you RF, I never expected that to come from you! And AMH, I love you honey...thank you for being an angel from a distance!
