Just a question to you, princesspumpkin..........if you are comfortable with the actions that you chose, why did you bother posting the thread..........and even more to the point, why would you ask a group of strangers on the internet what their opinions are in this matter?????

Maybe she was looking for some imput. I think that we all have come to the dis boards at some time or another looking for some unbiased imput. We might not like what we hear, but that's the way of it I guess. I have found some pretty good insights here in the past. Princesspumpkin wasn't asking what she 'should' do, but if maybe she overreacted. Not a big deal. We all think she waaaaaay overreacted. Just kidding. As far as all of us being strangers...well, only because we haven't met in person yet!! I choose to think of you all as friends I haven't met in person..not strangers. Well...some of us are stranger than others I guess.

Sorry, but you are wrong.
