Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

Speaking of rosebud's inconsistent statements, this is really bothersome. From Rosebud's 6/2023 entry: I have never been a cheater. I am someone who strives to be honest and to do what is right. But the me of my past was ripe for a manipulative offender who was busy using deceit…. and she got seduce...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

I would feel sad to discover rosebud is telling the truth and not getting support. But only as far as, the doubt I feel. There is nothing to tip me over to either side of the fence. Rosebud has less than zero credibility on this board. The one time she posted evidence, she quickly deleted it once s...

Re: Confused Missionary Numbers

From another source that has the full time and church service totals: According to the Church’s end-of-year statistics, the 2021 total of full-time teaching missions was 54,539, with an additional 36,639 service missionaries. Those numbers are up from the end of the previous, pandemic-period year of...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

I disagree. The feeling of discomfort for me is NOT caused by doubting or distrusting my opinions, but rather that I doubt or distrust Rosebud's unsubstantiated statements of fact. Repeating those accusations without ever providing support makes me uncomfortable because it is a vehicle she uses to,...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

Listen, if Rosebud were posting on a variety of topics, then NBD. It’s the one-note posters who spam the board occasionally like the few that have a megathread dedicated to them. If Rosebud were suddenly to start posting on whatever topic in whatever forum(s) then cool, she’s engaging with the inte...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

I think the combination of the gravity of the claims combined with the refusal to provide facts likely generates a feeling of discomfort for all of us. In a way, it functions like gaslighting. Maybe whatever our opinions are of Dehlin and the Open Stories Foundation are wildly wrong and Dehlin is S...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

Rosebud’s allegations in my opinion are the proof that she needs serious mental health help. She needs a therapist to work through this. We can dismiss her allegations because they obviously are coming from a mental health crisis, and we can keep recommending that she get the help she needs. Excell...

Re: It’s really easy if you stick with telling the truth

Perhaps this is the answer? Let Rosebud do her worst (which won't amount to anything really). I don't think she has any proof of anything and she has a history of spouting off to gain the attention of her long lost lover. What a couple they would have made! And she would have had access to all that...
