If you are not willing to provide evidence of this conversation and the details of what was said than why did you even bring it up?

It was very upsetting because the "our story" he has created in his mind is false and has been used to harm me. I asked him to never personally contact me again and I expect him to follow this instruction.

I will get back to this after I take some time off.


For anyone looking at this with a sympathetic eye, let me just point out a coupla things here.

For all we know, if the above contact is true, the message could have been something like 'Listen lady, I see you're still obsessing over our story. Please get professional help.'

Secondly, if there is no "our story" then why does she persist in telling it over and over and over and over again?

Because it keeps people on the hook. That's why.

Obviously telling the story over and over has helped bring John to the table to discuss some things he wanted to hide. My understanding is quite a few things are starting to shift with Open Stories Foundation and rosebud is one of the catalysts to getting these changes done. So sorry if someone is forcing you to click these threads. For whatever reason you appear to be upset over this whole situation. Maybe get help so you can move on. Someone once posted that life is tough and the rest of the world has learned to deal with it...

Rosebud,

1. Was JD's text dealing with the Open Stories Foundation finance scandal, or your "emotional affair?"

2. Did he attempt to apologize, mend bridges and heal the bad feelings between the two of you?

Never mind. I'm done. You can post a screenshot of the conversation or not. I'm not going to play this game any longer.

What is the last date you had access to first hand knowledge of Open Stories Foundation finances, payments, and the internal processes governing such, not including what is publicly available?

Rosebud, in your OP you asked for questions and you've been back to this thread several times; , could you please respond to this question from this morning please?

Because he reads this board. I want him to know he can't harass me behind closed doors. If a woman or a man says, "Stop contacting me," and the instruction isn't followed, there are consequences.

Don't ever contact me again John. I shouldn't ever have to look at my phone and see another text from you.

What are the consequences?

You keep telling him to stop on a message board where you've already written posts directly to him?
