Henia, how's Algeria?

No you didn't, but obviously you are talking about one of MEriem's friends. I have noticed that you and Icey don't get along too well. So can you explain what you mean by Meriem has to be careful in choosing her friends? I think that makes it clear who you are talking about!

Sarah, Meriem herself stated :

I made a mistake by trusting people and caring about them and their well being.

She has acknowledged the situation. People are currently posting their thoughts on the situation and how to better it. You seem to be on the defensive and probing as to why people are referring to Icey. Why not? She was a big part of the issue.

I really wish this topic would be removed, but only the OP can do that.

I think it's strange since Icey wasn't even present yesterday during Shannon's power hour. I'm just wondering what VP meant is all... she doesn't have to answer if she doesn't want to, but I did ask her.

If you don't like the topic then I think you should ignore it if it offends you.

dont you think those in the ordeal are upset in their own way?

TURN THE PAGE.....

Icey outed something, and Shannon outed something. Both because secrets were told. Shannon's power hour had nothing to do with that fact.

Then why did Shannon make fun of and insult Icey yesterday?

Just a few thoughts...

I don't think Meriem meant anything by 'revealing secrets'. Sometimes, if there is a group of friends and two of them are worried about another, those two will discuss the other persons 'problem' trying to figure out what type of support they should offer the third as a collective. I honestly do not believe that Meriem could forsee that these two girls would turn so ugly towards each other and start backbiting on a public forum. If anything I would say perhaps Meriem should be more careful in selecting friends in the future.

for the red comment: That's actually called gossip

for the purple: I agree with sarah & hicham...it's preposterous that you say MERIEM should be more careful in selecting friends...that to me is insult to injury.....'not only are your secrets revealed, but it's your fault for me choosing you as a friend'

Laura, no offense, cos you know I luvs ya.....BUT

how in the world is Meriem the victim in all this? Put yourself in either one of these two women's shoes...you tell your FRIEND summat very personal, and you betray that confidence (for whatever reasons) and tell someone else....and then it winds up on the boards.

And Meriem's the victim?

I don't have any idea why either of them behaved the way they did recently.

I am not a member of either of their fan clubs... so don't tell me what is obvious or not.

I was offering a possible explanation as to what VP was stating. I was only inferencing. I do not think anyone is the victim here.

hahaha well when you say that MEriem needs to be more careful in choosing friends I think that implies that you were talking about one of her friends, and I think we all know that Icey and her are friends.

My opinion. I think Meriem try to do what she thought was best but just didn't work out that way. At least she was woman enough to come in and post and i am pretty sure she knew comments where going to be made. I agree this thread does need to be closed.

hmmm maybe I meant both of her friends... it is YOU who likes to call people out by name here.

LisaD... you have never discussed the well being of one of your friends or family members with another to try to figure out how you can help?

Wow, the last time I was here, there was only one page and the topic was still Henia. Do I see ppl here that were on the "The state of the ME/NA forum, a sad testament indeed" thread saying they didn't want to participate in such fracases anymore.

Just a reminder . . .

haha i don't think people can change overnight or in this case a few hours. These incidents are just too fresh in people's minds. Happened yesterday and last week and the week before etc.

Why oh why oh why do people insist on airing PRIVATE AND PERSONAL matters after MANY board (by this time more like BORED) members have expressed that it STOP.

I want to reiterate that this is an informational website and people do searches here for information. Whenever I try, all I get are post after post of this crud and it takes more time then I have to wade through to find useful information instead of this petty sh*t.
