YAY BILL!! People standing up for Chanel, that’s all great, but dont bash on other people just because their advice differs. Bill makes a really good point. Both columns have been one sided. “sapphire” even apologized for hurting her feelings, she wasn’t trying to, she is just trying to help Chanel better her writing. Yet people continued to bash her. Everyone on here is bashing everyone else just because opinions differ. And people that are saying Chanel’s advice isn’t “stellar” and “awe inspiring” are just trying to help her develop. Its called constructive criticism. Let’s end drama people.

I 100% agree with Bill. This blog got BEYOND out of hand especially when people began to bash others and move away from the topic. And im willing to bet that most people that posted unnecessary comments do not know the people involved or the entire situation. This blog is one definitly one sided….hopefully there will be a follow up post!

“Bill” We all have made it clear that Chanel and other now know who this situation is about, all parties included. Why not pay attention to previous comments and understand that. Her advice worked. The only reason she stated anything about her relationship is because others brought it into the situation. If the guy wanted to comment, I know he reads this page often. He chose not to. He chose to back off of it. But liek you said, youll feel pretty dumb without knowing all the facts.

The only true given is what was relayed to Chanel and what was written in the original post. There is no way to tell if any of the people who commented were actually any of the people involved. I suggest everyone just calms down.

I get it, some of you do not agree with the advice. I think we all get it.

First off I would like to make clear that I do not whatsoever agree with bashing a situation of which I do not know all the answers to. That being said everyone in this blog is no better then the person to whom is claimed to be cheating. I am including the person in charge of this blog because at no point did you ever consider the guys story. Any girl can bash a guy because they hate him or they think they are right. Are you all sure that he is asking for pictures and she is not just sending them? If she truly wanted him as a friend then why would she go beyond his back? It does seem that all of you decide to just bash him, without knowing anything about him.

Tisk Tisk Chanel, even quoting you: My situation is no where near this extremity. MY boyfriend has remained faithful — and to the ladies posting, ALL should know this unless you really don’t know anything about the situation — which you do not and are speaking out of line.

As an advice giver you should look at both sides and understand where each is coming from. It seems you did not. You jumped right on bashing him. I never once saw the guy on here defending himself, so I know that none of you know his side. Take your own advice and understand a situation before you judge. Personally if you are going to be one-sided, advice giving is not for you. This girl could clearly be making more then half of these things up to get all of you on her side. On the other hand he could be at fault. But since none of you, including me, know the whole story please kindly take the “essential advice” from Chanel and find out the full facts before giving advice.

Since I do not know the facts I will leave you all to do as you wish. My advice for this blog is “to know before you speck” because you all may feel pretty dumb when or if you ever find out the whole story.

It amazes me how quickly people jump to the negatives. I wish we would all see how helpful Chanel’s advice really was! “Just Another One” actually took the advice and its making progress. “Rebekah”‘s cousin and friends were involved enough to reach out and comment and supposedly Chanel even knows the people in the situation now that its out in the open and yet she was able to give advice to everyone. If my friend or family memeber was in this sitation id be pretty angry in my comments too. its a personal thing. why not actually read chanel’s response????? she touched on all points. are you guys not reading it and just jumping the gun to jump on her back? for those of you who are friends with her, why not look at her facebook and see the great feedback she has been gettin? people are appreciating her advice. advice does not have to be right. get off your high horses and critique it for the better, not to make drama.

Just a reminder to everyone. The comments are not for picking fights. Please stick to the topics at hand and leave any personal information you may (or may not) have, out of it.

I’m a firm believe in second chances, I’ve been cheated on as well in the past by just about every guy I’ve been with, and out of all of them only one kept it up. People need to understand that {Hey, would you kiss your mother with that mouth?} does happen…to everyone…situations get away from people and when it all comes down to it we are all human and we all make mistakes. Its not that someone was unfaithful because he/she wasn’t in love with the person they are with, most times it was a mistake. And most times mistakes like that are critical to a relationship. Other wise, how are you supposed to know if the love is real if it is never tested? I’m not saying that cheating on someone is fair, but this is the real world and nothing in life is fair. If you want something you have to fight for it to know that its worth it, but if you have the happily ever after never have to fight kinda relationship then its not as perfect as you think and to disagree makes you a naive person. “At the End of the day you either focus on what separates you or what keeps you together” -unknown “The truth is, everyone in your life is going to hurt you, what it comes down to is realizing which people in your life are worth hurting for” -Bob Marley
