I have not read page 7 yet but I will.

I have spent considerable time talking to people trying to figure out how to handle this.

I have good dirt on Lori that is public information. Yes, there are the accusations I could post about at the risk of getting the ban hammer, but I have public info that I could post that would call her integrity and credibility into question. What does posting that accomplish? Well, I burn her like she tried to burn me. I still don’t get my money and she goes about her life. The more I think about it, this is much bigger than $205.

To Lori:

You have a big problem you need to tackle. I know what it is and it seems 98% of GFY knows what it is. I have seen the photos from shows; in just a few short years you are a shell of your former self. Your thoughts are disconnected. Your finances are a mess (admitted by you). You dropped off the face of the earth and turned up in Hawaii with a purported breakdown. What did this is so painfully obvious, so please save any excuses that will make you look more ridiculous.

There is hope. You must seek help immediately. Not money help, not business help, but help for you. You need to fix you before you can fix anything else. Nothing will start going right for you until you address the underlying cause of all of your problems.

I used to have so much respect for you. Now I feel sorry for you.

It is obvious I am not getting the money because you do not have it to give. After talking to so many wonderful people that used to consider themselves your friend, I have come to the conclusion that you are on a crash course. Don’t worry about your business right now; if you fix yourself and prove to others that you are a changed person, you can rebuild it. Worry about you. You’re loving everything in your life that is destroying you and ignoring what is most important.

Please seek help Lori. I was in your shoes seven years ago (May 26th will be my 8 year anniversary) and needed the same help you need. If you don’t know where to turn, email me and I will tell you. There are ways to get the help needed to fix yourself without spending a single dollar … I had to do it myself.

Other people have wanted to tell you the same thing but the opportunity never knocked on the door. The opportunity is now. You’re game is up. Everyone knows what is going on with you. You may have lost the few supporters that were helping you hang on with this thread. If you go get help today and leave everything behind, they will cope. Just like everything was OK the first time you disappeared. I’d hope that anyone you have any dealings with right now would care more about your wellbeing then the work.

I have learned a lot that I will not post here. I’ve also thought back through our own relationship and your problems are now obvious based on my own experiences with you. I have decided that no matter what I post here couldn’t hurt you anymore than you are hurting yourself.

Perhaps you have enablers. Corey Haim, Health Ledger, Michael Jackson and countless others had enablers. Now they’re dead. Remember that enablers are not your friends. Any person you may have left in your personal life may be afraid to tell you what you need to hear. I am not.

I will still be requesting that you be banned for your posts full of accusations without a shred of proof. I will also be requesting that of those that are professionally connected to you and threw accusations without proof. What will requesting this accomplish? I hope you take it as another sign that you desperately need to get help.

SEEK HELP BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE.

Plenty good has come out of me starting this thread. Shelly, your offer was awesome and if you need help with your site, I am here for you. Dave, I knew where you were coming from when you originally posted. I’ve enjoyed emailing you and hope there are some opportunities going forward. You are a standup guy! Shelly is sweet, beautiful and a standup woman.

Then there is Wired Guy. He is getting his own thread to congratulate him on his anniversary and to thank him. Details of what he did will be in a new thread. After we talked I did some research on him (aka GFY search) and this isn’t the first time he’s done what he’s done. He’s a standup guy.

To everyone that came to my defense in this thread, thank you. To the people I’ve spoken to privately, I am thanking you publicly and your identity and our conversations shall remain private.

I halfway expect Lori to lash out and act out in response. Whatever she says or do will be OK with me if in the long run it ends up saving a life.
