My troll, BS radar is pinging like crazy with this post. It might very well be true, but we need to keep a really close eye on this one. Being in a Bishopric, with long hair and those questions, that was setting off my BS alarms too. We’ll see how they play it. I’ll have to get my BS meter checked, nothing was registering until you mentioned it. I always thought it was working good too… 
Maybe you just need to keep a lot of fresh BS around to power it. Ray and I produce far beyond our needs, you can have some if you want 😆 Far too generous! 😆 Based on my 5-year supply, not nearly generous enough. 😥 I’m sympathetic to his situation…and know from my ongoing situation…it is hard to express to others the long road one goes through to get to the point divorce is considered an option, when it goes against every teaching you have been given. Snipits of information or experiences are kind of out of context when shared with others…but I have also felt at times in my situation that I just want to be validated and not feel I’m going crazy, especially when things the bishop or counselors tell me sound wrong to me. I get the feeling he is venting and just wants to be validated, and may not understand the purpose of this forum is to work through issues, not vent and bash bishops. Others on the board can smell something is not right with the info we got.
Not sure if he is a troll…or just angry and will find he needs to look for ways of dealing honestly with his situation, or go over to some other website where he can just vent and be angry without really having to look internally.
Our group is a bit more demanding of the members
I want to take this as a personal coaching thing, and send him a PM, since I understand his situation pretty well, but try to explain to him the purpose of the forum in working through issues and sharing experiences, and see how he responds to that.
Is that ok with y’all?
I had that exact thought and came here to suggest it. I think his follow up replies were very reasonable and explained his story better. I don’t think the guy is a true toll — just venting a little. I think he’s OK. It just really wasn’t enough information in his first post for support (in the form of a too-vague introduction). Agreed
