Josie, my friend,
Am I imagining things or have the majority of your posts become negative? I can't help but be worried about you, especially since I take it as part of my job here to watch after and "take care" of my members as best I can.
So for that reason, I am worried about you. Is everything okay with you outside of Crusherville?
I know you are a loyal and constant member of the Crush sites. And you have been for a long time. You are one of our backbone members, a valuable member. That, too, is why I am so concerned about you.
I used a lot of the Memorial weekend to do a research project. Want to know what I was researching? Because I noticed something unusual happening, and because she is a good friend of mine, I researched my friend, Josie's posts over a long, long time period --years.
And I found out what was troubling me. Sometimes we don't see things about ourselves that others can see. I suspect that is true in your case.
Josie, your posts have changed sooooo much recently, especially the last 6 months. They are becoming more and more negative and almost bitter. And I KNOW you are NOT a bitter old woman! Your posts used to be so full of fun and laughter and that ws our Josie.
I don't believe you are yourself lately and am worried that something big is wrong behind it that you have not shared with anybody or maybe haven't even realized yourself. So I worry.
The reason I am making this a public post instead of a PM is because I am of the belief that several of your other friends and/or sitemates have noticed it too and are worried about you too. But everybody is just keeping silent and worrying.
Well, my friend, you know me. I have to try to change things or I won't be able to live with myself.
I miss the old Josie who used to write funny and thanking posts when she won something! Now when you win something, you seem still not to be happy, or to be bitter because somebody else won more often.
That is NOT our Josie who likes to see her sitemates win too.
And I miss terribly our real Josie.
So will you please give it some long thought, think about what our forum means to you, what you mean to us, and let us help you gain back your old cheerfulness?
Please. We all care so much about you.
Your friend,
RoyalCrush

Royal, I really wanted to mind my own business on this topic but, you put it out there so I must post my feelings on this. I know your intentions are good and you care about Josie but I think this should of been a private matter between you and Josie. to be honest with you if you would of posted this about me for everyone to read I would be very upset. I would of appreciated if you would of sent me a PM or email or even calling me on the phone if you cared about me, and my well being. please don't take this the wrong way I just had to let you know how I feel. your Friend, Rhonda.

Dear Friend Rhonda ~
Thank you for for being so honest and forthcoming. I can easily respect anyone for that.
I am glad you do understand that Josie means a lot to me and I am genuinely concerned about her. Did you know her before when she kept us laughing or have you known her only this year?
I explained my reason for making it a post and I think Josie can appreciate and understand it, because she is, after all, an undercover extremely intelligent lady. My reason was to gather her friends around her to try to help her, sort of like an intervention.
I may, I admit, have made a terrible mistake in my thinking and hopes. But you must understand my truly loving intentions.
My main concern is what JOSIE thinks and how JOSIE takes it. I think she will understand. If not, I may never forgive myself.
I am still hoping her friends will try to draw her out and see if she needs us. We will just have to wait and see, I guess.
Again, thank you for your not beating around the bush. And thank you for responding. It shows that you, too, care about Josie, and so one of my hopes you have provided without knowing it.
Also,I am happy to tell you that Josie and I PM and talk privately quite often and are the best of friends.
Praying for good results,
RoyalCrush
