In the summer of 2012, she got a job as an EFY nurse while she was finishing up her nursing degree. While there, she met a man who was the head counselor and had been working there for two or three years already. He was established there as a return-counselor and everybody loved him. They started talking and hanging out, and eventually dating. He seemed perfect to her. They developed a relationship, and eventually got married. During the honeymoon, he became a monster. She endured three months of abuse--sexual, mental, physical, psychological, and spiritual. He tried to ruin her life. He stole all of her money and lost it on immoral practices and services.<br /><br />After a lengthy divorce that basically ruined her life, she started a slow recovery process. He didn't flinch. He cleaned up his Facebook so that she never existed. He reapplied to be a counselor. He lied through the interview process. He got his old job back, and tried dating two more female counselors that next summer. We caught it because my cousin's counselor was one of them. My father called Church headquarters and got him fired. But speaking to the next two victims, neither of them had any idea whatsoever.<br /><br />Predators are very good at hiding themselves through social media. And they're disgusting men and women! And social media is the perfect platform to hide their real identities and prey on other people.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10498861806167000559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441758389977123332.post-842026357159647202016-03-09T09:57:44.660-07:002016-03-09T09:57:44.660-07:00Great post!

It makes me think of karate kid (newer version) and when their talking about "oo-gi-be-fan" <-- this is my best attempt at Chinese... it basically means that too much good stuff can be bad stuff. Which is exactly what is happening with our digital consumption. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01893843320499967730noreply@blogger.com
