Jack and I have exchanged wonderfully long and sweet letters. He is such a great guy. Justin and I email each other as do I and Amanda, Dana. I even emailed Ali just to give her some words of encouragement. You know guys, she is young and has so much to learn. And yes, she was horrible but hey, she was focused and her youth i think hurt her a lot. I think the fact that she lost first place really allowed her to gain some perspective on what she needs to learn and improve upon. She is funny and bright and i think with the right motivation she can be a great woman. From the emails we have exchanged she seems like an impressionable girl from a small town who is REALLY taking a lot of hate thrown at her. I just hope she can work through all that and become a better person...

Hey Jun, I heard you say once that you were going to use that money to buy a place in Manhattan. I'm going through the same process myself for the first time--ridiculous prices, endless hunting, hapless real estate agents, cranky co-op boards (groannnn)--after starting this process in August, I'm finally closing on something in Chelsea next week (I'm a Chelsea Boy now, better start hitting the gym). And there's no better investment than Manhattan real estate, right? So if you'd like any tips (or the name of a cheap yet prompt lawyer or a smart mortgage broker), feel free to drop a note in my member's folder or to send me an e-mail. When I entered this labyrinth, I soaked up all the advice that I could get and I'd be glad to give advice, if I can. Meanwhile, back on topic... um.... from BB3, Roddy and Marcellas remain friends. They're both in each others' Friendster.com circle! (For that matter, so are Dan and Wes from Boy Meets Boy.)

Thanks guys! Yeah, Ali has expressed that she is pretty much taking it from everywhere. It can't be easy. I mean, it was hard for me but I didn't care if I might get sh*t for writing here and there, i just really wanted to reach out. But I think it's harder for Ali because people have been so much harsher about her. I really hope she can move on... And Bastable...i sent you an email, thanks!

Jun, when you get your website up and running will you post it here for us, so we can visit? It was good to hear you are still hanging out with Bob he seems like a nice man, not to mention being easy on the eyes as well. Also, good luck with your search for a place in NYC. I think it's great of you to support Ali. It sounds as though she could really use your support right now. Especially since you can relate to her more than anyone because of your shared experiences. That wasn't very articulate but you know what i mean, right?

Well, Ali deserves what she gets. Now, when she's out of the house she wants people to forget what she said....well, some people can't. And I grew up near where she did so I know she is getting it hard. Sort of like you, Jun, relating to what you said about Robert's daughter? But then you live in NYC (not a small town). ROBERT, I HOPE THINGS ARE GOING GREAT FOR YOU!

I think that the reason Ali continues to upset people is because she refuses to acknowledge that she did anything wrong. Where Jun acknowledged and apologized for her actions, and proceeded to act in a dignified manner, Alison is still lashing out at people, even threatening lawsuits against anyone who says anything bad about her. (I've been reading a lot of posts on the Yahoo groups, and also at AlisonIrwin.net.) If she would just let it go and get on with life, I think others would also drop it.

Alison isn't serious about the "lawsuits". She just does that to get under the skin of a few people on the yahoo groups. Those few people harass her about every little thing she posts, and even viciously attack posters who post in support of Alison. It's a back and forth thing that shouldn't be taken seriously. I've noticed over the past couple of days that she is shrugging it off more, rather than responding to it. Constructive criticism is one thing (which I have seen her respond to calmly and nicely), but many of the things directed towards her are flat out heated attacks. That can't be easy to deal with and must put her on the defense. I imagine it would be hard not to respond to such things. She and Jun both have had their share of hate mail/posts, but Ali's has often been more extreme. Therefore her response has sometimes been extreme. Considering some of the things people have said towards her, I can't say I blame her. Alison and I have exchanged emails a few times and she has been nothing but nice, warm, welcoming, and kind. She has always thanked those who are kind towards her and expressed her appreciation for it. She hasn't had a problem with answering questions about her time in the house or just taking part in general chit chat. From sharing those emails with her, I find her to be a genuinely warm, nice, smart, and funny person who has perhaps learned a greater appreciation for her loved ones and life, more so now than before her BB experience. She has my continued support.

But if she was so worried about the negativity then why not apologize...not to us but to Robert and at least admit she's wrong? Why does she have to play tough girl and lash out at everyone...have you seen the email she wrote? It's horrible and just shows how much she doesn't care and that she doesn't think she did anything wrong. Sorry but she doesn't have my support and I hope she gets much needed therapy! Hey Jun!

Regarding the AllisonIrwin.net website. That site is well known to be a very negative site toward Allison. For all readers know, the posts from Allison might not even be from her. I'm going to have to agree with Elms. People may not have liked her on the show, but she is a person with feelings. Some people who post at the above website as well as the Yahoo group are just downright mean, cruel, and over the line, imo. They seem to be the ones who aren't letting it go, the Allison haters. Floridagirl, it is possible that she has apologized to Robert. But, she doesn't think it's important that strangers need to know. That it's between them, not the general public. PS. Elms, wave HI to Ally for me if you talk via email again.

Sigh...I think to say Ali has received hate is an understatement ...whatever negative stuff I got I would have to say Ali probably got tenfold. And I'l sure it just overwhelmed her so much and yes, because she is young, she chose to lash out in an effort to stop the hatemail. But we all know THAT'S only going to breed more hate! I realize Ali can't use the same excuses forever, but I truly do believe that her experiences in the BB house and moreso post-BB will help her to leave those excuses in the past and become a more grounded, and well-rounded person. The reason I reached out and made attempts to mend fences and make friends is because A) I care...but also because life has taught me that it's never a good thing to have enemies or bad will come your way. Surviving BB I thought would be enough for me and that I could move on. But I wanted to talk to people and make peace with people, even if they were total strangers, because one day I could be sitting next to you on a plane...or waiting on line with you at a store...and there never enough you can learn from people and their own experiences. Let's just hope that Ali will do this too .

All I'm saying is that she made a mistake...she should have said..."hey I was wrong" and that would have ended it. I don't care if she slept with the entire house...that's her issue...the only thing that bothers me is that she said something so horrible and feels that it was "OK" to do it? I'm sure she's going through a tough time but she brought it upon herself...I do pray that she finds the guts to admit what she did and then move on with her life...until she makes amends with the people she hurt she won't grow. I have 2 children and I hope that I bring them up better than that. Jun your such a beautiful person...and I'm so glad that I got to know you through Yahoo and this board

Wendo, You say you agree with Elms and say that Ali has feelings, right? I think the other houseguests (and a child of one of them who did nothing) have feelings also. She didn't seem to care when she was in the house about "their feelings" so why should people care about hers? She is supposedly an adult not a 6 or 7 year old that was innocent. JMO I agree with Floridagirl....I can be proud of the way I raised my children.

I see that we have not lost our feelings of superiority and judgemental attitudes here. We don't know Allison. We don't know how she feels. Maybe she has matured from her experiences. Perhaps she chooses to mend fences privately. She doesn't owe us a darn thing. I think that we suffer when we hold these negative grudges against people that 1) didn't do anything to us and 2) we really don't know. All this venom against Allison and/or Jun hurts us and our inner peace more than them.
