(Original Air Date: 09/20/06) Have you ever wanted revenge on an ex-lover? How far would you go? First, look inside a legal battle that has been brewing all summer. Tasha, creator of the Web site DontDateHimGirl.com, says her site is a public forum for women to share their dating experiences and tell the "truth" about their exes. Todd says false information about him was posted on Tasha's site, and he thinks she should be liable for the negative posts. He has filed a lawsuit against her and two of the women who posted. When they face off for the first time, who does Dr. Phil think is right? Then, Ashley found out her boyfriend, Corey, had cheated on her three times during their 10-month relationship. Now, she says she wants to get revenge by exposing him to the world. So why did she recently call Corey and beg for sex? And, Corey comes clean with Ashley and tells her how he really feels. Talk about the show here.

Find out what happened on the show.

Get Real

I don't think Tasha Joseph should be responsible for anything that is posted on her website dontdatehimgirl.com because like she said she's NOT the author of  the things that are posted. I don't know what was posted about him but what I got from the show today was that the website is like any other website where you can post whatever you want. It just so happens that this website gives women who have been hurt the opportunity to share what happened to them and how they've been affected by a relationship gone bad. This should be a lesson for everyone.... have better moral values and treat others the way you want to be treated. Slezzy magazines can

print false things about celebrities and distribute them globally and not be sued, so why is Tasha Joseph being sued? Because a man who messed up wants to blame someone else.

Another PayBack, But why?

Regarding the story against Todd and Tasha, it is clearly that people truly love to hurt one another over the most painful thing, that a human beings will go through in life until they leave this earth.

 

Todd has been done wrong, and the only one that did it is the females who do not accept losing as the game, with the aide of having a immature female looking for that information. How can a person see good at night knowing that karma of helping gossip to move from one place to another is not good because when in time, which will come sooner than you think.

 

Dr. Phil was right when he said that how can we anyone really be honest if they are going to hide behind something and not give their name. I hope that each person that did this to him will be shared for the world to see.  We need to know who they are, so any man who wants to date them and feels that they are honest will think twice.

 

Females have fought for the right to be equal to men, so now we must hold them accountable as a man. I hope that they will learn that if they want to cry about not having a relationship, then a man can cry also.

 

I truly believe that Tasha must be held to being responsible for what she allows her site to have, remember when we started to have Rap music, we fought for it not to just be a right to say things, because regardless of having the right to do something does not mean we have to right to do it, with out thinking about who it can effect.

 

If that is so, then we must let the K.K.K. saying what they feel. Yes, this is beginning steps of hate, to take a person's name and putting dirt on it, with out proof.

 

I hope that you all will see that this is how crimes against lovers or two adults are started, just by telling someone one little word of pain and anger.

Revenge is best served cold

I sought and got "justice" on my ex for cheating. Unfortunately a judge threw me in jail for contempt.  For refusing to take down my website. www.drunkenmistress.com Lies were posted about me. Instead of suing the mistress for those lies. I posted my side of the story. At least my story was backed up with hard evidence. The Internet is open for everyone to use. Why didn't Todd do the same?

 

Anonymous posters are not cowards. Who’s to say that there won't be violence from outing a poster. I sure as Hell wouldn't want retaliation or confrontation.

 

How can Tasha be responsible for what other people do? If that were the case, 3rd parties would be taking the rap for murders and rapes. Just by criminals blaming it on others. "My wife pissed me off'". " My lawyer ripped me off". People must be responsible for their own actions.

 

Everyone has the right to vent, rant and voice their opinion. At least in America it is. It's called the 1st amendment, protected free speech.

 

I do not have to like what you say. Only respect it.

revenge of the exes

 

 

The question for the woman who owns the male bashing web site is not a question of legally being able to do it.  There is probably not a dispute there, but SHOULD you do it morally?  And if she thinks for one minute that anyone believes she does not make money from that site, then SHE needs psychiatric counseling.  I was truely amazed at the lack of compassion towards the poor guy who's life is really suffering because of all this.

Oh Yeah

Quote From: ya_ya2006

I think that Mr. Hollis needs to get over himself in trying to sue this lady. It is not like she posted the messages. Why should she have to take them down, he has to deal with the consequences he shouldn't have cheated or did whatever they said he did. If he hadn't have did that then no one wouldn't have anything to say about him. Furthermore, if they posted them on her site it is a guarantee that they would have posted them somewhere else because it is just a venue to vent. Also, he said that she is denying him to be happy when in reality he is denying himself from his own virtue by not letting it go. In America nothing is big news for to long this could have all been forgotten by now if he would have just let go of his pride and forgot about it.
I totally agree with you 100%. You weep what you sow and Todd must think about what he did and not be a brat by blaming someone else.

Revenge

Tasha didn't shut up long enough to even begin to hear anyone else's point of view.  Her life must be very empty to find pleasure and invest time in helping ruin people's reputation.  In life, what goes around, comes around.  We see all the time celebrities suing the tabloids for posting stories that are not true.  The tabloid is held responsible.  Tasha should be as well.  I hope this exposure will provide the opportunity for Todd to be seen by many women who are interested in getting to know him.  How it can ever be a good thing to expose people's faults (or alleged faults) is beyond me.  As Dr. Phil said--the best revenge is living good.

Revenge of the Exes

I totally understand the reason why Todd is upset. His name and character is being slandered. BUT, isnt he sewing the wrong person? He named the people who posted the lies about him in his very lawsuit, why not sew them? Why sew a woman who has no control over what these women (plural) are feeling? The only thing she is guilty of if having the website. Todds stupidity is superceding his case. To me, he has no case. Sew the women that have slandered him, not the woman who has a site.

Revenge

Quote From: karleen345

i JUST READ ABOUT THE COUPLE THAT WANTS REGENGE FROM ONE ANOTHER. i JUST WANT TO SAY THAT i HAVE BEEN MARRIED TWICE, THE FIRST MARRIAGE LASTED 13 YEARS AND WE HAD 4 CHILDREN TOGETHER. THE SECOND MARRIAGE LASTED 4 YEARS AND  THERE WE NO CHILDREN FROM THAT MARRIAGE.

 

ALL i HAVE TO SAY IS FORGET REVENGE, IT ISN'T WORTH IT!  YOU WILL RUEN YOUR HEALTH AND DAMAGE HOW YOUR CHILDREN THINK OF YOU. I CAN TELL YOU AFTER MY FIRST MARRIAGE THERE WERE MANY TIMES THAT MY EX AND HIS WIFE TORE ME APART TO MY CHILDREN BUT I WAS DETERMINED 1) THAT I WAS NOT GOING TO TALK THEIR FATHER DOWN TO MY CHILDREN AND 2) TO KEEP ANY IDEAS OF REVENGE TUCKED AWAY IN A PRIVATE PLACE IN MY BRAIN AND THEN WHEN I WAS LAYING IN BED I WOULD THINK OF THINGS I WOULD OR COULD DO TO GET REVENGE. HOWEVER, I DID NOT TAKE REVENGE, IT MADE ME FEEL BETTER JUST TO THINK ABOUT WHAT I COULD DO.  BESIDES THAT I HAVE HEARD THE BEST REVENGE IS LIVING WELL. NO MATTER WHO DOES OR SAYS WHAT ABOUT YOU.

 

IT'S NOT WORTH MINE/YOUR TIME TO ACTUALLY DO THINGS TO GET REVENGE ON YOUR SPOUSE, WHETHER YOU ARE MARRIED TO HIM, SEPERATED FROM HIM OR DIVORCED. WE ARE ADULTS AND REVENGE SHOULD NOT EVEN ENTER OUR MINDS!!

 

 

Karleen, I'm very glad that you didn't say any thing bad about your kids dad to them. They wiil find out that he and his wife are all wrong when they get older if they are young now. Your kids will also resent the fact that their dad has bad mouthed you for all these years.

 

I like you never said a bad word about my son's father to him. When my son went to live with him at the age of 13 he found out for himself what his father was like. When my son was about 15 my ex started to bad mouth me to my son. My son told him to stop right there as I never said any thing bad about him. My ex was very suprised to say the least. He then asked what I had said about him. My son told him that all I said was that we didn't get along. There was no way I was going to tell my son that his father cheated on me a number of times and wouldn't work.

I hope Todd sues her for everything!

How dare that horrible woman be allowed to get away with such unethical behavior simply for a buck!  She must not have a single friend on this entire earth!  This is not a matter of free speech at all.  If she were a newspaper editor, she would be sued for liable for printing that stuff in her newspaper.  If she has a mother, that mother must be so ashamed of her.  I hope that gentleman sues her for every last dime!  ( Oh,and doesn't she look like Martin Short?)

Tasha vs. Todd & Revenge

Whenever we feel cheated and taken for granted by someone else, it triggers us to experience self doubt, shatter our trust, and can lower our self-esteem. The "cheaters" were never worthy of us anyway. I'm sure when looking back you can see where the signs were that said DO NOT PROCEED. As painful as the experience is we can grow from it and choose not to have people in our lives without integrity. Anyone who cheats, lies or steels from you is obviously in a lot of pain as "hurting people, hurt people"  Don't take this pain in vain, learn from the experience and truly believe that KARMA does exsist, it is a universal law. Whatever comes back to them is going to be 10 fold to what you could ever conjure up. And besides, don't forget they have to look at themselves in the mirror everyday, knowing that they are still running and hiding from themselves and their truth. The time and energy spent obessessing about the last boyfriend can best be spent exploring why you made the choices you made. Loving yourself creates a healthier mind, a healthier mind makes better choices. God Bless...
