I didn't post at the time, but what aroused suspicions for me in the very first post from furiousintexas was when they claimed that James' ex-girlfriend said (in a telephone conversation) that she would try to pay back James' debt when she got a job. That just doesn't make any sense. No ex-girlfriend in the world is going to offer to pay back their ex-boyfriend's debt that had nothing to do with them. No ex-wife would ever make that offer either. And it is even more absurd when said ex hates James' guts. No way she is going to say I will pay back a debt that isn't mine, for an ex I hate with a passion.
Trying to make James' ex sound like a saint does makes sense if the poster, Furiousintexas, is actually the ex herself. While trying to slander your ex, you might as well slip in a couple of things to try to make yourself seem like a saint at the same time...
