It's terribly dishonest.
It's such a disgrace.
You aren't fooling anyone.
I know what you're thinking.

I was just sitting here watching TV and Oprah is on yet again. I cannot stand her and can't see why everyone idoliizes her so much.

How would you feel if you just found out a long time relationship which maybe you married or were living with turned out to be a phony. Like you didn't know who they really were, or found out they were merely using you for some...
