I’m your nerd host, Chris Hardwick
Nerdist is a place where we nerds come together and share the nerdery that we find. It's also my home to various elements of the Nerdist Empire. You might recognize me from TV. You don't realize that's where you know me from, but it is. You think you went to college with me or I look like your cousin's friend, but that is not the case. At one time or another you stumbled upon me on your moving picture box in such cerebral gems as MTV's "Singled Out" and Noam Chomsky's "Shipmates." and so much more...


Wow. The personal story was as personal as anything can me! What’s most interesting is, how relationships were like a short term band-aid for Mary Lynn’s sense of self, but it was in comedy and performing that she fould her inner strength. It doesn’t matter who you are or what you do, there are people who are like emotional vampires ready to bleed you dry, but it’s rare when someone attains enough self awareness to see what’s happening and make it stop, all on their own! Mary Lynn, did you have any friends who saw what was going on in this relationship and tried to get you to end it, or did you do it all on your own? Great Story!!!
Thank you for sharing. I really enjoyed this entry.
Thanks for sharing !!!:))))) we love your story Mary Lynn !!:)))
Mary Lynn,
I realized it was very difficult for you to tell your back story when I heard the raw, emotional tremor in your voice as you told it. I’m happy that you were able to get yourself out of such a manipulative situation and find true happiness with your husband and child. Thank you for sharing.
