Today I have had to endure someone attacking my character simply because she disagreed with my opinion. The manner in which this individual did this was particularly enfuriating to me. She didn't address me directly and respectfully state how she disagreed with me. No. She chose to make reference to my post and then insinuate that I was so wrong on everything that she could not take the time to correct all of my errors. Yet that is not what bothered me most. What broke the straw so to speak, was to have one of my so-called friends attack me on the post for defending myself against this individual's attack. She rushed to the defense of the other person despite our history on this site. It seemed to me that people who know me on here know that I always defend my fellow members and will certainly step up to defend myself. I never get aggressive but this post got to me because of the manner the member responded. Yes I called her bitchy, but does anyone have a synonym I could use instead of that word? What else can you call it when someone doesn't have the guts to talk to you but instead indirectly references you and attacks your character? If that is not a bitchy thing to do, I don't know what is.
So, as I have enough to deal with in my personal life and do not need anymore stress, I have decided DS is not the place for me to be anymore. I have abandoned another site I was a member of and am thinking of going back there. I wish my friends on here luck and healthy endeavors and know that if you ever need me I am just an email away. Feel free to email me at epi317@hotmail.com. Maybe someday I will come back or some tragedy will have me running back here for help. Who knows? Millie and slrow, I especially appreciate your support in this difficult situation. But I'm sick of the drama on this site. What are we supposed to do? Title our posts for grown ups only? It is just quite sickening. And for the friend who betrayed me, you know who you are, I hope you find yourself in the same position someday so that maybe you'll understand why I did what I did. Good luck to you. I'm out.

I had the same thing happen to me a few weeks ago but I refuse to let anyone take my support system from me. Wish you'd stay and just ignore it.

You know I agree with you and with tendonshurt, it seems sooner or later someone takes offense at something on here, use to be 'foul language'.
It would crack me up in the divorce group, some would come on and vent and use words that many of us use when we are upset and others would jump on them. My divorce was more sad then mad, so I didn't really relate to the venom (not that my ex hadn't hurt me terribly) but I understood their need to vent and couldn't believe that anyone would come along and say, "couldn't you stop referring to your ex as an f-ing a-hole, it really offends me", and I would sit there and laugh thinking, for all we know he was one. So let the people speak, and if you are offended then go read another post, don't try and dictate what we want to say....hang in there...this too shall pass!
