.... I had added a note on my Better Business Bureau complaint that the owner had ran after my ex-dance instructor. The BBB had added that to my complaint than removed it. Felt upset; I check the link to my complaint when I feel triggered. (Triggered because my new dance group had an event at the studio last week). Looked up who the contact for the business was; the owner! The woman that ran after my ex- dance instructor after I was hurt lied to me that she was the owner and also lied that another male dance instructor "had moved to Pennsylvania." I never even flirted with that guy or anything!!
This was incredibly bullying and ridiculous. I understand protecting yourself from someone "creepy," but my ex dance instructor is a male black belt. These people are monsters for publicly kicking my vagina from behind at the front door; their only concern is that I go away and don't bother them. I was stupid to think I could occasionally go to dance parties after he humiliated me by very publicly refusing to ever teach me to dance again; obviously, I was so creepy for leaning forward a little and making too much eye contact while learning the tango that I was a criminal. I was trying to learn to dance more appropriately and to have a better party. But the real reason I was kicked, three months after any interaction with my attacker? I talked to a female dance instructor at a bookstore. I said hi, she invited me to the showcase and I said bye and left. I can only think that she saw me with my son and thought maybe since I danced inappropriately and also had a child, that the next time I went to a dance party I should be taught a lesson or something.
I can sympathize with someone trying to run a business or feeling uncomfortable with a dance partner, but they went way too far. I realized how awful they were when I started meeting new dance teachers. It wasn't all my fault.

Mornings or Nights?*You can’t say both (or neither), or add stipulations, or make substitutions- just commit and pick one of the two choices!

No, it wasn't your fault, and their lies aren't about you, but about themselves, from what you've said. DOn't speculate on their reasons. They may have none. There may be absolutely no connection between Event X and Event Y, and the one thing I've learned is not to connect dots. You're freaked, I get that, but don't think they lied to you. They may have changed information with no thought of you, okay? I've had people send a private investibgator to knock on my door. My own genetic family did that to me. They were definitely doing tihngs with me absolutely in mind. INformation on BBB ... it can be outdated, updated, redacted, you name it. So, just breathe, okay? Breathe, and remember YOU ARE SAFE NOW. Big purrs to you:-)
Continued support, whichever way you take it, DS.
The founder of my book club died last week and mother is unraveling because of online dating and ongoing efforts to find a husband.
We don't get to forget, but we do get to heal.
Continued support while you find your way.
Woot! Delete the link! Excellent! Go go go! Someday, you might be able to "go back", but for now, let that wound keep healing:-)
