First of all, let me start out by saying you are, hands down, one of the nicest, funnest, funniest, most generous, lovely, and wonderful people I've ever encountered. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe the depth of emotion I feel about you. And I have friends all over the world. And enemies too, for that matter.
Secondly, as I don't know the details of the situation, I can offer that sometimes people with a generous nature can be taken advantage of. That's just human nature.
Thirdly, I also know that people who love deeply, like you do, can also be wounded deeply.
Fourthly, Sometimes confrontation is the only solution. It may be the only way to "get over it" and move on.
Fifthly. I love you dearly. I am teary eyed-thinking about who may have hurt your feelings so badly. I want names. I want addresses. I want to hurt them as they hurt you. I know that probably doesn't help, but if it makes you feel the tiniest bit better, well, good.
Sixthly. If you need me. I'm hear. If you want to talk, I will listen.
Oh, Wendi. I'm so sorry. I agree with everything that Peaches said (except the part about having friends & enemies all over the world. I'm not as traveled as she is, so mine are pretty much confined to the States.) Sometime bringing the issue up is the only way to put it to bed. I hope it works itself out soon for you.
I was so glad to see you posted..but I'm sorry that you are feeling down. Anyone who is your friend should want to make amends...unless they are just plain mean. Does that person know they offended you? I know, speaking from personal experience, that my mouth is my biggest problem and sometimes I didn't know that I offended someone. Go right to the source and discuss it. I like how Romans 12:18 puts it.. "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." If they don't want to make amends..it's their fault. Not yours. I hope the hurt goes away soon and you'll have peace. Hugs.liz

XOXO.
Bless you, Peaches. I love you. You made me feel much better.
I will call you later this afternoon.

Thanks Liz, Lori and KB. I appreciate your insight. You are all right. As uncomfortable as it is, I need to address it. Hugs to you all, w
