Ah hugs to you Ashley. Your true friends know who you are and what you stand for and never feel like you have to apologize for that. That is SO rude of them, you are amazing to get involved and offer your input. xo
I am sorry those women said not so nice things about you, especially in a mass e-mail. If that is how they handle things I wouldn't want to be part of that organization myself. Just think, now you can find something even better to get involved with!
Wow, that's so harsh! Some people are just mean and ugly, and some people just can't be pleased. I know it's hard. :( Just keep your head up knowing that you haven't done anything wrong. It's such a shame that people like that can ruin something that should have been a positive experience!
That sucks! I know how you feel though. There was a group of 6 girls which I was part of, throughout university. We were close friends, told each other everything. We even went on a grad trip together. I found at the end of the year, when everyone was leaving and I was left out of a surprise goodbye party for a friend (and didn't receive a goodbye party of my own) that 2 of these girls had only talked to me because of another friend, and that they had disliked me the whole time.
What a stab in the back. I cut them right out of my life and no longer speak to them. Unfortunately, its not quite the same situation :(
I would try to rise above the situation, and when you meet them be cordial and polite.
Howdy, somehow I just came across your blog. But I can sure sympathize. Like you said now you know the truth, and you know these women are not ones that will have your back. In my experience women like this have the pack mentality and you were the chosen victim. That usually comes from their own insecurity, jealousy and downright meanness. They don't have the integrity that you do to be upfront, open and honest. It truely is their loss. I don't think it was a mistake you were included in a mass email, that is how low down they are for their attack. The thing is once your gone they will chose another as their focus, know what I mean? I say goodbye and good ridance. These things seem to go in cycles until the alpha culprit is found out, only so many lies can be told before the ones who were sucked in realize how stupid they were to blindly follow. And once they come to their senses the smart ones will come back around and realize how foolish they were. But you will be smarter and not so blind next time. In reality this experience has matured you much further than they will ever be, I know, right now your hurt and shocked to see that, but your much enlightened by this. You gave and worked out of your hearts desire and support for your husband and the community, the labor of love thingy. You can still be apart of the fire community, just stay away from the pack. One day you'll be the wise ole wolf and you will have earned the right to choose your own pack and growl whenever you want to! Peace and Blessings! You go girl!
