HELP?

[Replies: 2]
I have someone on MySpace who may or may not be saying things about me to others. In trying to settle a silly misunderstanding with this person, I made the mistake of asking someone that she knew which made her ANGRY. Now when I get online, I worry that my account is gone because I have complained so much about HER.

This all started a few years ago when I first got this computer.....and over some guy on a reality show (NOT Simon Cowell). She ran a group for him online and she even met him herself at a TV show taping and won an autographed script. She was even nice enough to send me a copy. I was happy that we had him in common so I even wrote to him about her. I now have a letter with HER name on it (say 'Hi" to Jeanette for me).Things went okay at first....then I guess the complications of my lupus got in the way and things went "south" from there. She had agreed to help me with a website for him but then changed her mind. I was disappointed, so I blogged about it and she saw it. I eventually cooled off and removed it but I guess after that, she thought I was a "little off the beam". A few misunderstandings and genuine apologies later...and I haven't been able to make things right with this "Jeanette" since. Am I supposed to throw my letter away? Am I supposed to lie that she has met this person, etc.?

Feeling quite intimidated now....not knowing how to handle this or just "ignoring" her when I know she is out there....SOMEWHERE....?

Hi Canwill, You mention that you're trying to "settle" a silly misunderstanding but sometimes that's just not possible if the other person isn't receptive for whatever reason (which is never easy online or off). I know it's hard, but it's probably best to move on - don't waste a minute more of your time or energy on a relationship that’s no longer fulfilling.

All the best,
Maureen

Got ANOTHER message of doom and gloom this morning. This one has threatened to report me for merely sending a "friends" request. I used to think I was a pretty good judge of character....now I don't know anymore. After I wrote back "Sorry", I updated my profile to only allow friends to send me messages.

TIRED of walking on egggshells
