Lessons, lessons... I refuse to write and email, or even think about it.

Okay, so... If someone lies about you to someone else, is it not correct that technically, you should be able to lie about them to that same person? HAH!

*grins* Let me tell you a story
of a girl named Abby,
and the trials contained therein.

Someone who shall remain nameless, because they know who they are, told a lie about me that was inconsequential and usually I wouldn't care. Unfortunately, I'd also heard that this person told several other such lies to/about me, which I had shrugged off, uncaring. But... this last lie, now that was for pure self-benefit and had absolutely no basis in truth whereas the others might have, no matter how miniscule it was. So, in other words, it was this lie that finally broke me down and made me angry.

*smiles* Me being me, a perpetual equalizer, I decided it was time to give this nameless person a taste of their own medicine. So... I told a lie that was fortunately, based in truth (even if it was all in my own head), to a person who kept in touch with the nameless one, a person who I knew would pass the message on to the nameless One. And so it occurred. The message was passed, the Nameless One got it.

Now, the Nameless One is angry, as well they should be. Unfortunately, they think nothing of why this might have been done or the reasons that might ahve caused me to do such a nasty thing; I don't usually go around telling lies about people, no matter who they are, or how much I like/dislike them. It's just not my style. So... To this Nameless One, I give a message: Get mad, but understand why. And, if you still cannot forgive, then you are small-minded and not worth the aggravation of worrying about it.

On a more personal note... Yes, I do worry about this issue, as it might upset a friendship I value, but no, I will not be the brunt of lies and manipulation. So... Take it as you like, and call me when you have a settlement, or a decision- either way, I would like to be notified. Good night!
