[quote=Anonymous]Anything is possible. I don't see why some people couldn't still experience the group as wonderful and supportive. Nevertheless, I wouldn't want anything to do with it.

Something similar happened to me in law school. A friend got very, very jealous when, without trying, I won an accolade she had been desperately chasing. She actively spread lies about me and destroyed my place in our friend group. Like with your group I'm sure some would say I left it, and some would say I was bullied out. It was very painful for me. And I know that some in that group knew full well she was lying (her lies were pretty obvious) and had done a horrible thing to me. And they stayed together in the group anyway; I'm sure they thought the group "wonderful and supportive" for them, even if toxic horribleness happened to me because one woman was jealous and spread lies to destroy my friendships. It's been years and not only does the memory of what one woman did to me make me angry, the memory of that friend group remaining intact with people who knew she was a total liar makes me angrier.
