[quote=Anonymous] I’m in a walking group with a bunch of women. The ages vary from mid-30s to one woman in her 70s, who is the organizer’s MIL. The MIL is high-maintenance, but everyone is willing to adjust sorry and take breaks for her. I am in my 40s and this is a nice break from my kid’s teenage drama. The organizer inadvertently forwarded an email to the entire group from her MIL asking to try a hike, but expressing concern whether I could keep up. I feel I have to walk slower for the lady who is complaining about me. When I walk alone, I go much faster, but I enjoy the companionship of the other women. I know the email was only forwarded to the group because the organizer’s MIL had attached a map of the hike. I know I am taking this personally, but how do I not take this personally? I’m worried this will affect how the other women see me. So far, I haven’t said anything to anyone except my husband. Any tips on handling this? [/quote]
