[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who has embarrassingly enough been on both sides of this kind of thing I don’t understand how it could happen in a group of 40. Can you get more detail? Were there literally 40 people on this email chain? I just can’t fathom everyone totally turning their backs on you. It doesn’t make sense.[/quote]

No, there were only a handful of people on the chain. And I don't know if everyone in the group turned their backs on me. I just know that there was a group of people (like maybe 8 people) who didn't like me and were talking about me behind my back, and that some of my closest friends (specifically 3, but there were a few others as well) joined in and started doing it too. And I know it went on for a long time and that it was serious enough that people went to great lengths to keep it from me or to make sure I didn't know about certain things.

I have no idea what the other people in the group even know about it, beyond the fact that they obviously know I'm not around anymore and left Facebook. I had more casual friendships with them and some of them I barely knew at all beyond just being friendly at parties and stuff. When things went bad with the others, I lost communication with those folks because (1) I had no idea if they even liked me or not because of everything that happened, and (2) I didn't really know most of them well enough to reach out on my own, especially because it's not like I'd be reaching out to say "hey what's up let's hang out" at that point.[/quote]
