[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again, I had coffee with another mother from DC's class whose opinion I value and trust and she wouldn't really say what others were saying about me, but confirmed that I seemed to be some sort of martyr.  she seemed uncomfortable talking about it and I don't want her to feel that way or in the middle, so I just changed the subject.  It really strikes me as strange, I have never had this happen in my life before, not saying I am super popular or perfect or even like able by any means.  I guess I need to just hold my head up high, but honestly it stings quite a bit.[/quote]

Wait, I don't understand - they think you're a "martyr," as in, you take on too much and put yourself out there as overtaxed, overburdened, but hanging in anyway? And that makes you not fun to hang out with? I can't imagine a reason everyone would band together and hate a "martyr."

Or did she actually mean you're some sort of sacrificial lamb, as in, you're taking the fall for something you didn't do? Which makes much more sense here, given the complete freeze you're seeing from all the other moms.

Martyrs might be annoying and self-righteous, but I can't imagine everyone hating you for it. Can you please clarify?[/quote]
