[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She was rude and you were totally in the right.

But I can SO relate to what you are feeling right now. I am a friendly person and often extend invites etc to new people, so have experienced a fair amount of rejection. It stings even when its subtle, but I try to ignore and march on. Sometimes people even end up being friends with me later.

I try to remember its not me, sometimes it’s just them, and just keep being my same, friendly self. Some people are ready for me and some aren’t. [/quote]

Oh - and same PP back. When you see her again, be cheerful and friendly without over extending yourself. She may not have meant it like the sick burn it sounded like - so I’d play a little dumb to her turn down. It’s not that I would invite her again, etc. But I’d just try to pretend like it didn’t happen and do business as normal, minus any extra friendship extensions. That’s what I do and sometimes people come around in different ways. Not like I am needing everyone to come around to me - but I find it extra work to have enemies, so even if I’ve been “wronged” I really just try to ignore the attempt and be friendly anyway. It works out better in the end especially if circles collide later.[/quote]
