[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's interesting that they keep trying to recruit you. These women always HATE me and I don't know why.
I volunteered at an event being run by one of these. At the end I approached her and said "Kitchens all clean. You did a great job organizing the craft fair" and she replied "Thank you SO much. Compliments from YOU are what make it all worthwhile" as her minions giggled. I spent the next week wracking my brain trying to think of how I might have offended her.  [/quote]

OP again. Sometimes they do hate me, too. I actually think I used to get that response more, just by being myself. And then their hate would make me feel awful -- like you, I'd sit around trying to figure out what I'd done and how to fix it. I then overcorrected by becoming more passive around them, and then the passivity makes them want to take me under their wing. I just want to be left alone. I feel like you can't win with someone like this unless you are willing to play a specific role in their life (rival or minion) and I don't want either.

I have some good friends who are not like this but just don't see them enough. My work, kid's school, and neighborhood all have women like this and it feels stressful.[/quote]
