Oh my..that does not sound fair at all...communication is so important and if there is a misunderstanding..which results in such hatefull language directed at you..how can you approach someone that inflicts such pain without risk of being further injured..I hope that you take care of your own needs..and that you can overcome some obviously misdirected anger, sometimes though, if its due to a misunderstanding..clarifying your comments or just expressing your hurt at what they have said in response may make you feel better and if they are not gracious enough to understand that stance and apologize..then let it be..knowing that you have done your best to be true to yourself..supportive thoughts coming your way Rhapsody....gentle hugs..p.s. U know my wicked sense of humor ..there are times though when the taste of my foot lingers in my mouth for just a little while..smile..take care Dear Rhapsody...
