Stung


I received a mean email last night, which only proves the wisdom of my decision to cut this person out of my life. When someone tries so hard to hurt your feelings, it makes you see how toxic they really are. I think he measured his words very carefully, for maximum stinging power. 

I am usually a pretty good judge of character. Most of the time my first impressions are accurate. This one got past my radar... lesson learned - require references.

Sorry you were hurt! I have often wondered why we have a tendency to ignore our first impressions. Hugs!

There's a lot to be said for 'If you can't say anything good then shut the f*!* up" Shame people feel the need to reach out and hurt.
