Okay, we all know how close Hubby's ex and I are. Not at all. It's not a secret, and we have finally gotten to a point to just live our own lives and ignore the other.
But it hasn't always been that way. And today, when someone brought her up, and brought up a certain situation from our not-so-long-ago past, I got curious.
Lizz's brother passed away several months ago. In the heat of the situation, I attempted to reach out to her and her family, in a way that I now see wasn't appropriate. Unfortunately, I didn't see it that way then because I was too busy defending myself from the attacks that came from it. But I see it now. I digress.
The situation that was brought up today was that someone who claimed to be a friend of mine wrote a hate message on Lizz's blog. I didn't know about it before it happened, and I wasn't any more informed after I heard about it. But today, since it was brought to my attention, I wanted to know. I wanted to know why people were directing it toward me, and why I was being blamed for it.
I found out what they were talking about. And I want to know WHO THE HELL DID THAT? (Pardon my language). I am furious. I see exactly why there was so much uproar about it. It is one of the most hateful messages I have read. It is vulgar, it is insulting, it is hurtful, it is everything that would make me cry in a heartbeat.
To my blogging friends, let me tell you all this. Whoever did this, is not my friend. I will not claim them, and I will not defend them, and be friends with someone that acts and posts like that. I am ashamed to have my name and my blog associated with anything that hateful.
To the person that wrote that- How DARE you write something like that on her blog. Especially considering the situation she was going through at the time. How insensitive do you get? You are heartless and hateful. And don't even try to pull the Christian card on this one, because no Christian would speak or act like that. What right do you have to link your hateful post to MY BLOG and say you are a friend of mine! Who taught you to act like this toward people? What is WRONG with you?!
To Lizz, and her friends and family that had to read that, I am sorry. I am so sorry. There is no excuse for someone to treat you, or any member of your family with such disrespect.
