BellaOnline Forums Beauty and Self Life Coaching Leaving

There is a person answering my posts nastily. I value my peace of mind and my self esteem. I am leaving the forum today. Good bye.

Haridas, don't let any person make you leave, when we post were up to everyones opinion, the good the bad and the ugly, i have been told in the past to just about Get a Life, but thats o.k. its only that persons opinion, ya people can be rude but there are more nice people here than bad, stick around many of us enjoy your post, have a Merry Christmas

Haridas,

I'm sorry to hear that this person's posts have been hurting you. If you know what they are saying is not true for you, then I invite you to choose not to take the negative words into your heart.

You're on here a lot and obviously you've enjoyed being here or you wouldn't post so much. Why give that person permission to take away something you love?

You have great value and even if someone misunderstands you, it does not change your value.

What would it take to strengthen your heart against the negativity so you can still allow the encouraging words from others on Bella to really lift you up?

Remember, the voice of one is not necessarily the voice of the crowd. (I heard that quote recently on a teleseminar)

If you still choose to go, I honour your boundaries in not letting toxic situations to go unchecked in your life. I wish you all the best!

This is such a shame that this happened!

I get so angry when I hear people say to people like Haridas who are victims of online bullying to just go offline! Telling victims to stop what they love is not the way to deal with it! It is not the victims who should be punished!

Haridas -- please stay. Just don't read those posts. This happened to me several years ago on another site. After being ignored for awhile, they went away. Just POOF!

I was attacked many times especially when I was on Care2 (left that place because the owners do not care about their members not because of being attacked). I dealt with it a few different ways depending on how I was being attacked. Often ignoring will work since most of these people are just trolls.
