Much ado....about nothing; that is MY opinion, LOL
It's ironic. I've always been so careful with my words (Living with verbal abuse for a lifetime), and counseling people who have been verbally abused.
Having been abused and counselling people who have been verbally abused, you are probably quite familiar with you, (or someone you counsel) being upset about something, or having something really hurt, opening up about it, and recieving a reaction like:
"Get over it" "Lighten up..I was joking " "Oh sh*t You're crying again, can't you just shut up for a minute "
Basically having the genuineness of your feelings dismissed by that person because they themselves didn't feel it was anything to be upset about, or didn't want to. If that happened to you, I wonder how it felt?
