@outlander - if you don't mind me saying but those girls sound childish. You were right to tell them to grow the f*&% up! We are not in high school any longer with the whispering and the mind games. I hope you are coping ok though but good on you for standing up for yourself. I am sure if your mum's friend was a true friend, she would not let this all impact their friendship. And to be honest, if it has to be your Mum and her friend may start enquiring what is the real reason you both don't talk and who knows try to resolve this all.

It sounds like you have taken and are trying take additional steps to ignore and rid them off your life @outlander. You don't need people who are only going to bring you down. Hopefully with time it will get easier. It is always hard to ignore or move on when they are physically around as well.

Role modelling, even with a person who does not suffer from MI, can be really difficult @outlander. All you can do is try to make a conscientious effort if you want to. Just be polite and if say hi and bye and if they want to act like children and ignore you then it is all on them. You are trying. I know it is much easier said than done. Try your best not to think of what the next interaction is going to be like. Unfortunately what they say and do is out of your control, all you can control is what you will do and how you will react.

and then she gets the craps that no one helps aorund the house and shes not going to keep cleaning the house up all the friggin time unless we start to help by jsut doing the simple things like putting out washign on the washing pile or putting dishes into the sink!!
