Infuriated

I know I said I was done talking about Emma, but I lied. Don't me wrong I'm still thrilled that she's not in my life, but I"m just so incensed. I just want to scream.

I had made a vow to ignore her, to not think about her, to not read her blog. I was doing okay. I mean, we had made her of too much importance, which only added to the problem. By paying any attention to what she says, we're giving it more importance than it deserves.

That said, I became aware of an entry in her blog that just made me furious. The things she was saying....

"Yeah, well all I can say to that is, I have never cheated which is more than what I can say for all of you. Megan, you fucking dumped and cheated somebody on Valentines Day, Michelle you slept with Tara's boyfriend and well Tara, you have a kid and an STD. Once a cheater, always a cheater girls, dont forget that."

First of all, what right does she have to air other peoples dirty laundry? None of those things had any thing to do with her. So what right does she have to throw them back at us? Especially, since she seems to have all her facts confused?

Weirdly enough, I'm more upset about what she has to say about my friends than about me. What can I say, I'm very protective of those I care about.

Megan did break up with Em on Valentine's Day, no secret there. But it was much more complicated than it sounds. Nothing is black and white, my freinds. Shades of grey, shades of grey! However, she was most definitly not cheating on him. I'm her best friend, I would have known.

Tara does not have an STD and never did. What she did have was some very real medical issues that turned into viscious rumors thanks to someone. As for the fact that she's a mom, what's there to be ashamed of about that? Lot's of young woman have children. This isn't the middle ages, it's not something to be ashamed of. I think Tara's blessed to have her beautiful little boy.

As for what she said about me. It's anicent history. Everyone involved has dealt with it and moved on. Though, I will say this. I did sleep with Chris, who is currently dating Tara, but it's more complicated than it sounds. He wasn't her boyfriend at the time, at least not that I was aware of.

What right did she have to bring things up and throw them in our faces? In one count a lie misked with a difficult decision. In the second an even more vicious lie mixed with something that one shouldn't be ashamed of at all. On the third, you have a mistake made to sound even worse than it was. Does she take joy in causing pain in others, not caring if she has to play with the truth to do so?

What kind of person is she and why did we let her into our lives in the first place?
