When I was in college, we went for a 3-day class excursion, and a lot of photographs were taken. We returned home and the photographs were developed and we were sitting around in groups, looking at the photos, and a guy commented on my photo thus: "She looks like a corpse that has been floating in water for a long time." Well, I just kept quiet. I was suffering from depression at that time, and people's cruelty would just strike me dumb. I couldn't talk. I was not like what I am now.
Maybe that's why I hate photographs and cameras. I don't even own a camera.
Cheers and happy mylotting

You know, up until recently I cannot remember ever being insulted. Well, there was one time when the mother of a guy I was dating called me fat. I wasn't, and it didn't bother me. But lately, with the differing opinions in US presidential race, I've been called a moron and an idiot by those who like a candidate that I don't. That bugs me. If these people think that after the election is over we can be best buddies again, after having called me a moron, they can think otherwise. Sure, I forgive them...because my faith says I have to. But behaviors have consequences, and in this case the consequence will be that this moron will choose other friends.

Hmmm. Flat out insults do not concern me too much to be honest! I tend to give back as good as I get in most cases so I don't really take it to heart. I juts get fired up and verbally smack them straight back! What I DON'T like though are insults made when people do not even realize that they are doing it. These situations bother me because they have not intentionally insulted you and to snap back at them would be totally misunderstood.
One comment I had made towards me that really did get me on edge was at a time in my life where I had had a rough run and was living in a way that I had never lived before. I had little or no furniture, no car and was basically picking back up the pieces of my shattered life. I had a colleague say to me - "Seeing the way you live and the mistakes you made is incentive for me to do whatever it takes to NOT end up the same way"..... It may not sound like much but I was very frustrated by this comment as it was made several times. In the end I did fight back on it because I found it insulting that rather than focus on the fact that I had lost a lot but was still upbeat, positive and hopeful for the future, they chose to go the other way. Maybe rather than insulting it was insensitive..... I don't know; but I sure as heck didn't appreciate it!

Hi Jacquelane, I guess the worst was from someone that judged me before getting to know me and she had said to some one that she thought I was a gobby b*tch, but that was because I am very outspoken when things affect me deeply or I see any form of injustice but now having got to know me and what I am really like has apologised for ever thinking this. I am actually a very kind and caring person but she had judged on one epsiode that happened many years ago and I was sticking up for someone else at the time who deframed. Ellie :D
