[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 613560"] Lisa, nothing like that. No red flags and it wasn't a coincidence. She told me in a short, angry email after i apologized, that the fake post was really about me. but, in it was lots and lots of exaggerations. (She only admitted it was fake and about me. Her email response to me was short and angry. But, the exaggeration s in her original thread made her 'or her friend' justified in being so very upset) it was so odd, I had a hard time following it. I have some concerns about her spouse, but it was clear to me that she wanted that to be kept private and out of discussions. more like what D s t c said. After emailing often and speaking now and again, you would think you sort of know a person (after perhaps four or five years) and they would be comfortable enough with you to say "hey, I wish you wouldn't say that, it bugs me..." Or i'm sensitive about my age or whatever. I've had to do this with other adults, and yes, it is hard. If I don't do it, then I understand I have to accept it. If I can't accept it, then I understand I have to speak up. But, again, I realize this is very hard for some folks.
