I got friendly with a school mum a few years ago. Over the last few months she's started blanking me and I have no idea why. One minute she was super friendly, the next nothing. I know from the time I socialised with her that she could be quite bitchy and prone to falling out with people so I chose not to confront her and fuel the fire. But I've recently deleted her from social media because I don't want someone who clearly has such an issue with me seeing all we do as a family.
It got me thinking. Even though I'm quite sure I've done nothing wrong I still doubt myself. Why has someone suddenly taken against me? Is it my fault? Rather than put it down to them being arseholes I always tend to blame myself and worry about it.
I have a friend who honestly doesn't give one shit about what people think of her, she just gets on with life and seems really happy. I've always been a people pleaser and worry too much about other people's opinions. How can I change this about myself? If people are horrible I just wish it could be like water off a ducks back.
