Don't. I know it's trite, but that's giving him/her exactly what he or she wanted. The fact that the person made the secret in the first place shows that the person derives some sick pleasure from upsetting you. Making a nasty post about it only makes everything worse.

*hugs Em*

Just remind yourself that they're sitting at their computer being jealous and you're rubbing elbows with the objects of their obsession.

Right, I know. That's why I won't, unless someone else brings it up. I'm not going to start my own thread going on about it.

I'm just so angry that they did that. It's pathetic to play coward like that.

I'm sad that they used such a cute picture of someone I love so much to hurt me.

I agree, not responding is the best way to go.

I'm going to have to force myself not to make some sort of upsetting subconscious connection to Raul, or something.

Too many people have tried to ruin him for me.

Yeah Em, def dont do it, that is what they want!

And thanks! I love the picture so much, tonight was just as good as tuesday (ok so Mimi missed a few notes but overall still rocked and she is only 18 and 3 months!)

I am a dork, I love this cast and the people in it (they are sweethearts!) that I am going to any show I can within 100 miles of me (maybe more)

I know I'm not really in the position to comment on this, but I never really interpreted that secret as one inspired by jealousy. I suppose it could have been, though.

Anyway, I'm probably just making the whole situation worse by commenting on it any more than I already have. I'm sorry that people are such jerks sometimes.

Em, just think about Cincinatti. No one can ruin that.

Posted: 2/11/06 at 1:19am

I agree with what everyone else has been saying.... it was a really nasty, meansprited thing to do, but acknowledging it to a greater extent might be just giving them what they want. Grrr....

I'm sorry you have to deal with it, though. And if you'd let something that petty ruin Raul for you, I think I'd cry.

I guess what bugs me is that even though I know just meeting them is amazing and makes people jealous, I try really hard not to be that person who is ungrateful or brags or makes people hate them.

I don't interpret it as being inspired by jealousy, either. Just general dislike.

I know it shouldn't bug me, but underneath the "I can take your BS" fighter, I'm too sensitive to let it slide COMPLETELY. I wish I could tell this person how ridiculous they are.

By the time I fly to Cincy, I'm sure I'll be over it.

SD, I think it was out of jealousy on some level, even if they don't want to admit it to themselves. I mean, why else would they be bothered enough by Em to make that?

Posted: 2/11/06 at 1:30am

I know anything I say won't really help the situation, but realistically, it's one person. Regardless of what the secret was actually inspired by, there are obviously far more people who respect you than dislike you. As cliche as it sounds, you really can't win 'em all.

It's nothing to really think about too much. One person out of hundreds has some probably inexplicable dislike for you. I'm sure there's at least one person on these boards who doesn't care for me, either.

SD, I think it was out of jealousy on some level, even if they don't want to admit it to themselves. I mean, why else would they be bothered enough by Em to make that?

It very well could have been. It just didn't strike me as something said out of jealousy the first time I read it -- like, I don't know, I think it would have been phrased differently -- maybe something along the lines of "you don't deserve to meet these people" with photos of Anthony, Adam, and Raul in the background. Sometimes people just harbor a dislike for someone that's really unexplainable. I'm not very good at explaining myself and as I said, it definitely could have been.

I'm sort of like "what did I do you to you?" you know? I always have this desire to like... get to the bottom of stuff.

I guess jealousy is a factor. Maybe. Somewhere.

I just found it. I'm sorry, em. Why are people so not nice sometimes?
We love you!

I don't think that by sharing your experiences with others you are "bragging" or being ungrateful. If anything, I (and many of us, I'm sure) appreciate the fact that you take the time to share your experiences, since some of us *sniffle* will probably never have the chance to experience anything like that with these amazing guys. Don't let the jealousy and unkindness of a select few keep you from loving these guys and wanting to tell others about it.

*kicks mean people at rentsecrets*

Posted: 2/11/06 at 1:38am

I understand, but I don't think it's anything you did per se. I can't imagine disliking you on the basis of anything you've said; however, I've been on boards and the like when one person just irks me for some unknown reason. It DEFINITELY doesn't give me the right to make lame and cowardly "secrets" about that person, but sometimes you just can't control how people view you, even if you're doing everything "right."

Again, I personally can't think of anything you've said or done that would make me dislike you or think you're an attention whore, but people can just be strange and interpret your comments strangely and it's obvious this person is in the minority.

On another note, I like your avatar. Adam looks intense. Heh.

don't worry about it so much, Emcee. just kno that you have bunches of people here who support you. :)

[Billboard Girl]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 1:40am

Maybe it's jealousy, maybe it's someone who got their ass handed to them on a silver platter by Em in an argument here and is still fuming about it, but whatever it is, they messed with the wrong person.

ETA: WORD, secondstar. I'm happy that someone as willing to share her experiences (and so eloquent and descriptive in writing about them) as Em is gets to do so much cool stuff.

I honestly think they are just jealous Em. Some people are stupid about things, like they think because you have met Anthony/Raul/Adam that you think you are better than everyone else (I know that's not true), when in reality they are just making assumptions. Now this person is jealous and is too immature to handle it in an adult way.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 1:42am

There's a lot that I don't post, and only tell to people I trust, too, BECAUSE posting it publicly will make it look like I'm bragging.

I feel like I had to have done something, but it's entirely possible that they just read me and get a bad vibe.

I like this avtar too. I felt funny having Raul right now.

Don't dwell on it, Em. It'll just make you crazy.
