Hi Anita,

I dont want to do that. But thank you for replies youve given – I appreciate it and the time youve taken to reply and what youve said.

Hi Alessa, i dont know why youve written what youve posted. I think if you reread my OP, perhaps you may write something different?

Thanks so much for replying. I was interested to hear your explanation.

The thing I’ve noticed with it, is that other people might try to manipulate you by scrutinizing and disputing or misreporting what you say. Also, I was being honest and open with some people and then was gaslighted and lied about to others.

So what is a positive approach to dealing with those kinds of situation?
