Loyalty: It's a Girl's Best Friend...Well, That & Wine

So isn't the internet awesome?! My favorite part of the internet is that it knows literally everything. And you can't hide a damn thing, well nothing you put on the internet anyway. So, there's this girl...isn't that how all the best stories start?! Anyway, she and I were internet friendly and often had online conversations. We were both members of a couple groups on the internet. There was one group that remained secret, non-existent, a "Fight Club" of sorts. It was a place that members could say anything they wanted to say about anyone. Those places pretty much don't exist anywhere anymore...Well, the girl was removed from the group because she couldn't keep her trap shut. I'm pretty sure she was rather pissed because she wanted to be a part of something "cool." The group was absolutely cool. At any rate, this girl decided to call me out on another forum...Classless and rude were the words she used to describe me. I mean, I guess you could say that I can be rude...or that I'm just honest. ALL.THE.TIME. Some people don't like that. I've been told so many lies in my lifetime that I'd rather someone be blunt and honest than lie to me.

Whatever happened, though, I never publicly called this girl out. I never uttered her name. To me, it was the "classy" thing to do, you know, not publicly scold her or tell everyone what a complete joke she is, what a two-faced bitch she is. She subsequently blocked me on Facebook. I really don't care, although I'm not sure exactly why. I wasn't any kind of threat to her, nor was I harassing her or otherwise poking at her. A few days later, I figured out how to use Pinterest (yay, me!)...I started pinning the cool things that you see on some of my other entries, and magically, said chick decides to follow me on Pinterest. Funny, right? What's that all about?! You block me on Facebook, but you definitely want to follow my awesomeness on Pinterest? So I asked if people thought it was weird...and magically, she unblocks me on Facebook. Curious little cat, isn't she?

It got ugly when there was a post on a group that slandered one of my friends...and ME. Literally, she spelled out our first and last names and completely slandered us. She said that I had created a group that bashed other women from the other groups. She said that I was two-faced and that she name-dropped so that others would know about me and wouldn't be subject to the same fate that she was. She said that she "quickly left" once she "realized what it was" and that my friend and I were "the main bashers," whatever that means. I asked her to kindly not repeat my name again, and she got defensive and told me she was going to block me again. I told her that I wasn't sure why she ever UNblocked me...



So this leads me to a couple of things. First, it's all about loyalty. I've said it before, and I will continue to repeat it until I am dead and gone. I am loyal to my true friends. If you show me loyalty, you're damn right that I will reciprocate and take a fucking bullet for you. I'm that loyal. But listen, if you fuck me over, you best find a good hiding spot. I don't take kindly to people who fuck me over. I especially have no respect for liars. And I have plenty of people watching my back. How many people are watching yours? The last thing I am is two-faced. Anyone who actually takes the time to get to know me knows that. My friends know I will be the first to tell them they look fat in that dress, that their boyfriend is a worthless piece of shit, and that they need a new haircut. Whatever it is, I'm honest.

Here's the second thing: you know those people who say "I hate drama," "I don't need the drama," etc.? They're fucking liars. Everyone likes drama. Everyone. Women like drama, they like mindless gossip, they like criticizing each other, and they like to bitch about their husbands (no matter how awesome they really are). Why else do people watch television or read books or celebrity gossip magazines? Why is reality tv so damn popular? If everything was without conflict, life would be a boring ass waste of time with nothing to learn. Now, listen, you may not like to create drama perhaps, but own your shit. We all enjoy a little drama. It's fun. It makes life interesting. So those people who say they aren't about the drama...those are the ones you better watch. They are probably talking shit about you right this moment. Those who admit they enjoy a little drama, you can bet your ass they'll tell you when you look fat in something...and those are the friends I want in my life.

Here's to the haters...
