i know i'm reacting emotionally and stereotypically and i'll probably regret what i said 2 days from now. it's bcs one of my closest friends on my MSc sent me an ELEVEN paragraph very emotionally heavy VERY dramatic and incredibly snide and accusatory message (bringing my family into it and essentially trying to get me to perform my identities in a way she expected) about something SHE misremembered, something SHE was projecting on me. because i asked for help wrt something that i did not know was a trigger for her. very much on the heels of other ppl lashing out at me for things i did not deserve to be lashed out at for. things i have apologised for and tried to make up for too.

#ma'am just take a breather and tell me u were triggered like. i won't ever bring it up again #no need to lash out n be hurtful like this #like if u KNOW that something is so fucking triggering for you at your big age #STEP BACK and talk about it once you've calmed down instead of indulging in a bit of good old character assassination #i'm not intentionally trying to hurt u bro!! i'll make amends for it!!#this was the same person who said all sorts of things about how it's sus that i don't talk about my class background #when i'm forthcoming w other identities #and it's like #we HAVE talked about it! at length!#i DON'T shy away from it!!#i try not to draw too much attention to it bcs it's really easy for that to come off as me being ungrateful or flaunting it #the funny part is she is ALSO upper class!!#but ppl in the UK treat class crazily so i am not surprised either
