    all of the sudden i am out to steal everyone's man?!

    Why is it that as soon as your partnered friends realise you are single, they all of a sudden feel extremely threatened by you??

    Last night I was at my bestie's birthday party. Of course I spent most of my time on the dance floor, and my bestie and her brother danced the night away with me. My bestie and her brother are like family to me, i grew up with them. The brother's partner was all happy that we were dancing together at the party, til she over heard me telling a friend that my marriage was over. WELL, LOOK OUT! She was at me for the rest of the night about trying to steal her man! I mean this guy is like my brother, trust me, I wasnt stealing ANY body.

    I chose to look at the situation and take it as a compliment, obviously they think I am attractive enough to be a threat, so yay for me

    I told my Mum about it and she said that when she left my Dad she lost most of her friends cause they all felt too threatened by her!

    Why is it that we women take any chance we can to turn on each other??

    Big cuddles. I personally haven't experienced this but I have heard about it happening. I don't know why some women feel so threatened - just be you, respect the boundaries (which you no doubt do) & hold your head high. Cuddles again.

    O that sucks hun~ But like you said in a way a nice compliment :-)

    I was accused of stealing My mums friend's husband when I was 17 - Just becuase I was young, single and we got along... It didn't get any better when he stuck up for me one night either "rolls eyes"

    Don't stress too much hun, it's not your fault that she is insecure. You did nothing wrong xoxoxo

    I agree, she's just insecure.
