Bickering on local boards...

So I'm looking for comments on a situation.  On my surgeon's board on OH, there's this really perky gal who goes up and down with her moods.  Someone upsets her or her weight isn't going the right way and she posts that she's going to stop posting.  Then everyone comes back and cheers her up and she says she's ok now or something along those lines. We all post our successes and it's an encouragement for the newer post-ops.  I am only on the boards during the week because the weekend is just too busy for me most times.  There have been several times that I've posted about weight losses or achievements in the gym where she never posts a congratulations to me.  It is obvious too because she makes it a point to congratulate everyone.  I don't know what I ever did to her, but I don't even know her and for me it's not worth it to PM her to ask her what's up.   Make a long story short, I stopped posting responses to her.  Now she's making comments about me on the local boards.  Here's one of her quotes:  "It's amazing how many people pick and chose who they respond to on this board. I just don't get it!!"  It was posted right after two of us congratulated someone on their 1 year surgiversary.   I really want to PM her and ask her what her problem is.  But my gut is telling me to ignore her comments and leave it at that.  This feels like high school all over again and I'm just not in to it, but I feel like she's sending PMs to other board members bad mouthing me.   So sound off and let me know what you think.

Just ignore her; sounds like she has her own issues going on, and you do not need her negative energy to affect you.  I've blocked a few people when I've regularly found their posts offensive or troubling.  Although I may miss an occasional interesting thread or discussion, that's a better/safer path for me.  Frankly, I've got enough drama in my own life, without getting dragged in to someone else's personal soap opera.  My advice:  take the high road on this one...   Kellie

Sounds to me that you have a Drama Queen in your mist. Don't give into her just ignore her she is bored and sturring problems is how she probably has fun. Dont inable that behavior It will go away!!

I'd either ignore her or straight up block her.  Sounds like she's desperate for attention and its really not worth letting it get to you :)

What they Said!!!!   Ditto!!!!

  "Frankly, I've got enough drama in my own life, without getting dragged in to someone else's personal soap opera.  My advice:  take the high road on this one...  " Amen sister.  Chalk it up to immaturity - don't waste your energy on trying to amend someone else's negativity.  Some people like to be miserable. . .

If its true that she is trying to turn others against you...(it does sound like high school) You are above that. You don't need her or anyone else who may buy into her immaturity.  Those who continue to PM you will prove who's worthy of your time & friendship. It will work itself out.  HUGS  Jeanine

Thanks for all the support everyone.  I've been pretty much doing that for a while.  Although the meanie in me wants to send her a nasty PM, I am so above that.   I will do all my local encouraging on the Local boards by PM so that no one can get offended that I left them out.

For some people it seems to be a way of life. Ignore her, and hold your head up high. High school is overwith, now's the time we all should be acting like adults. Your a way better person than to let her engage you in bickering and it shows!
