Annette, I just wanted to say welcome! I wish I had an answer for you. Hopefully someone who is better with words will post an answer. All I can say is to be sure you are covered in prayer when you have to be around these people. Continue to trust in God and He will get you through this. Also, pray for those people.

Hi Annette,
Welcome. I believe scripture says we are to pray for our enemies and bless them. We are to love them and do loving things for them. Not always easy, believe me. Sometimes I just avoid them if I feel vulnerable to not handling them appropriately.
You can always e-mail a friend and get more specific advice for a particular situation too.
Hugs,
Trish
