I just realized that I can’t tell if I actually am kind of a bitch or if I’ve just internalized the idea that having an emotional reaction to something upsets me is unacceptable for a “good girl” and this is kind of blowing my mind right now?

ETA: There's actually context for this, which mostly comes down to people being rude in comments. Why do I always get the upsetting ones in batches?

Comments

My theory on bad comment behavior is that they typically do come in batches. One person delivers a nasty and others are emboldened to follow. They travel in wolf packs. I'm sorry. I know it hurts. It's OK to be angry and upset.

Thank you, hon.

I'm always bewildered because it's usually not on the same story -- or, rather, in this case it was on Wake, one on the most recent chapter of Gambit, and two on older chapters of Gambit (those two were from the same person). So they shouldn't have seen each other? I don't even know. How do people. Why do people.
