I have been on here for a lot of years
and
I have seen it all
Sometimes you just have to develop a thick skin
If not then look at it this way
---
these people are not your friends
They are no one's friends
They are not part of your life
and
in most cases they have no lives
They will never mean anything to you
they can never mean anything to you
unless you allow them to
They disappear as soon as you close that cellphone
or computer
That is the only place they exist
They are just sad,
lonely,
disturbed people that have no lives
no friends
and
they feel that the only way they will
ever 'feel' better,
is to torment you
and
the many others they torment
and you can be sure you are not the only
object of their torment
They have to have that feeling
that feeling of power
But,
believe me,
they only have power over you if you allow them to have power
Otherwise,
they are just a word on a screen
An insignificant jumble of letters
and numbers
Do not give them the power
Send the trolls back under the bridges
in the sewerage
where they belong
