Have you ever confided something vulnerable to someone---and they turn around and use it in an argument against you? How did that make you feel?

This happened today and I’m a bit raw…especially after a death in the family and all the holiday brou-ha-ha that is always rife with subconscious stuff. Some people just have incredibly bad manners and even worst timing.

Have you ever confided in someone and told them something that really hurt you or made you feel badly about yourself? And then they bring it out when they are losing an argument?

“Oh, Jeeves, I really hate the fact that the green hair on my head makes me look like a geek from Mars….”

“Oh, no….are you kidding? You look unique and very chic.”

And then when there is an argument, Jeeves (who knows he is up against the wall with nothing left) says: “You know you really DO look like a geek from Mars in that green hair…”

No, I don’t have green hair….but you get the picture…the people who know your Achilles heel and aim that arrow straight for it.

I don’t have a lot of people like that in my life….but even one like that seems like too many.

That ever happen to you? How did it make you feel? How did you deal with it?
