So. To make a long story short, I posted a link to a story on facebook.
Result: I guess the way I stated my opinion was written in such a way that people thought I meant the opposite of what I actually meant. I didn't take it very well. At all. I just thought to myself, "These people are my FRIENDS. Don't they know me better than this than to think that I would believe something like this???" I even cried over it, I was so upset. I was just hurt because I've spent a lot of time on researching and studying social issues and such, and I felt like all of that hard work didn't even count. Of course I know I was overreacting, but for some reason it just really got to me at the time. Then I talked to my boyfriend about the whole thing, and he said it was just a misunderstanding, and the way that I stated my opinion was confusing. So he said I was just taking it way too personally.
So I ended up just deleting the whole entire thing, post and comments and all, and re-posting the original article. I just wanted to start that whole thing over!
