Weird, that sort of happened to me once (here) when I did something similar and indicated in a thread I wasn't that attracted to/interested in meeting
a very well known ECCIE provider who was in her main thread fermenting drama and loads of sickening white knight asswipery.
She wrote me immediately and indicated she knew me, my family etc and implied I was in trouble. Of course, she didn't really know me, had never met or spoken with me before, so there was no real risk and it was a silly threat, however it told me a lot about her mindset at that time. I just stepped back and chalked it up to the provider (her) being overly sensitive in the heat of that moment and just moved on (I don't hold grudges). Ironically, due to our close geo-location, I actually do know her, see her around, and
yet I would never ever do that to her. It's just not how I am.
She knows who she is (who I described above) and it's been awkward for her (regarding me) ever since. Given I'm probably one of the more reasonably decent people here, it's kind of sad actually. Despite it all, I still like her and think she's a great mom to her kid and just want her to have a happy and secure life.
Ah, live and learn. It's a small world afterall.
