I think that's why I'm so guerrilla warfare about schools slapping girls down when they are mean to each other. I hate how important it is to be "liked", we can tell ourselves it doesn't matter, but it does. Glad you were able to find a new way. We definitely act differently in groups than one on one, I think we guard ourselves so much in groups that we can come off as judging when we're really just being wary. Good post.

Good post.
