writes:I recently had a text 'Your a nasty spiteful child :-@'. I don't know whether I should ignore it or make an issue out of it.Bit of background. I was involved with a woman at work earlier this year. It didn't work out and I'd like to think that we've remained friends. She was offered a promotion and I was very happy for her, but she wasn't supposed to have told anyone. Instead she talked to various people at work and management found out. The manager where I work is married to the owner and is a law unto herself. She ended up screaming at various people and withdrawing the promotion.That's when I receieved the text. I didn't recognise the number, but when I checked my history, I realised that it belonged to the best friend of the woman I was involved with. She thought that I'd dropped her in it with management and had been bad mouthing me to her mate. We talked about things later the same day and realised that it was neither of our faults, but I did make the point that I was upset about the text. She assured me that she was unhappy too and would be talking to her friend that night. Since then I've heard nothing.Do I continue to mention it or just let it go?

Yet the one who should have been quiet in the first place- thats where the 'blame' lies.
So maybe she learnt her lesson.
I say just see what happens. If you know full well it wasn't you and you played no part in it- why let it bother you?
