well, what do yall think?
the crazy, as in literally crazy, lady who had a starting 45 page site and called me daily, and several times a day for 9 months has been out for vengeance in every form, shape and way possible.
I've been trying to just ignore her and hoping she gets a clue, but I now know from experience, these are not humans I'm dealing with.
the sad part is she has developmentally disabled kids that she should be focusing on, but instead spends her day trying to harm me through others. I've been asked if I've wanted to proceed against her as she's left a trail of electronic, telephone and other evidence to mount against her. but like I said I feel sorry for people like that and it would be like taking candy from a baby.
what do yall think I should do since she won't get a clue? I can no longer assume humans will behave like humans. and now there's no telling what her twisted mind will do since she feels scorned (at my expense and time of course).
the thing that hurts the most is she got a MAJOR discount. and what I didn't get I had to pay for. only reason why I agreed to help her was because of someone who referred her to me, that I'm no longer speaking to because of her. for a starting 45 page website with an online store that she continually made changes to daily should have been 3000.00 min to start. the site grew to 65++ pages with nonstop calls. she even turned an e-newsletter into an out of control 4 page offline newspaper that no one hardly read or didn't draw attention to website. it became a nightmare for me as it wasn't part of agreement. she friggin sent me 9 articles all 3-5 pages long for it and was shocked it wouldn't fit on one page. can people be that clueless? but she does have retarded kids.
and she couldn't even take advantage of someone working for her, which most would count as a blessing and focus on their business, instead she wanted me and others to teach her HTML and everything else. the final sickness was hacking up her online store with little or no real knowledge of HTML, interrupting me, and then calling cussing and screaming over her mistake, and then calling me stupid for stopping what I was doing to fix her store.
turns out this is business as usual for her. same thing done to someone who ran screaming crying from her.then as soon as the newpaper was done, she was like "let's have a meeting to go over next one".
I explained again, e-news vs. newspaper, as in not something I could do. she couldn't even figure out how to open the file given to her to move on.and she called cluelessly several times a day and then tried to develop an overly personal relationship at my expense and time, and given I'd just been conned by someone I wasn't then or now "looking for a new friend to take a chance on"
she was a lonely bored housewife, with no adult friends or outlet. she just clung to me like I was her saving grace and here I was hanging by a thread trying to make it through each day (my priority). the moment she called me cussing and screaming over a mistake she made, it was time to cut that clingy string. I have my own life to deal with, couldn't take on her emotional dramas which were daily.and she calls herself a humble servant of god including while cussing and screaming, another sign she's mentally ill.
think she'll go away, or think she's just warming up and won't stop until she's satisfied? this is another part of her problem -- her husband can't satisfy her so she's looking for some other form of satisfaction -- the misery loves company factor. I actually had to hear about her bedroom dramas while I was like
and staring at an empty refrig and trying to figure out the following day too.
? Tell her in simple language, that you are too busy to help her anymore. Tell her to please stop calling you, that you would rather not associate with someone that feels so free to share their bedroom dramas to random people. If that doesn't help, pick up the phone when she calls.....tell her you're too busy and hang up immediately. Tell her to find someone else to help her, etc. She WILL get the hint. Don't allow yourself to be a punching bag. Most people are victims of people like this because they allow themselves to be. Honestly, don't worry about hurting her feelings.....she'll probably find someone else to latch onto and you'll no longer have a problem.
