My DG Series 8, Ep1 - Jody Replies

69 Comments

This is Jody and my take on what happened in the DG this week.

What would you have done, if you were me?

Thank you for your comments. Read some of my replies below.

happytrampoliningchocolatewaffle's comment: I would talk to her about it and tell her the stuff I didn't want her to share, Jody's reply: Believe me, I would have loved to talk to her about it properly and find out what she was up to, but May-Li didn't give me that opportunity. She went ahead without giving me all the information I needed to make a decision.
Book Reader Dancer's comment: I wouldn't have jumped to conclusions, May-Ii chose you because she was proud of how despite your history you have become a caring, helpful and welcoming member of the DG. You can see that May-Li was upset because she resigned from hurting your feelings, maybe look at it from her perspective, I think she was very proud of how far you've come. Jody's reply: Thank you for your advice. I appreciate you taking the time. You know what? I don\u2019t actually feel like May-Li was proud of me. I feel like she did what she wanted to, without thinking about me hardly at all.
U17898478's comment: I would of talked to May-Li and told her I felt uncomfortable with her using my life as a case study. Jody's reply: But that's the thing, U17898748, I didn't know what May-Li was going to do, so I couldn't talk to her beforehand. It\u2019s like I said to happytrampoliningchocolatewaffle, May-Li didn't tell me what she was planning and I can't forgive her for that.
User Aaisha786: Hi Jody! I love you! In my opinion, you should tell May-Li that you are not comfortable with her using you. If I am honest, I think that May-Li is incredibly proud of you of how far that you have come and how you have solved problems all by yourself! You are a caring, loving, determined DG member, who has helped out so many times that maybe it is time for you to recognise that May-Li is going to need your help when she needs it, because she can trust you! With Mike gone, she needs someone to help her! It might as well be you because of how amazing you are! Jody's reply: I appreciate what you have said SO much. I feel really upset about what has happened and the kind words you\u2019ve said about me really help.
U18011790's comment: I get that you were mad and i would have intervened too... But maybe smashing the laptop was too far. You should have come in and talked it through with mai li and jenny. I'm sure they would have understood why you were upset and mai li may have agreed not to show her presentation and talked to jenny about helping you with you there instead. Jody's reply: I admit it U18011790 - smashing the laptop was a big move. I felt so angry and betrayed. But May-Li took my feelings and smashed them. It's how I was feeling at the time.
