And let you know if things are better or worse. Likely worse. Then say "Not my fault...I warned you." Then hang up.

I'm not living positively enough. I will say my partner is a pain. But he's paying the bills so... anyway, I'm always someone who's wrong and it gets tiresome to hear that all the time. Only I can improve my life. I shared hurt from another relative with her and she's throwing it up in my face again. I really wish I hadn't said anything

Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like she is someone who you should share your troubles with. She quite possibly has enough of them on her own and doesn't want any more. Who knows?

As far as positivity goes, there's a very fine line between positivity and ignoring the truth. Sometimes, things are not good. When it's that way, the bad should never just be ignored but addressed where possible. To do otherwise is just living in denial.

Stick with it but be realistic. Life is a balance on a sharpened wedge.

Facebook is a cesspool of scam advertisers, T****-lovers, and full-on crazy. That's why I never signed up, as I'm frankly not interested in seeing my fourth cousin's new puppy or seeing MAGA gear ads. It's not as bad as Twitter/X for the hatred, but it's not far behind. I much prefer the safer community here in DU.

if this is going on over the phone then block the number or don't answer or answer and say "i'll have to call you back" and hang up before she can open her mouth to object. then do not call her back

no one needs that crap. you said you weren't well -- getting rid of her negativity is a great idea.

hope you feel better soon
