I know that those women that I hang out with talk about me behind my back, they've been doing this to all their friends once any of them is missing. They know I don't do like them but that doesn't change a thing when they want to talk about me, I would go to the corner then come back to find that their looks have changed. Now I don't have much confidence in myself, I never had the guts to tell them to shut up and I always fear what they would say about me, I know I shouldn't care though but this is how I feel. I wish I could get them out of my head but I keep failing. Of course, if I could get them all out of my life I would have, but I can't because these are the wives of my husband's friends and we hang out with them every week end!!
How can I get over them and be with them without letting them get to me or make me feel less?

Hi there,
Are you talking about a specific group of women, or women in general?
If it is a specific group, just remember you don't need them to make you feel bad, you allow yourself to feel bad because of them. Try your best to tune them out.
Remember you are always your best friend and your best enemy too.
Best,
Clyde

You don't have to hang out with them just because they are the wives of your husband's friends! Your husband has his friends, and you can have yours too, and they don't have to be the same couples! Just say no thank you. Say you planned something different this weekend, and then go do something. Why not volunteer somewhere? That will get you into another grouping of people, and feed your soul too.
