			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>Handling My Stalkers</h1>
<h3>WARNING: Egomaniacal Disrespect &amp; Life Endangerment</h3>
<h3>How To Protect Yourself &amp; Punish Offenders</h3>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">There is no excuse for walking passed Me (or any Dominant) in a public BDSM venue to introduce yourself to MY sub and OUT him by addressing him by his legal name</span></strong> (provided by a former friend who is so impressed with her belief in her intelligence that she <span style="text-decoration:underline;">never</span> sees how easily she continues to be manipulated by losers) &#8211; <strong>especially when I introduced MY sub to everyone </strong> </span> <strong> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> <em>I wanted to introduce him to</em></span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><strong> by his <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Scene</span> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Name</span>.</strong>  The offender, an insidious excuse for a &#8220;master,&#8221; is so obsessed with Me and My life that his heinous breach of protocol endangered My sub&#8217;s child custody battle, causing Me to end My relationship with THE sub of My dreams and love of My life.  <em>(I will never stand in the way of a good parent&#8217;s relationship with her/his children.  That&#8217;s what responsible people do and what Real Love looks like in action.)</em></span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">This miscreant&#8217;s consistent transgressions against Me &#8211; while he called himself a &#8220;dear friend&#8221; &#8211; have included pathological lying, cheating, stealing money and property from Me, attempting to sabotage My events and relationships, and using My name and reputation to gain favors and introductions to influential people in The Scene.  This creep&#8217;s numerous offenses have caused Me to cut him off from Me and My Domain for more than 3 years &#8211; which is the greatest punishment because </span><strong> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> <span style="color:#cc0066;"><em>I AM THE FETISH that I want to be</em></span></span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><strong> </strong>- and obviously what he wants to be, too.  I now understand the look in his father&#8217;s eyes, clearly wishing </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> he</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> had been the son who&#8217;d died.  he should change his name to </span> <strong><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"><em>&#8220;mirage&#8221;</em></span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> to reflect the enormity of his delusions of grandeur in the vast desert of his reality, which completely lacks of any talent, integrity, intelligence, and value.</span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><a href="http://partydomme.com/newsletter.htm#forgiveness"> I have forgiven Myself for taking pity on yet another corny, slob</a> by permitting him to attend events with Me <em>(after creating a sense of style for him not to publicly embarrass Me)</em>; introducing him to Fetish Luminaries who were My &#8220;friends&#8221;; helping him save his marriage via My counseling services with his wife; permitting Myself to be someone his children adored; and setting him up to have a dungeon with that same, silly <a href="http://partydomme.com/article-Dommevdumme.htm" target="_blank">dumme</a> &#8211; who should apologize for her errors and arrogance, but of course, has not.  It is not My crime that My kindness has been repaid with treachery.  </span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">I neither tolerate nor dismiss the sanctimonious attitudes of people who&#8217;ve ignored Me when I&#8217;ve told them many times, over the past 3 years, about this loser&#8217;s offenses.  Not only have some ignored Me, but, after I expressly and repeatedly requested that they do not discuss any aspect of My life with him, they have contributed to him being able to spy on and invade My life to the point of creating irreparable damage.  They&#8217;ve even had the audacity to be annoyed with ME when I made such requests of them </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"><em><strong>for <span style="text-decoration:underline;">MY</span> well-being and safety</strong></em></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> because the offender <em><strong>&#8220;never did anything&#8221; to them</strong></em>.  </span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">This is the same type of behavior exhibited by people who tell a rape victim that s/he should not have been walking down <em>that</em> street and who cry the loudest at the funerals of victims who have been killed by the same stalkers the victims complained to them about.   Fortunately for Me, I&#8217;ve told each and every culprit that WHEN they&#8217;ve offended Me beyond repair, that they WILL be added to the list of people who will always try to regain entry into My Domain.  </span><em><strong> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> And here We are.</span></strong></em><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  In a very short amount of time, they will realize that they miss Me more than I will ever miss them because </span><strong> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> <span style="color:#cc0066;"><em>I AM THE FETISH that I want to be</em></span></span></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.  That&#8217;s what is so good about </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> &#8220;predictable disappointments&#8221;</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> -  they are predictable!  So, when they fail any benefits of doubt you extend to them, you are emotionally prepared while they never are.  And they suffer&#8230; as they should.</span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">In a previous newsletter, I wrote a segment on <a href="http://partydomme.com/NewsletterArchives/newsletter110211-REMOVED.htm#10" target="_blank">OUTTING OR PROTECTING</a>.  However, </span><strong><em> <span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> Karma is a wonderful thing.</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  To protect My friends, I told a few people I care for about this idiot and cohort&#8217;s offenses and guess what?  Someone powerful, who </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> truly</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> appreciates all that I create for True Fetishists to enjoy the finer aspects of Our Scene, has stepped in to protect Me <span style="color:#008000;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">and</span> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">you</span></strong></span> from the possibility of suffering such horrors in the future from people whose behaviors have raged out of control <strong>because no one else has been responsible enough to put them in check</strong>.  </span> <em><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> I absolutely LOVE that I have NOT had to do anything and the perpetrators themselves are responsible for the solution to this problem!</span></strong></em><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  Here&#8217;s what&#8217;s been done to date:</span></p>

<td valign="top"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">My friends at the FBI have insisted on taking all of the evidence that I&#8217;ve collected over the years to prove that this creature has been stalking Me and have &#8220;opened a file&#8221; on him.  If he even approaches Me, I have been advised to make a phone call and the FBI </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> will</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> handle it.  Hopefully, if he happens into an environment where I am, he will finally be smart enough to </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> avoid Me and Mine completely</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.  </span> <em><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> This is the final warning</span></strong></em><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.  If he offends Me again, he will make his family suffer along with him as he faces legal ramifications which can include <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/fbi-search?cx=004748461833896749646:e41lgwqry7w&amp;cof=FORID:10;NB:1&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;q=stalking&amp;sa=Search&amp;siteurl=www.fbi.gov/&amp;siteurl=www.fbi.gov/about-us/cirg/investigations-and-operations-support#output=xml_no_dtd&amp;client=google-" target="_blank"> time in prison</a>.</span></td>

<td valign="top"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">My friends at the FBI have also decided to watch (1) the decrepit creep I threw out of My SWIRL Soiree in August 2011 who contacted everyone he &#8220;friended&#8221; on a fetish site by private message to claim he was thrown out for &#8220;singing to a beautiful woman&#8221; and (2) the <em>pasty</em> &#8220;deviant&#8221; who (i) fantasizes that he&#8217;s actually attended My events, (ii) fantasizes that he&#8217;s actually served Me, and worse, (iii) had the gall to claim he was a sexual consideration of Mine.  Since anyone with half a brain would take one look at him and know that he is unacceptable in every way (I&#8217;m a beauty &amp; body Fetishist), I ignored him and didn&#8217;t think he was any type of &#8220;threat&#8221;.  </span><em><strong> <span style="color:#008000;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> However, the FBI has a different view on <a href="http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cirg/investigations-and-operations-support" target="_blank">what constitutes stalking and who should be considered a threat</a>.</span></strong></em></td>

</div>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">I maintain that </span><strong><em> <span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> if you are not a part of the solution, you are a part of the problem</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.  I hope that these barbarians (and others like them) see that <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>the reason the FBI took the initiative to get involved was created by their insidious behaviors</strong></span><span style="color:#cc0066;">.</span>  What&#8217;s more, <span style="color:#008000;">I hope that people reading this will step up to protect Our Scene by taking action to prevent creeps from continuing to ruin and make it a sleaze-fest for the abominable.  </span> <span style="color:#ff0000;">The habit of permitting offenders to hide in the shadows by remaining silent makes YOU a party to the harm these creeps cause to all of Us.</span></span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">These pathetic people and their obsessions with Me and Mine are why </span> <strong><em><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> another of My mottos is: &#8220;Don&#8217;t start none, won&#8217;t be none&#8230;&#8221;</span></em></strong><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;">  </span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">EVERY person who has been cut off from Me and My Domain ALWAYS tries to return &#8211; ALWAYS.  The reason for this is because </span><strong><em> <span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> I come from LOVE; I focus on a person&#8217;s strengths, talents, and their potential for greatness and teach them how to appreciate themselves.</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  Sadly, these people begin to believe that they are greater than the goodness I&#8217;ve shown them about themselves &#8211; and without merit, of course.  They become jealous, controlling, petty &#8211; all the things you read and hear them say about </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> Me</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> as they babble on with obvious &#8220;sour grape&#8221; scenarios.  Because what they say about Me does not matter to Me or to the people I care about, they creepily go to great lengths to get My attention, which they so desperately miss and need.  One of the greatest gifts that I give to Myself is to withhold My greatness from the unworthy.  </span> <strong><em><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> When you love yourself, you don&#8217;t need to harass, invade, berate, etc.  You <span style="text-decoration:underline;">are</span> enough to be happy with your own life.</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  The pity of it all is how many miserable creatures there are who are too lazy to do the work to improve themselves to create their happiness; instead they seek to destroy yours.</span></p>
<p align="left"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">Fortunately for all involved, </span> <em><strong><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;">I believe in Karma</span></strong></em><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.  I also understand &#8220;humanoid&#8221; behavior, particularly behaviors of those whose lack of self-love, worth, and esteem foster pretensions that keep them prisoners to repeating the same mistakes over and over again because they will not learn and grow beyond their desperate, ego-personas in order to avoid facing their TRUE selves.  Sadist that I am, I </span> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> enjoy</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> knowing that the suffering they caused Me and Mine is much less than the suffering that their offenses to Me now and will continue to cause them.  </span> <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">They created their punishments and tortures, which are well deserved.</span></strong><span style="color:#ff0000;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  </span></p>
<p align="left"><strong><em><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"> May 2012 bring an end to the rampant wickedness and bring a new birth to the Beauty of The Fetish Lifestyle!  And may you always see your Truth when you look in the mirror.</span></em></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>
<h2>You Won’t Like My Events If…</h2>
</div>
<p>1)    <strong>You think that My Events are open to everyone, the more-the merrier, or that I desire for everyone to want to attend them.</strong>  NO.  I make it very clear that My Events are NOT for everyone and that only those with the utmost respect and integrity for themselves, for others, and for The Fetish Scene are welcome.  I keep the number of attendees at an intimate level to foster a real sense of Community among people with beautiful energies.  Creatures who think that to withhold respect and common courtesy is a sign of control/Dominance/self-worth are completely confused and need to learn to become better beings elsewhere.</p>
<p>2)    <strong>You think that because you attend, it’s all about you</strong>.  NO, it’s MY Event and you are <em>invited</em> into MY Domain.  Invited guests are always on their best behavior or they will be ejected, never to return.  Respect and manners are to be given at all times in order for you to receive them.  Again, undesireables will be ejected upon the first inkling of bad behavior, never to return.  I don’t care how much losers whine to anyone who will entertain garbage; I mean it when I say <em>I don’t want just anyone in My Domain</em> and I fiercely protect My Guests.</p>
<p>3)    <strong>You think that because you paid admission that you are entitled to every- and anything.</strong>  NO.  You pay admission to offset My costs.  Because I don’t enjoy partying in dark dives and paying exorbitant prices for cheap wine and beer, I choose venues, hors d’oeuvres, and. beverages that are of fine quality, are healthy, and that I actually enjoy.  Unlike just about every other event promoter I’ve encountered in The Scene, <em>I do not produce events to make money.</em>  Since I’m not a trust-fund-kid, I have a budget to adhere to in order to share some of the delights of My Domain with others.  My goal is to create a good time with good people and (hopefully) break-even with My expenses.  I produce events so that:</p>
<p>a)    I create a milieu to attract like-energies;</p>
<p>b)    I can meet people I’d actually like to commune with;</p>
<p>c)    I can meet quality Dominants and submissives rather than tolerate the many “<a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-Dommevdumme.htm" target="_blank">dummes</a>” and “<a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-subvsub.htm" target="_blank">substandards</a>” that troll around <em>everywhere</em>;</p>
<p>d)    I can create a safe haven for people who have a sincere desire to learn and share with and from the Fetish Elite; and</p>
<p>e)    I can enjoy the company of people I already know and like.</p>
<p>Notice the key word in the above sentences: <em>“I.”</em>  I create the type of events that I wish were available for Me to enjoy.  If you attend My Events, <em>you are contributing to your ability to enjoy the finer things that are standard in My Domain</em>.</p>
<p>4)    <strong>You want to determine the Rules of Protocol</strong>.  NO.  Titles are used and <em><a href="http://classicfetish.org/">ClassicFetish™</a></em> etiquette is demanded of all who enter into My Domain.  Since My best friends address Me as <em>Mistress Didi</em>, so will you, and I will reciprocate in kind.  Others are also to be address by their titles, unless told otherwise by the individuals.  <em>Ma’am, Mistress, Miss,</em> and <em>Sir</em> are to be used at all times.  <em>Thank you, please,</em> and <em>excuse me</em> are also expected in conversations of all who attend.  Courtesy is a gift that is returned ten-fold.  If any of this is a problem for you or your owner, do not attend, which will be a Win-Win for Me no matter how one looks at it.</p>
<p>5)    <strong>You think you know everything about producing events and ridiculously dare to even think to tell Me how I should produce Mine in MY Domain.  Or worse, you want to whine about what you want in My Domain.</strong>  NO.  Produce your own events and, if they are not in a sleazoid venue with a self-indulgent DJ blasting music so that I can’t even hear Myself speak, I will check out what you offer.  If it’s not My thing, I have the grace not to disrespect your creation; I just won’t be a frequent visitor.  I support you in creating what you desire and sincerely wish you well in your endeavors.  That’s what Self-Love and Respect look like in practice; there’s no need or reason for jealousy, avarice, pettiness, etc. from anyone for anyone else.  I understand that The Universe works so that when one wins, We can all win, if We are available to prosperity consciousness.  It’s also called having class and good upbringing.</p>
<p>6)    <strong>You think you should or will be catered to</strong>.  NO.  I am a Real Domme, not your mom.  Again, an <em>invited </em>guest does not try to be the center of attention, hog all the Play or the party photographer, or dictate to My staff or guests.  I am also not a “<a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-Dommevdumme.htm" target="_blank">hoochie-with-a-whip</a>” in the service industry; <em>I’m in the “be served” business.</em>  It serves Me and brings Me joy to produce events where cool people enjoy themselves and each other.</p>
<p>7)    <strong>You lack social skills</strong>.  For example, although I have event staff, clean up after yourself.  That’s common courtesy and respectful of other guests.  Basic social graces are all that are required to be a participant in any of My Events.  Since there is an epidemic of growing numbers of people who lack such skills, I have taken the time to give yet another gift in the form of a <strong><a href="http://partydomme.com/ebook-motivation.htm" target="_blank">Free eBook: <em>How To Properly Present yourself To A Mistress</em></a>,</strong> which is a primer in basic Scene etiquette that is a great resource for Dominants and submissives alike.</p>
<p>8)    <strong>You think I’m elitist</strong>.  YES, I am.  And with good reason.  I’ve dedicated Myself to becoming a skilled, Fetish Artist with many years of blood, sweat, and tears (which was a lot of fun for Me and My Playmates) to honestly walk My talk.  I cultivated My style with grace and aplomb to become an expert in many techniques.  I am offended by all these “<a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-Dommevdumme.htm" target="_blank">dummes</a>” and “<a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-subvsub.htm" target="_blank">substandards</a>” who dare to dictate to ME, and others of My caliber, on the who-what-how things should be when they can barely even hold a flogger to flail it.  My Domain and My Events are for the <em>crème-de-la-crème</em> of The Fetish Lifestyle and for those who wish to contribute to and be a part of Us.</p>
<p>9)    <strong>You think I’m a bitch and you don’t understand the power</strong>.  YES, I am proud to be a REAL Dominant who is <em><a href="../../../../../bitch/" target="_blank">Being In Total Control of Herself = My Domain</a></em>.  The primary reason that I am Dominant is because I want things the way I want them in My Domain (the same goes for just about every other Dominant that I know and associate with).  The truth is that most people think <em>you’re</em> a bitch when they can’t have what they want in <em>your</em> Domain.  These kinds of people are lazy and lack personal responsibility for their own lives and want to invade yours.  I don’t allow this on any level.</p>
<p>I also do not care if people like Me or what I create in My Domain.  If you don’t like it, don’t accept My gracious invitation to join Me in it.  Simple.</p>
<p><em>It’s not your job to like Me; it’s Mine. ~ Byron Katie</em></p>
<p>If any of the above holds true for you, My Events are NOT for you.  Life is too short to spend time on things that do not fit in with your comfort zone and I support you in enjoying what does.  My Events are just a few of many opportunities to be grateful for your freedom to choose.  Please be grateful for such freedom; not everyone has it.</p>
<p><em>You are responsible for the energy you bring. ~ Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor</em></p>
<p><strong><em>Always MY Pleasure,<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">Especially now, as </span><strong><em> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:large;"> the energies are aligning for Us to become the best We can be</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">, it is paramount to take stock and value yourself!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> Who knew that when I wrote My blog post, <strong> <a href="../2011/06/13/end-of-a-love-affair-the-gruesomes/" target="_blank"> End of A Love Affair and the &#8220;gruesomes&#8221;</a></strong> that I would receive over 50 emails of thanks to date and they keep coming!  I will tell the truth and say that My post was a </span><strong><em> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:large;"> warning</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> to creatures I find offensive in every way to mind their own business and keep their noses out of Mine.  However, as always, I endeavor to come from the Highest Place of Love and Consideration that I can present and in this way, I touched the hearts of many people to help them transition to a place of peace with relationship&#8230; stuff&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">These dialogs all seem to resolve to the same place: the lack of recognition of one&#8217;s own worth because value is placed on someone else.  <strong> <span style="color:#cc0066;"> Reality Check: 1) no one can love you if you do not love yourself and 2) you cannot love someone who does not love himself &#8211; he won&#8217;t let you and will torture you for trying</span></strong> (it&#8217;s the nature of the self-loathing).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> Fortunately for Us all, I believe that </span><strong><em> <span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:large;"> to be of service is the highest good</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"> and that&#8217;s not just for The Fetish Lifestyle.  Many people don&#8217;t bother to actually <a href="http://blackthornz.com/about.htm" target="_blank">read My website to be aware of My therapeutic credentials which are listed in My bio</a>.  </span> <strong><em><span style="color:#cc0066;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:large;"> And everything in My Bio is True.</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  So, I&#8217;ve presented below a segment of some advice I gave in response to a letter from a fabulous person to remind Us all to remember to </span> <span style="color:#cc0066;"> <strong><em><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:large;"> Value Your Truth</span></em></strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">.</span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">  These tips are beneficial for a variety of situations in Our lives, not just for relationships of the heart.  </span></p>
<h2>Tips To Remember Your Value</h2>
<p><em><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;">&#8230; When a relationship ends, We tend to over-complicate things and over-analyze every thought and emotion We have.  What you need to remember is that you don&#8217;t have to make yourself miserable when a situation doesn&#8217;t work the way you &#8220;expected&#8221; it to.  Here are some tips for getting over &#8220;the blues&#8221; (whatever their source):<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am writing this post as a courtesy for damage control.  I am astounded that creatures who never bother to say hello or be polite to Me at events have the audacity to contact Me inquiring about a situation with a person I dated.  Seriously, I would not have ever imagined such insidious behavior – even from people who obviously don’t<strong> <a href="http://blackthornz.com/expected2.htm" target="_blank">read anything about Me</a></strong>.</p>
<p>I tell people what I want them to know.  Period.  The only reason I’m bothering to comment on the scavenging is to eliminate the opportunity for the usual-jealous-ugly-creatures to besmirch the person who is no longer a part of My life – though, the bumpkins will gossip lies anyway because that is all they have.  This behavior is typical of people with a low sense of self-worth with good reason.</p>
<p>My Mother is a lady, as are/were ALL of the Women in My Family on all sides for as many generations as I can count.  I grew up with and continue to be surrounded by a lot of love.  Perhaps, this (also known as “good breeding” and “good home training”) is why I have no sense of jealousy for any other person and the ability to genuinely be happy for and wish other people well.  I do not revel in the pains of others, not even those I intensely dislike due to their offenses against Me.  Such behavior subtracts from your own worth and attracts negativity to you.  I am enough in Myself that I do not need to waste energy “dissing” others when I could put that energy into doing more things to honor and love Myself.</p>
<p>I am disgusted by people who do not love or value themselves.  I call these creatures <strong><em>“gruesomes”</em></strong> because they are not only ugly on the inside, they are inevitably ugly on the outside.  Instead of seeking to improve the conditions of their lives, they seek to belittle everyone and everything in order to feel comfortable in their gruesomeness.  They create communities of others like them to wallow in the muck and mire of the pathetic excuses for lives they choose to create while seeking out those of Us who <strong><em>truly are fabulous</em></strong> to lie, cheat,  and attempt to sling into the feculence of their miserable realities.</p>
<p>A True Lady does not discuss the details of Her love affairs or such matters that are usually put into that category.  If She has cause to mention the departed lover, She refrains from any displays of negativity – especially in public and particularly around gruesomes.</p>
<p>I will NEVER speak ill of anyone I have had any sort of relationship (or attempts at relationships) with because I have too much self-respect to have the need to besmirch another person.  This is evident in the way I have never spoken ill of the silly <strong><a href="http://www.partydomme.com/article-Dommevdumme.htm" target="_blank">dummes</a></strong> who have attempted to gain attention for themselves by telling lies on Me – and they’re still telling those same, old, tired, lies that have been exposed!  People with a sense of low-self-worth do not ever realize that a person’s truths are evident based on their merits, which is why like attracts like and the fabulous associate with the fabulous and the gruesomes hang with the gruesomes.  Take a good look around you.</p>
<p>I am evolved enough as a human being to understand that every person is <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><em>unique to your experience</em></span> and that when people don’t click, you should move on.  I accept responsibility for My actions, which include choosing to stay in/leave situations with the goal of My happiness.  Because I not only value Myself, I honor My integrity and I choose to remember the positive qualities that I found attractive in people who are now in My Past.  I encourage everyone to do the same to reject negative feelings that do not serve you.  If you love yourself, you do not need to have contempt for anyone you attempted to love.</p>
<p>When all the gossip buzzes around you like flies to manure, take a good look at the perpetrators, and see just how gruesome they are.  There’s value to the adage: <em><strong>Consider the source</strong>.</em>  Sometimes, you can judge a book by its cover.</p>
