i need to let out some steam.

i may have a new loan horse and i told one of my friends (we shall call her beth) about her. i am 16, and i have been riding at a place for a while and beth keeps her horse on livery at the yard where i ride for someone. after telling her about possible loan horse, i recieved a truely horrible text message that obviously wasnt ment from me, saying i was a silly cow, ive been duped and that she thinks even less of my mum.

why is my mum brought in to this in the first place?? she knew nothing of the horse other then the text i said about her which was positive.

Beth had asked me to ride her horse and jump her horse for her and i rode her twice and all i did was say good things about her and her horse. i genuinely got on with her and liked her.

im so angry and she feels she can judge this horse when she knows nothing about it, how she can judge ME after being nice and a good friend to her. how can she judge my mother??

anyway, i called her and said how hurt i am to which she replied that she was 'angry' that she feels that i have been duped. she says its only my best interests at heart, obviously trying to push me over. so i told her why would i take advice off you when i have a perfectly capable mother to guide me, a good trainer and my own experiences?? (trust me, i am older then my time and can judge a horse to suit me by myself.) i am fuming!

i am SO angry and gutted. urgh rant over.
why are horsey people so mean? ok im calm now. i think.

hot choc for getting this far!!
 
NOT A FRIEND TELL HER TO STUFF IT , I had been riding with a girl for about 5 years we went all over the place , she was into competition , and i had bought a trailer , to cut a long story short , she asked me to take her to a show cause her dad was away , and she would share the petrol, she turned funny with me for no reason and never paid me the ten pounds which didnt bother me but she put our friendship at stake over ten quid , dont see her any more silly twat x ditch the bitch lol
 
im planning to never speak to her again.

im very close with her daughter and i feel so [****] for putting her in such a horrible situation but she apologised for her mothers behaviour and were fine thank god.

thank you for all the feel good comments you've left me.
 
As the others have said - some people just have to rain on your parade - she is probably jealous.

From now on just ignore and when you do see her just smile sweetly and carry on.

Agree, smile sweetly and ignore her.

Hugs, and don't let it upset you, some people are bitter, but don't let them affect you!

There is a saying about if it will effect your life in two weeks worry about if not let it go. Its a good one to pratice as you soon start thinking sod it it aint worth the time to worry about . We worry about a lot of things we dont need to I would say sod it to this as long as you are happy what else matters, and agree smile when you next see her it will put her on edge more as she will be wanting you to expolde
 
I'm afraid that's life for you. There are an awful lot of people like this out there

If it's any consolation I never see them coming either.

Trust your instincts, you sound mature, she has acted like a jealous child IMO

I would just smile, maybe say hello and keep walking!

I never get in to the ignoring people game personally. I find it much easier to say hello (and you can then watch them turning themselves inside out trying to avoid your eye!) and keep going.

Sounds like jealousy to me............. I had this when I was the first one at our yard to make the move from ponies to horses.........due to the fact i was the blumming tallest!!

A girls mother said about my new horse "he was obviously taken off his mother to early, and will always have issues, and never be right" all becasue said horse sucked polos....... he was my horse of a lifetime....
 
the thing that really angers me is the fact she compared my mother to an alcoholic woman who buys unsuitable horses for her daughter. well Beth has met my mum all but two times? also she's in her 50's, and she's a head mistress. she would make her school children own up to their mistake and apologise, but she refuses to say sorry!!

and how can we be duped is we haven't spent any money on this horse?? it would be different if we had brought her but if this all goes wrong, ive got the option to give her back. we couldn't have done this more sensibly!!

ohhh people are odd!
