Mary, Australia and Apologies
Hi
I know a lot of you don't like me and that's completely understandable but it has come to my attention just recently that there has been a complete misunderstanding regarding a conversation between myself and Mary in Australia.
I have been informed that fangirls seem to think I told Mary that bitchiness is rife in fandom and that I don't like you all...or something along those lines.
This is completely not the case and I am sorry if I didn't make it clear before.
The conversation between Mary and I, regarding a photo of her and I posed in a silly way, went like this:
Mary: Please don't post this online
Phoebe: Of course I wont
Mary: No please, seriously
Phoebe: I wouldn't, I don't even go online, online forums (as in general forums) can get nasty, so I stay away from them.
Mary: I know what you mean
Phoebe: You have no idea.
and that is all, literally that is everything that was said (of couse I can't remember the exact wording but it was along those lines and refered in NO way to the Mary fandom and Mary herself was drawing no reference to it).
I want you to know that I would NEVER ever ever say anything bad about anyone to Mary, it is neither my place nor my right and I in fact told Mary that all of you had wanted to come to Australia to see her but couldn't make it and say hi and have on numerous occasions thanked Mary for bringing fangirls together as I am sure all you have as well.
Anyway, as for my bitchy comments in the past, I was going through a horrible time in my life and some ppls reactions to my post, especially after I was begged by many to post a summary, made me upset and my politeness and maturity went out the door. For this I want to apologize, online I can come across as quite rude but those that know me in person will know that I try help people to the best of my abilities and I am both approachable and kind. However, I am straightforward and sometimes this is interpreted the wrong way. I am trying very hard to curb this behaviour.
Anyway, please accept my apologies and I hope that we can perhaps start afresh?
