hello @outlander @Shaz51
I just read about your experience in the paddock.
Those females are toxic. You are far better than them.
Try not to let them upset you because you are worth far more. I do know it is hard as I am a sensitive person too. I now realise though half of the stuff I used to be upset about, imagining so many people disliking me was actually all in my head. They just had their own insecurities.
We never know what another person is thinking and therefore not worth trying to guess. More important to think about what we are enjoying. So enjoy the special time with your horse and hold your head up high, relaxed smile on your face as you ride off. Dont change what you are doing for others who are not important.
You spread much joy and love on this site so remind yourself of that and be proud xx
There is a good cartoon on Jacques quotes thread I think which demonstrates what I have said above.
Check it out. I will see if I can find it again myself.
