I assure you, you have nothing to fear from any of us while enjoying an EATS event. We don't allow any unpleasantness at our tables. Please reconsider and join us one night. I can't promise you a restaurant that is alcohol free but I can promise you that none of us will ever allow you to backslide or do anything that you will be ashamed of later unless you are shamed by being in our presence. EATS just a wonderful opportunity to see us all at our best! And you don't find that sincere, warm and inviting??? You're the one who degenerated into nastiness for some unknown reason. Do you fear these folks or dislike them? Just let us know so we'll know how to proceed with your perhaps real self. Right now, you've not only been invited, but assured of a pleasant, non-judgemental and I'll go so far as to say, accommodating welcome at any table which seats the EATS. And all you can fall back on are Jenny Craig comments and admonishments that we'd give our own kids should they behave so rudely. Sorry.
We're not kidding anyone. We've come to know each other outside this board; breaking bread with someone is a great way to share - something about communion and all that - so we're not kidding anybody and I think I can speak for this particular group of women who really did try ONE MORE TIME to extend an honest hand in peace, the invitation probably no longer stands.
You've proven yourself to be mean spirited in the face of kindness and rude in the face of civility. I think I'd not really want to share my table with you. I send my children from the table when they act this way and don't allow them to join the fellowship of a dinner shared until they can act more appropriately; I'd not allow you any further latitude for bad behavior than I would them.
