I've seen this topic pop up occasionally on the MMM forums, but the first time I've seen it on Dear Abby.

Wish there was some way to reach out to the reader and welcome her to the MMM community...

ETA: the comments section is particularly nasty on this article.  People can be such jerks.

Someone commented and pointed her towards MMM's website. Yay!

I just can't believe the vitriol in those comments, no wonder she's feeling anxious.

Yeah, talk about the comments confirming her fears that people will be nasty to her for having done a lot of things right in her life.

people need to be less concerned with what other people think.  It's an immediate bullshit meter.

how so?  Are you implying that if a person is preoccupied with what other people think of them they aren't telling the truth?
