This same thing happened to me. I for one think that you should continue in what you love doing. I dont know this other person and I dont want to hurt or step on her toes either for saying this. but you two are prob not the only ones making these the same way. Im sure there are people all over the world making them. If you stop making them your putting what you love doing on hold because of someone else. its not right or fair. I know what you are going through and how you feel. I too have been there and stop doing what I loved doing because I didnt want to make anyone mad, upset or hurt. but then it only left me hurt. KWIM?
To make a long story short and I wont name this other person,because I dont want to start trouble. and I like them a lot.but Im sure if they read this they will know it was them. I made some thing that another member makes not the same way or any thing but basicaly the same thing and I gave it as a gift. well after that I got a few pm's and a few not so happy emails of how wrong I was and so on.because they to make these and I was more or less taking their bussiness. I wasnt I gave it as a gift. It hurt me to think that this person was upset with me, and I so wanted to start a small bussiness some day wanting to sell these items. I do sell them to my friends and family but selling them on the net would bring in more money.I even had some made up and my web page made. I needed the extra money so very much. I have been out of work because of my back and theres no way I can ever go back to work , so this was a way of helping my husband bring in a little money to help him on the bills, food etc. But after the emails, I thought well if this member thinks this way then maybe so many others will too , I cried for two days and and told my Hubby that I was not going to sell my stuff on line. I feel I had gave up in helping my hubby. and I still feel bad about it because with a bad back theres not a whiole lot I can do. Hubby told me to do what i want but I should never give up my dreams because it made someone mad and that I would regret it, and I do.
sorry this is so long But before making a decision to stop doing what you love doing because of it making someone else mad. and prob someone you really dont know only on YT someone youll never meet. dont give up your dreams and plans for anyone, Like I did, |
