your word is good for nothing

Victim mentality, walking with an imaginary tail tucked between your legs, as you should be.

But you are not the one who is hurting. 

I wish you could be. You told me 

to take your word for it. 

All you cared about was your reputation. 

You were bothered by the prospect of being ganged up on. 

Now, look at what is unfurling, thanks to what you claimed to be untrue.

This is happening because of you.
