Hey everyone,
I posted this in Singles but there are so many wise, Godly people here that I thought maybe someone could give me some advice on how to handle something like this.

I am discouraged beyond belief.
I was transferred to another job, and I just found out one of the guys at my old job is telling everyone he slept with me.
Nothing could be further from the truth. We never even talked once outside work. We didn't even have each others' numbers. The only time I socialized with anyone outside of work was for lunches with a female co-worker or my boss (he would take us out sometimes to treat us as his team.) I'm the most boring person in the world, and I never go to clubs or parties. And, I'm not even there anymore.
At first, I was uncontrollably angry. And then I just felt like God was saying to give it to Him. I'm going through a lot, so many things at once, and this was the straw that broke the camel's back. A long time ago I wrote a thread about sexual harassment and used a "character" who was "going through" something... Several people were critical because they said I didn't include enough information or that the main character in they story was probably misinterpreting or exaggerating.
I explained that I wrote the thread because this is EXACTLY how it happens--little by little--and you question your sanity and what happened and wonder if it's even making a fuss over. Apparently no one realized that the "character" in the story was me.
The thing that upsets me most is that this guy was the only one on the night crew whom I DIDN'T think was like that at all. I used to stop and ask him about his kids because out of all the guys I worked with, he seemed "safest" to at least say hi to.
The hardest part of all is that I'm telling myself, "Just shake it off. Shut down, shut up, and don't let it out , because it has no place to go. Don't talk to anyone, and whatever you do, don't trust anyone ever again." But oddly enough, I know I still will.
I just always have, no matter what's happened.
Along with everything else... I am down and out to the nth degree right now and not quite sure how to pull out of it.
Sorry for venting... I know this is probably too personal to be posting but I feel like I've hit the very bottom of the pit of despair, with a smile on my face for show, a mind that never rests because I never sleep anymore, and a life that resembles automation more than living because all there is to do, always, is get up and go to work.
As I said, there are so many Godly people here, I would be grateful for any kind of advice. I've already asked God to help me forgive, bless the perpetrator, and move on. But for some reason, I just feel absolutely shot through the heart.

. I was thinking about all the rumors that surrounded Jesus his entire life, seeing as people knew that Joseph wasn't his father and probably didn't exactly believe that his real father was God!
Obviously, Jesus went through his share of false rumors and so I know He'll help me through, too.
Thank you again and God bless.

Today I had received a phone call back from a position that I applied for at a very recognizable company and the individual who I was talking to made a disgusting joke after I asked him what we were supposed to wear for the interview
he then made a joke about not wearing clothes and then saying that business casual was okay.
I am not happy about going into my interview.
I am sick of being around stoners at work.

In the end though God knows the truth and any issues that need to be straightened out rest assured this guy will be answering to God about this falsehood. I know when I really want to get even or rally my cause I try to stop and think that it will be handled in the end and each one of us have to answer to God for the things we have done. I know I personally have failed and will have my things to answer for, but somehow it makes me feel better knowing when I have been wronged or accused wrongly that the other person is going to have to answer for their issues too.
Don't know if it helps at all...
The other thing I do is write a letter to the person stating exactly how I feel and what I'd like to say to them nice or not but the trick of the letter in the end is that it ends up in the trash....I use it as therapy knowing I told them everything I wanted to not holding anything back but in reality they never read it and my anger and frustration at least got out onto paper. Don't know if something like this would work for you but it has worked for me without causing any angst in the real people world... Let me tell you on that paper I really let loose saying anything I would really like to say to the person.... the trash can doesn't care or tell....
I am really frustrated right now because I can't get into my Facebook account.... I don't know if someone else has hijacked it or what and I am not tech savvy enough to know what to do. I redid the password but now it is saying something about malware and I don't know....
It means I have lost contact with my family....Blond is not a happy camper right now...

Shoot! We got airboats 'n' gators up here...............I wanna see the Keys!
Warm..........WARM...........WARM.......WARM KEYS! :
Many decades ago, I actually made it to the swamp south of Miami, but never to the Keys...... sigh......
I wonder what it would be like to be "Homeless in the Keys?"
Hmm
