I mean, come on...she steals my art and my identity and she is the one who isults me and makes me feel like a pile of garbage ? That's it, right there. She feels like a pile of garbage, herself. She uses your art and your identity because she's so very unhappy with her own. She pretended to be you so that she could have people praise her, and she's so screwed up that it doesn't matter that the praise wasn't earned. Pretty pathetic, really. Most art thieves don't go to these lengths, but they will steal stuff to make themselves look "cool" (look how many images I stole! Aren't I cool?!), and to gain status amongst their equally pathetic peers and so on. And some people who do it are just genuinely ignorant and/or stupid, of course, but those are the people who will also pretend to be you in order to get some sense of identity. I'm sorry you had to deal with this sort of person. I've had my share of dealing with people like that (not the specific situation you've experienced, but the same sort of person, anyway), and it's definitely NOT fun. bonni
