Emotional rollercoaster

Last Friday I discovered that the CO of my old unit was continuing his smear campaign against me, attempting to prevent me from joining the new unit. He asked the "leader" of a local retired military group affiliated with the cadet program to call the CO of my new unit and request that my request to transfer be denied. My new CO waved off the request and said I was welcome to join. My CO then sent me an email informing me of the phone call. I then called the "leader" that had made the call and we had a less then pleasant conversation. Today I got an email from my CO informing me that my transfer was proceeding.

I have to learn that not everyone likes me and some will even try to hurt me. I cannot let these people win by becoming a victim. I must weather these attacks with less of an emotional meltdown.

I'm gradually learning that it's okay if people don't like me. You can't be a buddy to everyone...GaP
