How would you react with false accusations?

Most of the time, we always try to do the right thing, but sometimes people think in a different way. All of us are entitled to think what is right for us. Today my cousin accused me of sending a negative text to our niece, I was shocked! I talked to them and the truth came out that it was from my other niece and not from me, so she just misunderstood our niece story. Instead of saying sorry to me for her false accusations, she got mad and insisted that it was me. Her sister said that maybe she couldn’t accept that she was wrong and couldn’t admit it to herself so she needs to pretend that what she thought is real. For that reason, I just kept quiet because I know that I didn’t do anything wrong to others. Justifying myself is nonsense if she’s close-minded. How did I react? I just ignored her, blocked her from FB and stay away from fights and drama, I need to be at peace with myself and stay out of the conflict. Have you ever experienced false allegation? How did you react?

Oh, well, my mom got mad so much after she heard about what happened, I guess I couldn't blame you if you would feel that. I felt mad at first but controlled myself in the end. :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

@Janet357 I'm sorry to hear that, I know how it feels.. I felt terrible and I felt like I'm gonna explode! LOL! But I learned a lot from my partner on how to deal with anger and control my temper when I'm in a crazy situation like that.

More is learned around Drama than at any other time. Instead of avoiding her, you should make her your Best Friend. Look how much you could teach her. There are so many things she is afraid of or unable to deal with. Be the Rock she can hold onto.. Communication is key in all relationships. When you bring Truth out in the open in every case, people will get to know you as truth. Rumors and talk will wash over your friends back until you can bring light to the truth.

It depends on where or who it is coming from. People who know me better wont believe anyway because they know me better.

Yes it's sad because she's a relative of mine.. And your response is acceptable, I guess normally we will react in an angry manner because we are being accused but because I know now how to control my temper I just chose to stay away. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.. :)

If you know that further discussions lead nowhere, what you did was the best solution.
