In the fact, people will say things online they would never say face to face. It's not much. Mean is mean.

It's also possible, though I don't know the situation, it wasn't said with the malice that came across. Maybe it was said with a laugh and a smile like someone caught by a friend. (Hard to try to explain what I mean hear without being able to put a voice to it.)

Regardless, I am sorry you were so hurt. Kindness costs nothing. It would be a much better world if we all strived to be kinder.

(Aside- spell check for both my phone and DU said strived isn't a word. Wth?)
