I am relieved!
After much deliberation & thought, I decided to exit the Whatsapp Group that was created by one of my classmates in school.
I had been part of this group for quite a while and was shocked at how behaviors of some of the group members (yes, yes, they were my classmates in school!) were anything but inclusive. Rather than collecting birthdays of all members in the group and having a practice of wishing all of us, there were selective birthday greetings - often based on the current status of that individual!
The Whatsapp group almost resembled like an elitist group where people who were (supposedly) globe trotters exchanged greetings, wishes and shared the success stories of their children with wahs wahs from other members. Shockingly, the accolades were also given selectively.
