sounds like a total jerk - random, but i totally broke out in hives the other week (not a common thing) and i can only attribute it to stress. :( chin up!

OMG! That is so insane and vicious! So sorry you experienced that.. I really can't believe stuff like that actually happens, but I guess it does.

Don't get too down on yourself, because you'll only be letting the negative people in your life win. Don't give them that power. You have an amazing business and it will continue to grow into something even more amazing!

I have a theory that good and bad things happen in clusters, or like all at the same time. Seems like this is happening to you, but the good stuff will happen all at once too. You'll see.

Keep your head up girl!

Quite simply, and quite frankly, I really appreciate this post. Not because you were/are going through the ringer, but precisely because it's personal and it takes courage to let that out which in turns brings us closer to you. So here's a "virtual hug". :)

Just wanted to share with you that I truly feel I know your pain. A friend once told me life was like the ocean; things come in waves as mentioned above. Some days dealing with my condition is ever expending & it's all I can do to get out of bed & list one item on Etsy. and I too think "Why me God?"
But I know now that we all are here to serve a purpose & it's up to us to shape our experiences into a positive light.

know you are thought well of & admired~

Like stated above & I say it all the time "don't give anyone your power"! You worked at this blog & your business. Chin up girl your wave of happiness is coming & you need to see it when it does:)
hugs & kisses

What an asshole, why would he hit you below the belt like that? I'm glad you had yourself the needed good cry and now you're doing your own thang. So glad you got things back going. Hope you're feeling better.

Stay strong, sweet thing!!! Like my mom always says, "Living well is the best revenge." Stay healthy, stay busy and keep moving forward.

Kisses and huge hugs!!

Awww that sounds horrible. But happy to hear you are doing better! :)

oh no what a loser!!! how frustrating for you - i loved your site!! keep at it and dont let it get to you...its what he would want...nasty!((hugs))

...But your back, so keep on going honey it will get better and your doing really well in your life. Take care of yourself and we are all here if you need to let of some steam. Have a bloody wonderful week darling. ax

Oh honey, what a complete and utter shit, I can't believe some humans!!! GEEZ! How completely selfish! I am glad you appear to have fixed your website problems! I hope you continue to revive and get better in all other areas too! lots of love from Scotland Zoë xxx

Oh I just realized your website isn't working again, you have your etsy up though! Damn, I hope you get that fixed soon sweetheart! x

There's a saying I've read that says "learn to live like the lotus, untouched by filthy water." You seem like a talented, amazing person, so don't let all of your ex's filthy water get you down! Just get your lotus on! Best of luck <3

Oh no! I dont even know you but I have been there girl.
Living Well is the Best Form of Revenge. You keep getting on that horse and being your awesome self, hives or no hives and let people be there own demise.

I've been through a lot of horrible breakups, too, so I feel your pain! I'm sorry you're going through an ugly time. It sucks. It really does.

One thing I've learned, though, is that when people do shitty things (and taking away your domains is definitely an incredibly shitty thing to do) they are usually trying to communicate with you. Either communication has broken down between you two so much that he doesn't know how else to reach you, or he doesn't know how to communicate well in the first place. It could be a combination of both. Like you calling him a "sad little man" -- it's a way to get through to him instead of just working things out rationally.

I think it might do you both some good to talk about why he's doing these things and to figure out how to resolve it because serious breakups could have lasting negative effects for months... years... believe me, I know it! It'll bleed into your future relationships if you don't resolve issues, bury it, and stick a little cross into the dirt.

There's always two sides of the story so maybe he's got some real beef with you similar to how you have some legit beef with him. Be strong, tackle it head on, move on with your life, and keep that gorgeous head up, lady. It's going to be better from here on out. :)

(Also, try some pure aloe on the hives! It helps with mine.)

Hi! Found your blog because of my love for all things vintage.. and then I read this post and thought wow! I went through the same crap! Except he drained my bank account instead of websites. And hives are most certainly due to stress- they've only shown up on me during some messed up times. Did you get benadryl shots? Those worked for me.

So hopefully by now you've regained some strength and feel better. But don't feel any regret about him. People who do maniacal stuff like that are people you do not want around. Besos!

You are a long time inspiration/ role model of mine! I've been following your blog since you were in San Diego and even though I don't know you personally it's been amazing seeing your business grow. And you deserve nothing but the best and to be with someone who supports your work. Keep up the good work Rodelle. =) xo

My heart goes out to you and thank you for sharing your life & thoughts here! I'm assuming you doing much better as this was posted weeks ago now. btw I'm not sure if you keep up your Flickr acct. but I use to follow your photostream there. All my best <3
