Sooo important to keep ourselves protected from the “shots fired” when people who have behaved in cruel, inappropriate ways recognise themselves in someone’s writing and want to sue. I don’t know where I read it, but somewhere I read a quote something like “if you don’t like reading about yourself behaving badly in someone’s story, maybe you should have behaved better?”
The onus is on THEM for what they did or said. I like that.
I’m sad you had to go through that 😔
