I'm a firm believer in communication -- but that's for myself. Everyone is different, and that's not even getting into circumstances. I have had my feelings hurt OOC before, and the first thing I tried to do was to communicate with the person involved to find out why things had happened the way they did.Â
That may not work for every situation -- what if the offending party/parties are being deliberately malicious? In that case, distance is my go-to. Even then, communication comes up, since I usually confide my feelings in someone I trust (usually someone IRL) to gain some perspective, get things off my chest and maybe get a little advice.
I hope you feel better and whatever has been bothering you is resolved in as peaceful a manner as possible.
