'Fall guy'

Post Reply New Topic

I'm so sick of being blamed, yes I mess things up and I try to look that reality squarely in the eye, but am I completely to blame? No, nothing is that clear cut. Why do other people always take the easy way out? I?m so tired of being the fall guy because I admit my mistakes, i don?t know how to be any other way. Is it me, is my passiveness and non filtered words enabling people to scapegoat me?

I know how you feel; just because some was your fault doesn't mean the whole thing was or that some other stuff was too. For me, it was people blaming me, but not due to me admitting anything... my mom would blame me for the whole argument by pointing out that my Asperger's was to blame, and that she was blameless.

Are you talking about being blamed at work?

There are people in the workplace who spend all day trying to blame things on others

It?s a general relationship rant, I?m facing up to some stuff and feeling sorry for myself.
