Out of sheerest curiosity, are you doing anything practical to "fix" the situation?  

Yes.  It was/is quite important.  No details are forthcoming, however.

So you are capable of making decisions for yourself!  And you are capable of simply choosing what you do and do not say, without pointing fingers at other parties. Awesome!

Why not try that approach more often, instead of telling yourself that your actions are someone else's fault, hmm?
