So I am part of an organisation which gives me the opportunity to meet a lot of attractive young women. I have been involved in the group for quite some time, so have managed to become quite established within the group.
Unfortunately, this has also lead to significant backlash against me, particularly as there have been a growing number of guys who have realised this is a great way to meet girls and also joined up with the group. There has been a concentrated attempt to portray me as being a "sexual predator" within the group, mainly by:
a. Guys trying to eliminate the competition or who otherwise motivated by jealousy.
b. Women who are trying to increase their own social standing in the group.
Some members of the group even managed to convince one of the new members to file a formal complaint against me, to have me removed from my position. This failed, and these members were later removed for engaging in similar behaviour towards others but the complaint still remains and many of the members are told by others of my "bad reputation".
Annoyingly, this has recently lead to some of the newer female members to avoid me. What steps if any should I take to respond to this? Or should I simply accept this as part of being a successful member of a group and ignore it?
