This is a RANT, feel free to not read...
I'm really trying hard not to be judge-y but as I get older I notice more things that I used to...I guess ignore. I used to let people (family mostly) get away with the rude or nosy or inappropriate comments but lately it seems to bug me...A LOT.
For instance on Christmas I was wishing someone Merry Christmas. They asked "so what did you get from your husband?" I told them (very excitedly). I expected:
"Oh that's so cool!"
"Oh wow, I've been wanting one of those"
"How do you like it so far"
Something of that nature...said with enthusiasm.
Instead I got "Did you even want that?". I...um....what?!? "Did you ask for THAT?" *Said in the most serious tone*
What on Earth...why does that matter?!? If you must know I didn't "ask" for anything. So I just said "uh...yea...I mean yea I want it."
The response...."oh, just checking because you've never mentioned it and I didn't know he was going to get you one. Did you give him something equally expensive?"
I'm sorry...what?!?! That is not... wow! So what YOU were going to get it for me...? I highly doubt that. Or do you think he spent to much on little old me? Am I not deserving of such a 'lavish' gift...from my HUSBAND? I just found this extremely rude. That is rude...right? Is this some sort of jealousy? I'm being serious...because I honestly have no idea what to think. And no it was not his family or a friend...it was MY FAMILY.
So to answer the "why don't you come around as much?" question...this is f**king why! This is why NONE OF US come around as much. I'm still shocked 3 out of 4 of us turned out semi-normal. Keep your drama...we had enough of it growing up. *geesh*
