Rant Thread

That sucks Castile. My boss made an employee come to work sick. Guess what, she had Covid. Now we have a second employee being tested. Yay for un-necessary exposure. :/ And if I get it, my house won;' get fixed anytime soon (flood just before Christmas).

Do you ever get sick of being the "bigger person" and having to put up with shitty behaviour because "its just the way they are"?

I have to go to this daytrip thing with my in laws for SIL birthday (they all forgot mine until the day after/4 days later btw) and It makes me very anxious as they always either put me down or make me feel inadequate in some way. SIL does it because she obviously has no self esteem so putting me down makes herself feel better and MIL is just rude because ill never be good enough for her fav son. Now my mum is mates with her I'm told I'm just making a big deal out of it and "she doesn't know she's doing it" and "she's a good person deep down". I don't actually care I don't see why I should feel this way and never get an apology (my husband gets the apology because its him they care about not me). I just feel so alone now and that I'll have no one on my side next time they say mean shit to my face. Sorry for the long rant.

No Castile, you should not have to put up with that stuff; not when it's been pointed out to them and they're aware it's an issue. It's on _them_ to improve _their_ behaviour, not on you to accept it. And if they're not willing to adjust how they act, then it's perfectly reasonable for you to not engage with them at all.

That's absolutely shit, and no you shouldn't have to put up with it. I mean, everyone has to put up with some strange behaviour in relatives for the sake of peaceful interaction, but what you're describing is abusive and completely out of order. And your husband should be defening you on this. I'm sorry you're having to deal with this shit

[JoanMetcalfe]

No need to put up with it, just a little pride! I sincerely sympathize with you and wish you a little courage in this!!

[Castile]

And your husband should be defending you on this. I'm sorry you're having to deal with this shit

Thanks all. He does defend me but its always after the fact and they never do it in front of him. So far I don't leave his side at things I have to attend so if they say anything he's there. Last time they did it he got up to order/pay and then they had a crack. I'm more concerned with this outing as its on an island and I can't just say I want to go if they do anything. I was also really upset my mum seemed more concerned about her friendship with MIL than she did about believing me - especially since they didn't even care she existed for past 14 odd years! I'm just abit over justifying why they upset me to everyone.

To the lv50 dark iron dwarf hunter who griefed me, I hope you're happy. I hope you're so damn pleased with the timing you got, flying in just in time to see Arcturis spawn in front of me, watching me start to tame him and then killing him at the last possible second. You people are the scum of the earth and make me ashamed of playing my class. I hope you get as good as you gave you inconsiderate child.

My best friend woke up this morning to go to the bathroom. Her bit orange British Shorthair was laying in the doorway. She thought he was sleeping but he was dead se have had the pleasure of catsitting him a few times so I can feel it in my heart too. He almost Got to be 15 so he had a long good life where he was loved. Still sad though..

Goodbuy my friends cat which I felt was half mine.. the pictures is from one of our catsitting times

[Dewclaw]

Aww I'm so sorry. it hurts to lose our furry friends. They are family.

[Maria]

they are indeed.. and he was not even my cat...

[GormanGhaste]

So sorry I remember thinking how sweet he looked when you first posted pictures of him.

[Wain]

Oh I'm sorry to hear that

It sounds like he went peacefully, but his loss will still be hard

[Valnaaros]

I am so sorry, Maria
