I’m usually thoughtful and a bit of a people pleaser if anything, this extends to driving. I always give way to the point of being a pushover, always wave thanks when someone occasionally lets me go first, I’d give up a space to someone else rather than get in an argument every time.
But today for some inexplicable reason I parked like a complete twat at school. I wasn’t blocking the gates or anyone’s drive, in fact was quite far from the school but I was overlapping onto a small estate junction very slightly and a bit far from the kerb. I got out and saw it was shite parking but carried on my way hoping it would be fine. I had time to move and there were other places to go, but I didn’t. When I got back a 4x4 with 2 blokes in was struggling to turn and almost stuck, partly due to my car and a few other cars were queued behind. They didn’t say anything but were glaring. I got out of the way and that was that but I just feel guilty about it now and like I embarrassed myself. Worried other school parents will have seen and think I’m one of those selfish twats. Also don’t want my daughter to think being selfish is the norm..
Anyway whilst I’m overthinking and spiralling, is anyone else brave enough to share the time that they were a twat?!
