to want to slap the assistant in Super Drug

[IamNotYourLove]

for calling me "My love" every other sentence?

Do you want a bag my love.
Enter your pin my love.
Do you want a bottle of water for just 28p my love.

I am not your love.

I am an intelligent ,degree educated professional woman , who wirites for the national broadsheet newspapers, mid 40s, dressed in skinny jeans, converses, nice hair and Bobbi Brown slap.

I am not an old age pensioner who needs patronising.

You, on the other hand, looked no more than 24 and needed a slap.

OP are you liz jones?

I love people like that!

You on the other hand sound aggressive and a biatch...........

Chill out and get a life!

Now that I have read your full post I get it.

Frustrated, frustrated frustrated.

Who cares what kind of "intelligent", haha, so-called professional degree person you are. People like you who look your nose down on others are sad bags, frankly.

Would rather meet her than you ANY DAY in my life!!

They don't address me in that way in Fortnums. But they would frown at Converse.

God, please tell me which paper so I won't be buying it any more.

1 thing I hate more than anything is snobbery.

Is this what Mumsnet has lowered itself to?!. God get me out of here....

There's a thing. Does the op think that due to her choice of apparel and cosmetics that she ought to be treated differently. Actually that's pretty offensive.

I live in Canada. That would never in a million, squillion years happen here; if it did it would make my day . I think it's charming and lovely and you should feel proud to live in a country where people feel comfortable taking such liberties with strangers. YABU.

Rule I mean nobody likes being looked down on and it's never fair to see yourself as better that someone else. Because honestly, how can someone be better than someone else? I wasn't meaning to call anyone a name except that her attitude comes across as snobby or the general definition thereof.

Oh, I remember someone calling me "ducks" - loved that!

It just endears me to those people. So much more salt of the earth and REAL than snobbish people with their nose in the air...

OP are you in Wales or was she Welsh? I ask ask as my lovely friend is a girl 'from the valleys' & we use this a lot in our dialogue-her because this is a natural way of speaking & me because I just fucking love it!!

Find something else that is genuinely worth getting the arse on about.....

This is the funniest thread I have ever read through. DD wants to know what mummy is laughing at. Is 'cunting' a word?

Are you Liz Jones ;)

A minimum wage shop assistant who calls you 'my love' quite unconsciously & is pleasant to you; then gets slagged off on a public website FOR BEING NICE deserves to slap YOU.

Hope that helps.

I was in pound land earlier buying cheap stock cubes and tomato seeds and the shop assistant asked me how I was. Obviously I smashed a four pack of j20 over her had and called her a cocknob. I'm wearing a silver boob tube and purple loon pants btw.

Silver boob tubes are so twenty twelve. So that's all good then.

I saw my neighbour outside earlier on.

He said hello to me and commented what a lovely day it was.

Cheeky fucking bastard. Who the fuck does he think he is to try and engage in normal social interaction with me, oiling the wheels of life so we can rub along together in a more or less convivial way.

It made me want to smash his face in. He hadn't even blow dried his hair.

Luckily mine looked nice though. I'm wearing galoshes and a kagoule.

"Iv got a degree don't you know? I wear bobbi brown and converse don't you know?" Blah blah blah blah!

Haven't read all pages but op you have brightened up my dull sunday evening. You are a total snobshite! A word I just created for you!

Hilarious .

Are you in Bristol? It's normal to be addressed as "My Love" or "My Lover" by everyone. It's just normal, and the locals aren't going to change their normal modes of speech for anyone.

in our local shops you would be lucky to be called love its more like piss of you twat tbh. fyi no one cares what you're wearing, seriously! also the make-up bit pointless. you are really up yourself and you got a degree big whoop so have many people and they're not bothered being called love

love

Surely this has to go in Classics!

I don't care if we've been had, it's fricking hilarious.

I was in a right scabby mood earlier, now I'm papping all over the place!

People use cock all the time here, also lovey and duck.

My personal favorite though is my lover, best if said with a lovely south devon accent. Reminds me of childhood holidays, fishermen in the harbour selling fresh fish and boat rides, and the lady who worked in the ice cream kiosk on the prom.

Ah simpler times

But the op is clearly lying about her outfit. Surely her clothes are all made by Balmain and there's diamonds and pearls in her hair, yes there are.

OP where did you go to my LOVEly?

I wonder if it should be a rule that all AIBU topics should be accompanied by a description of what the op is/was wearing?

I'm sure it would help is get a better picture...

orrroight mush.... :)

(I'm wearing Tesco cropped leggings & a store 21 blue dress pish posh or what)
