to get slightly annoyed on MN at times by the general "perfectness" that is being displayed

[emkana]

Reading through threads I get a bit fed up sometimes because it seems that everybody on MN seems to have the oh so perfect life - a rich and varied social life, a fantastic relationship with dh/dp with meaningful conversations over a bottle of wine several nights a week, plenty of stimulating activities with the children, fresh, organic, healthy food of course, reading high-quality books...

and so on and so on...

am I just in a bad mood today?

Ha, ha, ha, ha.... (Dottydot laughing hysterically at the thought)

You are in a bad mood I suspect......

lol that certainly isnt me!

we are all lazy slatterns really

Just putting on a perfect front so we don't get found out as being lazy slatterns!

You didn't see the crisp sandwich thread then

I could share with you that dd was grumpy and cried alllllllll day

Nope, I read some posts and feel 100% grateful for what I have. It may not be perfect but compared to what others have to deal with, it's fab!

everybody, really

would it make you feel better if i said my dd was a nightmare, i have no money and my job is crap?

i have meaningful conversations with myself over a bottle of wine too...and my tooth hurts.

lol perfectness really....not for me

no social life except visits to Kew Gardens with DS, no DP, no wine, no books (too tired) will admit to some organic food... stalk me around the threads you will feel much better!

i'm a lazy cow and neglect my poor boy in order to come on mn!!

Spot on, apart from my fab job aswell.

But, yes I am perfect.

Emkana, this is like a driftnet approach to critisising people. Absolutely anyone could find themselves caught up in your net.

My lifes not perfect just a bit of everything 'in moderation'

lol. I nearly posted a thread like this the other day after a spate of "am I being unrerasonable to expect everyone else to be as perfect as I am" threads.

I do have the wine several nights a week though.

I think that is the point Spidermama

I saw a post from Cod the other evening saying the majority of MNers are overwieght despressives, so I think it depends what mood you're in.

The best thing about mn is that whatever mood you're in you can generally find someone else who feels the same!

emkana - I am the opposite - I cannot bleive some of the crap some people on MN put up with

actually I do not believe some of the crap some people put up with. praps I'm cynical.
