Rude woman

[Namechanged999999]

I doubt that anyone will have anything to add to this. Anyway.

i took up golf recently. I parked and went to the course and hit a ball that went into the trees and ball was lost. I was kicking myself as all my spare balls were in the car. I went back to the car to get more. This woman got out of her car in front of mine and laughed openly at me. You didn’t stay there long. Apparently she was in her car waiting to go for the train so had saw me going to the course and coming back 10 mins later. I didn’t engage. I got some more ball put them in trolley and headed back down. She started shouting omg she’s heading back and laughing literally uproariously. I just ignored her and went on my way.

My Aibu is that i hear this in my head and dream of going back to her and whacking her around the legs with a golf club. At least i should have said something to her? Her loud laughter at me really rankles.

Just because you would react differently, it doesn't mean she is overreacting. Your reactions are not the frame of reference; her feelings are as valid as yours.

forget about it and don't let her invade your head space any more....she sounds quite mental

OMG I would be just the same as you! You did exactly what I would have done, just ignore and walk away - but later I would replay it all in my head and come up with some brilliant 'one-liners' and other ideas for what I 'could' have said. I'd also secretly want to whack the b*ch around the legs too 😂You are perfectly normal and very much like many of us. Laugh about it and try to forget now, you've dwelled on it long enough. Maybe also look up 'EMDR' and other self-help techniques for getting some locked in or recurrent thoughts out of your mind. Big hugs x
