Have been scouring this section looking for someone with this "problem"... I feel a bit daft posting this as it is SO trivial compared to the women on here with ACTUAL problems...
...But, is it just me, it is the world peppered with horrible people? Over the course of the past week I have had three encounters with people from my past that I don't want to speak with as they are simply not nice. Ok, one was via FB. I blocked someone from school who ditched me as a friend when she had come back from the summer hols one year & had reinvented herself. Although I've blocked her, lots of people were posting stuff about her and her amazing career on FB. Good for her if she's doing well in life, but seeing her name all over FB only reminded me how mean she'd been to me in school. Over the weekend I also saw two unrelated people from my uni days - one very cliquey and far too cool to be friends with me, in spite of our friends in common at the time. Another whose values were v out of line & who I felt I couldn't be friends with. My response? I ignore these people, and they ignore me back. Bit awkward with the latter one as it was on a night out with colleagues. I toyed with the idea of being the bigger person & saying hi to her, but by this time it was clear she was ignoring me just as hard!
Today, a woman at one of my kids' clubs (another parent) made a very sarcastic / cutting comment when I knocked into her child, and would not accept my apology. I reasoned she was prob having an off day, but later saw her sat in her little clique and she certainly seemed to be having a great time with them... I know I should brush it off as it was an impulsive comment, but I can't stop thinking about it...
Do other people have weird situations like this? Is this not a bit primary school? Why can't we all live in harmony, man?
