What is going on here? On two separate occasions 2 women who I thought were being kind and we got on well completely cut me off.

  1. Someone I worked with. They are known in the workplace for being overly helpful and accommodating. They do charity work and pride themselves on being fair etc. One conversation one day with others and I simply didn’t agree with one of the discussions. Nothing major I just had a different perspective, not negating hers but offered mine. That was is, never spoke to me at work for years.

  2. My mother in law. We were absolutely fine until my daughter was born (or so I thought). She offered me her thoughts about how I should do things, like who changes the nappy, which milk. I kindly said I had my own thoughts, I’d like to do it this way. Then again I’m being totally ignored. She is another pillar of the community, charity work, most people like her. She can barely acknowledge me anymore. It seems ridiculous, I don’t mind opinions at all and I take up the ideas I like.

I think you are having a better Christmas than most people, sounds like you are making the most of every moment. I love that, enjoy!

I love Christmas. There was a Christmas drag show I wanted to see too but in the end I couldn't be arsed with the hour's drive to get there.
