ok theres someone i know, how is a total moaner.
moans about everything in life and is like a life sucking parasite

anyway, last week she was moaning about some other mums that where telling another mum how fabulous her skirt was.
she was moaning that the skirt was horrible.
i think it was the fact these woman where over using the term fabulous
in her opinion

i don't care what people wear, they can wear a tracksuit or be dolled up to the nines, makes no odds to me, as long as they are happy

but this person, seems to have a thing about people dressing up, basically she hates it

i will be seeing this person next week, shes someone i can get away from iyswim.

and i've got a real urge to really wear something WOW!
is that really childish?
and should i?

Gosh no, you must do it.
And to point out the bleeding obvious, she obviously has a very bad case of the green eyed monster

SixtyFootDoll · 03/02/2010 21:43

Do it!
people like that woman annoy me so much with their petty jealousy
If someone looks fab well good for them!
If they dont, so what?

SixtyFootDoll · 03/02/2010 21:44

In fact there are a few like this at my school

You so have to dress up for this woman

butadream · 03/02/2010 22:30

Oh yes, obviously you need to dress up for this woman.

sungirltan · 03/02/2010 22:36

do it!

CarrieDaBabi · 03/02/2010 23:34

would it be lowering myself down to her level though?

No you must do it but most importantly you must moan about what a terrible morning you had, no time to get ready, just chucked on some clothes and dashed out

misshardbroom · 04/02/2010 11:11

I would most definitely dress up.

Has she nothing more important to moan about?

Anyway, I have to admit I do this all the time. I have an (ex)friend who I do still have to see on occasion due to mutual friends. She spent the first 10 years that I knew her patronising me completely, to the point that when my DD was a baby I felt that she had totally taken the shine off my happy little family. Whenever I know I'm going to see her, I always dress to the nines. Makes me feel better, I don't much care what it does for her
