A chick is going on the outing tomorrow who I am not thrilled about seeing. On one hand I feel kind of growly about having to deal with her. On the other hand seeing for myself how isolating being a parent can be I don’t want to deny her the opportunity to meet new people.
HAVING COMPASSION IS REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING.
wanna be selfish. damnit.
Sometimes having a conscience is a real inconvenient pain in the ass.
if it’s me, tell me. I can take it.
It’s totally you. You drive me completely nuts.
Was that sufficiently sarcastic? Now I’m insecure. Of course it’s not you. I invite you to my house repeatedly–that’s a big deal in my little world. 🙂
I enjoyed the outing yesterday. Thanks for organizing it.
I wanna be selfish too. One of the moms I know doesn’t drive, so whenever I invite her places I end up giving her a ride, and then go home early when her daughter needs to nap or suffer her daughter melting down. But I have to invite her places because she’s my friend. No fair.
I want life to be fair! Well, at least to me. 😉
You are creating an opportunity for a meet-&-greet. That does not make you responsible for everyone who comes along. I don’t believe you developed the idea of these outings in order to like every single person who attends. You posted the annoucement publicly and cast the net widely. I think it’s a given you aren’t going to like or sync up with absolutely everyone. That’s okay. They’re coming along to met Other People, not Just You.
Due to a series of difficult circumstances she is mainly going for Noah, which means I will have to deal with her a lot. She is one of his old college friends and she has social anxiety issues and we are driving her even though I don’t wanna.
And this will be screened cause I’m not trying to poison this pool, just whine a little. 🙂
