hey girls - give me your opinion on this.
I have this acquaintance at school who complains about her ex a lot. It wouldnt bother me except shes in her 30s - her ex is in his 40s - but she complains about him the way we all complained about boys in high school.. ''So blabla texted me yesterday.. he said he loved me and missed me... And I said..'' ''So blabla emailed me Monday night and all he said was hey whats up - what a jerk right?'' I tried to give her positive honest feed back (Im the kind of person who tells it as it is) But she doesnt want to hear it. She says she has anxiety from this breakup (happened late October) and shes depressed. She says shes not interested in dating and she ''hates men''. Shes really digging herself into a huge spinster with a man complex hole.. but obviously she doesnt see that.
I only have a couple classes with her but its gotten on my serious nerves between the beginning of the semester and now. Shes also negative, and sarcastic, and very competitive to the point where she''ll comment on my status on face book if it has something to do with homework and give me an update on her home workOur projects are creatively driven but they also come down to finding good product to put in our design and good innovative materials/designs. It does get competitive but usually in a friendly nature - the way she makes me feel about it again reminds me of high school.
Today I was a little colder to her in class. She complained to the girl next to me about her ex and I kept doing my work. I''m not sure how else to handle this. I feel like shes an older bully yet she wants me to lend an ear whenever she needs it. I cant really avoid her since we have two classes together.. insight??
That''s exactly what I do! I buy large tops and small bottoms. Did I also mention that I have no butt? All of my friends make fun of my flat butt.Date: 3/5/2009 8:03:17 AM

SailorsSweet<3, that''s why I love swimsuits sold in separates. Although I feel a little weird buying a small on the bottom and a large on the top...just have to remind myself that it''s the fit models that aren''t proportional
p.s. your wedding date is my birthday!

Frankly, I would just avoid her. Sit at the opposite side of the class, keep conversations short, only talk about school-related topics. It doesn''t sound like you have a friendly bond with her, so would it be so bad to give her the cold shoulder? If she''s just using you as a sounding board and not treating you like an actual friend, then you don''t have any obligation to her and if you don''t want to be around her then you don''t have to be.
Hmmm...see, that''s how you and I differ. When it''s warranted, I have no problem being a complete b*tch!Date: 3/5/2009 11:19:21 PM

We''re in a group for a group project!! haha - I talked to one of my other classmates today and she was surprised that said girl and I have no friendly bond prior to this semester - thats how clingy the girl is. I''m dealing with it though, not bringing up her ex and giving her sarcasm back if she gives it to me. I''m not a mean person and I''ve emailed SO about it and he said he just feels like shes in a hard place in her life right now, of course hes right. That man is my saving grace - you know the cliche about being a better person for your love? I definitely have been progressively coming a better person because of him and we''re not even in the same country at the moment.Thanks for your advice though girls - PS is also making me a better person. Maybe I should marry you girls? hehe

Boys are great at giving girls a different, more laidback perspective. They don't let things bother them as much as we do. I don't know how they do it but I always check in with D to make sure I'm not being totally crazy about something and he can always diffuse the situation.
SS...you and your SO sound like such a great pair. Is it May already?!?!
It's not that. It's just that thread of mine has kind of got me thinking everyone has me all wrong and it's bothering me...I feel like the original post was completely understandable. Why can't a girl want something in the future and plan for it (but then try to just think about today instead of the future because its gone into overload) without being questioned about her long term relationship and thoughts? Sorta makes me not even want to be here...Date: 3/6/2009 12:38:19 PM

68 More days til he comes homeHehe - then the excitement of ''when'' will set in. I''ll be a true LIW
You know, you may just be right. Let's place the blame on Spring Fever. Very clever equestrienne
