In which I feel like…
I feel like I go out of my way, fall all over myself, to make sure I can accommodate my friends and support them and go to all the things they want me to go to and do everything they want.
Recently, I just feel jerked around. I’m busier than your average bear and don’t have time to be passive-aggressive or wishy-washy or…well…rude. If I’m rude, it’s because I’m intending to be. Because you’ve pissed me off. I don’t understand how people are SO RUDE without meaning to be. Also, SO CLASSLESS.
My absolute biggest pet peeve is people who don’t RSVP – were you raised by wolves?? Fucking let people know if you’re going. Facebook has even provided a “maybe” button for you, if you’re one of those people who can never make up their goddamned mind – which is in itself annoying. Thanks.
The older I get, the harder I find it to force friendships and ignore the fact that I can’t stand how the person operates. My personality is just too strong…can’t help it, Lady Gaga says I was born this way.
I DON’T HAVE TIME TO BE JERKED AROUND, LIED TO, NOT RESPONDED TO, ETC. Especially by my “friends.” Time to make a concerted effort to cut people out of my life who make me so ragey. Nothing makes your blood boil like finding out you’ve been lied to. I try to be as straight up honest as I can – unless I need to tell a white lie to spare a friend’s feelings. But I’m tired of extending courtesies to people who don’t reciprocate. So – you’re cut out. Byes now.
I feel better already!

Love this post!!! I’m laughing out loud right now at the RSVP piece. Couldn’t agree more. What’s so hard about clicking a little button (yes, no, maybe)??? I think this year my approach is going to be: out with the old, in with the new (new friends that is…starting with ones that know how to RSVP
