Oh nooI used to groan on journeys at "how long more till we get there, mum?"
07.15 this morning
"Is it still lockdown, mum?"
I hate being on video calls with my in-laws. Not a fan of calls in general but we are all quiet people. I don't talk to them on the phone in general and that seems to bother my husband...So!
i appreciate we’re on lockdown and everyone is missing their family, HOWEVER! my boyfriend has facetimed his parents every night for the last week and does it intentionally when I mention I’m bored so that I can be in on the call with no excuse, so I usually have to sit there for 30-90 minutes grinning into a small screen and dying for the call to end. We have JUST gotten in from an hour long run (i know it’s late but yno) and as soon as we get in the door, his dad facetimes him! I refused to be on camera due to my red face and need for a shower and received quiteeee a few passive aggressive comments because I wouldn’t be in on the call, but surely after a week of facetime calls with no developments in either of our personal life’s, another one was surely abit excessive!! We live in a small apartment so I went for a “shower” (aka 10 min shower and 55 minute stand in the bathroom on my phone) until the call ended and I have just been confronted on why i’ve avoided speaking to his parents.
I know they miss him but before the last few months they never even bothered with him! I do like his parents and love speaking to them when we have things to say but I’m tired of facetiming them every night for no reason, am I bad person?
That's shitty, I'm sorry. I don't get what her issue is especially since you've offered to pay the difference. Just nagging for the sake of it I guess. Hope your next flight will be okay!My Mother
Yet another argument over something I would consider relatively trivial. But because I am temporarily living with my parents, she is turning every little drama into a major crisis, and it pisses me off no end.
Yesterday, I posted on one of the threads on here how she would walk into my bedroom without having the courtesy of knocking first. Today, she moaned about how the electric bill has gone up since I arrived here roughly 5 or 6 weeks ago.
I offered to pay the difference, but she wouldn't have it. Instead she just went on and on and on about how much electric, how much gas, how much water, how much food I've used since being here!
Big argument ensued, and then she said "Why don't you bugger off to your girlfriend!"
So now we have the usual silence, which will probably last until the evening, and then we'll be friends again until probably tomorrow, and it will probably kick off all over again.
You're doing better than me , yesterday I accidentally posted a rant in a completely unrelated thread. I think I pressed back and it took me to the last thread I looked at , rather than the previous page of the thread I was readingI always get so confused between the rant/whinge thread and this one. I've been writing on the rant/whinge thread thinking it was this one the whats pissed you off thread
Same! At least I can call their parents! I feel like I’m talking to myself for much of my time with some of my students today!Lazy people at work. Pretending to be logged in and working but evading doing actual work. RAGE.
