Honestly, I would have shouted obscenities at her. I would have told her that given how insecure she used to be about her damn nose, and as open as you have been about your weight insecurities that you can't fucking believe she could be so fucking insensitive and caught up in how great she was for getting you a shirt to realize that you would never, ever, ever have wanted her to do that. Also, I would have wanted to break her bought-and-paid-for nose.
But that's just me. And, you know, if I were spending the night with her I might have reconsidered.
ohgoodlord..i totally understand why you were embarrassed. i might have lost it on her if i were you. =( so sorry that happened to you. of course chris doesn't care but that's not the point.
I almost told her how mortified I was. But I knew she would be crushed.
it's the little things, you know? like they give you a gambling voucher when you get off the bus, so you can try to win back your bus fare. I won $10 and Lynn won $20. If our situations were reversed, I wouldn't have made a big deal about me winning my entire bus fare back. But Lynn did.
All I could think about was that I drove 2.5 hours each way to CT. and she's jumping up and down over winning $20. Yeah, I know it was my choice to drive down to CT. She told me over and over thank you cuz if I hadn't gone, she wouldn't have gone either.
"I almost told her how mortified I was. But I knew she would be crushed."
Why is it ok for you to be mortified but not for her to be a little crushed? It's not like you were going to say it with the sole purpose of being mean. You would say it to prevent her from hurting you like that again. Also, people deserve to feel the consequences of their actions, even when those consequences are unintentional. Involuntary manslaughter is still a crime, after all.
"but I also feel she didn't know there was even a line to cross."
Couldn't you say that about almost every interaction you've ever had with her? She's 30. It's time for her to grow up and realize that there is a world outside of herself and that the things she does and says affect other people.
I really hate using the word "cunt" as an insult because really it's just a part of body and all, and calling a guy a dick just doesn't have the same punch in this misogynistic world. Still, reading this makes me just want to yell "CUNT" at the screen.
I'm so sorry that this all happened. I hope the good things make up for it? And, anyway, how's the shirt?

I don't have the shirt. CP forgot to bring it. BUT as Lynn kept telling me, CP set aside a shirt just for me. Am I supposed to feel special now?
Thank god she forgot the shirt or I woulda chucked in the garbage.
