Lets see....the weekend held all sorts of fun (sense sarcasm)! Saturday morning I went to a "friends" house to pickup a few things of mine. My refrigerator and kitchen cart that I was letting them borrow until I found out yet again I was being lied to by someone I trusted. After finding that out I sent a short and sweet text to this person letting them know I had in fact sold the items and needed them emptied out and ready by the weekend. That was a lie but I figured that was better than causing a fight that I really didn't feel like dealing with and more on her level anyway. (Let it be known that the refrigerator was a second one being used in the garage so its not like I was taking their only one.) However that text (and it really wasn't mean at all) caused this person to lash out at me and hurl insults not only about me but my boyfriend as well. I couldn't believe the way she was reacting and held back for the first day of her childish texts. The next day when they continued I finally let her know the real reason behind me wanting my things back on such short notice. She told me over and over how friends don't treat each other like this so I simply asked her to think about what she did to breech our friendship. Her response was she had no idea and would love for me to tell her. I ignored it. The next text was her saying exactly what it was. But instead of apologizing she had an excuse of course. The thing that made me the most angry is the fact that she had not only been talking to my ex husband (and then lying to me about it) but that she had talked to him about MY BOYFRIEND! The things she told my ex really sent me over the edge since she actually doesn't even know Sam. I told her that and also let her know that she would never get to know him either. Again she insulted me saying I was acting like a 14 year old. To which I thought but did not text...that was way better than what she was acting like. I just ignored the next few texts until she got the hint. But before she finally left me alone she threw in threats to call Garrick and let him know the stuff was there, told me how she wasn't happy with me or my decisions lately, that they (her and her husband) thought Sam and I didn't make a good couple and the reasoning was because he seemed like a "5 start hotel kinda guy" and I was more of "a camping girl." I wasn't sure how to take that. Was she saying I wasn't good enough for Sam or calling him a snob? Another text confirmed it was the latter. Either way I was livid. Like I said they don't even know him! As a matter of fact he likes camping just as much as I do! They have hung out with Sam a max of 3 or 4 times and lets not forget that we as a couple are still pretty new. We are still getting to know each other and of course until he gets to know them its going to be awkward. I'm guessing she was expecting us to be exactly the same as when Garrick and I were together? I don't know. I'm not sure what she wants from me. To be with someone else just like Garrick? Give me a break! We all see how that worked out. There is no comparing the two of them. Sam is a funny, intelligent, sweet, generous, responsible man where as Garrick is a lying, selfish, irresponsible, sorry excuse for a man. And that is me being nice! Whew. Even typing all this is exhausting! And its the short version! That's really all that needs to be said about it besides the obvious that I have now cut this person out of my life. Life is too short for that kind of crap. I need people in my life that love and support me and that can be happy for me that I'm happy! I have learned over the years myself that sometimes you just need to keep your mouth shut and realize that if your friend is happy than that's all that matters. Its their life and as long as they aren't in a situation where they are being abused mentally or physically or harmed in any way then for God's sake let them be!

So Saturday was spent like I said before getting my refrigerator and kitchen cart back. That evening however we watched The Social Network. It wasn't a bad movie I guess but I probably won't watch it again. Sunday we got up and headed to Fredericksburg to help Sam's sister move some stuff. It wasn't bad at all plus we got to visit with his family some and that was nice. We stopped by Bass Pro shops to walk around and to also eat at the Fish Company restaurant. It was yummy as usual! After that we went by another Red Box to exchange The Social Network for Winter's Bone. I was even more disappointed in that movie. Haha! The best movies these days seem to be cartoons. I absolutely loved Toy Story 3 when we watched it! I think the next one we might get will be How to train you Dragon. I've heard good stuff about it.
Ok I think I have gone on and on enough in this blog. So I'll go ahead and tie it up :)
Here's my catchy title (well, not really) for your post....WTF??
ReplyDeleteWho did this? You can wait and tell me tomorrow night if you want. What kind of "friend" treats someone that way? I don't get it. That's insane! Sorry that happened to you Katie. :(
Thanks Amy :) Yea I like that title! I will definitely fill you in on all the stuff I left out. Which you wouldn't think could be much but it is!
