But there are some people in this world who almost get off on it. They have no filter on their mouths. No beat in their heart.
In a strange twist of emotions this is how I am starting to feel-
I am pretty much nice to everybody. Overly nice in fact. And that awful feeling I get when I am mean? Well I am starting to get it from being overly nice.
What?
You ask
Weird!
You say
I ask myself What? also.
I say 'Weird' also.
I have just had it with always worrying about everybody else's feelings. I don't ever, EVER want anybody to dislike me. And now at almost 40 years old it has left me drained. I was put in tears today. Sobbing, convulsive tears.
I just want to say again - People Suck!
Oh, and if you are waiting for the
'Other Funny Things'
as it says in my title.
`SORRY`
I am sad right now.
Sad and drained from always being nice, when I am realizing that not everybody else is.
Funny J.R. will be back to her regular, hilarious, knee slapping, roaring good, downright amazing writing soon. Ohhhhhhhhh, now you laugh huh? ;)
But this girl needs a break, and may have to wind up taking one. Too bad if certain people don't like it. I can't help it.

JR sent you an email.
ReplyDeleteI understand where you're coming from completely.
You'd think the older you become, the more you should be able to deal with that crap. But it just seems that the older I get, the more stuff hurts.
Hope you feel better soon hun. You know where I am if you need me. xx
Got your email, will respond to that too, but I was reading it on my phone, and uggggggghhhh typing anything lengthy on a phone is FRUSTRATING!!
DeleteSo true, I thought older meant, well older! No, but really I thought the older I got I'd be less anxious, less worried, less everything. But somebody left that chapter out of Life 101.
Thanks Lily;) and you'll be getting an email back.
JR...I'm going to tell you something and I want you to listen to me and then do it, ok?
ReplyDeleteIt took me 49 years to reach the point that you are at right now. Don't waste the next 10 years or even one more day being a people pleaser.
Stop it now. It will suck the life out of you, sweet girl.
Don't let it.
Big hugs, T.
Thanks, and big hugs back. More in an email to ya ;) xoxo
DeleteWhat Tina said! I've started to believe that you need half the population to not like you in order to be true to yourself. Collect the non-fans like trophies!
DeleteAnd me? My numbers are at like 75%. People cross the street when they see me coming. I killed that people-pleaser Marianne years ago. Life is way funner this way. And I even say "funner" and begin sentences with "and" and don't care!! (:
Thanks Marianne- I am workin on my new self as I type this. Went for a walk this morning to start my day. Strengthening my brain one day at a time! :)
DeleteI am SOOOO Non-Confrontational it is nauseating. Although my husband always laughs when I say that, and he asks "why is it so easy for you to be confrontational with me though? You have no problem letting me know when you are pissed" LOL!!! He is right! Poor Guy!
