Some people are beyond me.

I've just came home from picking Corey up from school, I walk to get him and most days I'm early so I wait on a bench near the local church. I was early today, so I was sitting just chilling, rummaging through my bag for my chap stick and this old woman comes up to me, really invading my personal space and says. 'Why did you get so big?' I mean WTF! I'm fat, I know that, I don't need random strangers commenting on it to my face. I didn't know what the hell to say. First impulse was to tell her to fuck off but I couldn't do that, so I mumbled something about always being like this. So she replies 'Are you sure?' Yeah, of course I'm bloody sure, I have to look at myself everyday.

What she expected me to say I don't know. Was I supposed to go, 'When I get upset I stuff my face with food because in my mind food is the ultimate comfort?'

So she's standing looking at me and I'm looking at my bag because I feel about an inch tall and she goes 'Oh okay, take care pet.' Right tell me to take care after you've just made me want to cry in the middle of the street then hit the nearest shop and buy as much chocolate that I can.

I don't know why some people have the mistaken belief that they can say what they like. I wish I wasn't such a sap that I could have told her to fuck off, but I know if I did I would have felt bad about it after.

So I'll say it here...Fuck off and leave me alone!

Perfect icon, I'll have to practice that pissy face in case anything like this happens again.

I probably would have said some pretty nasty things to her but thats me. I give you a lot of credit for not going off on her actually.

At the time I was too stunned to really say anything. But I doubt I would have said anything anyway as I have a stupid habit of feeling bad if I say anything negative to people. I'm far too soft for my own good at times.

No need to be sorry for the rant. It makes me feel good that someone would be annoyed on my behalf. It's up to no one how I live my life but me. Some people are just too nosy and interfering for their own good, and yes a big stick would be an excellent idea then.

*hugs you back* thanks for the kind words.
