Free to good home - one mother in law

I'm sorry, I've already got one!

Now run away, you silly english K-nigetts!

I've definitely found that when some one insults you they are normally trying to make themselves feel better about whatever it is that they don't like. My "friend" from high school was like that... She was pretty, but not very bright, and usually used whatever ways she could to get guys... if you get my meaning. Me, I've never been skinny, but I'm pretty, and back in the day we were always out clubbing, bar hopping and having fun. I don't think I paid for a drink for about 4years straight back then. My friend was usually the same with that, but she always had to make a comment to make you feel inferior.

She did the same with my jobs... I usually jumped jobs when I was younger. If something better came along, I'd go there. I really didn't care about longevity or anything, but looked at pay and benefits and stuff. Well, the one time I got laid off, and I was on Unemployment until I could find another job. My current car at the time was dying and I was looking for another used car. SO, on her lunch break, at this little newspaper she worked at for years being a typist and was scared to leave, we went to look at a local place for used cars. The salesman comes over and says hello and what am I looking for, and my "friend" says "Oh Jenn, I didn't know you could buy a car with food stamps!" What the heck?! Who said anything about food stamps?! I just looked at her, totally embarrassed, and the sales guys walked away!!

That's just how she was. She is still petty. She is still unhappy. She's married and has 2 kids and all she does is yell and scream at them and the husband. We don't really see eachother but once a year, and even then it's a bit much.

I could always count on her to make me feel bad about myself. Not what you need in a friend. And definitely not what you want from a relative.
