But this has been happening over and over again for 10 years. And my husband believes that his mum is an absolutely simple and ingenuous person.Standing in a long line at Safeway, a woman began shouting that \u201cthere needs to be another cashier!\u201d On cue, a person stocking shelves was pressed into cashing out customers. Half the line shifted to the new register, but the demanding woman was out of position to lead the shift. She immediately strode to the front of the new line (ahead of me, as I had been in the pole position in the new line). She loudly declared that \u201cNuh uh! This is me!\u201d(Claiming what she felt was her rightful place at the front of the line).I\u2019m pregnant, 28 weeks. My husband and I decided to go to the seaside while we still could. My mother-in-law immediately asked to come along, saying, \u201cHow exciting! I\u2019ve wanted to go to the sea for a long time.\u201d We said,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cActually, we wanted to go alone there so that we had a chance to be just the two of us before the birth.\u201d And she smiled wryly and said, \u201cYou will soon ask me to babysit. Thus, I need to rest.\u201d We subtly hinted to her that we don\u2019t plan to ask her to babysit in the next couple of years. She got offended. A friend borrowed a small amount of money from me and didn\u2019t give it back, and disappeared after that. A few years later we met by chance, and he offers me to resume our relationship, get each other\u2019s phone numbers. And I remind him about his debt, and he says, \u201cYou know the past remains the past.\u201d I said goodbye to this character for good.My sister is married. Her husband has been out of work for 6 months. They have a daughter and she is pregnant. They couldn\u2019t pay the rent and came to live with us. Today she asked me to look after the baby because she wants to go back to work. But why should I look after the child after work when there is a father who is free as a bird? After I refused, she called me shameless, because I don\u2019t have children and know nothing about life.A friend got pregnant. Her boyfriend was far away earning money, her parents lived in another city. I helped her with everything, I even went to the hospital with her when she was in labor. And after all this, she said, \u201cI would ask you to be our child\u2019s godmother, but your status is not good enough for us\u2026\u201dMy friend (as I thought of him at the time) didn\u2019t invite me to his wedding, although our relationship was excellent. Later, he started asking me when I\u2019d get married, because he really wanted to have a good time at my wedding. I was amazed with this arrogance and didn\u2019t know what to say. This went on for years, until I finally found the right words. When he asked me again about my wedding plans, I told him, \u201cDon\u2019t worry, you invited me to your wedding, so I will invite you.\u201d The look on his face was something else.I have 6 children (2 biological and 4 adopted children). We live in the countryside. I own a small farm. Recently, all families with many children were given 3D TVs. We refused, as we have regular television, it\u2019s enough for us. The children are busy from morning till evening with studying, sports and hobbies. And we have a neighbor, she has one child. We don\u2019t communicate with her anymore because I turned down the TV set, but in her opinion I should have taken it and given it to her. Her daughter dreamed of this thing, and I, stupid and shallow, didn\u2019t think of my friend.I used to do wedding photography and videography in the past. A guy I knew asked me to shoot his wedding with a 50% discount. But at the wedding, it turned out that they weren\u2019t going to feed me. I asked about food, and they brought me a plate with a thin layer of potatoes, greens and something else. I wish they hadn\u2019t given me anything at all. I had originally planned to film till the end of the event, but after this dinner, I left in an hour.My brother has been whining for years that he can\u2019t find a woman. He recently met one, was thrilled, dated for 2 months, and then he dumped her. I asked, \u201cWhat happened?\u201d And he said, \u201cImagine, she asked me to call her a taxi home! I\u2019m not a doormat!\u201d \u00a9 Overheard \/ Ideer I have my phone number on the car window. I\u2019m sitting at home, the car is in the yard. I get a call from an unknown caller, \u201cCan you please move the car?\u201d \u201cI\u2019m on my way,\u201d I reply. I\u2019m going down in the elevator and thinking, \u201cI didn\u2019t block anyone. I put the car in an empty space.\u201d I come out of the entrance. There\u2019s a young guy next to my car, he says, \u201cYour car is in my spot. I always park here.\u201d I say, \u201cHow long has it been yours?\u201d And he replies, \u201cI\u2019ve lived here for 3 months, I park here all the time.\u201d I have lived in this house for over 30 years, and I have no right to say that I have my own parking place here.I gave my wife a nice, expensive gift. I also made a gift to my mother-in-law \u2013 a beautiful scarf made of natural wool. But this gift was less expensive. So imagine, she wasn\u2019t happy, as she was expecting something more solid. In the end, my wife wears this scarf.My husband left me in the bus. He and I went to movies. There were only 2 empty seats in the bus: one near the driver and the other one in the back. I sat near the driver, and my husband took the second seat. It was a short drive, but I didn\u2019t know the way. When I was in the bus for too long, I called my husband, and at that moment it turned out that he was already watching the movie and had completely forgotten about me.A friend asked me to do her wedding makeup for free, and I also gave her money as a wedding present. But she didn\u2019t invite me to the wedding. She explained that the event was only for the family. But I knew that there were also her coworkers and the friends of her husband. We are not friends anymore. It\u2019s terrible when a person uses you like that.I was in line at a pizza restaurant to order a few slices of pizza with the girlfriend. A guy in front of us has already ordered and paid. He then clearly overhears us talking about what we want, which was the last 2 slices left. The dude pulls out his wallet for a second time, and orders the last 2 slices, and walks away with a huge smile on his face after we made eye contact. The cashier (manager I\u2019m assuming) ended up giving us 3 free slices until a fresh pizza came out.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
