If you are a socially aggressive mean mom, why?

TL; DR. These women are all super nerds reliving high school in their forties armed with plastics, Botox, diamonds and their rich husbands. It’s revenge of the nerds.

You just avoid this crowd. Especially once you start banging one of their DH. You’ll always be the hot cheerleader. Nothing to prove.

Sit the eff down. No one wants the used up, old, tired, discarded cheerleaders, don't you worry. As for the nerds, they could not care less what the shallow people think - the blessing is, they knew that from a young age and still get by just fine with their brains, unlike this PP.

The ones reliving high school are socially stunted, and not worth your time, OP.

My daughter will work with one girl on group projects but won't otherwise hang out with her. That girl doesn't go anywhere but school without her entire family, and has zero sense of humor. The girls went to a movie and the mom sat right next to them. That was the last straw for DD. "If I wanted to hang out with a mother, I'd hang out with my own!"

^^Mean Mom.

When they ran out of space, she had some of them sit on the floor by her feet so they all at had a front row view.

I pity the woman/Mom who is sitting on the floor by her friends feet at a play? Doormat much? What in Gods name is this teaching your daughters? Slavish fawning at a Queen Bee’s feet. Not fetch!

I highly doubt that any of the socially aggressive mean moms think of themselves that way.

In my kids school some of these moms hashtag their designer clothes in their social media posts and if their kids are wearing designer, those get a hashtag too. Ex) having so much fun at the pumpkin patch#louisvitton #lululemon#gucci#moncler. These people live empty lives. No need to associate with them.

A mom did this at a Bingo fundraiser a few years back. When I approached with my family and a few other school families, i was told i was not allowed to sit there. Oh really? I just sat down and let her stew about it the rest of the evening. Not my problem.

I love that you did that. So many people let the QBs have power because they are too nice.

I can be perceived as a mean mom because I have a well-established group of friends who I enjoy hanging out with and whose kids are my friends' kids. I also have a job, two kids who have lots of activities, and a husband who travels a fair amount for work. The truth is that I have absolutely no bandwidth for any more friends, although I'm happy to say hello to anyone. But on the rare occasions that I come to pick up or go to a school event, I want to talk to my friends, who I miss and feel like I don't see often enough. I don't want to talk to Larla who I don't even know and don't have time to be friends with.

If I seem standoffish, it is because I don't feel like making stupid small talk with someone I don't want to get to know better. At this point in my life, I have enough friends and can't possibly make room for any more. And maybe, yes, you are awkard, or annoying, or have rubbed me the wrong way somehow at some point. Why would we want to get to know each other in this case? Find your own friends who don't find you uninteresting or abrasive, or whatever. Find people who actually want to find friends, not people like me who are up to their ears in life and can't handle one more relationship. I'm positive that I myself have rubbed people the wrong way, or haven't made the best impression and then haven't become friends with them. But guess what? I'm not obsessing over it on DCUM. I've moved on and found my own group of supportive, nice friends.

Do you have any idea how rotten this is?
