[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just try to be breezy and not overthink it. Life is fast here, and the people are sort of hard. Let it roll off your back and just be you.[/quote] This. I am trying to learn how to do this too OP. I get so hurt by the hard people here, don't mind the people who don't respond, but feel so bad when people respond with insults or negativity. [/quote] It is a reflection of how people feel about themselves and their lives. It is clear, when you think about it. There is a mom at our school that no one likes (she is mean, standoffish, acts superior and is not a nice person to other moms - i.e.: it is more than perpetual "bitchy resting face"). There are a couple of (grown women) that cowtow to her. The other moms think it is ridiculous, and the behaviors are sometimes a topic of conversation. To a point where some moms (not me) watch and see what happens when certain moms are around each other. Apparently, it is very obvious, contrived and demeaning, but the one or two moms that do it either don't see how silly it appears, or don't want to see it. It is an artificial social hierarchy, imposed by women who simply never grew up. No one actually wants to be around them; and anyone that does, does so to avoid being in the line of fire. Is this the kind of foolishness you are talking about, OP? Find the nice people, and stick with them. Nicer people tend to have better lives, tend to be happier, and are people that others care to spend their time with - not out of obligation or appearances. [/quote]
