[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't expect her to care about the minute details of my kid's life, and I barely mention my kid to anyone other than my parents and my sister.

The conversation goes like this:

My sister -- let me tell you about all the drama in my grad dept

Me -- so this is what my daughter and I have been doing lately

My sister -- let me continue to tell you about grad dept drama (this involves her 100% ignoring that I said anything)

I'll just adjust my expectations and not expect her to give a crap about my life. [/quote]

So you interrupted her telling you about something going on with her to talk about your kid, and you think she's being the rude one?[/quote]

No, I didn't interrupt her. She was finished with a grad dept drama story. I listened, responded to that, and then mentioned something about my life. She ignored it.[/quote]

But that's not what your previous post says. Maybe you thought she was done talking about grad school when in reality she wasn't (as evidenced by the fact that she kept talking about it after your interjection), and she's off somewhere complaining about her sister who can't let her finish a story without jumping in to tell her all about how Larla tried to eat sand at the playground.[/quote]

Alright, fine. I thought she was finished with the story. I thought I might be able to respectfully bring up something about my life after hearing about her grad dept drama for 2 hours (not an exaggeration). I guess I'm wrong.[/quote]
