[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. She’s soooooo busy reading books for book club, scrolling Facebook and commenting on random things, volunteering at the library one day a week, and running errands that she wouldn’t possibly have time.

If I mention anything that is bothering me or is stressing me out, she will just one-up me and then make it all about her and how much harder her life is/was. [/quote]

For example, I invited her over to see my updated powder room and new couches and she glanced at it for 15 seconds and then launched into a 20 min soliloquy about a home project she is thinking about doing - but it’s just hypothetical and not planned anytime in the near future. It’s always like this. At my wedding - talking about herself. Visiting when my first born was 3 days old - talking about herself. Me struggling to breastfeed a jaundiced baby - doesn’t ask how I am, just takes it as a criticism of how she didn’t breastfeed. Everything is about her and how she is either too busy to deal with anything or how she is the victim because the world doesn’t bend to her whims and read her mind. [/quote]
