I am currently sitting in a coffee shop across the street from my school overhearing, definitely NOT trying to listen in on these two girls' conversation. I actually want to walk over to them and tell them to SHUT UP. First of all, its like these girls are having a COMPETITION to see whose life is worse and whos divorced parents hate eachother more. "My parents got divorced when I was 8 and they haven't seen each other since..." "Well, my parents lived in the same house without talking to eachother for ten years...." "Well, my dad calls me my mom's name when he's mad at me because he considers it an insult..." "Well, my dad is a raving drunk and calls me every other day to tell me he's not going to pay for college anymore..."
Okay, so I understand if you've had a hard time the past couple of years and you need someone to talk to but please, PLEASE, don't do it at 10am on a Monday morning in a coffee shop filled with students. Plus, when you want to have one of these conversations make SURE its with someone who will listen to you and offer advice, especially when its about something as hard to deal with as parents' marital problems.
These last two years I have begun to understand how important true friends really are. It is so important to stop talking and listen sometimes, and instead of going out to a party maybe spend a night just hanging out with your girls, because they're the ones who will always be there for you. Not the girl who gave you a sip of her drink, the girl who asked what was in it, who made it, and made sure you have a ride home for the night. I don't understand why friendships have to be competitions. So what you had a similar experience a couple years ago, if a friend is in the middle of a serious talk with you don't interrupt. Let them get everything out.
Girls can be catty, and backstabbing, and are the MOST passive aggressive people you will ever meet in your life, BUT they are also the best. When you need a friend there for you and they come through they can be the best. We understand each other.
I don't really know what this post is about other than the fact that these girls sitting next to me are driving me crazyyyyyyyyyyyy.
