    ok, well,
    i woke up about half seven, been sick the last few weeks so ive been sleeping of and on.i go downstairs and have a cigarette,talking to my housemates.
    theres knock on the door and its one of our (i hate to say it) friends. she comes in and sits down,and we all just hang out for a while. now in our house,everyone gets a bit of slagging,no one is exempt. she knows this,as shes known me for about six years,and shes been hanging out at our house since we moved in the end of august. after about hour of everyone laughing and joking,she gets up to head home and watch tv.
    then i get a text message of her swearing like a sailor at me,telling me she wasnt in a good mood,and how I had really upset her. i said to her in fairness,i didnt slag you that badly,usually we'd be worse,and everyone got slagged. i also told her that she knows what we're like,and that if she had told us or one of us she wasnt feeling great we wouldnt have slagged her at all, to which she replied with more swearing,calling me a heartless *&%^ etc etc.
    im annoyed no,as on one hand i feel sorry for her, whereas on the other she'd till annoy the hell outta me no matter how i was feeling.

    what does everyone make of this??

    Throwing her rattle out of the pram and probably nothing to do with you.

    Reply and tell her if she doesnt like it then not to call around again and you will accept her apology.

    BS!!! What age is she - 13???????

    ah sometimes it can just be too much when guys slag girls. i know i find it a tad annoying if my guy friends do it too much, more so when it's like pretty much everything you do or say they make some joke of so it just gets a bit much.


    she'll get over it!!

    if she knows you that long she should know what to expect! my guy friends slag me all the time! i would never expect them to change in order to suit my moods! it sounds like she is attention seeking.

    i did indeed tell her,its our house,if you dont like it,dont come over.
    haha and we're all in our twenties surprisingly enough.;)

    the thing is is that she herself has no problem slagging the hell out of everyone,and then tonight she went mental.
    to add more to the story,when i said it to my housemate(who got with her a while ago,even though she has a boyfriend lol) he couldnt believe she went mad over tonight,and now hes gone to her place to try and talk sense into her,as shes still giving out $hite about moi.

    Now thats an entirely different post :D

    She is acting like a muppet. Dont lose a minutes sleep over it unless she can point out exactly what upset her and why....

    I guess she is looking for attention and most probably your flatmates....

    Just sounds like she's looking for someone to vent on because something else has her in a huff and unfortunately you ended up being that person.

    Time of month. Women are irrational at the best of times.

    I'd say probably one of your comments hit a nerve with her, something that hurt her although it wasn't intended to.

    And isn't it nice how everyone's keen to jump on the PMT option... People can get in bad moods at ANY time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,562 ✭✭✭cance


    you sure she hasnt a thing for you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    Perhaps she felt with all the slagging that if she declared, "I'm not in the mood, leave me alone", then there'd be even more slagging about "time of the month" and PMT.

    At times women can seem to think that we should be able to sense that they're in a bad mood and then blow up at you when you don't magically figure out exactly what it is. If you know someone that well though, you should be able to pick up at least that they're not exactly themselves.

    I'd be honest - tell her that you're sorry that she was upset but you have absolutely no idea what she's upset about. If she doesn't like that then call her a high-maintenance bitch :)

    Most of the posts made no mention/implication of it so I fail to see how "everyone's keen to jump on the PMT option".

    Any apologies/explaination from her yet OP?
    If it is a case of her just venting on you make sure it's clear to her that you're not up for being her emotional punching bag and perhaps suggest that she find a hobby to deal with her bad moods instead.

    wow its hard to make an appointment for a doctor in carlow lol
    when i got back my housemate didnt really say anything bout her mood when he went to hers,making the others suspect shenanigans.
    i already told her during her flurry of insults i was (especially at the moment) not taking her crap.
    still no explanation or apology.
    as for the person who suggested she might have a thing for me... *shudder*:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 539 ✭✭✭DawnMc


    What did you say to her? If this is unusual behaviour from her then maybe you said something out of line in a slagging way?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,523 ✭✭✭✭Nerin


    nope,it was actually tame for a change.
