Say it here cause you can't say it directly- the get it off your chest thread (Part 1)

<p>I miss you.</p>

<p>As Dr.Phil would put it “You need to put on your big girl panties.” Just say “No” to your kid if you feel that the situation is iffy. Or, how about “Not this year. Maybe next.” You can repeat that for as many years as you’d like. Say it often enough and your kid will learn that only “Yes” means yes.</p>

<p>C’mon honey! Just one more essay and you’re done! Just do it, do it, do it! Please?!</p>

<p>I am just oh so happy that you managed to get an A in English 100, the easiest class on earth. And guess what? You had to lie and cheat and plagiarize your way there. And guess what else? You say your teacher says you’re the best writer in the class? Ha, yeah, right; I’ve seen your “essays”. They are all quotes and all taken from other writers work. So just give up already and stop bragging to me that you’re the best person ever. And please stop talking to me like I’m an idiot. I know more than you do about English, and math, and every other subject that you’re taking right now so please don’t lecture me about all of the above.</p>

<p>If your apps are not done it is not our fault. I have been (nicely) talking to you since July (when the common app started) about college apps. And you didn’t hear me. Even when all your friends are getting acceptances at rolling admissions schools. You still didn’t get the message. And now
you may miss the deadline. Guess what - school teachers and GCs are under no obligation to turn your recs around in 7 days, over a holiday weekend. And yes, one day does make a huge difference.</p>

<p>Why pay hundreds of $$ for D to play a sport she’s not serious about? Quit giving in to her. BTW, her BFF’s boyfriend is way older than her AND he’s got a friend
quit being naive and open your eyes
</p>

<p>Don’t blow it now.</p>

<p>Why do you insist on cooking a grand Thanksgiving dinner? Yes your food is wonderful, but geez, do you need to be told 24/7? You are cannot even enjoy the holiday because you cook this feast for your freeloader friends. I worry about you because you just turned 85. You still need praise and adoration? We all love you what else do you need??? I really can’t understand this sense of insecurity :(</p>

<p>dear common apps people,
I despise you! your common app software is a piece of junk!!! My daughter successfully did all the applications by herself for the schools that DON’T use common application. But for the common app schools, it has been so frustrating that she has given up applying to three schools she was pretty interested in!! The worst thing is you took my money but the school has absolutely no record of ever receiving an application from her!! Whoever invented common apps should have their head examined!!</p>

<p>You claim we are dearest friends. So why is writing on an anonymous blog more worthy of your time and attention than talking to me, especially when my life is falling apart and I have told you I needed a friend? When you needed me, I was always there for you. </p>

<p>It’s no wonder you alienate all of your friends. Apparently sharing your life and dispensing advice on a public forum is more meaningful and gratifying than privately being a true, loyal friend. If you have the energy to endlessly ramble on about your life, you have the energy to be a friend. I’ve had it with your illnesses and difficulties being convenient excuses when I have pointed out your inconsistencies. </p>

<p>Why be exceedingly warm and loving, then intentionally distant? It’s a really sick game you play. Really sick. </p>

<p>And if I’m wrong and you simply wanted to stop being my friend, all you had to do was tell me the truth. I would have understood. Playing mind games to push me away was cruel and unnecessary, especially at this difficult time in my life. </p>

<p>So this is goodbye. You’ve hurt me for the last time. I’m finally going to do what I should have done many months ago – what others advised me to do – and cease all communication with you. I hope I am your last victim, and no one else falls prey to your trap of false kindness and sham friendship.</p>

<p>Please go home. It’s nice that you stopped by unexpectedly to visit my daughter, but I have an event planned for this evening, I need to get the appetizers going, and I don’t have enough for an extra 4 people! Tonight is supposed to be my family’s Christmas celebration, since one of my kids can’t be here for the actual holiday. I have a 90-minute window to make this all happen, and you are intruding on it. Really, can’t you all just meet for coffee sometime instead?</p>

<p>i understand you love your child’s school, but it cannot be the answer to everyone’s college search. please shut up about it
 I get it, it’s all that.</p>

<p>Wow. You must have searched and searched to find that email address. He barely knows you and doesn’t want you emailing him. Perhaps that’s why he didn’t give you his email address. On top of that, your email was so fake. When he described it to me, he wondered why you didn’t just come right out and say what you wanted to say. He knows you’re playing games with him. Just leave the kid alone.</p>

<p>To my wonderful daughter: Just do it!</p>

<p>To my ex-BILs family - stop being such selfish jerks. Pigs.</p>

<p>You broke my heart. What a stupid, dumb, idiotic, thoughtless, dangerous, immature, irresponsible, selfish thing to do. Stupid, stupid, stupid. You better hope someone slipped you a mickey because if you did this to yourself . . . stupid, stupid, stupid.</p>

<p>Why am I having so many computer problems!?!?!?!?! Technology is not my friend.</p>

<p>To my sweet dog: I miss you, but I feel your happy little spirit around me, keeping me company on this dreary day two days after you died.</p>

<p>So you never received the letter I sent you, telling you we needed more info in order to keep your family in the program? The letter I sent you that included a self-addressed stamped envelope to return the documents in? And yet, after your family was removed from the program, and you called to complain and I told you what we needed, you returned the documents to me with the self-address envelope attached?</p>

<p>And you did this not once, but twice! After the first round, when I needed to verify the info you gave us, I sent you not one but TWO letters requesting verification, each of which had a self-addressed envelope enclosed. And yet after your family was once again removed from the program, you claimed you never received EITHER letter - then dropped off the info I needed with another of the self-addressed envelopes attached!!!</p>

<p>If you’re going to lie to me, don’t attach the piece of evidence that PROVES you’re lying!!</p>

<p>Why is that every time someone is sick you blame the person for the illness? I know you want to hear only good news, but you are almost 80 years old, can all the news be only good ones?
Stop telling everyone, that the reason that your brother and BIL have a stroke is because of poor nutrition. You don’t live with them, so why don’t you just be there for them.
I know you resent going to the hospital, and you don’t like to be around sick people, trust me you’re not the only one.
BTW, if I end up at the hospital, please don’t come and visit, I have seen the tortured look on your face when you are there.</p>
