Miscellaneous: Enough is enough

Enough is enough

Today, I was confiding in my grandma about how lonely I am and how everything in my life seems to be falling apart. While I was in mid-sentence, she rolled her eyes and made a show of removing her hearing aid. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I was listening to music while my grandma and mom were in the same room. I only had one headphone in. My mom, thinking I had both in, started telling my grandma how much of a "little bitch" I am. My grandma went on to say, "She's also a slut." FML

Today, during a family reunion, my 89 year-old grandma stood up and drunkenly made a speech about how ashamed I should be of myself for still being single. She then passed out at the table. Half my family got up to help her, the other half whispered in agreement. FML

Worried?

Today, my grandmother gave me a long speech detailing how she was worried about my well-being, and told me that I could tell her anything. I tried to open up to her about my mental health issues, to which she responded, "Stop, I don't care, I'm not your therapist." I'm so confused. FML

Today, I walk into my grandma's house after having a fabulous lunch with a few friends. The first thing I hear is "Be a dear and help me change my colostomy bag." I lost that fabulous lunch. FML

Today, I found out my grandma wears dentures when I had to fish them out of a cooler. She lost them bobbing for beer at a local bar. FML

Let her have her fun

Today, I was at a restaurant with my grandma. A young, ripped gentleman suddenly walked through the door and my grandma looked at him and shouted, "Look! Eye candy!" as loud as she could. He heard it and was extremely embarrassed. To make it worse, my grandma is a widow, so she might have actually meant it. FML

Today, my grandma reduced me to a sobbing wreck in two short sentences, just to win a bet against my mum. FML

Today, my grandma is refusing to talk to me because I didn't answer her phone calls while we were at a parade. I was in it. FML

Today, I was on the phone with my senile grandma, when I told her I had to go because I had an appointment at the clinic. For some reason, she assumed I was talking about an abortion clinic, and started raging at me and calling me a murderer. FML

Foot in mouth

Today, one of my closest friends and I got into a fight. She ended the conversation with, "My grandma just had a stroke. Bye." I didn't believe her so I replied "That's great. Bye." Turns out her Grandma is in the hospital in critical condition. FML

I was like that for a while. My internet friends helped, you'd be surprised how opening up to someone miles away can help. They're really easy to make, too!

Grandmas can be surprisingly harsh for such sweet old ladies

how rude! I think the next time your grandma wants to talk to you about anything, you need to ignore her. That's awful. I hope you have other family members you can talk to, that actually have a heart. So sorry, hope things get better for you!

Step on her oxygen hose. Stand there as if you're admiring a great work of art. Walk away 30 minutes later.

that was a little harsh, but I think I would have told you to think more to the good side of life, don't whine about the bad side.

Your grandmother probably went through a similar thing at your age, but now since she got through it and is long past it she's forgotten how crappy it is. Everyone needs someone who'll listen to them, even if it's the occasional whine. I hope you can someone to confide in, or maybe find someone professional who'll give you coping tools?
