Why can’t we all be a little straightforward? Please.

Every day, my mom would have this utter fear from a Jordanian lady that keeps coming to our house uninvited. This lady seriously has issues. She is divorced, but trying to suck up her husband’s money (he is a millionaire), and has horribly raised kids. They don’t even go to school and always out in another city with friends. They are still in high school. And yet, this lady keeps coming over whenever she feels like for 3 or 4 hours complaining about her life. How does my mom feel? Annoyed!

My mom is about 18 or 19 years older than her. I don’t understand why my mom talks to this woman anyways. This woman has serious problems, and now she is going around telling people she is chatting with this guy from Egypt and wants to bring him to Canada. Ok? My mom doesn’t understand why someone would not bother with the kids, raise them wrong, and look for another husband.

So, every time the phone rings, or door rings, my mom tells me, “if it is her, tell her I am not here.” My dad refuses obviously because it is lying. However, in my case, well, I don’t bother answering the door or phone. It’s not my problem. Every time my mom complains, I tell her, “why don’t you just tell her to stop coming, or not to come uninvited.” My mom says, “no way I am saying that. That is wrong.” I tell her, “isn’t it wrong to complain about people and not want to see them and lie to them?” She said, “yes, but what am I to do? Why do I have to sit for 3 or 4 hours and listen to her? Half the things she says are not true and everyone knows that.” I just keep telling my mom, “be straightforward. Tell her to stop coming uninvited!”

I am totally different than my mom when it comes to people. I have no patience, and I am too straightforward. If I don’t like someone or someone’s actions, then I tell them. I don’t care. I rather satisfy my self than them. It’s my life, not theirs that I have to carry on my shoulders and sit through for hours non end.

I feel that some people have this annoying trait to them that they can’t help, or they don’t notice or think is wrong. It is a habit to them, but there are people like me that will get annoyed and tell people off. I don’t care if I burn bridges or loose friends. I don’t want to spend my hours listening to nonsense and accepting certain behaviours I don’t like. Don’t get me wrong, I am accepting of people and who they are in general. Everyone is unique, but some behaviours I cannot tolerate because it disturbs me. I don’t like to get disturbed. It pisses me off and I don’t want anymore grey hair. I have enough.

Advice, They said what?, Whatever!
