Friends, Dogs and Awkward: It's a valid lifestyle!

It's a valid lifestyle!

By annoyed - 17/09/2021 08:00 - United States

Today, my friends and I were finally able to meet up for lunch, amidst all of our busy schedules. We had fun talking and catching up about marriage, kids and careers. One friend decided to cause a huge scene though, because apparently we didn’t take her being a stay at home “dog mom” seriously. FML

Today, one of my really close friends changed from being 'free' to 'quite busy' in the space of one conversation because I suggested that we hang out. FML

Today, I went out for lunch with one of my co-workers. After work, I talked to one of my friends about how unpleasant the lunch was with him. My co-worker was standing behind me listening in the whole time. FML

Today, I had to go along with my mom to meet some of her old friends from high school. When they asked her about how her life was going, she said she was married, always traveling, no kids, and introduced me as the neighbor's kid she babysits. FML

Today, I went on the road for work for the first time in a very long time. I was enjoying lunch with coworkers when my phone got bombarded with calls and texts. Turns out my wife and my mother had gotten into a fight within two hours of me being away. FML

On a leash

Today, my best friend and I were supposed to meet up at an outdoor beer garden. We’ve both had a hard time with quarantine, so it was a great escape. Instead, she kept me waiting for nearly two hours before I finally left. Her excuse? Her boyfriend, who she sees every day, really wanted to have sex. FML

Family day

Today, all I wanted was to take my two kids and their two favourite cousins to the beach on their last day of vacation together. My mother-in-law went into full beast mode, shouting about how I'm always roaming around and being irresponsible. The kids never meet and are from different cities. FML

Today, my wife and I both spent a weekend away separately with our close friends. However, we ran into each other, unplanned, at the airport. She was with her girls and I was with my girlfriend. FML

Bad timing

Today, I had dinner with three friends to forget about the painful break up with my boyfriend. The first friend announced that she and her boyfriend had just bought a house, the second one that he was no longer single, and the third one revealed that she was pregnant. FML

Today, my "friends" and I were supposed to go out to eat to celebrate finishing the last day of school, but with a full day of work first, I decided to go buy them donuts. They decided to ditch me while I was gone, and go early. FML

Is that supposed to be a joke, there's no such thing as a stay-at-home dog parent that just sounds like she's being lazy or crazy. LOL unless of course she runs a dog kennel or something.

If I didn’t have a job but had a pet and no kids, I could see myself saying that as a stupid joke. But expecting people to take that seriously? Your friend is nuts and clearly has some issues lol

I watched a legitimate courtroom recording of a woman attempting to take her ex to court because he was supposedly making significantly more money than he claimed, and wanted more support. Now get this, she KNEW this because while they are attempting to reconcile she discovered a massive pornographic collection which included pics and videos that he was in. She said that because of how many there were, he had to be making a ton of money. The judge said, well without any proof to the contrary, "I don't really have any reason to disbelieve how much money he says he is making. Now he did disclose how much he was making, and it IS more than he was previously, so his support order went up." The woman was not satisfied with this and complained she couldn't afford her bills. The judge asked if the woman worked and she said, "No, I have no desire to work. I live with my parents rent free. Why would I get a job? I deserve more support from him so I can live a more normal lifestyle, because he is making a ton of money." Now keep in mind this was a woman in her 40's.

You really should have humored her. Ask about her fur baby's speech progress and its ability to walk upright. Then, pity her for having such a ******' r-word!

I think this post would be more accurate as a post from your friend. not you. after all, she caused the scene. which makes her look kinda like an attention needy, lonely and miserable dog mom, when she could have owned that and laughed with you about it.
