So basically I was in a discussion and one of the points I made was that when I was growing up I wasn't always appreciated for the work I did by my parents. If I got a 90 why didn't you get a 100 etc. And I realized as an adult it's important to respect and value the work you did etc.
I also had shared that the positive reinforcement is necessary because you're human and you have emotions and feelings etc. And that I was type A etc.
This one woman very bitchily smirked and said, 'See parents can't be blamed for everything right. Like if you get jealous that someone has a bigger car than you, you're not seeing all that goes behind them getting the bigger car."
I wanted to punch her. However because it was a group setting I said that but getting jealous is a foolish way to think about it your achievements goals etc. are YOUR achievements, what has that got to do with anyone else?
But I still feel really bad and regret that I didn't tell her to fuck off I know she hasn't worked a day in her life to understand how it feels to work hard and not be encouraged etc. I felt in a group setting if I did that it would cause a scene.
Take a moment and think if you were in my shoes and some random person made a comment like that.
Not only is it insulting it's also extremely disrespectful.
She's acting like she knows something about me when she's a complete stranger and also it is extremely hurtful when you work really hard and aren't encouraged. My point is 100% valid and if she'd ever studied a day in her life she would know how that feels.
I'm not sure about why maybe they did feel bad for me none of the others behaved the way she did towards me I know that.

You expect us to believe you got 90s in college or high school?
You would not be scared of me if you got straight A’s in school. You tell lies about me because you are scared of my intelligence, and you view my intelligence and extensive training as a threat to your reputation.
You think I am scared of this woman?
Are you really that dumb?
This woman and intelligence are you kidding me she's a moron who doesn't even know what you can and can't say in public.
The reason I didn't put her in her place is because of that saying which as I'm talking to you comes to mind - never argue with a fool people will think you're like that person.
I've seen other posts of yours - you are a total fool. You have an arts degree and think others are jealous of you. Really with an arts degree?
I do not have time for your projections on to me
If someone is being rude in a group discussion you need to find a way to shut them up without being rude back to them. It's more of an art than a science but it sounds like you did okay.
I am terrible with putting people in their place especially when it's in a group setting.
And I'm also a bit hurt that some of the others didn't chime in and say that's not fair the girl (me) was talking about her own journey and you're taking this on a trajectory that has absolutely nothing to do with what she's saying.
It's insulting and disrespectful.
Do not give your opinion in public if u aren’t willing to listen to others opinion.
@Plugs Who the hell is someone else to make a huge assumption about me when I just met them?
That's creating an emotionally unsafe environment for me to share anything really because how do I know what some random ass moron is going to infer from it.
You are right I am not interested in listening to a moron's opinion
lol 😂 even u are making assumptions and ranting. Do not give opinions in public if u can’t accept others opinions. Simple.
@Plugs I am not making assumptions I'm stating facts. This is what was said to me in a group setting. I am not the type to create a scene and give people gossip material like hey you know what happened that day in the discussion.
So I tried to not escalate. This was NOT a fucking opinion. This was an assumption about my personality or me as a person when this idiot woman barely knows me.
I also wonder whether she felt a bit threatened by me because I am a good speaker and was trying to derail me or something.
It's a bitchy comment. It doesn't contribute anything positive or constructive to the conversation when she doesn't actually know me.
She wasn't giving a generic opinion it felt she's giving an opinion on ME the way she worded it.
The reason I'm fuming is I'm also angry that because it was a group discussion I couldn't show her a mirror and be like so you've never actually achieved anything in your life but you have a big tongue to comment on someone else's - wrongly at that.
Stop sharing ideas in public when u can’t accept ideas coming at u. Don’t u have common sense. Go talk to someone in pvt , if u aren’t open to others talking. Or talk to objects like mirrors if u wanna dump one sided views.
@Plugs THIS IS NOT FUCKING AN IDEA, Are you stupid?
This person took a point of view I shared and took it in a direction that had NOTHING to do with what I'm saying.
Not only is it rude it's also insulting because of the implication of it. Who the hell is she to pass a judgment on me.
I may not be explaining all of this properly because of how pissed off I am it doesn't take away from the fact that I'm right. And I'm sure that she has issues like this with other people too
lol u do sound jealous as fuck. Hand around people of your league
Jealous of what? Why would I be jealous of someone who doesn't even have brains to know what to say in public?
You are right I should be hanging around people who are just as clever as me not the other way around.
she means you should hang around other losers like you
Ohhhh. The same old argument. If she didn’t have brains she would have the money. After all money doesn’t make itself. Let me guess she’s a bonde and u are a black woman?
@leviopperman You are an idiot. It doesn't matter if I'm super pissed about it - I am 100% sure if she made the same type of remark towards you you'd be livid too.
So some random ass person who I have nothing to do with insults me and you have the nerve to call me a loser?
Unlike you I have some self respect
No dude I have zero clue where she went with the money bit or you are. I didn't bring up any topic about money I was talking about academic achievement as a child which I was very good at.
Not really. Also this woman wouldn't even be seen as an equal to me and yet she has the nerve to make a remark like that towards me in public.
And no neither of us are blonde. This isn't a racial issue.
Why isn’t she an equal does she earn less. I get a feeling she’s a pretty woman and u aren’t. It’s mostly the uglies that act Rachet
It's the other way around.
She is significantly less attractive than me - but I know if I'd have mentioned that people like you would have attacked me.
What bothers me is she took advantage of the fact that it was a group discussion and so I wouldn't say anything as it would cause a scene.
Otherwise I'd show that bitch her place to try to make that kind of remark towards me.
She isn't an equal because I can tell from her talking etc. she wasn't smart growing up.
For a lot of very smart people that didn't have supportive parents, the wound of what that was like is extremely painful.
I definitely know someone like her who can only comment on other people's lives and hasn't actually studied etc. wouldn't have the brains to understand what that must have been like
And why do u think u are better than her? lol 😂. Do u make more money? I bet u don’t
So you are the tall skinny pretty girl , and she’s the ogre?
Because I'm significantly more educated and more intelligent.
I don't know why you keep circling back to money. But if we're playing that card probably in my life as my family was already rich I never chased money I chased knowledge.
I am not engaging in this looks based discussion this is fucking crazy.
Regardless of my classist reaction towards that piece of shit who I clearly do not mark as significantly beneath me, it doesn't take away from the fact that she insulted me not the other way around.
She didn’t insult u , learn manners
She literally did by implying i was jealous. First of all jealous of who we weren't discussing a person over here. Second by giving that money example what does money have to do with what I'm saying about positive reinforcement as a child?
This was fucking ridiculous.
And she said it while smirking.
I do not have any more energy to argue with you over this anymore.
Take care
you SHOULD have gotten 100 instead of 90. your parents were correct
this whole post makes no sense and is super cringey
just two retarded women talking nonsense. felt attacked. lmao
Exactly she shouldn’t have given her opinion in public if she can’t handle others opinion. Go talk in pvt
Turn the other cheek
