I always try to remember that a snide comment comes from the person’s own insecurities about their own circumstance.

My response, no response. I’m not going to her level. My other response, distance myself even more from her.

And not just b/c they usually are.

Love it when you write “real” life things like this. I just do.

I would have immediately said something. Then the party would have gotten very, very awkward. It’s why I’m not invited to many parties.

They were SO snotty about the suburbs. Now, I do wish my house looked different than the others, but it’s just my house! I live in it, not for it.

You were nice to not smack her in her upturned nose.

I agree with you- everyone has a story. There’s always more going on than what we see.

They really do.
