[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 743805, member: 4152"] Lil...Bingo! I think it’s something along these lines. I tend to be “different.” Results oriented. Goal oriented. Even with health issues up the wazoo. Normally, I’d probably have my weight under control too...but the prednisone did me in and things aren’t ideal in that dept. but, I’m trying and slowly improving. All I’m saying is that I try my best in all things and it often shows. (I mentioned the weight because I heard a few of the thinner relatives implied hubby and I were chubby...good grief!) Some of these folks simply don’t try their best all the time or in multiple ways. I don’t judge. I don’t care. We all have our priorities. Strengths , weaknesses, different interests. I simply don’t care. I should add, they all have their strengths and talents. But, sadly , much insecurity too. But, for some in this world, if you try your best, have some nice things (nice hair cut, blouse, lipstick, new chair) WHATEVER...this sends them in some sort of tizzy. It bugs me that my daughter in law is very and unusually familiar with “mean girl” behavior. I’m not really. If girls were mean to me in HS or college, I avoided them like the plaque. I’m concerned she might be extra familiar because some of it might be coming from her own family. (Although I don’t truly see her this way. She has a good heart). [/QUOTE]
