• Come to MEeeeee

  There is this friend of a friend.  Not only is this friend super-controlling about her time with others, but she never goes to other peoples' houses or makes the effort to take gatherings out of her own "space of existence."

  Everyone always (and I mean always) has to come to her.  Her house.  Her food.  Her dinner.  Her parties.  If it's not at her house, it's at a park that's 2 blocks from her house or at a restaurant that near her, or one that SHE likes (and thinks is the best even though it sucks ass.) 

  Every time others invite this person to one of their functions, she has things to do.  But, if you can't come to HER affairs, then something is wrong with you.  (insert guilt trip.) 

  Why can't people just friggin' meet folks halfway?  when you're the one who is always traveling to meet another person, it gets old.  It wears you down.  It makes you feel like your house, your family, your town, your neighborhood must not be good enough for them.  Or, that everyone else isn't worth it to get your ass in the car and drive yourself somewhere else for a change.

  I just friggin' hate that.  I'm tired of catering to everyone else sometimes. 

  Granted, in my situation, it's best to go somewhere central (like Denver) to meet numerous people who all live in that area.  But, if I were to demand THEY come to ME because I just have to have my party/food/gathering MY way, what kind of asshole would I be?

  Grr.  Anyway, just venting.  Thankfully, I rarely have contact with this friend and I have no issue RSVP'ing with a "no thanks."

  P.S. This is not anyone who reads this, btw.  I have friends in Denver who throw killer parties all the time or who have people over, but they're always (ALWAYS) willing to meet you halfway or go somewhere else to celebrate.  This person (thankfully) is just a non-entity in my life these days.  I'm ok with that.
