The 'have a moan' thread

[Jess]

^^ my sister hated that film , while i quite enjoyed it

It was crap!

It irritated me no end how they'd randomly burst into song mid-conversation; and all that bull about each of the fathers being happy with a third of Sophie - I wanted a concrete ending. And Colin Firth's character (Harry?) being gay - wtf?!

[/rant]

I've just broken up with my boyfriend of three months. It was very amicable and both of us had been stressing about it not working out. It's good we've split and are staying friends (going to a new years thing together) but still sad that it didn't work out

I can't stand musical's either. They drive me crazy. Why can't they just talk?

i know yeah, eejit me ;) i think it's cos it was in a shopping centre - i didn't want to interrupt him and then have like loads of people wondering who i was getting a photo with and totally spoiling his 'disguise' - i think the baseball cap was supposed to hide who he was ;)

3 moans coming your way...

Moan 1:

My cousin is getting married and we are not invited. My grandmother, his parents, his sisters, his brother-in-law and their children are the only ones who are invited. On the one hand, I can understand where they’re coming from. They never planned to get married but my cousin got a job abroad and the only way his girlfriend and son can live there is for them to get married. Otherwise she would have to apply for a visa or something like that every few months. On the other hand, if they’re going to get married here, why don’t they just invite everyone? It doesn't have to be a big reception.

He said they’re going to have a party someday for the entire family. Some other relatives say that will never happen. But I don’t think he’s lying about that. He definitely likes a good party. If they have a party, it will probably be during the summer when they come for a visit and the weather is nice.

One of his sister (my other cousin) also got married this year but we weren’t invited either. The worst part is they only told us a week or two before their wedding day. And it’s not only about the weddings, there have been other issues. It’s like that part of the family doesn’t even care about the rest of us anymore. On January 1st, we all go to our grandmother’s house to celebrate the New Year. But this year, most of them will be on a trip. Because of those three cousins, there are some tensions in our family.

I'm 23 and I've never been to a wedding. My cousins don't get married or they do but they don't invite us. My other cousins are about my age and they're single or are not thinking about marriage yet. One of my friends is married but she was already married when I met her. I think the first wedding I'll be going to will be my own.

Moan 2:

My parents are on a 2-week holiday. It's not the first time they've left us alone. Actually, they've been leaving us alone a few times a year for 5 years now. But why does everyone have to come and check up on us? We're old enough to take care of ourselves. We know we can call them if we have a problem. There is no need to show up every day and tell us stuff we already know like "don't forget to lock the doors when you go to bed". If there's one thing we never forget to do, it's locking the doors when we go to bed. We don't want burglars to come a fourth time.

And it's not like we're like those teenagers you see in movies who throw big parties behind their parents's backs where people trash the place, drink way too much, throw up in vases, have sex in the bedrooms etc. We are two responsible young adults!

Moan 3:

My parents sent us a text message telling us they were walking around wearing only a t-shirt at 10 PM at night (they're in Thailand). But we are freezing here. I'm wearing 3 jumpers and I'm still cold.

I'm done complaining. *smiles*
