So i am sitting in the library today working on my math and this girl keeps getting up and down answering the phone and yelling at the person on the other end, each time she comes back she slams her phone on the desk and disrupts everyone around her. I can tell she is upset and i am the closest person sitting next to her so I ask her if she is ok, she turns to me and says " Its none of your F@#$!*# buisness!" At first i thought it was kinda funny how childish she was acting in public, but now i was a little angry myself lol. Anyway i sarted thinking about the whole thing and counldn't help but wonder why she was acting the way she was. Of course there was something that was causeing her to be angry, but as for myself i can be very angry and not show it because i am in public. I think we show our emotions publicly when we want other people to know what we are feeling because some part of us wants help or just to be heard; however, in this girls case i am confused. I tryed to offer help and she was not having it lol. I don't know why but i couldn't stop thinking her public display of anger and what her motives were. What do you guys think? 
You shoulda told her that she was going to "blow a gasket" or "pop a vein" if she didn't "calm down" because you've "been there too" and you "know what it's like" because you "have friends that have been there too" and you know "being on your period can really suck" but that it'd be therapeutic for her to just "seize the moment" because she was alive and healthy and should appreciate the fact that someone was "willing to listen" to whatever her "drama" was. Then you coulda offered to "call her therapist" for her.

This is really crazy! I would feel sorry for her, but her snapping at me would make it hard for me to help her. She's embarassing herself and making other people around her think that she is nuts or even crazy. I agree with Sarah that she would maybe need a therapist. Get her some help with what's going on.
ReplyDeleteI have to give you props for not reciprocating her attitude back in a way to shut her up. If I were in your shoes I probably would of replied with, "If it's not my @#$%ing business, then take your business somewhere private." I can't stand when people over dramatize things get even more angry by the response they get for their obnoxious behavior. If you don't want people to look don't act in a way that will garner attention.
ReplyDeleteYeah I think I probably would have yelled at her if she yelled at me the way she yelled at you. I don't like when people think everyone in the world cares to hear about their problems. She shouldn't have snapped at you but she was probably just still angry about the fight with whoever she was talking to. Some people can't separate themselves from problems they are having in their lives and how they interact with other people not involved in their problems.
