Come on, we’re human.Sometimes we hang onto something petty that should easily be forgotten. Let’s vent and share, and let it out.For me, I was good friends with eddy for years.But last year, he kept saying rude and insulting things to me—like I was a loser, even tho HE’S the biggest loser too. I was so insulted,i simply stopped talking to him and shunned his company to teach him a lesson coz now he is stuck with the truly boring friends( i was actually the fun one LOL)i know it is childish but i didnt care enough to ever talk to him about it and now its been too long
thoughts?whats yoours???thanx

Hi, ankitbhat. I try not to hold any grudges on anyone, but I can't ever lie and say that I haven't. Secretly, I have been holding on a grudge towards my mother-in-law. She once told me that her oldest daughter's hair was longer than mines. Which in honesty, my hair was much longer than her daughter's hair anyway. My mother-in-law said these mean things just to pull me down. I don't believe that me and her son was already married then anyway. Well, I carried this grudge amongst me for many years. I kind of finally got over it in, 2009. But, I still continued to be angry with what my mother-in-law said to me. She said this nasty comment to me in the year of late 1999 or 2000. This bothered me because she is the second person that has falsely compared my hair to someone else. She made am untrue statement. I went through this same scenario when I was in college in 1997. My roommate was washing her hair in the tub in the bathroom. Me and her was just chatting. All of a sudden she just blurted out, "You know my hair is longer than yours'. I did not said anything at all. The truth was, my hair was very much longer than hers. But I did not want to debate with her, so I did not respond to her comment. I finally have realized that my roommate and my mother-in-law were both jealous of me. I just don't understand because I was not the type of female to show off with my long locks. When I was in sixth grade I had hair that hung to my rear end. I could actually sit on my hair. It was just that long. I kind of wonder how these two females would have reacted if they saw that my hair this long. Well, it does not matter. If these two females were so sure of themselves, then why did they feel like they had to mention this to me? These situations have happened many years ago and I have been deeply affected by what my mother-in-law said, mainly because she was going to be my future, first mother-in-law, and this meant a lot to me. I desired her approval of me and all that she had done in this process, was to try to bring me down and crumble me to tiny pieces. Well, at first her strategy worked, but I regretfully have to say, that now it no longer is in effect. Yes, I have gotten over that grudge because I know that she was trying to intentionally hurt me in the most hurtful way that she could. She admired my beauty and my long black hair and she had to find something that was positive about me that would aid in her making my self-esteem low. This was a petty grudge, but hey, she started the whole petty thing...

i dont understand was it your grudge really??????because if you knew you hair was longer than other two females then why would you even care what you roomate and your mother in law said because practically anybody could have said that you have better and longer hair then the other ladies and as the matter of fact you didnt have to charm your mother in law afterall and roomate as weell for that matter
now its nice to know that your grudge has finally culminated after so many years

I guess it was more about the fact of me wanting to be acceptable in my mother-in-law's eyes. When she insulted me I felt like she was intentionally hurting me, so I held a grudge against her, because she was trying to deliberately bring down my self image. Now, this is what made me angry, so I no longer wanted to have anything to do with her or anyone that attempted to strive to ruin me in any harsh and hurtful way that is possible.

Mine was, I was friends with two other girls. That was many years ago. One day, these two friends had an argument. I'll call them Amy and Cara. I am closer to Amy than I was with Cara. One day after having had a big argument, Amy told me what had happened and next thing I knew, Cara came after me and told me not to be friends with Amy because 'she didn't like it'. I told her if I have been friends with Amy then she's a friend to me whether she liked it or not because I couldn't just drop Amy just because someone told me to drop my friendship with Amy. Because I wouldn't listen to Cara, Cara started to insult me with alot of things which I couldn't forget. If she had argued with Amy, it's between them but she hadn't any right to tell me not to be friends with Amy just because they weren't friends anymore and then started it out on me. Anyways this happened a long time ago and I haven't talked to Cara since then.

HiMine is a silly one but last year a friend came to visit with their child and their child fell in love with an educational toy my son had which you could by additional books for. I was bidding for one for my son on Ebay and they had the cheek to out bid using my own computer to do so for this particular item. They will not recive another invite to stay in my home for having done this as they were aware I was trying to buy for my son, they thought it was funny, I thought it was disrespectable especially as they were using my computer I couldn't up my bid for the item. huggles. Ellie :D
