A teenage crisis.
The best friend D was on the phone for most of the night or vice versa with the kid because it was an emergency, apparently. She found a text on her boyf’s phone from his ex telling him that she loved him etc, etc. D got paranoid later on that night, tried ringing him to ask him what was going on, he got annoyed and hung up. Long story short, and believe me when you’ve heard it for most of last night and this morning, it is long, she’s convinced that he’s cheating on her. She’s been seeing him for a year. I made the mistake of asking what she was going to do about things. The kid stated and I tried not to laugh out loud:
“If she finds out she’s cheating, she’s going to dump him. She reckons the grieving process could take 6 months as she was with him for nearly a year” It seems she has already dumped him in her head and is moving on.
Teenagers, I ask you. They don’t need to watch the soaps, their lives are soap operas! She was wrecked this morning again, as are we all. Mammy2 has come down from cloud media and is back to being a mere phleb. I don’t think she likes the attention it brings though. The work crowd in here only found out about her appearences when my boss arrived in yesterday morning and said he had seen Mammy2 on Sky News. There is talk now of civil partnerships being brought in here by McDowell, but he makes annoucements like this every week so I wouldn’t pass any heed on that. When we actually see a bill and the content of it, maybe then it will start to become a reality.
The socialising continues, tomorrow night is my christmas party. Friday night is Mammy2’s xmas party. Sure its all go. She has cancelled Solas again. There’s nothing we can do about it at this stage I suppose. If she doesn’t want to go, we can’t force her. She is of the opinion she doesn’t need it. The only we can do is get in touch with her therapist and see what she has to say about it. I don’t know whether its a good idea to stop the therapy as her counseller seems to think she should continue going but I guess only she can make that descision.
