I don’t know if this happens to anyone else. For the last couple of years I really feel like I have found my voice, so now when people are kind of dismissive of me and what I can tolerate. I make jokes because it is kind of funny that people suddenly are offended by me not liking thing that they know I’ve never liked anyway?
I can just see your faces right now…What is she blithering about?lol
Let me give you an example.
A couple of weekends ago was a big birthday for my Mum, so my brother travelled interstate to be with her. Now, I am not good with chilli, never have been. I love sweet chilli, but I can just barely eat that. I always have to drink milk. So over this weekend we were supposed to have a family Chinese dinner out, but they cancelled it and had home made steaks with chilli on it. I hadn’t had a sudden immunity to chilli, so I’m already annoyed.
While making some food my Mum “accidentally” spilt pepper all over the potatoes. I made a joke about would I be able to eat any of it. I got yelled at! Then I didn’t even bite into the steak, but the carrot covered in the juices and my throat got burnt. Then they all called me fake, and then they all paid me out for not enjoying it. So I yelled at them,lol.
Then I cried,lol.
