Updated 2026. My mother passed at age 97 (2024) RIP. I will be updating this site so I can help retirees again. Write to me!

Fussy

Hmmm… I live in a condo and recently at a dinner party another cinco owner told me twice I was rude because I served a bit of salad on the plates without asking permission.

Next day I looked it up and found I had operated in error.

I apologized, but feel sad about the whole interaction.

My question is: How can I just forget about it? Your thoughts please. Thankyou

Tell her to "go scratch"
by: Michael - Venice Florida

Miss Manners would point out that the other condo owner was rude for pointing out the actual or perceived bad manners of another person.

My Mom would give you the best advice. Mom would say, "the next time, tell that other condo to "go scratch" and then ignore her."

Just remember that you are a good person. Don't let the comments of others infringe upon your right to enjoy your life.
WHAT?

So silly... right or wrong, how silly is it to even think twice about this?

Please, the other person was "off" as it really doesn't matter. You did something nice... helping others, and someone complained?

Tell them to get a life... :) Bad Wendy!

Let it Gooooo!
