Ok am I wrong?
My mother is insisting I come over. But I'm in a lot of pain -and it makes me a nasty SOB. And she'll make an issue of the length of my hair and also my facial hair - she hates both. So I told her I was busy. A lie but it seemed best. Am I evil or wrong?

Khash.

4. Yup, baby
I have MS, it hurts. I got gaybashed and they seriously fucked up my knee, my back, my neck, I have a hard time walking. I'm in no mood to hang out with someone who blames me for it.

So I'll hang out on DU instead. Make bad jokes, chat, be supportive of people who need it, post lyrics.

5. Awww.
:hug:

I've got a few bad jokes, but most of them would get deleted here.

For some reason they frown on jokes that end with things like: "And then he made mad passionate love. To her butt." :shrug: Who knew?

2. My dear Khash...
You are NOT wrong, sweetie...

You hardly need psychological/emotional pain on top of physical pain...

Stay home and take care of yourself, OK?

:hug:

3. No... you're neither.
You're avoiding making a bad situation worse. And your conflict about it says volumes.

You're a nice person. :)

6. No way are you wrong!
It's time to lay low and pamper yourself, not be harassed.

I'm so sorry that happened to you- terrible!

7. You are the boss of your time; nobody else.
I'm sorry that you have to turn to untruths to have that basic right, but if that's what it takes (i.e, she won't take no for an answer), then I say you've got the right to do what you have to do to be able to control your own life.

I don't like lies at all, but, in my opinion, you had no choice without starting a major fight that doesn't have to happen, especially when you're in pain. :(

Bottom line: do what you have to do to take care of yourself. :hug:
