oops I started thinking about a frustrating event from highschool and spiraled into anger again :/
#original#the initial event was fairly minor and I probably would not have remembered it this long if not for the incredibly frustrating conversation#that ensued when I complained about it tonmy sunday school teachers#there were two things that had happened and which were inextricably intertwined. X was mildly irritating and Y I was somewhat mad about#they then proceeded to tell me that I should not be mad about X#and no matter how many times I insisted that I didn't CARE about X; I was mad about *Y*#they just kept saying that I shouldn't be mad about X#(honestly I'm also annoyed about how they kept insisting on that.#Like. 'you shouldn't be upset about X; it's gonna happen more times in your life and you're gonna have to get used to it'#is incredibly dismissive and if I'd actually been upset about X I would've been pissed with that response for that reason#)#but I was and still am pissed that I kept telling them that I was mad about *Y* not X and they just kept addressing X#come to think of it I don't think they even acknowledged Y at all let alone my righteous anger over it#... writing out these tags is not helping with the spiraling I think#I came up with an analogy/metaphor/parable that might've helped to make my point#and am now also angry that I can't go back in time and make them listen to it and see if it would make them understand
