  • In Which Telephoneangel Is "Weird"

    Recently I've written about our houseguest in the threads "How to Influence People Parts 1 and 2" .

    Here's a contribution from boyfriend.

    Background - recently Ive become interested in trying to eat healthily and joining in threads here and getting advice from other posters.Ive been finding it interesting.A few days ago I was reading a magazine and it had a whole section on various healthy foods and how to make meals with them.So I tore it out of the magazine to use it later.

    Houseguest asked me why I tore something out of the magazine.I explained it was a recipe I wanted to try.He said this was "untidy and I should have kept the whole magazine"This was accompanied by looking at me as if I had grown two heads.

    Later boyfriend told me that houseguest told him I was behaving weirdly with a magazine.

    Customer "why did you answer the phone if you can't help me?"

    If someone told me of someone else "behaving weirdly with a magazine", I wouldn't picture them pulling out a recipe .

      I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with a mind that would go straight to the gutter if I was told someone was behaving weirdly with a magazine!

        Well................I cant bring myself to be annoyed and offended but Im just a bit bemused.

        This is a friend of boyfriends who I already knew had a drink problema nd this makes him sometimes say things which if sober he might think better of.........his wife threw him out.I said he could stay here for a few days while he sorted out where to go.We gave him money and made sure he had enough to eat.

        Today I hear from boyfriend's other friend that he said that "boyfriend had been very nice to him but its a shame boyfriends girlfriend (ie the one and only telephoneangel) is a certified lunatic".

        Shall I just laugh?

            I take it as a compliment when someone says I'm a certified lunatic, but I'm weird that way.

              You, me, and likely a good chunk of the rest of the people here, Mis.

                Wait, certified lunatic might not be a compliment? I am weird, strange, a lunatic, and like it that way thanks much. . Also..what have you been doing with those magazines?

                  Some more of his awful behaviour towards me -

                  Kept calling me "dear" in patronising tone of voice

                  Would find some task to do in the house and then berate me for not cleaning up (eg went to wash the dishes when I was just relaxing after dinner and told me "Its not difficult to clean dishes dear")

                  Asked both myself and boyfriend seperately what our sex life was like

                  Told me "he would not kick me out of bed"

                  All of this I just ignored at the time.

                    A swift kick to the nether regions will cure the 'dear' problem and the berating problems. As for asking about the sex life..that is just creepy. As for the last one.. look over there its a dinopirewolf!

                      After a week his wife decided she would have him back if he behaved.

                      Poor woman I feel sorry for her if that is his normal behaviour.

                      I think the moral of the story is never try to be kind to people.

                      Oh I forgot to say after three days he went out for the evening with boyfriend and in between sobbing about how much he missed his wife spent the evening trying to hit on some random woman and get her phone number.

                          Just tell houseguest bluntly:

                          "The term houseguest means you are a guest. I do not need a reason to throw your ass out the door. Keep that in mind.

                            Oh he has left thank goodness a couple of days ago.If he had done that while he was here, he would have been chopped into small pieces let alone thrown out.

                            He called boyfriend after that went on Facebook, very sheepish, he obviously spread this about but didnt expect it to get back to me that he had told other friends.

                            He said "Is *telephoneangel* mad at me?

                              I hope he was told you were raging and ready to kill him, even if it wasn't strictly true .
