Do you know this poster IRL? Why the middle school girl response?
This from the person who makes countless assumptions about the lives on many of the posters here. You're very funny. Thanks for the laugh. 
No, you are so right. I am a total miserable b*tch and I am so jealous of you. You've got me all figured out. Boo hoo I wish I could have your life, living in mediocrity in the middle of NJ looking so forward to my next trip to Disney.
Miserable b!tch is right. Finally something we can agree on. 
Wow really? Was that really needed? 
Just agreeing with her. Her words, not mine.
You crack me up! I think it's super cute that you think I'm jealous.
I think it's super cute how you pretend that you're not utterly obsessed with EVERY WORD I post but yet, have been replying NONSTOP ALL DAY. Weird.
To be honest, I only do it because you do the same. exact. thing. to VB all day long..... Funny right?
Yea, that's why. #obsessed

How was everyone's Mother's Day
My Mother’s Day was glorious with the people I love. I woke up to the ones I love, they spread rose petals at my feet everywhere I went just like in coming to America, we took a hike in the fresh air masked of course, I made a gourmet dinner, we all cuddled on the couch and told each other how much we love one another. We never fight and always get along. Everyone agrees with me and always listens to me. Mother’s Day is everyday in my house. I go to sleep with a smile on my face every day and wake up with one every morning. I bet that I probably sleep with one every night all night.

How was everyone's Mother's Day
Oh I almost forgot, I am currently working on starting my own blog with all sorts of advice on how you too can have the perfect life. It will also include advice on what the correct opinions are on everything. I feel so sorry for all the people that are unhappy and ultimately jealous of me. You are all welcome.

I really don't understand the obsession some have with trying to get Hofstra to admit that she isn't happy or that her life isn't perfect. May she just is that happy (then let her enjoy it) or maybe she is living in a fantasy (still-let her enjoy her fantasy). Either way, what is the obsession a person lives and views their life?
Quite the contrary. I think the "obsession" is more with why she would, as well as seaside, would ignore the entire post and just post about how wonderful their day was. It's inappropriate but with some posters it happens over and over. For example, I get into a huge blow out with my husband and come here to vent about it, and the response is "I have been in love with my husband since our eyes locked in high school. I still get butterflies every time he walks in the room. We never fight!!!" It's just about knowing your audience I guess. If someone is venting about how their mother's day sucks, the last thing they want to hear is how someone else had the perfect day because they were with the one's they love and it doesn't get better than that!!!!! They want to hear how your husband is a jack a** sometimes too. No one cares about your lovely day with your wonderful family.
Because you and VB are quite literally OBSESSED with everything I say and my life you've detailed this thread by creating some false drama and nonsense. I guess the people who had an amazing day on Sunday and the best short ribs didn't get YOUR memo about how they were to respond on this thread.
Regarding your "quotes" about my DH and I maybe give some context. That wasn't on a thread about couples fighting, it was about finding your one true love. Way to create a false narrative though.
To end this nonsense with you, I answered the question asked on this thread. Period. How you've managed to take my comment about doing absolutely NOTHING for Mother's s Day and then repeatedly carry on about how that is somehow indicative of a "perfect life" just goes to show how absolutely moronic you are. My comment didn't warrant a reply from you. At all. But you're obsessed as much as you like to deny it. Your verbal diarrhea on every thread is fast becoming a snooze fest.
The fact that you take this all so seriously and get so riled up is, quite frankly, one of the most amusing parts of my day.....
I didn't go back and read all your old posts, I was just generalizing how you come off.
And who posted about the short ribs? I must have missed it because I love me some good short ribs...
Dudeeeeeee, Alexandros in Smithtown! #TheBestShortRibs
Oh thank god it's on Long Island. For a minute I was afraid I was gonna have to go to NJ to get them....

How did the best short ribs I’ve ever had get dragged in ur negative post?
But seriously, I do not think people are “obsessed” with u, they’re just making observations on how ur posts constantly come across. I seriously think they don’t give a flying cucumber if ur life is just as perfect as u make it seem, or if u seriously wake up with a smile every single day. It’s the way u continuously come across, it’s just as simple as that. I mean even in ur and seaside’s comment to the OP in this thread, nothing in both comments show any empathy, or mention any negative Mother’s Day u've had in the past, they’re just super, duper fairy tale life comments. And if u really are a Disney princess after marrying the prince, that’s awesome but that has nothing to do with the underlying message of perfection ur posts always seem to have.
Staying home and doing nothing for Mother's Day is a "fairy tale life"????
Look, if people are secure in their own lives then the comments of strangers on a silly little forum shouldn't matter to them. Period.
- Same here (in response to the comment fun times blah, blah, blah)
- Stayed home
- Relaxed
- Nice dinner
- Not rushing anywhere
- That’s all I need
Sounds pretty fairy tale-ish to me  . But again, there’s really not a problem with ur live being like this if that’s the case (I actually also love staying home, doing nothing and spending time with my family, although I do need some ‘me’ time here and there), it’s the tone of every single post and how it’s perceived. U really don’t see what I and others are trying to say?? I doubt anyone’s losing sleep over this type of comments but I’m sure there are plenty of eye-rolls when the same type of comment keeps being posted by the same person.

I'm saying, why does anyone give a single cr@p about what a stranger on a half dead forum says?? Seriously. Who cares. I eye roll half the $hit I read on here but I realize it's just not worth the energy most days to waste my time commenting incessantly.
I also find it amusing that a few have their panties in a wad over my "exhilarating" Mother's Day of staying home and making my own dinner. It was just another Sunday.

Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day
Not only did I wake up hung over but when I looked out my window, I realized I still lived in the middle of the NJ dump. How dare my husband not relocate me to a mansion in the suburbs for Mother’s Day! He’s so tone deaf.
But then I looked at the silver lining and positivity, as I always do, and realized that it was better than dodging bullets as I was doing the night before in what has now become 1980s trash NYC again!
Op: sorry you couldn’t sleep in for Mother’s Day. I find that my DH hits the mark like every few years. Like leap year or a solar eclipse. Now he just asks what I want or I set expectations. When the kids get older it is easier and better.
I did have a relaxing day because I really was hung over. Lol. We went for a walk and Home Depot because I may be doing a Reno soon (my request).
The best moment was my son who is 12 and still makes me cards. He asked if I really needed anything since my birthday was last week and making me two cards back to back seemed like too much. Thanks kid, the one who absolutely drives me bonkers everyday with school. Appreciate it!

Fun times with my favorite people. What's not to love?
What’s NOT to love: it’s the actual Spending time with my favorite people for me.
Id prefer a day to myself. I think every mom does whether they liked to admit it or not. Not only do I feel like most mothers would prefer it, they actually deserve it.

Many do that now and don’t feel guilty as it is shoved in your face about how you SHOULD spend Mother’s Day and I think that is where so many hard feelings occur. A simple Happy Mother’s Day would be nice though and it seems as the kids gets older, this day changes as they don’t understand the meaning of the day like they did when they made cute cards in school.

It's true! My fantasies these days don't include Brad Pitt or Jason Momoa like they used to. Now it's a day ALL by myself playing my phone games.

There are many that would never come out and say they were upset about their day anyway as that would ruin the look of the perfect family they have formed for social media and anyone outside their home. SMH
Or maybe, there are actually happy people existing in the world. Shocking concept, I know!
OP - I have found when you don't set expectations for others, you're less disappointed. But to another posters point, if you really want your day to go a certain way it's definitely best to be vocal about it. Men tend to need more direction when it comes to stuff like this. lol
Just stop, we ALL are happy with many things in our life. We just can admit that things suck sometimes and others know they are not alone as they have gone through it too.
Honestly my husband reminded the kids (whom I am not too happy with, at least one and they are owing me a pedicure) and got me flowers. My day was really no different than any other Sunday. I didn’t want to have to spend a ton of money at a crowded restaurant as we have BTDT. I have been a mother over 20 years so I have had it all and done it all. It does get upsetting though when the day is not acknowledged by your kids. Seems to be very common with older kids. This is why these “fake” holidays suck sometimes. Then add on social media which has made it worse for many people.
Then you have men who don’t give a crap. Women should probably take their lead lol.
I really don't understand the obsession some have with trying to get Hofstra to admit that she isn't happy or that her life isn't perfect. May she just is that happy (then let her enjoy it) or maybe she is living in a fantasy (still-let her enjoy her fantasy). Either way, what is the obsession a person lives and views their life?
Because some people are both insecure and unhappy in their own lives so they need to project that on others in order to feel better about themselves. It's quite pathetic to put so much thought and energy into a stranger online.
You are so vain that you truly think people are obsessed with you and your life.
You sure do come across as obsessed with Hofstra. You and lululu have something nasty to say, no matter what she posts. Maybe you aren't obsessed but to those looking at all of this, you both sure seem to be.
What do you care if her life is perfect? Maybe she is truly happy with her life. One thing I've learned is that a big part of happiness is perspective. Maybe she has a great outlook on life and that creates true happiness for her. Or maybe she drinks a bottle of wine every day while her kids are at school and that's why she's so happy. Or maybe she married Prince Charming and blue birds tie ribbons in her hair every morning. Whatever it is, she seems to really be happy with her life. WHY DO YOU CARE???
Your constant arguing that no one's life could be that "perfect" only makes you sound jealous, petty, insecure and unhappy. Maybe you're not those things, but your constant posts to Hofstra sure make you sound that way.

I can’t speak for lululu but I work with someone who has to push the, my life is perfect, agenda at any chance they can get. Not saying you should complain and ***** and moan all the time but read your room, just like someone else said. While the question was, how was your Mother’s Day, it was obvious the poster was looking for sympathy that she was not alone in what she went through.
I honestly don’t think anyone is jealous of anyone on this board as they don’t really know what their lives are like outside of this board. People have been caught lying on this board so it’s not odd to think that people exaggerate their lives.

Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day
I will say i don’t think Hofstra post alone was bad, I think quoting Seaside was the issue.
“What Not To Love..”” comment was condescending and a blatant jab of kicking someone when they are down. For some reason many won’t admit it. I feel like that post was basically saying, you’re with your family how could you not love it. But that’s not real life. You could love each other to death in your family but doesn’t mean you always love being around each other.
That post was nothing more but an undercover F U to the OP. It could’ve been worded a hella of a lot better and some empathy goes a long way:

Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day
Sorry Rainy Day that your Mother's Day didn't go as you hoped for; as well as this post taking an odd turn.
I don't normally get involved in BS but I have to point out that way more than 2 people did come on here to say they had a lovely Mother's Day.
The singling out is just so bizarre here. 
In the grand scheme of things, all of you should realize that you are lucky to even have a "Mother's Day" to even celebrate. I'm pretty sure being a Mother is a huge blessing regardless if your day went well or not.

How was everyone's Mother's Day
Ok sorry my post turned into a drama post. Definitely was not my intentions AT ALL. I am glad that most, if not all had a great relaxing Mother's day. We talked yesterday and he said he forgot it was even Mother's Day when he woke up.

How was everyone's Mother's Day
I did not spend mothers day with my children. My dad and my husband took them out and my mom and I had a girls day. The idea of my perfect mother's day is spending zero time with my kids. I spend my life pouring my soul into them. Sunday was about me, not them. If that makes me a bad mom, so be it lol.

You're missing the point. I don't care how perfect your life is, she consistently responds to people asking for advice or simply venting and looking for people in similar situations with a description of her perfect life. That's great, I am happy for anyone that has a perfect life. But it's like if someone comes on after spring break and talks about how upset they are because they had to cancel their travel plans because their husband got laid off and then I go on to say how awesome my break was because my husband got a huge bonus and we went to Hawaii without even mentioning how sorry I am that there spring break sucks. It's a strange mentality to me to be so me me me. And frankly everyone is crying the blues about poor hofstra and I am picking on her - I am pretty sure she's got a thick skin because she sure does dish it out to VB and I highly doubt she's shedding a tear over my comments. But comes at VB time and time again. I'm not sure how people aren't realizing that. She calls her stupid and an idiot. VB doesn't use language like that when dealing with hofstra. She certainly says some things that hofstra has strong reactions to, but she has every right to her own opinion. Anyway, that's my point. I'm gonna try to go back to ignoring her.

Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day

I will say i don’t think Hofstra post alone was bad, I think quoting Seaside was the issue.
“What Not To Love..”” comment was condescending and a blatant jab of kicking someone when they are down. For some reason many won’t admit it. I feel like that post was basically saying, you’re with your family how could you not love it. But that’s not real life. You could love each other to death in your family but doesn’t mean you always love being around each other.
That post was nothing more but an undercover F U to the OP. It could’ve been worded a hella of a lot better and some empathy goes a long way:
But does that surprise you given the source? You never know who a foreign bot is on these boards.

Thank you for articulating in a few sentences what it's taking me so many posts to explain. And everyone else that had a nice mother's day expressed sympathy for the OP.
And FTR I actually lived in NJ for 9 years and loved it - I don't want to sound like I was knocking NJ with my comment to hofstra. lol

OMG YESSS! Something is very "off" about her. It drives me BONKERS that no one else seems to notice or care.

It's like the big pink elephant in the room.
Nobody discusses it.
But it's very very strange

See, I didn't really read her comment that way which I guess is why often times things come across wrong online. There is no tone behind the words to really understand how someone means something.
I read it as she had a nice day with her family, nothing more. Unless she has some issue with the OP I am not sure why the intent would be to say "FU" and be condescending towards her but who knows. In any case, I didn't read it any differently than the other posts where people said they had a nice Mother's Day.
Sash, I agree with you in terms of needing time to yourself. Everyone does. We'd all go crazy if we didn't get some down time here and there. For me, holidays are always family time BUT I'd be lying if I said I don't enjoy my time alone when the kids are at school. Summer can take its time getting here as far as I am concerned. lol
