i went to see grandmother for first time recently. she was old but seemed fairly lucid. she looked at my (cute) DH and said 'you got lucky... the {snippy sound} ones always get lucky.' please tell me she wasn't calling me ugly. she died after and she was my link to my heritage and past. she was from italy and italy is my special place. now when i think of italy, i think of my grandmother meeting me for the first time and telling me i am ugly- in front of my DH even.

You'll be super lucky if you forget whatever it is that the old crow said ! You're happy and have a hot DH who loves you... you met this woman once and it really should have no bearing on how you see yourself or your comfort with yourself... [ Reply | More ]
