Am I just old fashioned or is this actually rude as hell?
My cousin (25) stayed the night with us and had someone in her ear the entire time last night and literally all day today. Like… we couldn’t even tell if she was talking to us or the person on the phone half the time.
I get being on the phone, I really do but if you’re staying at someone’s house to spend time with them, shouldn’t you actually be present?? Not basically hanging out with someone else the whole time through an earpiece?
It turned into a huge argument, and instead of hearing us out, she screamed at me and my mom and had her dad come get her.
What really pushed me over the edge though… we ended up taking care of her baby half the time. And when he got hurt, he came to us, not even her. That broke my heart a little, honestly.
I’m just so frustrated. I don’t feel like we were asking for much just basic respect and attention while you’re a guest in someone’s home.
Tell me honestly… am I overreacting or would this bother you too?
