I really hope these ladies see this hoping they realize how wrong they were.

A friend of mine was working at the craft show inside the WFCU today. She left her post and went to get a coffee at the Tim Horton's inside the arena. She was standing in the HUGE line and pulled out her lipstick to touch it up. A pair of women a few people behind her, likely a mother in her 40s and daughter in her 30s started saying terrible things about my friend to each other. They were talking low, but she has amazing hearing and heard every word. They said the lipstick was a waste of time, and my friend is still ugly. They joked about how she's fat and hoped she wasn't in line for doughnuts. They said that they felt bad for whatever man has to "claim" her" and they didn't stop there. My friend wanted to let them know that she heard everything that they said, but she was embarrassed, figuring other people probably heard them as well...

I have something that I want to say to these two women. SHAME ON YOU. You are terrible excuses for human beings. If you are, in fact, mother and daughter, then even more shame on mom. What a disgusting example to set for your daughter. My friend does not deserve to be talked to like that - NO one does. But this is an absolutely beautiful young girl, who is thin and could probably USE a couple of doughnuts. She's smart, she's funny, and she's an amazing mother. On top of that? She's in a GREAT relationship with a man who was more than lucky to "claim" her and he knows it. She's a great friend and you'd be lucky to have someone of that caliber in your life. Your negativity is appalling - but we will choose to use this as a teaching moment, for now NOT to raise our kids. So for that, thank you. Outside of that, give your heads a shake, grow up, and stop being jerks.
