[DropMeOut]

OK well maybe I should clarify a little more. There is nothing wrong with crying as such, yes it is a human trait and everything. That wasn't really what I was getting at.

My point was - she cries ALL the time. Over trivial things that really don't warrant crying over, such as having to nominate someone (OK I'll give her the letter from kids thing, but... she will get to see them real soon anyway!!)

My issue with it is she does it ALL the time, like 'waahhhh boo hoo I have to nominate someone wahhhh'... like, if someone told her it was going to rain she would probably cry. That would be fine if she was 8 years old or somethiing - but considering she's a 35-year old 'grown' woman I'm finding it really grating now.

It was her 'poor me' outburst last night about 'boo hoo I don't even get to read my letter from the most important people in my life' which sent me over the edge and prompted me to make this thread. I just felt angry, like 'darling... there are people in the world with REAL things to cry about... plus you are getting PAID more money than most people will ever see for this, AND you'll get to see your kids in a matter of days anyway!!'

So that was my point. I mean what would she be like if a loved one died or something (God forbid)?!? She'd probably IMPLODE!!
