Ready for a cool story about jealous bitches? Actually this is just a rant to make me feel better. It's finals week, and I'm on edge. Okay, here goes.
So, I generally don't have experience with people competing with me grade-wise because I never made friends with people in my classes (I am a commuter making it difficult to make friends at school). Over the last year I befriended a girl who 75% of the time she is really cool and fun to talk to, but the other 25% of the time she is a complete bitch. This is especially true when we receive grades (we have had several classes together in the past, and have even worked on group assignments together). I think she is under the impression that she is more intelligent than I am because every time I have performed better on exams and assignments than her, she has turned ice cold and basically writes it off as luck. The thing is, I have consistently done better than her in all of our classes, so I don't see how she keeps coming to the same conclusion. Anyways, I want you to read a little AIM conversation I just finished having with her, and I want you to tell me if I completely over reacted or if she is crazy. Thanks in advance, because I didn't know psychology majors could actually be like this and not be able to psychoanalyze themselves.
Me: I was hoping he would post our grades tonight

Me(9:27:53 PM): well with the extra credit I have 100%
Me(9:28:02 PM): without the extra credit I have like a 92 average
*very awkward pause*
Me(9:29:36 PM): did you do okay?
Hater(9:35:34 PM):

Hater(9:37:29 PM): i think he likes you more than me
Hater(9:37:29 PM): in fact im sure of it
Me(9:37:50 PM): because I got an A?
Me(9:37:53 PM):that's not really fair to me
Me(9:37:59 PM): that you would say that
Me(9:38:23 PM): I don't think getting a hundred on tests has anything to do with how much a person likes you
Hater(9:39:00 PM): no no im not saying that you didnt deserve an A at all
Hater(9:39:03 PM): thats not what im saying
Hater(9:39:19 PM): it's just that he's always ****ing me over that's all
Me(9:39:48 PM): well you just said it's because he likes me better
Me(9:39:50 PM): so I mean
Me(9:39:57 PM): that's basically saying he likes me better that's why I got an A
Hater(9:40:48 PM):
okay my bad.. didn't mean it like that
Hater(9:40:48 PM): you totally deserve an A+
Me(9:40:53 PM): okay
ME SIGN OFF ANGRY
Hater(9:46:11 PM):
[Offline IM sent 13m ago] hope ur not mad, i didn't mean it like that
ME SIGN ON ANGRY
Me(9:59:23 PM): I just need to let you know so that I can calm down that I am extremely angry about the conversation we just had
Me(10:00:02 PM): this is not the first time you have made a comment like this to me...i feel like int he past when I have performed better on a test you immediately tell me it's because the professor likes me better or something similar
Me(10:00:08 PM): and it's really frustrating
Me(10:00:31 PM): I don't want to interrupt your studying but I think you really need to reconsinder how you vent your feelings especially when they are directed at other people even if you aren't doing it consciously
Me(10:01:09 PM): I don't know if you just got any of my IMs but I just had to let you know
Me(10:01:40 PM): good luck studying I need to cool down I will be back to normal in either 15 minutes or tomorrow, you know how I am.
Hater(10:01:58 PM):
yea i got ur im's thanks for your opinion
SHE SIGNS OFF ANGRY , or blocks me.
I was really angry when I first started writing this post, but now I'm just laughing at myself. End of rant.
