Ode to the Rude person at MOC

Well, I'm in a slightly better mood today. Or not. Last night was MOC's church night and I somehow got suckered into going. I really wasn't suckered. My mom asked if I would take my little brother since she couldn't go and I said yes. Really no suckering involved. Anyway, it was nice to run into some familiar faces that I haven't seen for YEARS. Ugh, getting so old that I can use that sentence is kind of depressing. But you know what?! Something happened that made me sssoooooo angry. I saw this person (names and identities have been changed to protect the innocent) that I have known for years. Our families know each other and I've actually been on vacation with this person's family. Nothing bad every happened between us, so when this person didn't even acknowledge that I was there, I walked right up to him/her and said, "Hey, _____. How are you?" He/She didn't even make eye contact!!! UGH! But he/she some how mustered up the strength to say, "Fine." No, 'hey good to see you' or even a courtesy 'How are you?'  Nope, nothing. So, I said, "How is (this person that I was close to) been doing?" And his/her reply: "Fine.".............Seriously? That's it. Whatever. I can live with that. I assure you that I'm not going to lose sleep because you harbor some ill will towards me. But that's not it! After realizing that this fine "christian" person wasn't going to make ANY attempt to even be civil with me, I began to talk to someone with a few more manners. Out the corner of my eye, however, I see this person walk up to a guy and start whispering in his ear. He's not facing me, so when this person finished talking, the guy turns completely around to look at me over his shoulder, makes eye contact with me, and then immediately turns back to talk to him/her. 

Ok, new paragraph. Now I'm not a paranoid person. I'm not even a person who cares all that much about what people think. I'm not a moron either. I think Captain Go-Out-of-His-Way-To-Look-Over-His-Shoulder made it obvious that they were discussing me. But it just makes me angry that people can be so incredibly rude. Now I can go one of two ways. If I don't like you; A.) you know it, more than likely because I told you that I didn't like you or B.) I can be completely phony and never let you know that I don't like you out of sheer courtesy.  I'm gonna wrap this up, basically because I actually don't care that much about this situation and I'm slightly comforted by the fact that I think this person is miserable in their own life (forgive me, Lord). So, in summary, I think we could use a little more common courtesy in our society. If I can act phony and pretend that I care what you're saying, I suspect that you can do the same. At least you can formulate some sort of meaningful thought. All I'm saying is that most people have a vocabulary bigger than the word "fine." And if you can't summon the strength to do that, at least don't send me into a whole new dimension of pissed off by talking about me while I'm still in the room. Next time I run into this person, I'm picking option A.
