He is freaking hilarious.<br /><br />I have to say after reading what he wrote...anyone who doesn't like him must be lacking a sense of humor. I love his honesty (i never really wanna see this girl again)...there's really nothing wrong with considering some people as being nonexistent.

I don't know why...but it is a fact of life for just about everybody. It is a lesson I am passing on to my children. Focus on and put energy into those who do and let go of those who don't. I teach my kids to apologize. Occasionally, my daughter has had people who wouldn't accept an apology...it's "that girl thing" going on. When that happens, I teach her to have enough SELF RESPECT (for teenage girls...really?) to say "I have already apologized, if you don't accept my apology, there is nothing I can do about it." and then drop it. Sometimes a friend is lost...but if that friend won't accept an apology without telling the whole world the "drama"...(as well as trusted secrets from when the were "friends")...then she is better off without. Those who know and love Tucker will forgive his weaknesses...because they can see his strengths.(Let's) GO FLY A KITE!!https://www.blogger.com/profile/12924590911734470629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-74136246162400611592009-04-22T09:14:00.000-07:002009-04-22T09:14:00.000-07:00that was jacquie...I always do that on my mom's co...that was jacquie...I always do that on my mom's computer!julzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00924314131413268493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-71156900333506118972009-04-22T09:13:00.000-07:002009-04-22T09:13:00.000-07:00I give tucker lots of credit for apologizing...esp...I give tucker lots of credit for apologizing...especially calling the mom to apologize that takes some guts!!<br /><br />Sounds like she is crazy both mom and daughter...I went to two dances in high school partly because I can't STAND drama in high school....it's ridiculous and childish!!

I think the real problem is that you assumed this woman would be rational, which was a perfectly logical assumption. Clearly that was not the case as it is with way too many women I know. <br /><br />And after reading Tucker's guest post how could she not just fall in love with him? He's hilarious and brilliant. And, by the way, I'm married to a man with little or no tact. While it's not ideal he's still pretty awesome too. Chalk that one up to you live and learn and some females are just crazy!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07833879362704573022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-35360145564161051182009-04-21T17:29:00.000-07:002009-04-21T17:29:00.000-07:00Missed you so much I had to go and visit you in pe...Missed you so much I had to go and visit you in person. Don't be so silent, I enjoy your writing and thoughts too much.<br /><br />In other news:<br /><br /><br />Ummm Wow! That's a beaut there! Can't believe Tuck didn't fill me in on any of these juicy details today. I'm sad that this woman could be so juvenile and ridiculous. Mostly it just puts her in a really bad light. You didn the right thing, and so did Tucker. Oh, and you should know, Tucker used a GREAT deal of tact today in talking to me. I'll have to tell you the story, not on here. But, you'd be proud. Finally, love Tuckers guest post, too funny!Allyson & Jerehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09899323132507414349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-87118510738960415422009-04-21T15:23:00.000-07:002009-04-21T15:23:00.000-07:00Yes I did miss the posts, of course I just then ca...Yes I did miss the posts, of course I just then call you to see whats up!<br /><br />Oh the angst of being a teenage girl..I think Tucker did a great job and am a little sad the mother let emotion keep her from being an influence for good. I know how it goes, we had a similar situation with Brenn but cooler heads prevailed and I think all the way around lessons were learned.<br /><br />See you when the antibotics kick in!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13371527018787974580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-175061185040199922009-04-21T12:32:00.000-07:002009-04-21T12:32:00.000-07:00I have also missed you.

I have checked sometimes 3 times a day to see if you had said anything, I was starting to get worried.<br /><br />Mothers can sometimes be overprotective as is the case with the girl. I hope Tucker can still go to prom and have a good time - he deserves it.<br /><br />Thanks for breaking your silence. :)Jenn C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12738023200519845742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-43096435389919714352009-04-21T12:15:00.000-07:002009-04-21T12:15:00.000-07:00Yes, I noticed you were missing. Yes, I missed you...Yes, I noticed you were missing. Yes, I missed you terribly!!!<br /><br />Now, on to the other issue...<br />First of all, ohhhhh my gosh, people can be so ridiculous. I wish I could say I can't believe this, but unfortunately I can believe every bit of it. I think you did exactly the right thing by having him call. And, I really don't think it backfired. Here's why: wonderful, although possibly aggravating lesson learned. No bad will ever come (in the long run) from extending a humble hand of apology. Even if the only good is that your boy can rest easy knowing he did the right thing, he did all he could. Now, it's on someone else. (In case you're wondering, which probably you aren't, I am dealing with an issue exactly like this one right now. I have apologized over and over to someone. The person simply does not want the situation to be better. This person prefers drama. So, I'm done now. I did all I could do. Movin' on.<br /><br />Ok, sorry for the terribly long comment. This just really hit home with me today! I say, well done you, and well done to your son!Snarky Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17893940815826970998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-85760070386331731162009-04-21T11:56:00.000-07:002009-04-21T11:56:00.000-07:00Wow!

If he had been talking to her, she might not have misunderstood or gotten offended.<br /><br />Apologizing really was the right thing to do, even though it didn't turn out well. But it's a good lesson for him to learn. Sometimes we offend people without even realizing it, and we need to make it right.<br /><br />And, yes, I did notice you were gone.superpaigehttp://paige.ericksonfamily.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750966252794891890.post-3204185455407674792009-04-21T10:45:00.000-07:002009-04-21T10:45:00.000-07:00Cindy is funny.

Learning to apologize for something he doesn't think he did wrong will only benifit him in marriage to come. The drama girl - the reason I am SOOOO glad I had boys. The parents - They are stupid. Just be glad that the chances of said girl and said son will never cause you to have said inlaws. As spencer so eloquently says - Drama sucks!
