i HATE people that whine all the damn time!!!! people who constantly need to remind you of what illness they have, what accident they have been in, everydamnthing!! people will assume you know nothing about their experiences.. when in fact you have gone through some of the same things, sometimes worse! they dont know about it because you dont whine about it! what is the need for people to let everyone know this stuff? i would assume that person needs attention.. afterall, the same type of people always want to say they have had the worst type of spouse, the worst type of illness, the worst type of everything. WTF? im sorry you think your life has been so much worse than everyones... its not. get a clue- people feeling sorry for you is NOT people loving you.

They whine because they need to be heard. they aren't being heard in their personal life. How sad for them.

Some people hold in that pain and turn it into anger toward others.

There are whiners, those that have been whiners and let's face it, those that have every reason to whine right now. It's all how you spin it...
How many of us have had life changing, altering experiences that has the strength to change life as we know it. Do some of us whine while we adjust to those life changing circumstances...yes, how many of those complaining about whining can claim they have been through such an experience and yet not whined for a moment, let alone not ever whined or felt the impact of such a life changing experience? My guess is....not many and those that have, more power to them!!
Loss of jobs, homes, marriages, etc can come from something someone may consider an inconvenience of whining. It often takes time for those to overcome their circumstances and often are the center of those stories of incredible resourcefulness and success.
Be careful what you wish for should be right up there with be careful with what you are critical about what others whine about. You just never know until it is you...

having a life changing experience IS difficult... i know ive had quite a few... and im not talking about people in the middle of going through all that, i understand how there are times in someones life where their circumstances are in control of everything they say or do. that is a totally different thing that what i am talking about. im talking about the people who have their lives together, yet its never good enough. im talking about people who complain about the same things day in and day out, that probably happened years ago. im talking about people who really DONT care about what the people around them may or may not be going through, the focus has to be 100% on them at all times. when i wrote this thread i was in the middle of dealing with the same person, over the same issues for the, i dont know gazilionth time? so maybe i came across as more harsh than i wanted to, but im ready to tear my hair out over it by now! i know of lots of people who would love to have this persons circumstances, yet this person only wants to dwell on what they perceive to be an unfair life. at some point, you have to look around and realize that life is what you make of it, and your past circumstances dont have to define you. and i vented on the thread, because its much better than me snapping on this person.

JC... Yeah it is probably better for you to vent here then at the person directly. BUT, I can see how some may get all defensive about it...some may even think that you are pointing a finger at them on here. Hopefully that is not the case and that you are doing a little better in the realm of this person that made you post this. And trust me, I think that most everyone here has had to deal with someone like this in real life... Unfortunately there is really not a lot that you can do about it...even if you confront the person.

no this thread wasnt started because of anyone on here... sorry if anybody thought that I'm sorry, JC. I guess I was particularly sensitive and defensive that day. I can certainly understand the type of whiner you were referring to because I hear people whine about their laundry load that is behind while I'm making arrangements to have my neck fused or tail bone removed. No worries. I apologize for taking offense. Kittenhart, you know how much I adore you. Thanks for being so supportive. I'm sorry if I offended someone with my obvious sensitivities. I guess as long as we are whining, I've been officially diagnosed today with high blood pressure (gee, I wonder why) and an underactive thyroid. If I don't get finanical relief with a settlement on this most recent accident soon, I'm going to pay my house pmt by the hair of my chinny, chin, chin....

i wonder what some of these people would do if they actually had something really bad happen to them... some people are ridiculous! I actually know someone like this (a close family member who was the queen of whining about trivial stuff) who did have something serious happen -- her (young) husband was diagnosed with cancer. She no longer whines... about anything. (She's also had a child recently so I think motherhood also has changed her perspective somewhat, and forced her to mature.) She has admitted that she never knew how good she had it and regrets not appreciating it more. I guess it's a good lesson to learn, but it's sad that it's a lesson accompanied by tragic circumstances.
