I'd be judged because...

katiewhompus · September 2010

This could be a complete flop, but it might be interesting. We normally do the "I judge" threads, but what would you be judged on when someone doesn't know the whole story?

We do our grocery shopping on a weekly basis. One week is all good foods, and one week is all junk foods. When Demon was sick my basket included baby food, Doritos, lunch meat, milk, and cookies. I'm pretty sure I was judged by someone.

1. My house
2. My paycheck
3,. My past wild behaviors

barbbhoww · September 2010

I think we're judged by our neighbors because we only have 1 car. DH has a work van he gets to take home everyday where they pay for his gas and he can use it when he needs to. There is no need for a second car, but I think people think we are broke or can't afford another car but can afford a house.

kd.joseph · September 2010

Oh, I would open a box.

I will be honest there are a lot of threads on here I dont participate in, because people are judging things I have done.

K Byte · September 2010

I know my friends judge us because we don't own a home and have no intention of buying one anytime soon, and for moving all the time.

I think a lot of people on here would judge how much we spent on our wedding, especially knowing that H and I don't have great/well paying jobs. Our parents helped a lot but at the same time they couldn't cover everything so a lot of it fell on us to take care of.

My tattoos.

The things I did when I was in college.

The fact that Ben has never met his real father.

jasmineh7777 · September 2010

I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing that Ben hasn't met Senor Douchebag.
My older brother has seen his biological father a handful of times, and they were all quite bad.

Steph0871 · September 2010

Tattoos/piercings

our Sunday, relaxed wedding (we've already been told it's a horrible idea)

Ditto on the grocery shopping. Sometimes I pick up the strangest things in one trip

My excessive pen/marker obsession

whitts79 · September 2010

I work in a maternity store and I'm a smoker. Sometimes I'll grab a shopping bag from work to carry stuff home on the subway in. The bags have the word maternity written on them clearly and I'm pretty sure people always judge the girl walking with a maternity shopping bag while smoking a cigarette.

Nebb · September 2010

How many guys ive slept with.
How little money I made this year and last year.
That I live in my moms house.

I wouldnt judge "you", I judge him for being an ass. Just like my ex. And he made it worse, he showed up when my son was 3, talk about fvcking with a kids head.

neelynicole · September 2010

I don't work. People have definitely given me the side eye before when they ask what I do and I say I'm basically retired.

There are definitely some that apply to me too. I remember one thread we did (either here or on E) that was "What does your husband do that drives you crazy" and I did most of the things.

leayn · September 2010

1. My 15 tattoos
2. My pup's cropped ears, tail and tattoo
3. Being bisexual

I think most people are like you, but some people probably assume that it was some one night stand or something. Still none of their business, but I can see where some ahole people would judge if they didn't know the whole story.

jasmineh7777 · September 2010

15 Leayn? Tell me about them please.

Anysunrise · September 2010

1. My age
2. I'm a high school drop out. (I did get my GED though)
3. The age difference between my FI and I
4. Being a WoW player
5. Many other things I'm sure I could think of if I had the time.

jasmineh7777 · September 2010

Not wanting kids! I can't believe I forgot that one.

Nebb · September 2010

Ill be honest, most of the things I assume or know people would judge me for are generally justified and I keep them to myself. It just seems silly to be open about it if you know its just going to hurt you the reaction it gets. This doesnt so much apply to me+friends, but on the internet you dont know who is watching or who will use it against you in the future or try to blast you for it. Its just not worth it.

Why would someone judge you because of your age?

allisong23 · September 2010

FI and I are spending the night before the wedding together, and I don't care. I don't think I am doing the "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" thing either.

leayn · September 2010

Jas - I can't quote you for some reason. Hmmm....

I have all different kinds, from flowers to birds to dragons. You can see the dragon that wraps around my thigh in my sig pic. These are the biggest though - the rest are small and cute.

andy71781 · September 2010

Conversely, I don't know if people judging me for the aforementioned things would really hurt me. If it was someone I considered a friend, then yeah I'd be bothered, but just someone that doesn't like me? I'd be less apt to take it personally.

I love how you are judged on the kid issue for both views.

If you want kids you are selfish for bringing another person into an overpopulated world.
If you don't want kids you are selfish for not wanting to sacrifice your current life for a kid.

I think she means people would judge her for getting married at her age? Am I right? Whatevs. My Mom got married at 20 and they've been married 31 years.

I'd be judged on:
- Living in sin
- The percentage of my salary I spend on rent
- My future SIL judges me constantly on not being perfect like she is - yeah my furniture is hand me down, Deal with it!! Ugh.

ohwhynot · September 2010

katiewhompus, you are so darn cute. I can't imagine you driving anyone crazy.

Anyway: I'd be judged for my extremely liberal politics, my general trampiness when I was younger, and my 2 failed marriages.

I'd probably be judged for smoking when I have kids, too. I deserve that judging, although in my defense I never smoked while pregnant or nursing and my kids have no idea I smoked. Really, truly.

jamiefour · September 2010

I would be judged for
being a smoker, living in sin, buying my dog at a breeder and I am sure there are more but I can't think of them.

COkristi · September 2010

I feel like I'm judged because I'm not "technically" using my college degree. I hate when people ask what I do because I don't feel like my job is respected.
