Brighid,
Thanks for knowing why it hurt my feelings. I think it was the bluntness of the response, combined with the fact that she offered me something and then didn't follow through, that felt deflating. I would never have asked her for a matzoh ball, and was actually surprised when she said she'd bring me one. But once she said that, i looked forward to it and viewed it as a way t and I could have a nice emotional connection. So when it never happened, i felt disappointed and sad.
