So yesterday, I went to tennis practice and I arrived early. I was parking my car but I accidentally hit something since I moved in too far. This caused me to spend at least 15 minutes freaking out and crying because not only did I do that with a car I've only had for two weeks, but others had arrived early too (including the coach), and I was pretty sure they were all staring at me.
I had to get myself together before practice actually started. Soon before the time practice was supposed to start, my best friend parked right beside me. So I got out and we looked at the damages to my car, and luckily, there was no noticeable damage to the front bumper where I had hit it. We were walking towards the rest of the team and I thought everything would be alright. But of course, one of my teammates (who I already didn't like too much) asked if my car was okay. I didn't know what exactly to think though, because she was smiling while asking, so it almost felt like she was making fun of me rather than showing concern. Not only that, but it also confirmed that everybody certainly did notice what happened, causing me to feel even more embarrassed. This caused me to respond very rudely and I said, "Don't ask about it. I'm already embarrassed enough, especially since everyone was watching me." Because honestly, I felt like I was on the verge of breaking down again and I just didn't wanna be reminded of the situation... especially when it felt like she was laughing at me. My coach had everyone start the warm-up routine, but called me over and sat down with me. I knew this couldn't mean anything good. All she basically did was scold me. Told me to apologize to the girl who asked if my car was okay. Told me that everyone makes mistakes and I just need to laugh at myself. Then, she proceeded to ask me what was "really wrong", and I just told her I was emotionally unstable. I didn't have to give her the details. Then she made the jerk move by responding with something like, "Ash, you need to let things go." I just felt like walking out at that point and heading home because I couldn't deal with it anymore. Of course, I was breaking down crying once again at this point, because all she did was irritate the situation when I already had my crap somewhat pulled together. Not only that, but she was so harsh and didn't even seem to try understanding my feelings. One thing's for sure, I'm definitely not looking forward to attending practice today. I've had a growing dislike for her ever since she essentially belittled my feelings by telling me to just "let it go." I'm not exactly fond of people acting like that. Especially when she acted like she's been in my shoes, saying, "I know it's hard..." when really, she doesn't realize how hard it is for me. Can anyone else relate? I know this post is kind of long, but I needed to get this off my chest in hopes that someone here will |
