What is the worst thing you've ever done to someone in your life?
I have a lot. A few really stick out and I've since learned from them. They remind me constantly to not be such a jackass. They certainly aren't things I'm proud of, but they're monumental pivoting points in my life.
-As a teenager I absolutely hated my mother with an undying passion. I'm not sure if anyone remembers but I'm pretty sure I told the story on here before that my mother was very mentally and physically abusive during my childhood (physically only to my three older sibling. I was the baby so I was spared being punched in the face) So one year, I think I was sixteen, I decided I wasn't going to wish my mother "happy mother's day" despite the fact that by that point she was much better with controlling her temper than before. She got home, no one had left her anything, none of my siblings called to talk to her and I purposefully didn't wish her a "happy mother's day". I was so so proud of myself for finally taking a stand, I sat on the couch feeling almost accomplished. Once she realized all four of her children completely abandoned her, the only word I can use is "devastated". Absolutely devastated. She came into the living room, looked at me and just began weeping uncontrollably. I was so goddamn stubborn and filled with angsty pride I walked right past her and into my bedroom. It took me a while to realize what an awful thing I'd done and how cruel I'd been. My mom had improved and she was working on her anger problems and I was all too glad to throw it in her face. It wasn't right and I regret it so much.
I'll keep it to just this one for now.
