Dear wife of Person upstairs,
Yes your kids are really cute and adorable. However, at 11 pm at night I really don't want to hear them running up and down the floor. I know that you don't have a full time job, and the kids sleep late. I do work a full-time job and am up early.
Dear Boyfriend's daughter,
You are a very sweet girl and are entirely to hard on yourself. However, that does not give you a free pass to comment on the amount of carbs that I eat, when you will eat 1/2 a container of sour cream in one sitting. Also my clothes may be *dorky* but I have always bought my own clothing and have to stretch my pennies. I also do not dress like a 15 year old like your mother does.0 -
Dear D-Bag who takes up four parking spots with one car,
Neither you nor your sub-par vehicle are important enough to hog that much space. What are you compensating for?
Sincerely,
Girl who knows how to park0 -
Dear Aiden, (my boyfriends 7 year old son)
Thank you for telling me that you think I'm beautiful no matter how much weight I lose. You're an amazing kid and you don't even know it. You have such a kind and loving heart. You see the world as a big place full of adventure and fast cars, I envy you sometimes, but I enjoy seeing you so excited when you learn something new. You're polite, responsible, chivalrous, intelligent, and most of all, you're special to me. I know you want a brother or a sister out of your dad and I, but truthfully, I am perfectly happy to only have you. I may not be your biological mom, but I'll come as close as I can. I love you Aiden.
Rawr (means I love you in dinosaur),

This brought tears to my eyes! Sounds like how my husband feels about his non-bio kid/My beautiful babygirl0 -
messed up... will try again0

Dear coworker who called me thunder thighs last week- I just watched you shovel ramen noodles in your mouth at rapid speed, while I ate my deliciously healthy yogurt. How's your dress fitting today? Ps- you have some broth on your chin.
What WHAT?!??! Sounds like someone needs to meet a B in the parking lot!0 -
Dear Tina at 15,
You are not as fat as you think you are. You are not as dumb as you think you are. And no, you do not need someone else to tell you you're special -- someday you'll tell yourself that and mean it.
And you're stronger than you think you are. You've already been through a lot, and you're still compassionate and loving. You just have a lot of anger and hurt inside. But it's OK. You're not crazy -- your life has been crazy so far, and that would make anybody feel that way.
Hang on. Life gets better. You'll do a lot of crying and a lot of hard work on the way, but someday soon you'll be laughing, and you'll feel real joy, and you'll be with a good guy who truly loves you. And you'll have 2 kids who love you even more -- and no, you won't screw them up, because you've already learned the hard way how important love is to a kid.
You're beautiful, and I love you. Really.
Love,
Tina at 42.0 -
Dear Little Sister,
Yes, I understand I am on a "DIET" and a very strict one at that, but why do you have to flaunt that while I order a platter of LASAGNA and CHICKEN MARSALA at The Old Spaghetti Factory and mock me because I asked him what the lightest salad dressing was! Yes, I need to know, so I can meet my macros. While you laugh at me, that Lasagna plate was the best thing I've had in a long time and it was carefully selected so when split into thirds it would fit my macros perfectly.
You may laugh at my attempts, but my 30lb loss and having the ability to outlast you in twister (you being a ten year old and all) means that maybe I might know what I am doing and don't need your mocking air quotation marks for the handsome waiter.
Your BIg Sis,

Dear MPF friends:
You are trying to "lose" weight, not "loose" weight.
Best regards,

LMAO! This was great!0 -
Dear Gym Crush,
I love how you light up when I walk into the gym. It makes me feel special, something that I haven't felt in many years. You definitely make working out even more enjoyable. I also love the fact that you are so shy that you stumbled over saying hey to me the other day. At least I'm not the only one who feels like they are an awkward 14 year old. Please keep smiling at me, it makes my whole day. Maybe one day we will actually speak beyond saying hello.
Signed,
Someone who is even shyer than you0 -
Dear sweet 6 year old son,
I know you got confused last night at 12:30am when you got up to go potty and saw that your dad had the light on downstairs and was cleaning up toys. The cleaning lady is coming today and she doesn't appreciate having to wade through a layer of toys while she cleans. There was absolutely no need to stand in the hallways and yell for your little brother and baby sister to get up because it was time to go to school. They both woke up and could not get back to deep sleep. You passed right out. Your little brother cried from then on about every 45 minutes all through the night. And every time I went to calm him down, I had the insane urge to reach up to the top bunk and shake you awake.
Your baby sister was equally cranky all night. So, next time you are confused, please go downstairs and verify whether it is morning. No need to be the oracle that announces the coming of the daylight.
Sincerely,
Your extremely tired working mother who is having difficulty staying away from candy today0 -
Dear Roadrage Jack@$$,
I'm on my way to work...at 0630 in the morning...not in a real big hurry to get there. I'm in the right hand lane doing 3 mph OVER the speed limit...

Dear Lou (stray dog I've been trying to catch for 2 days)
I really wish you would trust me enough to get in my car. I realize you're probably still waiting for someone that dumped you but you are going to starve or get hit by a car.
Although I love all the time I'm spending sitting on a curb throwing food to you I would rather get you somewhere safe. Please give me a break when I go back this evening and follow the fried chicken into my car.
Sincerely,
Crazy Dog Lady0 -
Dear mfp-ers who have a hard on for reporting me...
Lighten the hell up. Offense can't be given, it can only be taken. And stop thinking anything i write is being directed at ~you~. It's not.

Dear teenage son of mine,
There's a reason I gave you a cel phone and I pay the bill every month. It's called "communication". I know you live with your father and there's a time difference, but that's no reason you can't call and leave a message or a text. I miss you like crazy and haven't seen you in almost a year. Me texting/calling you is getting old. This is the only way we are able to communicate and it's very important to me as I've explained a few times already. Seriously. If you don't figure out how to use your phone I'll shut the damn thing off till you move down here with me in August.
Dear stupid customers at work,
Just because I'm not standing DIRECTLY in front of the cash register does not mean I'm not working, it just means I'm productive. And seriously, I don't know the prices of every damn item in the freakin store, I just work at the register. And lastly, your at a military store.... you WILL be asked for ID and you won't get your shyt till I see it, which means, your friends who aren't military/dependents can't buy shyt either.0 -

Dear girl I see coming out of class while waiting for my class,
You, my dear, are absolutely beautiful. Possibly the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. You have perfect hair and gorgeous skin. I've always thought that Middle Eastern women were the most beautiful, and you affirmed that belief for me. Seriously, you're a hottie.
I may sound like a stalker, but I really do love to stare at you and admire your beauty.
Cheers to you for being so naturally beautiful. :flowerforyou:0 -
Dear me,
Get your butt off MFP and do some flipping push-ups!

omg... I related to this so much (although I'm only 20) and it almost made me cry. The only reason I'm not crying right now is because I don't want to get my tears on my text book, but dammit, this is great.0 -
Dear Bailey (my puppy),
Just because I'm laying on the floor exercising doesn't mean I want you to put your 100lbs of adorableness on top of me. I especially don't want you to go and get your toy and drop it directly on my tummy as I try and do crunches. Please entertain yourself with your toy until I am done and then I will cuddle with you.
Love,
Mommy0 -
Dear MPF friends:
You are trying to "lose" weight, not "loose" weight.

To shoppers in the grocery store:
I have a back injury. I can do short term shopping if I lean on a grocery cart, but if my shopping will take more than 15 minutes I use a riding cart. When I am shopping, please don’t get ahead of me then block my path. Please teach your children what “excuse me” means when they block my way and stand there and stare at me. Please don’t dart in front of me and expect me to stop on a dime when I know you see me coming. And, to the smart-*kitten* little punk who was showing off to his pal when he bent over, parted his *kitten* cheeks and farted in my face: Your mother would die if she knew how you disrespect others less fortunate than yourself. Not to worry, you will get yours. You may think you are big and bad to a disabled person, but there’s always someone bigger and badder waiting in your future.
From: The person who is so fed up with being disrespected, she tearily reported you to the store manager. (Too bad we couldn’t find you.)
