This happened earlier today....
Ben: You alright, boy?
Maman: I think so. Why?
Ben: Cos' today marks 9 months since your break-up?
Maman: Oh, you remembered. I'm alright, I think.
Ben: Oh good, cos I sooooo need to bitch to you about what an ass Ken was last night. He...
Maman: (cuts in) You don't get it, do you?! When I said "I think", what I meant to say was I'm not o-k-a-y! And why're you people always coming to me when you have problems with your dickhead boyfriends anyway?! Why me?! Haven't any of you paid any attention whatsoever to my love life over the past 9 months?! It's virtually non-existent! There's a fine line between being fucking alone and being fucking lonely, and I AM fucking-lonely!!! So could you please be a little bit more sensitive and spare me the "Dr Love" moment and not make my life seem any more pathetic than it already is?!?!?!
(hangs up.)
I'm sorry for the unnecessary outburst, Benjie. I really am.
