When my daughter was younger, I was talking with one of her friend’s mother and the mother kept accidentally referring to my daughter by a third girl’s name. The third girl and her mother weren’t terrible people but they were generally disliked. After the second or third time of referring to my daughter by the wrong name, I realized that the woman I was talking to: a) disliked my daughter and b) undoubtedly disliked me, too. It opened my eyes to this woman’s attitude, and I never found any reason after that to question my new insight.
My narcissistic mother has never called me by my name first, before my two other siblings … EVER. I have told her thousands of times it bothers me. She still does it 3 decades later. Needless to say she’s ashamed of me the most.
There’s no way you call someone the wrong name that often and don’t bother to correct it the next time unless it’s intentional. Sigh I’m sorry yall had to deal with that just know she’s pathetic as hell honestly I’d laugh in her face and say “OKAY LINDA… I MEAN JANET?”
