First, I want to thank everyone on their comments.
Second, I posted the event as a rant, not seeking anything except a vent to allow my steam to escape.
Third, I received a call from my young friend this morning. She wanted to apologize for her cousin again. (Totally not necessary.) Then she told me the cousin had gone home to Florida early (Sorry all you who live in Florida.) She told my friend that she hoped that the friend would not have anything to do with me. I was rude to her! She was only trying to help me get better, because I was too old to know what I was doing. And besides, she could buy nice quilts at Wal-Mart and home-made stuff was just junk in her mind!

I am still laughing!

Oh, yes, my friend told me that the cousin was supposed to have been getting married the first of November, but the young man broke it off! (Smart fellow.)

I ache for the cousin. She is going to be so unhappy all of her life.

If she had said the things to me that she said to you, she would have known what rude is. And we wonder why he broke off the wedding... NOT
I feel bad for your friend though, she can't choose her relatives.

Very smart fellow!!

The young lady sounds SOOO unhappy. Perhaps she has other issues that are clouding her perception and hopefully she will be able to see the light as her life progresses.

I'm still shaking my head in disbelief.

That woman does not have a clue , nor does she realize should should buy a clue.
That being said ... I would have been in the clue business and given her the first one free.

Well, that girl is a piece of work! It's so sad that politeness, manners and respect for your elders is no longer taught. Sadly, she will go on thinking everyone else has a problem and not realize she is the problem.

You know, the cousin actually sounds as if she has a mental illness. Sounds like some women I have known with untreated bipolar disorder.

I am so taken back by the whole affair. Your friend does have a choice and that is not to be like her cousin. Yor friend more than likely came to you for some support. Her time with her cousin was probably dreadful and she needed some one to stand up to her. Negative, critical people wear on the ones around them. My heart goes out to her and you. your friend probably needs your friendship more than ever now.

I agree with all the comments made here! A sad thing to admit but one of my grandaughters acts just like this rude young lady. She has caused all of our family a world of misery. I think they have mental health issues.
