Yep I totally just said that in the title. I am one of those people who do not love the holidays, in fact I despise them. Find me around September/October and you hear me growling it is more than likely because Christmas decorations are out before Halloween and Thanksgiving. Do not get me wrong when I was a kid all the way up until I was 16 or 17, I absolutely loved Christmas and holidays. Now I just absolutely hate it so much.
Most of the reason I hate holidays is because my family never gets together now. Holidays to me are spent with family, and friends while celebrating. Now most of the Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Years I am at home doing nothing while watching everyone post on social media about how they are out of town celebrating with their family. Just realize that if someone is withdrawn during the holidays, it might be because they do not have anyone to spend it with. Holidays can really bring down people, and they can settle into depression easily. It is supposed to be the most glorious time of year, when really it is the time I dread most.
Please, if you are one of those people who love the holidays, take time to realize that not everyone loves them. Those who dislike the holidays do not need it rubbed in their face about it. It really is painful when all people do is cut you down, and make you feel horrible about not enjoying this time of year. Just do your best to get through the holiday season.
Yes, I do love How the Grinch stole Christmas, mostly because he understands me. (Yes, I know the Grinch is fake).
