com·plain Verb /kəmˈplān/
Synonyms:
- verb: repine, grumble, lament, moan

- local authorities complained that they lacked sufficient resources
- “You never listen to me,” Larry complained
- we all complained bitterly about the food
before my friends/boyfriend/random people, my mum had to bear the brunt of my complaining. when i was younger i remember i used to complain about ANYTHING she cooked. i still ate it but things were always too hot. hot as in temperature, well most of the time. and if it was ice cold, then it was still too hot. but hot as in spicy :/ for anyone who had the misfortune to cook for me when i was younger have sometimes considered replacing the salt with rat poison. but then they'd know i'd probably complain that the food smelt weird.
i don't complain about food any more, i've definitely grown out of the too hot too spicy too anything thing, i now complain about anything else possible. but in spite of all the complaining, i feel that i maintain a cheery disposition (the bf disagrees) most of the time anyway. the secret to this, of course, is obviously the complaining.
reasons why i THINK i complain.
#1 i enjoy it. SIMPLES
#2 having complained about something, i find it infinitely easier to deal with for example today i've complained about getting up/going to uni/speaking to my bf/spending time with my bf and it seriously has made my day much easier.
but i have come across a huge problem. there are some things that you can't complain about. things you're not allowed to complain about. things that are too awful to tell anyone else like i wouldn't care if that man/woman/boy/girl suddenly became terminally ill. these are things you can't share with anyone. but there is a solution to that yes? complain that you can't complain.
