My mum got some new bathroom rugs and was going to throw the old ones away. I liked the old bathroom rugs so I saved them by saying that maybe my boyfriend can have them in his bathroom, as he hasn't got any. They are nice rugs, and still in a nice condition, and when I asked him if he wanted them he said yes.
So my mum washed them, dried them, then gave them to my boyfriend to take home. But later when he phoned me, he told me that he didn't like them and that he threw them away (but told me not to tell my mum in case it hurt her feelings).
I don't know why, but I feel quite upset that he just threw away 2 perfectly good bathroom rugs. They've been in our bathroom for years, and I thought I was saving them by asking my boyfriend if he wanted them. Now I feel sorry for them, as now they are never going to be safe and warm in a bathroom again.
Also I feel sorry for my mum for taking the time to wash them so they are nice and fresh before happily giving them a new home. I know she doesn't know, but I still feel sorry for her.
I just feel sad now. But it makes me feel better to share it on WP.
