please don't reply to my twitter

I used to have only one twitter account -- now I have two since talking about my infertility got responses like this from an old high school friend that has 2 kids without any worries of infertility:

ME : "bleh another pregnancy announcement on my facebook. It sucks so bad to be the infertile one all the time"
HER: "there are some pluses to not being preggo/no kids - sleep, good health, free time, money, happily married, less stress, etc"



ME: "being a big baby by avoiding SIL's friend's baby, but I don't want to be reminded of my infertility on a day like today"
HER: "go see baby, then come to my house, hang with my 2 for a while, leave balanced and content with your life"


What a bitch!

  2. Wow, that second one?? What an oblivious, self-satisfied thing to say! I'm with you on two Twitter accounts; I now have two TTC blogs!

  3. What a bunch of stupid and terrible comments. My response to the first one is: "yes, those are benefits, if you are living child-free by choice..which I am not". Dumb.

  6. That is awful - but I wouldn't have created two accounts. Why? 1) I would have made sure on twitter that she got an earful about what those comments are really saying or making you feel (I'm all about putting things in perspective to people who think they are putting it into perspective for me) and 2) I would just have blocked her after telling her off. *W*O*W*

  7. Wow! How clueless is she.

  8. Sounds like she might be unhappy with her own situation. I think you should let her know that those things are hurtful.

  9. Yep...or how about when someone offers to give you their kid so you change your mind about having kids...??? People are dumb.

  10. I'm sorry, I think I'd be one of those people who posts back explaining that I'd rather be spending money on my children than having them. And I'll take the stress of worrying about my children, helping them with their homework, feeding them, bathing them, trying to make sure they don't kill each other or anyone else over the stress of shots every night followed by two weeks of waiting, hoping, praying this will be the last time I'll have to do that. And anyone who thinks that's not a strain on a marriage? Where we walk around thinking, "If I slept with someone else, maybe there's a chance...if I timed it well..." or feeling like your husband will dump you for someone he can build a family with. No stress there!

    (And since when does having kids make you unhealthy. Did I miss that day in health class?)

    Ugh, I hate your friend. I don't blame you for opting out though. Stupidity can be contagious and you don't want to get it on you.

  11. UGH! I can totally get having two seperate accounts.

  12. OMG. I have no words. Actually, I have plenty of words, but they are not polite, and only semi coherent. I volunteer to be part of the infertile posse that gives these fertile asshats a piece of our collective mind.

  13. oh yeah, b/c infertile people sleep all the time, have TONS OF MONEY from the cheap IF treatments, have stress free lives and PERFECT marriages.

    Ignorant bitch.
