You know you wanna b***h about the twatwaffles in your life today!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
When a woman you know has gotten pregnant 3 times with various men and has aborted every single one of those pregnancies because she doesn't believe the father-who-could-have-been is intelligent enough to make a smart enough baby for her. Gets married and is then pregnant for the fourth time, keeps baby because partner is smart enough, so baby will be smart. JAKFEJWLKJFLEJWA

That makes my TW seem like a saint, but I still need to share. My DH is the one who does the groceries (although all he ever has to do is ask and I'll stop on my way home). I'm the one who gets up first and makes us both espresso in the morning. Yesterday, I let him know it was the last of it so he needed to get it - and he decided not to go or to tell me that he wasn't going to the store. So this morning, I get up and nothing. No coffee. Just an empty jar and an 'Oh yeah, I was supposed to get that, wasn't it?'.
@Sailing_Mama All TWs are valid! That's just one of those things that is aggravating, like this coffee situation could have been avoided had he just mentioned he wasn't able to get it.
ETA: @lulu1180 right??? Another spoiler box just in case of TW
NOT to bring politics into this at all, but I am pro-life (within reason, i.e. mom's health, baby's health, rape, incest, etc, but would never ever tell another woman what to do with her body or that her choices are right/wrong and I very much support Planned Parenthood) and I'm choosing now to have a child at a time in my life when I think is right for me. So wanted, and THREE of hers were just discarded without a second thought. Not because she couldn't afford them or any other number of reasons people do this. But because THEY WOULDN'T BE SMART ENOUGH FOR HER.

@ag90 I am actually on the other end of the spectrum as you but just because I don't think the government should be able to tell me what I can and cannot do with my body. However, when it is used as a form of birth control, it pisses me off. Like I'm pretty sure a pack of condoms at the store is a whole lot cheaper than an abortion!

@lulu1180 So agree with you on that, the government should not be mandating this, we do not live in a religious country no matter how much the gov tries to insist it. You don't get to force your religious views on others, I am all for separation of church and state. Doubly agree, just get some condoms?? Or the pill is free???

My TW is the woman at the gym who asked me if I'm pregnant. I'm crazy bloated from my FET meds and was wearing a flowy workout top. IF YOURE NOT SURE, DONT ASK!
My sister is a TW. This is like the 30th time she's been my TW and I don't know why I still talk to her sometimes.
Her and her ex broke up literally 8 years ago. They broke up after he was a giant douche canoe *TW* after she lost their baby *End TW* He made her sleep on the floor and told her she was going to be a bad mother because she forgot her keys at home one day. Literally the biggest douche. Anyway.. he started messaging her out of the blue on the weekend and she didn't respond but heard through the grape vine that he and his girlfriend (of whom he originally broke up with to go out with my sister, and went back to her the day after he and my sister broke up and now has 2 kids and one on the way) had broken up and he wanted her back. She literally went slithering back to him and I called her out on it because why would you want that shit in your life? He treated you like crap and keeps jumping between you and her. Why would you do that to yourself?
So she started telling me that {I was trash and that she only wanted supportive people in her life and if I wasn't one of those people, I was out. My reaction?
@heatherdubrow - I was floored at how many people think that is an appropriate question. TW so I'm going to try and put the rest in a spoiler box --
When I was pregnant, I had so many women come up and ask me if I was pregnant. And it was super awkward because I was, and I was definitely starting to show, but I knew that the baby wasn't viable and was just waiting for the miscarriage to happen naturally. So when it's people you know - people at work, your neighbor, etc, - how do you answer that question? I'm pretty sure I scarred some people with my blunt "yeah, but don't expect to see a baby cause it's sick and won't make it to birth."

@ag90 I would very much like the opportunity to punch your friend.
@heatherdubrow why does anyone EVER think it's a good idea to ask about an unannounced pregnancy???
@Sailing_Mama waking up and not having coffee/espresso is the worst way to start the day!
@Dilynne tell your sister that she doesn't want supportive people in her life, she wants people who will support her terrible decisions. Big difference. Actually don't tell her anything and enjoy not being a part of the train-wreck.
@Tennis11785 so sorry you went through that *hugs*
@ag90 omg. Just omg. I want to TP her for you. @Sailing_Mama that would be enough to ruin my morning. @heatherdubrow people are jerks. I'm sorry @Dilynne you win for knowing the most TW ever. I'm sorry!
@heatherdubrow ugg that sucks, sorry you had to deal with that this morning. I wish people would just keep their mouths shut! Hugs @tennis11785 ouch but I love you for your response.

@Tennis11785 That's terrible. My coworkers knew what I went through and I still catch some sneaking glances at my stomach. @Dilynne I finally took the hint from some of my sisters that I needed to RUN!!! I haven't looked back, although I do feel bad for my nieces and nephew.
