We haven't had a TW in a while, who or what in your life is being a Tw*twaffle this week?

-TMI but pregnancy constipation is killing me lately 😭. So I guess my body is the tw*t.

-My dog and cat. I love them both but give me some space, dudes. They are both so needy and climb on me the minute I sit down. DH tried to get my dog to go for a ride to get coffee this morning and he wouldn't leave my side. Adorable for sure but also annoying.

Oh I needed this thread today, ran into one of H’s friends at the grocery store this morning who we haven’t seen since DS’s diagnosis and this man legit had the nerve to say to me, “I totally get what you’re going through, I’m lactose intolerant” 🤬

@gembud OMG! facepalm.... if you're like me your husband will get all the rage for the silly things that come out of his friends mouths!

@gembud You get a trophy for the sheer fact that your head didn't explode and that you didn't punch him directly in the nose!

@gembud some people are so effing out of touch. Im sorry but I have never heard of a life-threatening intolerance to lactose dude. How did you even respond?!

@gembud
I am so sorry. I hate when anyone does that. 

TW!

Not quite the same, but when I’ve tried in the past to explain my sort of ptsd from my loss in my first pregnancy to my dad, he shuts me down with “I know how you feel, I miss her too.”

Actually happened again recently during this pregnancy where I was trying to explain why I was so shaky emotionally to him, but I digress.

I feel like in situations like this, even if you feel like you relate to the other person, never claim to know just how they feel. It’s often obnoxious at best and completely cold hearted at worst.

Sending hugs.


For me, DH is the ‘twat’ off and on lately.
He doesn’t have compassion at times and thinks he’s the only one that’s tired when he gets home from work. So he gets snippy and irritated with me over little things.

 He also has told me he wasn’t in the mood to deal with me when I was having a panic/anxiety attack, because he felt the topic had already been thoroughly discussed previously. lol

Usually he’s not too bad, though.
My mother is worse. I try to maintain a relationship with her, but it’s hard because as I’ve mentioned she’s toxic and a gaslighter. Literally any decision I make that she isn’t fond of she tries to bully me into changing, most recently my decision to not attend family Thanksgiving, though she is also part of team ‘praying I don’t pick the name they consider taboo’.
