(Vent update) Lesson learned

Ladies getting your panties in a wad bc of another lady venting about her husband..shows you have no life . You get upset for a post in a pregnancy forum..and you are carrying a child. Act like it geez. If you don't like a girl "venting" don't read the damn post!!

 

I don't think any of us were upset she was venting, we were worried that she was being a floor mat to an overbearing and demanding husband. Yes some people took it a little far but she really made it seem like she was in a very bad situation, not just having a bad day.

There is some bullying that happens on this board. Sometimes snark goes too far and always is stupid.

Yeah, that's a fair statement.  We gotta own our stuff when we dish it out.  If my comments have ever crossed a line, I apologize. That's not the kind of person I want to be here or anywhere.

You complained about your husband, we agreed that he was being an a$$ and that you shouldn't be treated that way, and now we're bullies for it. Ok then.

I'm not sure why people keep saying this board isn't for support among other things.

Personally I don't have any friends who are pregnant or have children so my only option right now is to talk on forums like this.

I don't expect anyone to hold my hand but I would like to think the idea of having specific BMBs is to allow a group of otherwise not connected women to come together during the exciting and nerve wrecking months of pregnancy.

Just a thought.

Maybe if you can't handle criticism you shouldn't post on the internet.

 Again reading the post, she sounds like a victim of some kind domestic abuse. I'm not going to support that ever. No one is bullying her, but they are calling her out for being in a bad situation with no happy ending to come. This is completely based on the information OP provided.

ok I've read through many of the responses however this one I will address, I did not say nor imply there was any "abuse" going on. Feeling under appreciated is one thing but many of the responses over analyzed my words to make my husband out to be some womanizing wifebeater. I have personally seen other women complain about having the same feelings during pregnancy right here on this board. And even if I were in a bad situation where I was being abused, blaming the victim is the wrong approach. Any educated woman would know that. I studied criminology and sociology in college and to be honest it's general knowledge.

no, not all of the posts were "supportive" someone event old me my marriage was doomed and my husband would cheat. That is wrong, end of story.

LOLing this board is inZayn.

inZayn in the membrane.

For what it is worth, I see a whole lot more support and comradery then I do "bullying".

Also, OP you posted something ridiculously outlandish and painted your H in a poor light.  I am not sure why you were so surprised people were poking fun at the situation.  If your situation is really true then I feel really badly for you.
