Ugh, friend vent

Let me preface this with I hate Facebook, it is the devil for anyone dealing with IF.

I was totally trolling around Facebook looking at what my friends with kids are doing, since I never hear from them, and see that all of them are planning baby playdates, mommy night outs, or family dinners. It makes me so sad:( Now I am sitting here alone on a Saturday night feeling sorry for myself. Sad

    I hear ya!  I had a similar thing happen, though not on Facebook.  My husband and I participated in a bible study with some friends that went to a different church.  It started as a "young marrieds" group.  It has since went on to become a "parents" group.  Since DH and I are not parents yet, we are no longer invited.  I'm sad. 

    *hugs* Someday you will be in on those fun things too!

    I can completely understand.

    On the positive side, though, if you and your H want to take off this evening to go see a movie or get some Waffle House at 2am, you don't have to worry about waking the baby or finding a babysitter :)  That's how I have been trying to deal with those feelings.

    What the HELL? Sorry, I don't know what happened.  I swear that was not on purpose.  I guess I really, really understand.  I am going to try to delete those.

    I know exactly what you mean, we are the last of our friends without kids, and looking at myspace and facebook, just hurts.

    I totally feel your pain!

    In the spirit of looking on the bright side, tonight we were able to accept a spontaneous dinner invitation from friends, because we didn't have to worry about a babysitter.

    I'm sorry :(

    It is so hard; it feels like everyone else's life has moved on- in the direction we want to go.

    hugs.?

    This is why I am not on there and will not go on there until I am safely out of the 1st tri. I joust found out that one of my ex's friended my brother-he and his wife have 4 kids....I just cannot take it. I can hear about it but I cannot see it on there and then have to open that door...too painful.

    I know.  One of my friends had as her status:" __________ is pregnant!  It only takes one time, people!"

    I wanted to rip her eyes out.

    I feel your pain - we are either left out from all of the kid activities or not traveling the world with our single or newly married friends because we are dealing with treatments, money, etc. for IF.

    And gringa, that is horrible. FB can be the WORST!

    That's truly horrible!
    I could understand if they created a separate group, but to completely "uninvite" you guys to a "Young marrieds" group is terrible  *hugS*
