Leaving bump

Annastasiax3 · August 2013

Quite frankly I don't want to be reading nor associating with such horrible opinionated women I have never seen anything like it in my life women come on here for help and support not to be judged and discruiniced your all pregnant women with children on the way!! Think your all need to grow up! Dont get me wrong there have been some lovely women on here and I have had some great responses to alot off my queries but also alot of sarcastic replies ill leave you all to it enjoy putting each other down and making womens pregnancy even more emotional then to start with. I personal find that I am better off away from bitchiness and will be surrounding myself by positive happy pregnant girlies! Bye guys!!!

I wish you wouldn't. If everyone who's nice leaves there really won't be any balance.

It's ok missy we all have our pregnant hormonal days, smile we are happy and pregnant

Annastasiax3 · August 2013

Get a grip your sad pathetic low life women I'm not on about how you all treat me I'm on about how you all treat other women on this your all vile! I couldn't care less about any other you speak to me but some people don't deal with idiotic childish comments the way I do it's gets some people down and it could come across upsetting to others. It really is funny how you all sit behind your screens been horrible to other indervidual but I'm a strong believer in karma I can't wait till it all gets thrown back your way

have fun with your pregnancy! I'm sure there won't be many people standing by you by the end of it if this is how hormones make you all haha! Goodbye

Correct spelling all your like English terms are different to others thank you

legallyginger · August 2013

This just in... you're all hormonal bitches. More at eleven.

Dafuq did I miss?

Also, we don't need a long diatribe about why you're leaving, just go. This post isn't going to change anyone's behavior. Maybe you should give www.babycenter.com a try, might be more your speed. kthanxbai.

Kthxbye

HKline922 · August 2013

2 things - she claims to be sick of other women putting each other down yet she stoops to their level calling them sad pathetic low lifes. Also, why is it these ppl say they are leaving yet stick around to reading and replying to the replies to their OP that they are leaving! Can't stand that. If you truly want to be done then BE DONE!

ladyglittersparkles · August 2013

Oh so sorry you're leaving I thought we were Internet Bff's

What's the point of you posting this?

Emahhlee · August 2013

Everyone, i mean EVERYONE gets flamed at some point in time on here. It may even happen twice. It is kind of like a initiation on here. You also want people to be honest. If you post a stupid question you will get a honest answer. If you feel like people have been very rude or mean maybe you should go back and look at your post and you might get why people are like they are...

lazyreader · August 2013

I feel like The Asshole is under appreciated. They get the shit out. And I sure hate being constipated.

She's right though. So many of the women who regularly respond are great but there are a large bunch who seem to enjoy putting others down. I'm in a sorority and my initiation wasn't filled with negativity & belittling, why should it be here? When I introduced myself I was SLAMMED by 4+ women and no "welcome". So many people act like 15 year olds this board could be used as the script for "Maternity Mean Girls".

Yeah, except you never introduced yourself. You came in guns blazing complaining about how everyone was being "mean" to a poster who got herself banned for saying nasty, racist things to people. That's not gonna make people super welcoming. If you made a "Hi, I'm goldphool, here's a little bit about me, can't wait to get to know you" post, everyone would have been plenty welcoming. Like they are on all of those posts. And I'm pretty sure no one has been "mean" to you since.

/steps off soapbox

Edit: damn, everyone else beat me to it...

SomersIsles · August 2013

Is the OP referring to something in particular?? Lately I haven't seen much snark.... Unless I missed something major. I mean the UO threads have been kind of record breaking but those belong in a different category so I feel that doesn't count.

This. What is the OP talking about specifically? I think we're all pretty nice but don't take any shit.

goldphool · August 2013

@Laura8388, a sorority is a club for lack of a better term for women in college. They all live in the house and have varius philanthropies they support. You can learn more about them on Wikipedia.

@bearsbearsbears, in communication perception is everything.

My post wasn't that hard to read but I'll separate my thoughts for everyone who can't read what I type.

The board name seemed like an introduction board. The first thing I said was, I wasn't aware of the whole story. Then I introduced myself.

I was so excited to join a pregnancy community! I had no one else to talk to but the responses I recieved weren't welcoming, people made fun of me. I couldn't believe it. I still can't. So if I feel like I was slammed that's my perception and I'm entitled to it. Just like you're entitled to your opinion.

goldphool · August 2013

Well ladies where would you like me to post my intro? Let me start all over.

lindsey1031 · August 2013

@goldphool - true. Perception is everything. Sometimes what others think is rude is meant to be matter of fact or even funny. I don't remember your post, but I kind of think that the OP of this message may have her wires crossed. Maybe she read some things that sounded rude to her, but really weren't meant to be. It's hard to read true intentions through typed words. I try to take everything written here with a a grain of salt and assume the best.

*edit for spelling

goldphool · August 2013

@lindsey1031, true is good to have a balanced perspective, thanks.

angelsnight · August 2013

Oh boy, have fun on babygaga where you won't get any educated factual advice. Just people telling you that yes you're showing at 8 weeks and that gas was indeed your baby moving at 10 weeks.

I thought the board has been pretty damn calm lately.

amandoza23 · August 2013

Holy run on sentence...

corbsmom · August 2013

Feel free to join us in the FB group! Anonymity makes some come across worse than they would otherwise. I totally agree that there are a few women here who are unnecessarily rude and don't seem to get that not everyone is looking for the same bump experience as they are.

Not everyone is looking for a community to be a part of. Some just come here once or twice looking for advice or to ask a question, and that is okay! They should not have to introduce themselves or get to know people before doing so. If anyone has a problem with that, they should just ignore those posts and let those who want to answer do so.

Yep, that's why the tab you click on to get to the boards on the desktop site is labeled "Community." If everyone just popped in once to ask a question, then no one would be here to answer them. So, please, excuse the hell out of everyone for being annoyed when people treat the boards as google and don't contribute.

And please excuse the hell out of women who just want advice or input from real women who are going through the same experiences they are instead of a generic answer from google. The Bump advertises itself as a place to come in and ask questions, especially on the iPhone app I use.

I think that's why women get so upset or their feelings hurt because they come here (not this board specifically, just the bump in general) to ask a question as the app or site instructs them, and instead, are met with snark or downright rudeness because they didn't intro themselves or whatever first.

Anyway, you're missing the point I was trying to make. I totally get that not everyone wants to just pop in, and instead, wants more of a sense of community. And that is GREAT. But also, it is fine that some are looking for a different experience and DO want to just pop in every now and then to ask a question or whatever. Not everyone has the same expectations for this board, and I find it so annoying when people get so butthurt because someone wants to use this forum in a different way than they do.

I haven't seen any disrespecting comments/post. Did I miss something?

This is a completely new topic. And this thread will fix TB to your liking. Congratulations.

Seriously? You go on a pregnancy message board full of HORMONAL PREGNANT WOMEN and expect them to lie to you and hold your hand and be sugar sweet to you? Guess what, honey, these women live in the real world, not a freakin fantasy land. If you can't handle strangers on the Internet being less than sweet to you then I am genuinely concerned for how you cope in the real world. Clearly you never learned when you were younger - girls are bitches and people suck. No one forced you to be on here. In fact, no one cared until now because you're whining and starting drama. So if you want to leave the Bump, GREAT. Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

Why does someone always blame pregnant homones?

But if you are going to, perhaps, it is the OP who is experincing hormonal imbalance and decided to make a sweeping statement about the members of this board with a drive by flip of the bird, for no apparent reason.

my1stbabyat23 · August 2013

I think this post got what it wanted ATTENTION !! Not agaisnt it though it is fun! I'm sure she won't leave now lol

Again, I'm going to say that if you guys are getting your panties in a twist over strangers on the internet, then good luck with your lives in the real world.

Who are you arguing with? First it seemed like you were barking back at the OP... Now I'm not so sure...

Threads like these amuse me.

Honestly most of you are just proving her point! She isn't the first to say it and won't be the last.

How can you have no one else to talk to?? You're in a sorority of super nice philanthropic girls!

LiFeIsAmIrAcLe · August 2013

What happened???? My eyes are literally going in circles right now lol. I don't understand how this post even turned into the drama that it is??? if you're leaving TB, that's great..... No one is forcing you to stay here......and there are plenty of other boards out there. I really don't think there was any reason to post a goodbye message to everyone (since you're so incredibly unhappy with this board) but to each her own lol.

Your the one taking it offensively lol like I said AGAIN your only proving her point. Your just a bunch of women behind a screen acting like your some badass but I bet in person your actual actions would be different in the REAL world;) I've met plenty of great ladies on here who have given their opinion in a respectful manner. I honestly can't take someone who comes across as a know it all seriously by any means. And once again she won't be the first or the last and you will be explaining yourself all over again and I will sit here and laugh at you!

Hey, this is a support and advice group, I'm pretty sure that we all get that. But why is it the same group of people that has to be the hormonal bitches, 'round here? How is it that the OPs or other people that are jumping in on the "calling out meanie faces" bandwagon aren't the hormonal ones?

P.S. I have never seen one of the "mean girls" ever call on karma and wish anyone a "happy" pregnancy or "healthy" baby. That's just evil.
