FFFC!!

1246

Re: FFFC!!

  • I get on TB WAY more than FB.

    I have hidden many people from my newsfeed (even BFFs) for practicing annoying-as-shit FB habits.

    I've also hidden many people who are just way too damn happy for me to deal with (PPD/PPA talking, maybe?).

    Most "hot" topics don't get me worked up that much (not even what we talked about in UO yesterday), but the moment someone talks shit about LGBTQetc people, that's the moment I lose my shit.  ((Take note:  If you want to get me all pissed off at an internet stranger, start up this conversation on UO next week ;) ))  I don't even feel bad about it, and I don't necessarily think it's flame worthy on this board..  JS.

    From yesterday, I apologize if I hurt anyones feelings with my opinion on abortion. It is one subject that stirs my soul and I couldn't help but to chim in. My opinion was not meant to be personal, it was towards the act in general but I now realize it was obviously personal for some that have faced this decision.

    Again, apologize if my words/views offended any of you. I agree that this is too controversial to bring up anymore.

    After reading yesterday I had a big bone to pick with you. I'll step forward and accept this apology even though I didn't comment on the UO thread and didn't see it yesterday (it's a damn good thing I didn't see it). Your words were hurtful for those who weren't even involved in the discussion.

    Some experiences in life break your heart in ways you can't imagine. "The act" as you call it changes many lives in ways you also can't imagine. I thank goodness that I am a strong Mama now and that I have a truly wonderful DH.

    I have much more to say on the subject and about my life circumstances but you in no way deserve to know them. I won't belittle myself by EVER thinking I need to explain myself to you.
    And I am not asking you to. I can agree to disagree. We obviously aren't on the same page with this but I don't think it is something to be angry towards me for.
    You have your opinion and I have my feelings. I can feel any way I want. You can view something any way you want.

    Listen, you're just some judgey person on the internet. You're not important enough to be angry with. I am of the opinion that you should pick your words more carefully. You may not feel the same way....but your apology belies otherwise.

    My FFFC is I had to Google "LGBTQ"...I had no idea what that was. ;) I got it now.

    @ljs4117 My bff and I go through spurts of talking (we live across the country from each other), I get super pissed when she has time to ask for candy crush tickets and not text me back. Because of this, I don't answer her texts for days anymore.
    @dccornel - Gah, tell me about it.  I have "friends" like this too.  This sounds silly but ones that will randomly text me from Victoria Secret because she had to buy a DDD bra (no shit, you had implants.. isn't that the point? lol) but hardly said a thing when I lost my first pregnancy or after DD was born..  Also annoys me when friends will like your things on FB but you always have to initiate conversation outside of that and then (like you said) they hardly respond.  How lazy is that?  It might be wrong of me but I've stopped talking to one of my friends pretty much completely because of stuff like that.

  • I put this in UO but it's actually more FFFC.

    It always amazes me how upset people get about some of these threads. It's someone's opinion! There is no way we are going to change it so why try? It isn't worth getting worked up over IMO- this is the Internet. As much as I love you guys, I'm not going to get all worked up if our opinions differ or you don't agree with something I say or you don't like me. I read stuff on here everyday that makes me roll my eyes or shake my head but it isn't something that I take personally. Sometimes I give my input and sometimes I dont but whether people love it or hate it, it is still my opinion and I am not going to get upset over anyones reaction. I've been around these boards a looooong time and I can count on one hand the number of times I've gotten worked up about something and typically I've forgotten about it the next day lol

    I haven't read all the replies, but what I get upset about isn't usually the opinions, it's the name calling. I find when it gets to that point, you're completely losing sight of your argument and opinion and sinking down to a low level. Once the "bitch" and "fuck you" stuff starts coming out it's like seeing people's true colors. And sorry, I love some people here, but no one here are my RL friends and don't know my true heart. I try to be myself, but it's hard to come across sometimes with just words. Anyway...I too usually forget the next day but reading some of it is just like o_O

    I'm not sure what else to say to you. I said what I said and feel the way I feel. You got your point acrossed but don't call me judgey when that's not what I was doing. I never specified you as I wasn't judging YOU. Nor do I "judge" my friends who have done the same thing, some of which had multiple.

    Not agreeing with and judging are not the same.

    Just as I don't know you or your situation, you don't know me either. I'm done with this conversation. Sorry if my opposing view hurt your feelings.

    So anyway....

    I didn't buy or carve a single pumpkin this year. I didn't decorate for fall at all other than a wreath on my door.

    Yep... me either.
  • @liz4444 tell me about it! I have no clue how it happens. I went for cereal, milk and bread 2 days ago and spent 75 bucks. I have nothing to eat and I'm currently hungry. Iell need to go to the grocery store today or I won't be able to make dinner. Gah!
  • I haven't been to the dentist in years (bad me). One of my wisom teeth is broken so now I have to bite the bullet and get them all removed like I should have years ago. Not excited.
  • I don't even like candy. Unless there's a baby in my belly. I swear I ate more in 9 months than I have my whole life.
  • @ncchnat i'm glad I got that off my chest and someone out there agrees.  Every time I try to bring this up with DH he looks at me like i'm crazy and says i'm way over thinking this.  He was never confirmed, pretty sure his family never went to church.  His religous views and growing up were not remotely close to mine, and yet he's on the we need to babtize soon bandwagon too.  I've been leaning toward trying to find a non demoniational chuch. I want to bring DD up with some type of faith even though there are plenty of days I can't help but think what kind of God allows blank.

    I too hated the "God's plan" line.  I can't help but think you would never tell someone dealing with a terminal illness that it's "god's plan" so why okay to say that to me? I know the two aren't the same but both are suffering to different degrees.

     

    My 2nd FFFC--i'm oddly excited to use my first @sign in a post.

    TTC since 2008, our little miracle arrived July 2013!

    @asbromie I was the opposite, i'm a candy feign and while pg my dd hated sweets.  I'd get sick every time I tried to eat it.

    Re the PPD comment, it wasn't in a UO or FFFC thread. I can't remember what thread it was in. I gave the OP the benefit of the doubt and told her she was wrong and offensive but she never came back to apologize. I've had PPD/PPA with both kids and I'm not sure how I would survive without my DH. He puts up with so much and is so supportive, I don't deserve him.
    Raising my hand!! This was me. In the context that it was said, I clearly recall saying it was my opinion that x was caused by z. In my mind, that was a disclaimer informing people it was that my opinion, didn't mean it was true for everyone and it certainly doesn't mean that it's the be all and end all. It's simply my belief and while I'm disheartened you were hurt by it, and at no moment did I mean to hurt anyone with that opinion. I took it as we simply have different opinions and I'm not going to apologize for having a different opinion than you or anyone else. I am responsible for what I write and not for what you or any other poster may take it to mean. 

    Yes, I saw your comment that you thought I was wrong and offensive and if I didn't respond it was because I had nothing to say. It's your opinion. I'm sure you weren't the only one that was bothered by it, but it wasn't my intention to bother anyone by it. It was simply my opinion. I wasn't out to change your and I hope your not out to change mine.

    In essence, I took my silence to be an agreement to agree to disagree on a view point we don't see eye to eye on.

    * I swear there was better punctuation in this when I wrote it to when it posted.

  • We did cry it out with DS2 this week. We weren't planning on using this method as we never needed to with DS1. Cruz started waking up at night again for his soother. The first night was just a few times which is fine. The next night he woke up at 3am and spit it out every 2minutes. I tried feeding him and he still did the same thing afterwards. We were all miserable. The next night he started up again so we let him cry. He finally fell back asleep and didn't wake up again. He's been sleeping 7pm-7am ever since. We are all so much happier. Never thought I would be one to CIO. Flame away

    @nnchnat I love you and I'm sorry! Loss and discussing it brings out emotions you should not have to defend..Hugs (and I mean them).

    Agreed. Huge hugs.
    I didn't realize there was name calling going in that was being defended. I just don't like people's feelings getting hurt and it getting ugly. Truly sorry yours were @ncchnat. I don't remember who said what yesterday, just making a general statement. So sorry! :(

    @Laurendag OH! lmfao dang. See what I mean? I even went back to see if I had posted something about my eyes haha That's what we were arguing about. That the most logical answer was either the wine cause it's 3 am & WTF are your parents doing at your house or the door. In the way the riddle is presented you know it's your parents at the door so you obviously saw them there right? Meaning your eyes were already open. It's like a never ending circle with the "right" answer.

  • @mamasighs- It is my opinion that having an unsupportive spouse certainly makes your more prone to have PPD/PPA.

    So yeah - it's your opinion but it's not founded in any kind of reality. 
     
    Sure it is, but I'm not out to change your mind or anyone else's for that matter. Therefore no need for a dissertation or case studies to validate my opinion. 

    It's as if I said Fridays are better than Thursdays. It's my opinion. I'm sure I could find case studies proving and disproving my point, but then again I don't feel the need to because I'm not trying to prove anything to you or anyone else.
