Something happened last night.

TashaCN · December 2014

Hey Ladies,

Something happened last night that I am not okay with. I wrote, "I am going to lose my shit." on someone else's post.

Not the biggest deal in the world, but that is not who I am or anything I would ever say to or about someone IRL. So I wrote a PM to the person who I posted it to, apologizing for my behavior. This someone, who many of us were quite heated with, then shared that I had PM'ed them and I felt quite used.

I wanted to let you know that I in no way criticized this board in my PM. I just let them know that I was sorry they were not getting the responses they had hoped for, apologized for my angry posts, and explained (again ( & again?( & again?)) that TTCAL was not the place for their question and they may be better received on a different board where women were already pregnant or in a less vulnerable place.

That being said. I need a break from TTCAL. I wanted to let you know, #1 because I felt like it would be rude to just disappear after the PM debacle and #2 I like to pretend that I would be missed.

I am in no way judging or criticizing how others responded to last nights post or how you respond to other people who may be hurtful to members of this board. I get it. This board and you (us) ladies need to be safe and protected. I just don't like how I responded. I feel like I am losing myself and I spend way too much time getting lost on TB (also Facebook and Twitter) and have neglected real life.

I do need to say THANK YOU to all of you though for providing me a safe place to explore my feelings, worries, struggles and dessert crises over the last few months. (I've only been here for 2). You are all truly wonderful and I wish everyone the best.

Maybe after I reconnect with my real life self I will come back. I hope I will be welcome.

Happy Holidays everyone.

I'm so sorry you feel this way.

Although, did the person in question out the contents of your PM? If so, that's a violation of the TOU.

I hope the break does you good.

I hope the break is what you need. Also, I don't think your post was inappropriate. I know the thread you're speaking of, and I felt the same way. Sometimes, things and posts just hit your harder than other days. ((hugs)) Good luck.

This.. If that is the case please let @PetraStonegirl‌ know as it a TOS violation that is taken very seriously.

I bumped up the thread in question if you would like to have a look.

TashaCN · December 2014

@PinkCamino and @wickedsugar. I looked.

They said that I PM'ed them and told the board that I had discussed what was happening on the thread. Nothing else. @PetraStonegirl I'm not sure if that is a violation.

I bumped it up. After reading the summary I have a pretty decent idea about what you wrote.

I'm sorry you're in a bad place. I hope your bump break does all the good, and I hope you'll be back!

Good luck, lady. I totally understand wanting to disconnect from Internet and reconnect with real life. Please know we are all here for you if you need us and we will be thinking of you. Hugs.

I'm so sorry about what happened and that you feel like you need to step away. But I totally understand. I hope you can reconnect with real life and then join us again soon.

((Hugs)) Scuba. I hope you get what you need from your break.

yellowcat10 · December 2014

((HUGS)) I went and looked at your posts and found their threads on this and other boards, You are no way in the wrong here. I am sorry their stress and personal issues are affecting you so much.

MrsG80inTN · December 2014

I wish you the best on your break and hope that it brings you what you need. I understand what you mean about getting caught up in TB and Facebook and such and also understand what you mean about saying things you don't mean. It happens. TTCAL can bring about emotions and things that we didn't know possible. I have to keep mine in check a lot. Just know that we are here for you and we understand. I would never judge you for PMing someone to explain yourself. I've done it before when I've said things that didn't come across the way they should have.

Best of luck and lots of hugs.
