Emotional

I know it's normal to be emotional but is any one else completely over emotional like for example my grandfather jokingly tells me everytime he sees me I need to lose some weight (I've only gained 15lbs) but it's really starting to get under my skin .. I know he doesn't mean any harm by it but seriously .. I'm carrying a child I'm uncomfortable im emotional ect. when I mention to him if he could stop saying that he just laughs and says the same thing the next time he sees me.. Any advice as to how I can get him to actually take me seriously.. Because it's not sinking in.

  • I find I'm more mean... I have yet to cry over something. It's weird. I had a grandfather like that. He passed away 2 years ago though. Your gonna laugh about those comments later.
  • Some people will never get it. They just don't take other people's feelings into consideration. :((

    Crying usually gets attention. I don't do it on demand but since I've gotten pregnant, I want to cry all the time. If that's what it takes to get my point across I don't mind ugly crying for about 5 minutes. That's how I shut up those inappropriate question/comments.


    With great power comes great responsibility. Use your tears with care. 
    You're so wise. Thank you for this post hahahahahaha

  • I'm right there with you about being overly emotional at people's comments. Everything makes me want to cry. It's like a part of me knows I'm being ridiculous but then the rest of me just wants to lay down and bawl my eyes out. I've had to sniffle my way through warning DH that I'm feeling 'fragile'. He's usually pretty good about understanding. But like you I just don't know how to tell others - Mostly I just blank face ignore them. Not even a passing glance or tiny smile, no acknowledgement. I just give them the 'cold shoulder'.

    I cry petty much everyday. The smallest things set me off. I think shedding a few tears the next time your grandfather makes that comment would do the trick. He probably just doesn't get that it upsets you so much.
  • I guess I'll just have to cry it out in front of him lol hopefully he stops. Im on the worst emotional kick right now :/ thanks ladies !
  • I'm so emotional I feel like I'm going crazy. 8-} :(( :)) they're all over the place.
