I'm about to be completely and utterly ridiculous and childish. So move along if you can't stick with me here for a sec.
Okay so there's this really, really weird awkward girl on my Facebook who has known my husband since high school. She added me and I was like eh, whatever.
She is about 7 weeks pregnant with her boyfriend of 5 months I believe. I mostly post funny pregnancy related things (like the other day I posted a funny meme about being in 2nd trimester and not having my glow yet.) she literally takes my post and copies it WORD FOR WORD. And everything she posts is followed by #hashtag baby #7weeks #preggolife and I'm like...beyond annoyed with this! I also posted about it being national donut day, and that I've beeen craving donuts since day 1, and she posts right after saying "happy national donut day, my baby is craving them so bad!"
I'm being ridiculous. But if you saw this girl and the things she posts...its like, shoot me.
But I don't want to unfollow her at the same time because she's kind of a train wreck.
#imgoingtohell
Oh I love facebook train wrecks. I typically just hide them when the stupid gets too much to see on a daily basis. Then I may or may not creep their pages when I have a bad day.
#preggolife? Are you fucking kidding me? I was really into fitness/losing weight before getting pregnant, but your "friend" there may have found something more stupid looking than #fitness#girlswholift#girlswithmuscles. I didn't think it was possible.

This girl I know deleted her fb page awhile back and then because she's bsc made a new one and only added people we went to high school with who are moms. I'm secretly hoping she'll add me when she finds out I'm pregnant, just because she's so crazy, her posts are pure entertainment.
Another confession from me today, I'm feeling chatty. SO is 10 years older than I am and we've been dating for four years. I'm 22. I really get a kick out of explaining to people that I pursued him and watching their facial expressions switch from barely concealed horror to morbid curiosity. It's also funny that women typically look more horrified than men and that men typically high five my SO when it comes out how much younger I am.
I had people asking about SO at work this morning and all this happened, minus the usual comments my SO gets since he wasn't present.
I am 33 and DH is 8 years older then me. I have always been attracted to older men. I remember those reactions when I was younger. For me anyways, the older I get the less people care about the age difference.
DH is going to be 60 when this LO graduates high school. It is freaking him out a little bit.
My DH is 15 years older than me. But the biggest problem is we look like there is 30+ years between us. I'm in my 30s, but I still get mistaken for a teenager (usually 15-17 range) all the time. It make my life hell, most especially with employment. Lots of discrimination just because I look ridiculously young. And when I go out town with my son I got awful looks from people. And I hear them whispering things that make me so mad. Most days I can just ignore it, but other times I feel horribly embarrassed.
I had to uninstall tb app AGAIN! Just won't let me post a anything. And I just HATE HATE HATE people rubbing my belly. It's not a geenie in a bottle neither am I Budha. And God i'm to nice to say shit about it (

I guess it is only nice to look young to a certain point. People just suck sometimes.
And my DH will be happy to know he is not the oldest father out there

I don't have the age gap issue, I'm actually a year older than my husband. However, I do have the looking young problem. I usually hear that I look between 14 and 16 from a lot of people, and even had people question if I'm even legal since I've been in a relationship with my husband. So that's one thing that I don't look forward to when I'm clearly pregnant and have a baby. People assuming I'm a young knocked up teen.
I will have been at my job for a year this Tuesday coming up and people STILL don't know my name. I talk to my boss at least twice a week because I'm constantly reviewing my work load and taking him issues I've found from how things were done before I started. Today he was literally leaning on my name tag that's attached to my desk and called me Nicole. My name is Monika.. for the 5677643rd time. This same guy also called me Nicole during my year end review. I made sure I pointed that out but saved the document before he was able to fix it. Nothing I hate more than busting my ass to make a good impression for someone that can't even take the time to learn my damn name. I would really like to start calling him a new name every week from now on. I think I'll go with Jerry starting Monday.

You're not ridiculous. That girl is ridiculous. I think we all have those people who annoy the crap out of us on Facebook but we can't bring ourselves to delete/unfollow them because it either makes us feel better about our lives or it's too horrific to look away.
2 things: @VexyMommy those muffins sound wonderful...we should start a recipe board (or is there one?)
Second thing, my husband gets the wagging eye brow looks because I'm 4 years older than him. I'm ok with it, and having 3 kids 3 and under is ok because I'll turn 30 shortly after DD3 gets here. Poor DH gets ragged on at work because he will only be 26 and apparently, at least at his work, that is ridiculous. He should still be going out to bars and having fun without the ole ball and chain. I'm sorry that my husband is more mature than your "30 something divorced because I cheated on my wife" ass wipes! Pardon my french...
@VexyMommy I'm right there with you on that. Women's appearances in general is not a favorite topic of conversation for me. "she's too fat, she's too skinny, oh good for her she's a 'real woman' cause she has curves, blah blah blah"
Just STFU everyone about all of it.
Also I get super annoyed with the women who constantly compliment other women on superficial things like fashion, hair, and whatnot. I don't need anyone to approve of my appearance. Even if it's positive. "I like your hair, cute outfit, etc" ummmm I didn't ask your opinion....
Also don't ask me "is this outfit okay?" or "do you like my hair?" because I don't give a shite about your appearance either! And what kind of poor insecure adult woman needs another's approval on a damn wardrobe selection. FFS.*
*I know you're all thinking I'm a raging b***h now but I'm actually a pretty nice person. I just smile and nod a lot while visualizing banging my head on the wall
This, times a million. I don't think you're a bitch at all!

Ditto to this. DH is 12 years older than me. We get side-eyed quite a bit. Especially by women he's known his whole life (we live in his hometown). Meh, it's whatever.. I've come to expect it and don't let it bother me anymore.

I feel the same way! SIL makes a point of commenting on my appearance and clothing/bag every time she sees me. I know she means to be complimentary, but it totally irks me. I don't dress for your approval.. The worst is when she tells me, "Ooooh, you look soooooo skinny!" like it's a good thing. Ummm, excuse me, the word 'skinny' to me is almost derogatory. Also, don't worry, she hasn't said this since before I got pregnant.

My husbands brothers baby mama was living in North Carolina and came to visit at Easter. They have a little boy together and she was supposed to stay for two weeks and go back. During those two weeks I announced that I am having a boy, now it seems that she is here to stay! My mother in law does everything for her baby. The 12 hours a day that their baby is awake, my mother in law does everything for that baby 10 hours out of the 12. I think "SIL" thinks I'm going to take my MIL's time and attention away from her baby so she will actually have to start to take care of him herself. I've got news for you sweetie.... I don't want my MIL doing everything for my baby. I want to do it myself. I promise I'm not trying to take anything from you. You should try it sometime.
A day late, but I think you guys will get a kick out of it, so I'm sharing anyways.
My confession: When I saw @jscasher 's photo of her tacos buckled up for safety last week, I rolled my eyes. Hard. "Who waits until they're home to eat Taco Bell?" I thought. (Didn't know it yet, but I was so in for it from that point on!)
So yesterday, I finally got to satisfy my Taco Bell craving. I picked up pizza for the kids, and decided that while I was out, I was gonna get my tacos! The drive-through was.so.slow...like, the pizza cooked faster than it took them to serve myself and the 3 cars in front of me. But I finally got my tacos (2 soft tacos supreme with supreme'd fries, in case anyone is wondering) so it's all good. I had the first one open and in my mouth before I even left the driveway....yum! When I'm about halfway done, blop! A huge clump dripped on my shirt. My white shirt.
I very carefully finished the rest and then proceeded to carefully eat my 2nd taco. I apparently hadn't learned my lesson yet though, as on the 2nd last bite, I managed to spill some on my pants too!
Jscasher, I'm sorry for mentally judging you. I have definitely learned my lesson now, and will only eat them when I'm sitting still from now on!
ETA: I swear I used paragraphs! I'm not sure why it's not showing up that way.

The real FFFC question is did you lick it off your shirt?

14 year old age difference here! My husband's a fox, though, and has aged beautifully. I carry myself like I'm older so people don't really notice much. If they do and have the balls to say something weird I just tell them I'm fatherless so this is how I solved my daddy issues. That tends to shut them up quick.
This is probably weird, but even when I'm in good shape I never get a flat belly. What I mean by that is there's always this flap or roll (I don't know what to call it) above my belly button. One of my big hopes with pregnancy last time was that when I was super preggo it would stretch my belly out enough so it wouldn't have that roll. It never happened and it made me sad.... also I hate how glitchy this app is on my phone

@elbou OMG I just saw this!! I'm dying laughing, not at your misfortune but just the mental picture!
I'm weird, when I get a food I've been craving, I like to sit and fully devote 100% of my attention to said craving. If it was anything else, like a burger, I'd totally scarf it down in the car. But these tacos had to be freaking SAVORED, man.
