(*hugs*) I understand where you're coming from. Some people just never listen, and never try to even understand in the least bit what you're saying. It's hard. Sorry that the comments are still coming... I don't think they ever really end. And that makes things so much harder. It's really disheartening when you try to make people understand, and you try, but it feels like you&

I get it. It just gets to the point where you don't want to say "I know you meant well, but" any more.

Keep your head up.

Hey Katie,

First off, I have to apologize. I was so excited to see your adoption fb page that I commented and shared it on my page. Then I realized that I'd just changed my profile picture to one that wasn't very sensitive. It all occurred to me after the fact, and I've been stewing on it since then. No harm was intended.

I am sorry that you are dealing with

We all have our moments of tired giving-up-ness. I'm so sorry you're having to deal with that right now.....ugh. People and their stupid comments!

I've never commented on a blog before, but I really want to tell you something. My husband and I feel that our infertility issues are a very private and personal matter. I never told anyone, family, friends, colleagues, anyone, what we were going through.
If people like you didn't blog, and didn't speak up, people like me would feel utterly alone. I'm sorry that not

Being with family and friends during the holidays unfortunately brings out the "best" in people sometimes. Oh, do I feel your pain there. Sending lots of love your way.

BIG HUGS.

I am sorry that there is an ignoramus in your midst and that something they said got to you. Some folks are a lost cause and its best to insulate yourself from them by not being in their company (this isn't always feasible but there have been many a family function that we bowed out of, sometimes at the last minute, under some guise, just to avoid being around people who weren't good for

It's like with anything else - people don't know when to shut up. Example: a few years ago I lost a significant amount of weight. Most people were very sweet about complimenting me. Then one says, "Yeah, good thing you lost some weight - you were really going over the edge." Really?! Some people are just stupid. I'm sorry someone made you upset.

I totally get it.

Ahh yes, you are so correct. Some people will never get no matter how many times or ways you try to explain it. Those are the ones I no longer talk to about it and give vague answers like, 'it's going', or 'we are trying to figure things out'. Hugs

We've been at is only a year and a half, and we've encountered our fair share of rude, hurtful comments. You'd think people would begin to understand, but they don't, and I think (for me, at least) It's more hurtful when they don't even try to understand what we are going through. Hugs to you today.
