Don’t you see, though, that your comments you’ve made are “think of the women! But only because of the impact on men!” I mean... “they will suffer because their partners will die” is such a heteronormative thing to say to begin with, and also women have been impacted by this for years. But now since it’s a literal…

Seriously? Ugh, that’s so shitty. It’s such a valid comment, and the fact that he doesn’t understand that is... troubling, to say the least. 

My grandma - my hero - died in ‘97.  I wish I could tell you it ever stops hurting, but it doesn’t.  It just transforms into a livable pain.  But even still, sometimes something will remind you of her so strongly it knocks the wind out of you.  But you will get through it, and it will get easier to bear.  I’m so, so…

First off, the good: That is so exciting and I’m so happy for you!!

I’ve had both happen to me, but I’ve always privately given bonus points to the ones that have asked. 

Everyone in this thread has clearly only seen the movie version, sad.

I will belt that song at the top of my lungs with no shame if it comes on the radio.

Hard same.

Hard same. Having an abortion when I got pregnant with my shitty, abusive ex eight years ago was the best decision I have ever made, even though yes, I do eventually want to have kids someday. I have never regretted it.

Down by Law!!! Thank you for reminding me of that fantastic movie.

I’ve had bedbug infestations three times in my life because of apartment living. In one case, I got them twice in one year because it ended up that the apartment directly across from me had a horrible infestation that they never called in until the building owner decided everyone needed to be inspected and fumigated fo…

I know it’s Monday so probably no one will read this, but I needed to vent somewhere and this is a good spot for it. At my 9 1/2-week ultrasound appointment, I found out the fetus is only about the size of 6 1/2 weeks. Otherwise, not good. The OB said it’s possible I was just wrong about the ovulation date and it…

If it makes you feel better about the situation, my now-fiancé moved in with me six months after we started dating and we’re getting married ~1.75 years after we started dating :) it can work out, and I hope it does for you! You deserve it.

This. Is. GENIUS. I’m ashamed I’ve never thought to do the same!

I had three miscarriages (all within the first trimester, so tough, but nothing compared to late-term miscarriages) and am now pregnant again and past the point I was when the others miscarried, so I’m hopeful! Anyway, point of that was my cycle became super off-kilter because of all of the miscarriages.

You’re a shitty human being, fyi.

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame...

loooooool agreed, and also :((( for Joanna
