That’s so fucked, I’m sorry that happened to you and that the people who should have supported you let you down so badly.

Yeah the bread-baking thing makes me think that someone has read a few too many “Chicken Soup for the Soul” type stories. Like, “My wife had fallen out of love with me, I decided to bake her a loaf of bread every week to symbolize my love for her, I wasn’t a very good baker but I kept at it and we fell back in LOVE.…

I hope Kate is her maid of honor and steals her thunder with a caboose-hugging dress. Congratulations, Pippa!!!

Carlin’s take on this stands as one of the best political commentaries of all time. When I first heard it I was in awe. Still am.

Sarah Palin is an extreme conservative and to quote the late, great George Carlin (WARNING: “Naughty language” if your work shuns that kind of thing):

If you live in a small studio apartment which is not that uncommon in larger cities, a Murphy bed is a God send. Otherwise, a bed could wind up taking up a huge if not the majority of your living space. Take this bed for example. Look how much space it takes in her studio. But because she can fold it up and there is a…

I think the point was you could have people over in your tiny room and have them not awkwardly sit on the bed with you. So yeah, you would have to move things, but the things would be like two chairs and a tea table.

Hugs to you. Have also gone through the infertility/miscarriage/high-risk pregnancy vortex and it’s not a fun place to be.

And although she probably doesn’t believe it will ever happen to her, this woman will one day be old (if she’s lucky). Her body won’t always be pin-up material. Karma is going to hit her like a meteor when she turns 40.

I always reassure myself by thinking “No one is even paying attention to you. No one cares what you look like.” Then I see something like this.

This woman just kept A LOT of women who were insecure about their bodies from setting foot in a gym. She has been valued for her looks for so long, she probably has no idea that she made real someone’s worst nightmare. Exercising in public when you have body image issues is hard enough. Thanks for making it so much…

Yes, I am not even a little bit surprised that the woman who wrote “Dear Future Husband” is just “meh” about exercising her right to vote.

Not surprising. This news is in line with my limited knowledge of Meghan Trainor.

I feel like some period want an official announcement along the lines of a wedding invitation. Like my friend happened to mention it and she knew I would listen if she wanted/needed to talk about anything. But, I felt it wasn’t my business to ask every month about it.

This is why I keep any “that seems odd” thoughts to myself. I don’t want to “out” anyone who has been struggling or even someone who is not ready to talk about their current, successful pregnancy yet.

My mother always told me that you never ask a woman if she’s pregnant. Never. Don’t even imply that she might be pregnant unless she brings it up or she’s literally holding a baby in her arms.

She doesn’t address it in the article, but can you imagine if she has been trying to get pregnant for years but has had miscarriages? Between 20 and 33% of pregnancies end in miscarriage, but no one seems to think about that when they’re badgering other people about if they are pregnant, why they aren’t pregnant, and…

I’ve read through most of the replies, and in your shoes, I’d still cancel. It makes your point that you’re done with her and her shit, it leaves her wedding attended by people who actually plan on being in her life, and it lets you do something that’s actually fun that night.

Send a card (gift not manditory) with your Regrets and Best Wishes. Be done with it! Don’t bother to go. Just wish her well and never look back. Problem solved.

If you’ve been thinking about dropping her, why go to the wedding at all? Your friendship is waning, you don’t want to be involved. Don’t go.
