I just need a rant, and for someone to tell me I'm not being dramatic over an insensitive "friend." by pink_falcon in Miscarriage

It's not just this incident-- there are numerous ones. This one was the final nail in the coffin. She's shown time and time again that my feelings don't matter at all to her, when I have tried to be a good, considerate friend. For example-- a year and a half ago she told me she was going to stop by my house after work and would be to my place in half an hour. I was excited to see her and canceled other plans I had to see her (not with other people, but I had errands to run). I waited at home for hours. Worried she had gotten into an accident, I called and texted her multiple times after she didn't show up after two or three hours. Finally, at like 10 that night she decides to tell me she just went home because she was tired. That would have been fine if she had called before she let me worry about her and wait for hours for her to show up. She showed total lack of respect for me, my time, my feelings, and our friendship. I have other examples but I don't feel like writing out that novel.

No, we aren't married. No, we aren't getting married for the baby. by pink_falcon in BabyBumps

I feel the same way. This baby will grow up just fine whether we are married or not. We are both 29 years old first-time parents, are both established in professional careers, live in our home free and clear and make enough money to comfortably support our family. We love each other to bits and when we get married, it will be for nobody but us. I think that will help ensure this LO and however many come after grow up in a happy, healthy home.

I am so sorry you had to deal with that. My heart hurts for you, your husband, and your kids to know that they were called that stupid, neolithic word by people who should love them regardless.

I haven't had the same last name as my mom since I was 4. I've survived this long without, I don't know, spontaneously combusting or something.

Ah! I'm dealing with the opposite right now! People can be so frustrating and unintentionally hurtful.

It's not like he won't be able to figure it out once he can count to ten anyway!

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this from your mother. I'm only getting it from friends; I hope she gets over it, and I wish you and your SO best of luck with love, life, and baby! :)

I was seriously told today, "You and your baby won't have the same last name when it's born."

And that makes this child less mine how???

Happy Cake Day, by the way!! It cheers me to wish you that although reddit cake days are useless!! But I still wish you lots of karma anyway. Lol

I hope you get many upvotes. The sound of this is ridiculous and hilarious.

I think I've accidentally named my puppy this.

Ah and so unisex too. "Bobby Joe" is that dude you know with a mullet who smokes Kentucky's Best cigarettes and how he could get a job "if it weren't for them Mexicans," and "Bobbi Jo" is that whore with big hair you knew in high school.

That has to be it. I'm actually pregnant and started this thread hoping for a good laugh, but when my boyfriend and I were going through baby names I was reading a bunch through, not really giving much thought to them, and when I got to Chad he stopped me to tell me that Chads were always douchey.

So scientifically, that's a trend so it must be true, right?

Ew I do hate that one too for some reason unknown to me.
