Am I too sensitive?


There's been a few posts on BnB that have upset me recently. It's not because of who wrote them and it wasn't anything like bullying or anything stupid like that...and it certainly wasn't the posters fault by any means, but they've (the posts, not the poster) upset me because of my own circumstances. These things are completely harmless, random posts and stuff. To anyone else and without a 70000 word explanation, the fact that I get upset is completely irrational.

Does anyone else get like that, something that is said, completely innocent and often off topic, makes you just want to sob?

I'm not by any means saying that people shouldn't post some things though...just wondering if anyone else gets like this too?

I have been on a BNB light diet as i have too been getting upset with alot of posts and remarks and threads. Not as much in the way that i have been insulted or takend on personally as a person.

But ye i do so understand where you are coming from.

Things also in the line of our losses and TTC now for over a year, some silly things just plain hurt. Not intended or focused on anyone but ye, you know what i mean.

mynxie i know how you feel.

Totally understand what you mean - sometimes I have sobbed my heart out at a post somewhere, and to be honest, I'm not totally sure why, or even who, I'm crying for...if that makes sense??

Yes, I totally understand what you're saying and i'm the same way. Its that very reason why I only stick to this section. I very occassionally go into TTC section then slap myself up the head for doing it!

I know what I was like at the start of TTC - excited, anxious, asking lots of questions and i'm sure I too made LTTC'ers offended or upset without meaning too. Its no ones fault because unless you have been there you cannot possible understand. Some things are a given and people can be VERY stupid in thinking that some things they say won't hurt others, but generally speaking, the little things that get to me I have to pull myself up on and remember I was once a 'reagular' TTC'er with all the hope in the world.

I hope that made sense!!!

But yep Mynxie, i'm with ya hun, it is still hurtful none the less.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

You're not alone Mynxie and please don't feel bad for feeling like that.

There has been a couple of upsetting posts over this last couple of week (around the time of your post maybe) - very sad & perfectly understandable for you to feel like this over them (assuming Im thinking of the right posts).

Its hard hunny *hugs* x
