…have to be the most hurtful words that an infertile can hear or the most hurtful reason that anyone can give an infertile, for not including them in something, or inviting them somewhere.
Despite the pain those words cause, I hear them quite often and, as you can probably guess, they were the words I heard in relation to my missing invite to my bff’s kids’ party. My other bff confronted her and those were the very words she used… one of my closest friends, one of the only people in the world who know what we are going through/have been through and she used the very words that hurt more than any others.
I’m hurting so much at the moment… I really hope our friendship survives this. I know there is no way she could know the pain those words bring, no one who hasn’t been down this path knows that pain, but I can’t help the way that I am feeling either.
Guess we’ll all have to watch this space, to see how things pan out…
So sorry about your friend’s “insensitivity”. Just know that this too shall come to pass.
Sending you hugs & kisses
XOXO
Thank you so much for your support 🙂 I know that it will pass, but I hope it does with our friendship intact, I know what I am like…I back off when I am hurt and tend to lick my wounds for a while.
Thinking of you ((hugs)) hope you feel better soon xxx
