Rather than focusing on the one who walked away, count your blessings and focus on those who remain.

I've mentioned other deleters before. But this was the first time I mentioned her.

And the only reason I mentioned her was because I was responing to a poster that said sometimes people you met over the internet stop being friends with you over trivial reasons.

Maybe because all you do is whine and show your anger. I would delete you also. Nothing worse than a Debbie Downer..JMO

You know anger is a very toxic emotion. I know it happens... Especially when I am driving in the heat and there's allot of traffic and idiots on the roads, but I work on it. Life is going to be a long unpleasant journey if one is in a constant state of anger. It leads to bitterness, a belly full of regrets and an "off" perspective where one sees more bad than good. Typically expects the worse and usually is not disappointed. I say expect the best- you can always lower your standards, but with low expectations where can u go???

The whole concept of a stress and venting thread, or of a peeve thread, is negative. I'd rather concentrate on positives.

I do realize, though, that we ALL have a need to vent sometimes!

It might be kind of fun for a couple of guys to join FB, and then see who can obtain the highest number of insignificant, meaningless, acquaintances in a set period of time. We could call it.....Racing for friends.

I am one mad mama and anger never does anyone any good. I suppose going to gripe about the life with children.... Why don't they come with warning labels or terms of agreement???? For instance, BE WARE this kid will turn into someone u didn't rear him to be. He will lie, talk to u crazy, break your heart and induce premature aging while sucking the life out of your hopes dreams and aspirations... Then a parent should be given the option of rejecting the terms... Oh yeah there should also be an extended return policy say for 21 years or so LOL... I am starting to feel a little better

There's always the option of never having kids.

I don't want kids so I'm never having them.

People know what causes kids. Birth control is not foolproof.

YEAH u t right about that option, but it's a little too late, I am a little too gone way far beyond that point. Having children is definitely something u want to give allot of consideration. There are some pros...

I know why your saying this tonight, as I read your other post on the other thread and I'm sorry for that shock and anger you had to go through this evening. Boys turning into men can be a difficult experience for both the parent and the child. Temper your anger with remembering youth and the stupid things do. I understand your anger, but don't forget to still show love through the disappointment. Don't let this one incident create a bigger problem for you and your son.

When you said rejecting the terms it made me think of coming into this world wet and cold, and after experiencing the even colder people on this planet, wanting to say I'm sorry I reject the assignment on planet earth.

LOL I feel your pain however if kids came with warning labels who would get one and try to raise them? There is always a good chance that things will change and just like everything else in this world,,,,,, and "this too will change" Honestly if you weren't a good mother, you never would have noticed the issue or problem to begin with. So keep doing what you need to and things will be different soon.
