"Don't you like kids?"
Yep. That's it. I hate kids. What a weird question.
But the pity look. The LOOK that they give when they find out you don't have kids. "Awww, she'll never know the fullfillment and richness being a mother brings."
OR.......
The "You don't want kids anyways." comment. I can't decide which one makes me more mad. I don't have to decide (I can hear my Mom, "Is that something you really need to decide?") but that's not what I mean.
I was told yesterday that I should just start saying I'll pray for them. She meant a specific person about a different thing, but hey, it could work for this, too.

I'm sorry Cat. Could you say something like "well we're-a-trying" with a big smile? Or does that just make it worse with more questions? You'd think most people would stop there since having sex is a personal and private thing.
Not the same, but I do know how annoying it is to have nosey, know-it-alls constantly asking you the same questions. I'm really close to typing up and printing out index cards about Sammy so I don't have to deal with it anymore. I'll print you up some cards to hand out to your folks about you too :) :) (trying to cheer you up here - hugs)
HA! Cards would be great! Yeah, I know about the personal thing, too. I think it's weird that people will go on about it since it is about sex, you know? Weirdos.
Hugs..
Its hard to know what to say in any situation.. and how people will receive what you are saying or feeling.
Hang in there.. I love you!
