Another FB WTF
Last night I posted on FB about a great breakfast recipe I'd found and how excited I was to try it today. A girl I know from high school, who often makes disjointed rambling comments on stuff, posted a comment about how she used to overeat when her kids were gone too. ???? I simply posted back that N wasn't gone, with a :- ). This morning I woke up to a multi-paragraph PM from her about how I needed to determine the source of my loneliness and find a hobby that might replace my need to constantly fill the void for with food. She went on to tell me that she understands the insecurity of being a single parent and that she too desperately wished for a new relationship, but that I need to find some way to find happiness within myself and that turning to food and other external sources is just not the answer and that it isn't healthy. She said she was very worried about me suggested I seek counseling.
Um... WTF??!!? Or maybe I'm just excited to try a new recipe this morning.
Re: Another FB WTF
I just read her comment. . . um, what?? Was she drunk? So, so odd.
On a side note, that recipe sounds delish. How was it? We're out of milk, so I'll be making it tomorrow after we hit the store
No more baby siggie pics. Boo.
N is still asleep so I haven't made it yet. I'll let you know.
Wow. Clearly, she has her own issues with food and is pushing those issues onto everyone else.
That recipe sounded healthy and delicious, and in NO WAY did it indicate any sort of "overeating" or "loneliness" whatsoever!!!
WTF. Unfriend and block that psycho.
And enjoy your lovely breakfast.

LOL - If quinoa with blueberries cures lonliness (even temporarily), I say hand it out with Zantec and make the world happier!
Maybe there should be a sanity test for signing up for FB: if you pass, great you can have an account, but if you don't pass, then someone automatically reviews your posts before submitting them.
Example:
Heck it's job creation b/c I bet we'd need a lot of reviewers out there doing real-time FB edits.
Are you united with the CCOKCs?

I agree that she's projecting onto you. What a crazy! Hopefully she will get the help she needs.
BTW, I hope she reads the response I just typed up to your post.
Does she realize how thin you are? You could eat 10 times more and still look great!
Wow, she's a little ballsy and off.
Wrangling babies since 2010
PAIF and SAIF welcome. IVF questions welcome, too.
Sounds like she should be reaching for the antipsychotics instead of the food...

This is just hilarious.
If your FB status said "I'm lonely and sad so I just ate an entire gallon of ice cream and a chocolate cake", maybe her response would make sense.
What a Wac-a-do! It's awful, but I *almost* want to post something in regards to your pic today, something along the lines of I'm so happy you found a hobby, and so quickly!
