Why do I torture myself w/ Facebook
Its so upsetting seeing all the people I grew up with with their beautiful families. I'm happy for them and love seeing the cute kids, but its just a painful reminder of what I want and dream of and currently don't have. And its so hard to avoid it b/c I still want to go on and chat with people.

Re: Why do I torture myself w/ Facebook
I'm sorry. I can relate as well. I love seeing pics of the kids, but I feel left out. Sometimes I feel like just canceling my account.

Re: Why do I torture myself w/ Facebook
Lots of my friends have 3-4 kids already. It makes me sad (but happy for them of course). Of course they ask, "Do u not want kids?"

Re: Why do I torture myself w/ Facebook
You are definetely not alone...You do a search and it's a see of people who have kids.
Your friends post pics of their kids and their pics appear on your page...It's torture

Re: Why do I torture myself w/ Facebook
I know exactly how you feel. The best is when you email with them and they ask if you have any kids. I say a quick nope and elaborate on something else, like my job. It hurts to see when they have newborns and toddlers and it sure as hell hurts more to see them with TEENAGERS for Christ's sake.
I seriously want to crawl in a hole and die already. I can't wait until they create that new thing where you can eliminate updates from certain people. Sad to say everyone with kids is off my list, I just cannot deal with it for my own mental health!
