The Gasp Response

Lady

Venting here: I'm so sick and tired of people gasping when I tell them I'm trying to conceive. I'm 40 - not 80.

I mean you'd think I just told them, "I'm seriously trying to lose 15lbs and I've decided to have my left leg removed! I'm so excited."

I wish I hadn't told anyone but my close friends. But even some of them gasp when I tell them I'm trying and one even told me - "Good luck, but you know your chances aren't that great."

What I said in response was, "You're right. But I'm gonna give it a try anyway."

What I wish I had said, "Yeah. My odds aren't that good but they're better than you finding a man sitting on your couch eating cheetos."

Ugggg!

Vent done.
