<25 BFPs!! 12 births!! Welcome to the world turtle babies!>

Kit and Newbie- I pledge to give my best half-hearted/ nonchalant pee possible. And further pledge to post on the thread, the results as soon as possible. Sound like a plan?
 
Hey ladies....tell me what you think of this...

Tonight, I went to the shops to get a few final bits of Christmas shopping. I was in a clothes shop (NEXT for those in the UK) and as is often the case, they have the men's section upstairs. There is an escalator to take you up but you have to come back down the stairs. Anyway (there is a point) as I made my way back down the stairs (of which there were a couple of dozen) I saw a man holding onto the handrail going down the stairs sideways, slowly and one by one. He was obviously physically challenged in some way, so without even thinking, as I drew level with him I simply said (hello, can you manage or can I help?) and that is word for word. Well, if looks could kill...."If I needed help I'd ask for it - don't be so f***ing patronising!!" was what he spat at me :wacko: I can assure you my tone was even and far from patronising....and I neither verbally or literally patted him on the head. I just don't get it....:shrug:

I came home and told OH about it and he seemed baffled but said maybe the guy had a bad day? What do you ladies think? :shrug: I felt quite upset which I know is silly but it really took me by surprise :shock:

It is definitely one of those situations where you have take responsibility for yourself. You KNOW that you didn't do a single thing wrong so you need to let him take responsibility for his actions. However he reacted or felt was only in his control... it holds no bearing or reflection on you. Understand? Don't you dare allow someone else to make you feel horrid about doing a nice thing... it will only keep you from doing nice things for people who do deserve it.

Thank you oh wise one :flower::hugs: I know exactly what you're saying but it wasn't half horrible :nope: but it won't stop me helping the next person either :thumbup:

... How old is a "wise one"??

:haha: Well, nowhere near my crumbly age anyway...just ask Holly! :winkwink:
 
Ooooh had he said that to me I would have probably muttered under my breath of course " well fuxk you then was only trying to help " and then walked away :haha:
 
Yes Newbie- I will post results either way... bfn or bfp... as long as you promise not to be crushed for me if it's a bfn. :haha:

I promise not to test before Christmas day. i have two more (slightly) cheapies in my stash and the sacred digi... i have to stay out of the dollar store between now and next saturday... unfortunately i pass it twice a day!

I went ahead and told my DF that we would actively TTC come late May or June... sure hope I will be able to surprise her with a bfp and tell her scratch what i said earlier!
 
Well my lovelies, I must be off to bed now. I will be back on here on Friday as I'm away again on a business trip/Christmas bash (sigh - another lie spinning session)

Looking forward to the catch up already :flower:

Take care, love and luck :hugs:

PS- Molly, did your OH ever pass comment on the joke? :shrug:
