Well...today I signed onto the Soap-Opera Net!! All this drama! Anywho, here's what I think about the situation. Star-dust knows we love her (no matter if what she says on here is true or some alter-ego she's made up) we love reading her posts and listening to her nutsoid chatter all day. It's half the reason some of us sign on so much...I've actually been at work (I don't have a computer at work) and thought, "What is Star-Dust saying right now on BnB?" Hmmm...signs of being a loser or an addict? There's a thin line I believe. Anyway, back to what I was saying. She knows we love her and what she has to say...she'll either come back, or she won't. It's her choice depending on how she feels and we won't judge her either way.
4thBump -- Don't apologize. Sisters fight. It's definitely what we're best at! I'm sorry that a falling out that you two had lead to this publicly, but I think I speak for most of us when I say that I understand. Hopefully, you two will make up.
Whew...only one other thing I was going to say before I read all those posts...
Babytots - I didn't connect with my son until a year after he was born. There are many reasons for this, but mainly that I just couldn't connect with him while he was in the womb. It wasn't a gender thing, I wanted a boy, but I felt I just needed to see him to really feel like a mommy. After he was born, I still just couldn't get close to him...I think it was probably some mild post-partum depression and a WHOLE lotta frustration! Two months after he was born, I deployed to Iraq for 10 months. So, of course, I didn't connect with him then. Finally, when I returned a few days after his 1st birthday I began to connect with him. Don't get me wrong, I loved him all along, but it was so hard to feel like a mom. It was such a new experience. I never had those "motherly feelings" that some people talk about (knowing when the baby is hungry before they cry, knowing right when the baby went poop before smelling it, knowing that baby just wants a hug)...I had to create a regimine. Check the diaper, clean, OK, give a bottle, not hungry, OK, hold and bounce up and down a little bit, that's what he needed. Anyway...just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in the whole not connecting thing.
OK well I hope that everything here in this forum works out as far as people knowing that we love them and want them to stay. Talk to everyone soon.
