FU DH...and mil, and sil and ... All ya'all. Can you say FB drama?
Let me preface this by saying dh does not have an fb cz it's too much drama with the ex and he isn't very Internet savvy.
Earlier this week, dh tells me that his mom is irritated because she hasn't seen enough posted photos of our baby. And that she also upset because I don't call HER enough to invite her over to see rhe baby.
I was like: WTF?!
First of all, I am 40 years old and if you're concerned about what I do or don't post on FB, why not shoot me a private FB message and ask? Second of all, if you'd like to see my baby, barring the fact that I have three other children of my own that I am caring for, along with DH's 13 yo son, please pick up the phone and ask or invite me some where. Don't complain to your son.
But this FB issue escalated. Mil asked sil and nephew and niece and bil if they've seen any photos. They all came to the conclusion that as of a certain date, I blocked them all. Dh came home today and very SERIouslY asked me if he could talk to me. Then asked me if I blocked his family. I said no. I hadn't. He was all upset, telling me how his entire family is upset because they can't see pics of the baby on FB and can I please check.
I look and show him that no one is blocked. He's having a meltdown so I tell him I'll look into it
So, 30 min later, ions the problem. I had made "groups" one day and somehow the group with his family in it was not getting acces to my mobile uploads so I adjusted it and let home know.
THEN he asks me to call his mom. Um no.
Then he asks me to sent an email so I just send over a pm saying sOmwthing like "dh told me you bought I may have blocked you. I think I fixed the problem sinker me know. I has tried to make friend and family groups but somehow it blocked you from viewing my mobile uploads. Next time let me know if you're not seeing my posts and I can probably fix it sooner".
I went off on dh and told him to tell his mom to contact me if she had a question or an issue and I'd rather not hear about her complaints for him movin forward. If she really wanted to be friends, then a friend would reach out, NOT rile up the whole family.
Sheesh!!! I'm 40 effing years old!

Oh I know how toxic she can
Oh I know how toxic she can be!
She's been divorced from fil for 20 years but still brings him up any time she cans. Ss13 can spend the night with her and will come home saying he's upset with his grandfather.
Did I mention fil pays her alimony for life and she has never worked a day in her life...
Oh I get you here! Passive
Oh I get you here! Passive agressive? I'll say!
I mean, I wrote a gd privat message to his family (against my better judgement) and not a damned one even responded.
Childish.
If you can't call me
And you can't respond to my email
but you have no problem picking up the phone to complain to each other and my dh?
Chances are we aren't going to be better friends. No matter how often you complain to mush that that's all you want.
Sorry you had to go through
Sorry you had to go through that! What a pain! Too bad FB doesn't have additional buttons... You know, like the "like" button. Just need a "dislike" and a "FU" one too! Haha
Remember the good 'ol days,
Remember the good 'ol days, when if you had something to say to somebody, you called them? If you wanted to see somebody, you invited them over?
Now, you can sit in your living room and pretend to be social and involved with your family, when really, you just don't want to bother. And then, you can sit back and complain that other family members aren't involving you enough in their life.
A friend of mine, just the other day, said to me, "If you had FB, you could see the pictures of when I went to such and such place."
If she really wanted me to see them, she could've invited me over to see them. Oh, wait, that would actually take some effort.
I usually pass over the FB
I usually pass over the FB friends that post pictures of their babies everyday but I like all my FB friends that post pictures of their dogs/cats everyday in response to all the baby pictures. }:)
