    So true..I would like to add one that was said to me.

    I was dumbfounded so I didn't have a response.



    I am jealous of your marriage this lady said. She then added I would love it if my husband was gone all the time and the money was still being deposited in my account! "You Have The Perfect Marriage".



    All I could do was stand there with my mouth open trying to understand what I had just heard her say! Did I missunderstand? No she repeated when I didn't respond! All I could do was turn and walk away!

    People do say stupid things. Some are obviously worse than others! Sometimes people will say anything rather than nothing, when nothing would be better. I don't think they're purposely being malignant, but that doesn't make it okay.

    iv been asked many of these questions and had those exact thoughts in my head! some times i just want to be like " are you dumb! did you really just ask me that, lets use some common sense here"

    But clearly no one else understands!
