My mother has MS, and sometimes we joke about it, as a family. It's better to laugh than cry about it!

You seem a tad on the sensitive side, OP. The ex should not succeed in getting a rise out of you so easily.

Given the fact that OP seems genuinely upset about it, why would you assume it was some lighthearted teasing?

Seems like you are the one who is a tad on the insensitive and socially inept side.  You should not make assumptions or be so flippant to someone who's quiet clearly upset [/quote]

Sigh. If you knew how to read, you'd have read I understood that perfectly.

OP has MS. Life is difficult for her, and will be for the foreseeable future. Bullying from the ex should be water off a duck's back. My aunts, back in the day when MS was less known, said the most horrible things to my mother: told her she was feigning so that she wouldn't have to work, told her she was crazy, accused her of having AIDS, etc... Unfortunately, being chronically ill brings this galaxy of social issues that you might not have expected, and you get to find out who your real supporters are. In my mother's case, it was her boyfriend, who carried her up and down the stairs to their apartment and married her.

Tough love, OP: you'll have to be stronger than that. Your real supporters will come, but you have to be strong as well.[/quote]

So... because she has MS, she should never get upset about things?

Lady, you're a nut.  Your little stories about your family (which, frankly, it sounds like being an whole is woven into your DNA) has no relevance to OP especially when you're using it to tell OP that her own exboyfriend being cruel to her is unimportant.  [/quote]
