[quote=Anonymous]Trying to make a long story short: Coworker and his wife are struggling with infertility like my husband and I. The wife wants to chat with me all the time about it. I don't really want to talk about it. I talk about it in anon posts on a fb group but not to people IRL. Finally, I realized part of the reason I don't want to talk to her about it and I feel like a huge jerk. They have a blended family (she has 3 bio kids, he has 3 from a previously marriage as well). I guess I just don't feel really comfortable talking about infertility with someone who has all those kids to go home to. I know secondary infertility is a thing and I'm sure it hurts just as much as my primary infertility but idk. Is there a way that I could figure out how to reframe this to be okay with talking to her. FWIW, I'm close with my coworker and mentioned it to him. He told his wife and now we are all friends. This is just a weird sticking point for me.[/quote]
