[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You seem to really think they owe it to you to tell you this information. It's kind of astounding that you would think that![/quote]

Op here. I have taken my humble pie and admitted that perhaps there are good reasons to not disclose. I’ll admit that in hindsight. But I also take offense to those social media friends that posts family details nonstop, drawing people in for clicks or nice comments about their families, lives, accomplishments, etc. they are putting it out there for everyone to admire and comment on, drawing us in and making us part of the extended family. Affirmations.

Maybe part of my humble pie approach is that I just won’t take the bait anymore and refuse clicking or providing comments to essentially make them feel better about the pics or updates. It doesn’t always get to go one way. Like many of the more angry posters have said, none of my business. My response going forward could very well be, just don’t ask me to participate in the game. I think its a fair response. They knew that people would ask, especially posting as much as they do. It’s within their right to withhold it. But it’s also within my right to ignore future posts.

I already know that some of you will be like “ no don’t do that,” but seriously it’s an exchange. People have choice to share and to respond.

Consequences or else it will always be a Lucy/Charlie Brown situation.

So you “liked” their happy posts and feel they consequently owe you and should share everything with you?  Wow. I have to agree with the Pp who said you are just dying to know that they are hiding some deep dark terrible secret. You are an adult and it is on you if you are drawn in and admire and comment. You can refuse their invitation. You should. Yes, you should ignore future posts. Unfriend them. That will show ‘em.
