[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They’re trying to be nice and not make you feel bad for missing out on children. There are great things about being a DINK, enjoy it, but it’s not much deeper than people trying to be polite and encouraging. [/quote] This is so bizarre to me. If she's just responding to a question about her summer vacation plans, why are people "feeling bad for her" and "politely trying to make her feel better?" Someone's vacation plans would never make me think I needed to cheer them up because their life differs from mine. [/quote] But I think that’s the thing, people can’t help but feel bad for them on some level and feel they are missing out. I’m not saying that’s right, but I do think deep down that is how a lot of people feel. People instinctively try make others “feel better” about situations they perceive as not ideal all the time. This is the case, even if someone is happy with their circumstance. [/quote]
