[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a tough one. As someone who dealt with infertility the thought of NEVER having a child can really wear on you.[b] Also if she is doing IVF or other treatment the hormones can literally make some people crazy.[/b]

That said, you don’t need to take abuse from someone. I would try to be there for her however you can but it’s also fine to put a little distance between you. Maybe texting is easier than going out to eat, or just make yourself available every other month for a couple hours.

FWIW, my mom is a really negative person and complains about everything. Going to any restaurant with her is painful because something, actually many things, are wrong in her opinion. I just suck it up and have an extra glass of wine.[/quote]

My neighbor was insane when she did fertility drugs.  She completely lost her filter and her ability to read cues of people getting uncomfortable, as well as he ability to just stop talking.

That lost filter allowed all of her internal monologues to come out for all to hear.

When you are talking about a nice or fun person, it means they become a little more sensitive or a little bit outrageous.  My neighbor has a fun girl in general, and she became super shocking, scandalous and often funny as hell.

I would imagine if she is generally a more difficult person, that loss of filter would result in something like you are describing, a crazy mean person who can't stop complaining.[/quote]
