I would say, "Why WAS's feel the need to kick in the gut is beyond me!" But reflecting on when I was a WAW, this doesn't surprise me at all. I just wasn't quite as cruel as many of them on here. Remember, I didn't mean what I was saying, so keep that in mind.
You handled that so well!!
You might want to read my post today after my WAS gave me a little too much Alien Spew & I decided to give him a bit of his own medicine. It's one of those, "Don't try this at home", as It'Kat says.
Thinking of you & sending lots of positive thoughts your way.
