Some of them are good people I was excited to reconnect with- just people who had faded away because we had different paths, but the most recent one was an ex I haven't talked to in almost 20 years. It ended bad. Really, really bad. To the point where I tossed my phone when I saw who had messaged, and didn't even bother looking at it to see what he wanted. No good can come of that. *shudders*Anyway, he's about the eighth one (again, not just ex-boyfriends, but also friends) to reemerge in a matter of months- all have been absent from my life for many years. I occasionally run into people I haven't seen in a while, but not a deluge like this and not them intentionally seeking me out and contacting me.At first, I just thought it was odd. Now, I'm kind of wondering why so many. I haven't really changed anything. I don't know if I've just hit that point in my life where people start looking me u... less

Her doctor told her she could either have a D&C or use medications to finish the process. She chose meds and went to a local pharmacy to get them, at which point the pharmacist very publicly refused to fill the prescription. From what I can tell, their debate about the medication was loud enough that everyone in line heard why the woman was there and the woman ultimately left in tears- in part because this was a pregnancy she was excited about and was already devastated over the loss and in part because he was refusing to help and embarrassed her. He never said anything about transferring the prescription, but ended up having another location fill it after she left. It sounds like he took this as a pro-life debate, despite the fact that the pregnancy was no longer viable. I'm not even sure that's relevant, but it might be to you. Is there fault here and, if so, who is at fault? What... less
