What . Can I get a TLDR on what ' s going on . How does one get that many downvotes . <| sep |> Yeah , like 2 months ago I saw an old friend post a photo on facebook of his newborn daughter and there had been zero previous mention of them even expecting . I could see from everyone else ' s shocked responses that they had generally not made it known . It was a real huge punch in the gut it seemed to hit me harder than when people announced it all along . In retrospect , they announced on facebook that they had gotten married back in February , completely out of the blue with no previous mention of an engagement , and the baby was born in September . So . yeah . <| sep |> Why is this uplifting news ? Now im depressed because i wasn ' t born there .
