I stopped pretending to like baby showers and it changed everything

I used to force myself to attend, but now I skip them and no one has disowned me yet.

No disownment yet? That's the real baby shower gift.

After skipping my niece's shower, I found people care less than we fear. @singh.olivia, the real gift is the peace from not faking it, not just no disownment.

My buddy ditched a cousin's wedding to go camping. The family gossip lasted a week, then everyone moved on to a new drama. He still says sleeping under the stars was worth the brief side-eye.
