Facebook posts starting 'Most won't but my family and real friends will'

[DragonTrainer3]

AIBU to find these passive aggressive and annoying? I keep being sent these things in support of eg autism or cancer.

Since both my kids are on the spectrum and DH is in remission from cancer, I feel that I've done my bit with this and don't need someone saying I'm not their 'real' friend because I don't want to pass on some stupid FB comment.

What I hate the most is the people posting about missing their mums/dads on mother’s/father’s day every year for 10 years

I don't mind this. People are entitled to feel sad and to remember their own parents how they like. At least it's real, rather than the fake ridiculous stuff we've been talking about. My mum died years ago and I have never felt the need to do a Mothers Day post for her, but I can't get too worked up about people who do.

Having said that, the ones who post passive aggressive posts about their dead relatives annoy me, "Fathers Day is really hard for a lot of people, including me who lost my darling Pops 22 years ago. Please think for a minute about people who are suffering before you post thoughtlessly". THOSE annoy me.

A bit off topic, but when I ran Race For Life I got telephoned by a guy from the breast cancer charity. He started by thanking me for raising 500, then when I was feeling happy and chatty he said but the awful thing is that your 500 isn't enough, there are still women dying, don't you think that's terrible? So we need you to start a direct debit to the charity

I had that happen to me too. It was years ago when Race for Life was a new thing. I've never run another one since.

Me neither. I'd never do it again.

Those posts and chain mails of a similar nature die with me. I will never pass them on.
