Feelings Hurt by RL friends

Hello all, was wondering if people could tell me what their RL friends (and family) did when they heard about your m/c?
I mean did you get cards, texts, calls, mails etc?

My friends and family have known since Weds and have not heard from anyone except a call from my mum.

I did send a mail to my BF who lives abroad and she has sent a mail back, telling me to 'not think about things too much'

I know it's dopey, but I am getting very sensitive about it now and am also getting very mad and emotional.

I know my losses are not important to other people, but surely they can see that they are important to me?
Suppose I was looking for some sort of gesture - I very much hope other people the support they needed?

Hi Jules - thanks for posting back. Just wanted to say congrats to you too, great news, I really hope everything goes well.

On the friend front, things have improved. One sent an email apologising for the Sat visit and we all went out last night and had a good time.

I think they were all just embarrassed and realised how crap they had been! So feel better now they know how I feel iyswim and everything is back to normal.

Best wishes to you
STx
