Ps... I would also feel a phone call would be only to make it easier on yourself (I know that's not true, but in the moment that is how it would feel) after all, if its going to be hard for me, and it will be, every step... While I would be so so happy for you, it will be hard... So if its going to be hard for me.... Well... Unfair as this might be, I figure you can handle the uncomfortableness of seeing me cry... And maybe, just maybe, if you really care about me... You will cry to. Cause this sucks. It really sucks, and its unfair... But I love you more than I can say.... And I would appreciate you sharing my pain.. Just as I will share your joy.
At least... That is how it would feel for me.
And I cannot explain how much it means to me that you have thought so carefully about how to do this "right".
Exactly what Myturn said. I would much prefer face to face and privately - not in front of other people.
DH and I had been trying for 4 years when my brother and SIL thought they would annouce it in the middle of lunch on xmas day. Needless to say I was very upset and had to put a fake smile on when I was gutted on the inside.
