How many times when your bf-gf walks out of a room, and the questions start coming! how many times can you answer, no really they are fine, yes i would tell you the truth. After a while you are like ask them yourself they can answer. This is very annoying to me because this is what everyone does when my bf leaves a room. So how many non cfers get drilled when your bf-gf leaves the room. Especially the w hispering. Was just wondering if anyone avoids going to crowded places because people can be so RUDE!

i think they meant they date a cfer....and all of their non cf friends ask tons of questions when thei bf/gf (with cf) isnt around....and they dont like it because its kinda like talking behind their back, instead of the non cfers asking the cf person the questions themselves....hmm i dont know if i got the explaination anybetter

I understood it as... This is about non-CFers who are dating CFers. The CF girlfriend or boyfriend leaves the room or what have you, and friends or family start asking the non-CFer a whole mess of questions about it.

So as a for instance... If me and my boyfriend Mike were at a party. I go off to the bathroom, and then other people at the party start asking him about me and my CF. That sort of a situation.

My dad does that to my wife, he catches her when I am not around and asks her how I am "really" doing.
I think he thinks I am covering up when I answer that I am fine, that could be because when he asks me how I am doing I don't think he really wants to know. Oh well, it is what it is.

How many times have you asked someone, "how are you today?" , not caring what the answer really is because your just trying to be polite?

what i meant was why cant people ask questions themself. my boyfriend can talk. family is the worst. they stare and when he leaves the room they drill me. maybe im to protective of him, but we avoid a lot of crowded places. i promised iwould be nice. im sure you go through this. i think next time iwill say, come visit us at home , then you can see what all is involved. so all of us who date a cfer may not have it , we watch what you go through,so the non cfers bug us to!!!!!!!!!!! we see you hurting, and we cant do anything , except be there. everyone always has advice to give me, i guess it probably is part of being with him. sometimes we non cfers just are carefull of what we say, because we dont want to hurt anyone on here by asking or saying the wrong thing thats why i wasnt for sure how to say this.

I'm sorry, but this thread title really made me laugh...

Yeah, I hate it when people ask my husband or parents how I'm doing when I'm not around. I'm like, just ask me. I'm not easily offended.

One time I was out from school with a chest infection. A few girls in my class asked my friend what was wrong with me. My friend told them I had cystic fibrosis. One of them said whats that? Before my friend could answer, a girl standing there said "oh my cousin had and she died from it when she was 17" (I was 15 at the time) They were all like "oh my god" and after they were all nice and sympathetic towards me. I would get these sympathetic looks in the corridoors for ages!!

I so know what you mean with the quote from above my boyfrined (w/cf and diabetes) parents always tells me you are so good to be in his life we thought he would never be with anyone etc etc that really annoys. I sometimes get annoyed when we visit friends for tea and they whisper to me is BF allowed to eat this? why don't you ask him yourself geez

I think family is the worst. They want to invite you to these dinners, where you only know 2 people there, thats the ones that live there. When you are on oxygen, you do not want to be around 100 strange people staring at you. We have finally told people this, and the same ones keep inviting. They ask what kind of foods can he eat , can he eat normal food. Next time i think i will say something stupid, like we get all of our food sent in from over seas. I know this is really nothing, but i wish every one would treat him like a person. People should realize if you have cf, you are still human, you just have cf!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Last year I when I was SIXTEEN, we had friends over that I didn't know too well. One of my mums friends had this bag of sweets and was offering them around. She got to me and I put my hand out to take one, but she pulled them away and said "hang on" She started calling my mum from across the room and said in a hushed tone "is it alroght for her to have a sweet?" My mum was like "yeeeessss" so she was like (patronisingly) "Ok dear, there you go" UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif" border="0">
