<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Could someone offer some advice on how to handle some social situations...graciously? The last month or two at work has been a regular string of presentations or celebrations of one kind or another. I have been GF for almost a year now, but find myself becoming more and more irritated by watching everyone else feasting on non-GF goodies. I work in a relatively small facility and most everyone knows my situation but the stupid, insensitive comments are endless. I know they mean well and I guess I'll just have to toughen up but I can't help feeling somewhat exasperated right now (just came back from another one...pastries this time). I'm certainly not adverse to bringing my own treat if I know there is a celebration coming up. I'm trying to be gracious, but feel like I'm going to scream at the next person who tells me...wow, this is really good...etc., etc. Will this get easier in time? Any good comments to make? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Joanne
