Me: "happy belated birthday to me too... StIll growing strong.... Drink..a toast"
Friend: "yeah I just got one, #2 was in the restroom. You know, it takes a strong woman to have children, and you're not"
Please read the last sentence. can someone out there translate this for me? Still smh
Btw, It's my choice not to have kids. Is my "friend" trying to insult me?

You said it was a nonsense reply! It is ! I think you talk as if you are a strong woman! You do not have to defend your choice about children to anyone! Enjoy your life, maybe find new friends!

Instead of posting it on FB, why not confront your "friend" for an explanation?

"Happy belated birthday to me too....still growing strong......Drink a toast" THAT IS ALL ABOUT YOU. Why?
"Yeah, I just got one." Got what?
"#2 was in the restroom." Is this the second child? Second wife? What the....
"You know, it takes a strong woman to have children, and you're not." You actually call this person a "friend"? It would be hurtful and offensive to me, but I don't know the history you have with this man. He IS married, and possibly HAS children. Were you two involved and parted company partly because you didn't want and he did want children?????
As far as slamming him on FB, GROW THE **** UP. Why on earth would you want to degrade yourself with a childish outburst where damn near everyone in the whole world will see it???
This is a married man. I don't know how you would feel if women were sending cute messages to YOUR hubby if you had one, but MOST women would NOT like it. Treat others as you would like to be treated. This goes for people you DON'T like as well as those you do.

FYI and BTW: It was not sarcastic, demeaning or rude.
Bizarre. I don't blame you for being upset that it was on his FB page...not approriate. Unfriend him and have him send e-mails.

Likely offended by your "happy birthday to me too" could have registered that you were reminding the sender of a forgotten birthday. Husbands get very offended when the wife forgets theirs, but never offended if they forget the wife's. No he/she wasn't insulting you, he/she was offended so he/she responds with the only thing they know about you which you can react to. Best ignored. If you wish, you can send a smiley note about the"Happy birthday to me" bit.
People will always get offended no matter what you say because they are that way. Example as given here to another, if a man is arrested in Samoa for tax dodging, it would not affect you, but if your neighbor gets hauled over by the tax department for evading tax payments, you would move your accounts into an offshore bank :). Another friend of mine phoned a client with a USD 5000 proposal and said chirpily "The early bird catches the worm", and the client said "are you calling me a worm" and that ended the contract.

To me, this person doesn't sound like anyone I would consider a friend. I have never really understood why people are so attracted to facebook, after having heard so many similar stories. Myself, if I want to talk to someone, I call them, or email them...and I do that out of wanting to keep that connection with them. On facebook, that circle of people you know or know you just grows and grows...often with people you more tolerate than like. Is it really worth it? If that person is a so-called "friend," I think it would be time to unfriend that person!
