Ok, I'll give it a try, but the guys at work are look at me funny. But it's not like they don't already think I'm strange.

I'd think you'd be used to the funny looks from the guys at work by now, then! Isn't that the new normal?

I am pretty much used to it, but I still want them to think I'm an "outie" not an "innie".

So, depends on how you define "woman issues," now, doesn't it? Could be a woman you know went wacko and she (and her knife) were an issue for you...

Just sayin'

Joatsaint: There ya go! That oughta do it.

Back to the more serious original topic: BigChange - just keep reminding yourself that just because someone is nosy enough to ask doesn't mean you have to tell anything you don't want to. I think a lot of the answers that have been provided are good ideas. I generally don't recommend lying, as you then have to remember the lie or risk forgetting when someone mentions it. However, there's no issue at all with simply not giving all the info, or any at all if you choose not to.

Exploratory surgery andceverything is fine should do the trick and really isn' t ying.

Lol, I love it! Thanks for the tip.
