[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2407222, member: 451727"] Hi there, I know some of the replies may seem a little harsh but I have to agree...in a gentle way. There is nothing worse than making it clear to someone you are not interested, but they keep going on. With regards to a Libre, they are not for everyone. Some people know themselves and they [I]know [/I]that if they are attached to a device that 'controls' them 24/7 it can end up having a very negative affect. You may think of it as avoidance but if your friend is happy with her current method of managing her diabetes, then that's her choice. At least she's not ignoring it entirely. Some people love knowing every second of the day what their levels are like, but others may see a reading of 7 or 8 or 6 or 10 and feel instantly depressed or a failure, they may feel like giving up unless they see a level of 4 for example. It is not nonsense and that description is a horrible one to level at her. We are all different, you've made your point so I would say leave it there or she may start avoiding you. [/QUOTE]
