Have you seen the stuff that gets written about them in mags and on web sites? \"She\'s totally useless, won\'t do balah blah blah\" - \"Oh, thats because she\'s jealous of you.\" :?: :?: :?: . Just seen a bloody corker on another site and had to sit on my hands to stop myself typing something VERY rude back.
Am I the only person that was honoured that my choice of bridesmaid said yes? And am happy to do anything to accomadate her to make her feel special and as comfy as possible on the day? I thought that was common courtesy - I suppose I was wrong. :no:
I completely agree I was reading one B2B\'s rantings the other day because her MOH is pregnant (exactly the same position as me) she was calling her selfish self obsessed, saying she had done it on perpose because ....yes you\'ve guessed it she\'s jealous!!!!
I must say tho that I didn\'t sit on my hands tho!!:mad: and I let her have it with both barrels!!
and another thing is that some people seem to put so much of the work load on to them as well my MOH works and even tho we talk everyday we only see each other one afternoon a week, I wouldn\'t dream of putting so much pressure on her
and like you Bev I\'m just so happy to have her be such a special part of my big day.
I also think that the type of brides who behave this way are just spoilt little brats who seem to think that the world revolves around them and there wedding day and they also seem to care more about the wedding than they do the marrage!
phew:lol: THAT FELT GOOD!!!
My BM has came with me pretty much everytime ive been shopping for various things, but really doesnt say too much about the rest. She doesnt really ask about any plans i have made and never calls to find out how things are going.....But thats just her way. I know she cares, but she is not not the type to be continuously fussing around. That and the fact that i dont really think she is too sure what she should do. i just accept her for the way she is, yeah it would be nice if she called now and again to see how things were going but i love her for who she is and wouldnt change her. If i had wanted someone different, id have asked someone else. I really dont see the point in getting so stressed about the whole thing...
Who\'s wedding is it anyway? :?:
btw have u notiiced how half of the ppl doing all the moaning arent even paying for half of it? We could all have time to moan about more trivial things like that if Daddy was handing us 10k to pay for it:mad: Ive got more important things to worry about!
Hey guys! I have to agree with you to a certain extent. I am having five bridesmaids, only 4 of them wear girlie clothes at all and one of them is a goth! All of them are very excited about being bridesmaids.
My sister is being my cheif bridesmaid and she found it quite hard when I first got engaged as she felt I was being railroaded into having a big family wedding. I know she wasn\'t jealous as it so not what she would want , in fact that was the problem but we talked about it and she is now really enjoying it. I made her see that the big wedding is what I want as much as every one else.She even came with me to Berketex and had a 2 hour trying on session.
Keep up the good threads, Jess
I was a BM for someone last April. I wanted to do my part properly and to help as much as I could and get involved etc.
But she who shall not be named pretty much wanted me to shut up and just look pretty on the day.
The night before, she made me stay at her house which I thought might be a lot of fun (in spite of having to be kept apart from my Ben (sob!)). She just completely ignored me all night and I spent all the time talking to her mum (who is ace!).
The worst thing is, I felt obliged to ask her to be mine. I know, I know - i shouldn\'t have done it, but I really felt pressurised to do so.
Anyhow, to be fair to her, she\'s doing a good job of helping me out, and I am really grateful for that.
Hmmm... can be tricky. I have three very close friends, one of whom I was sure wouldn\'t be interested in the slightest in being a BM. I asked her, because I\'d asked the others and couldn\'t not if you see what I mean, and to my surprise (and delight) she said she would love to be. Since then, nothing. No phone calls, no interest, just as I thought. I can\'t help being a bit peeved, to be honest. BUT, as you say, she is my mate, I expected this to happen, I still like her loads and won\'t let it get to me, but I\'m only human!
My three confirmed bridesmaids are my oldest friend, who has said nothing about since I asked and has told me I won\'t be a bridesmaid at her wedding, my sister, whose fiance is now in jail for three years for fighting and i feel bad for her, and my cheif bridesmaid is an ex girlfriend (I\'m bi) who I haven\'t seen or talked to since my engagement party! i think they\'ve all forgotten...:(
I feel so sorry for alot of peoples bridesmaids
