[DisneyBunny15]

Welcome DisneyBunny! I too am sorry you are having a rough time.

First, I'm very sorry about your Dad. I hope everything turns out okay. One of my best friends was recently diagnosed with terminal breast cancer, so I can empathize completely. It really takes on toll on you emotionally and physically to watch someone go through the fight of their life like that. It also tends to put things in perspective. Maybe that is why you are losing patience for the whole stressed out bride situation. If only seating arrangements were life's biggest problems, right?

Second, I totally agree with Marshay. You need to *talk* to her face to face. People say things in e-mails that they would never say to someone's face. People also tend to project emotions onto written words that perhaps the writer did not intend. I've seen a few friendships dissolve completely because what was a small issue grew into something a lot bigger because my friends tried to resolve something through e-mail. I know it can be uncomfortable to have those face to face conversations, especially if you dislike conflict as much as I do, but in the long run it's the best way to go.

Good luck with it. I hope you find a way to talk it out and then are able to enjoy the wedding of your dearest friend.

And you are always welcome here.

Yes - I think if nothing else was wrong in life, for me, I'd be totally fine hearing about seating arrangements and aisle runners - youre right, I should definitely chat in person, but I think I will write her back a little email before accepting her invite

First of all ... welcome to the thread...sorry, your first post here is on a bad day ... but sometimes just writing out the situation and how you feel (with or without posting) is very cathartic!

My advice -- get on the phone with Anna or arrange to talk to her in person tomorrow. The circumstances you both have been going through warrant that you deal with this in person -- do not send email.

She's your friend...talk to her as a friend. Friends forgive each other and love each other and do crazy things both good and bad ... but friends are there for friends and you have to be honest with one another.

Good luck!

This is very great advice! I hope you don't mind, but I used some of your words in a reply email to her - "friends are there for friends"

Don't be nervous, we don't bite, well not that hard anyway, lol.

I'm sorry to hear about all what you are going through. I think the stress of your dad's cancer and worrying about him and how it is affecting your Mom along with the wedding stuff you are planning and losing a friend and boyfriend is getting to you. First I would say you now have a great boyfriend who apparently is there for you, even though he doesn't quite understand the wedding stuff and get how it affects you, is good. Use him to lean on, he may not understand why it is affecting you this way but he is there for you so let him take your mind off things, let him be your happy place and put that stuff out of your mind for a little while when you are with him, just relax and enjoy having someone care for you and about you! Also since you have this boyfriend now, let the other stuff go, it's over and done, you can't go back and change it and I know it hurt you that your best friend and boyfriend betrayed you but just think of it this way.....they deserve each other, don't give them enough importance in your life to let it upset you. Know that you are better off without them, treat them like a casual acquaintance and let the rest of it go. Don't let them spoil this wedding for you.

As for "bridezilla" you said she wrote you a heartfelt letter and she made a lot of good points and you now feel terrible. Instead of letting yourself get even more upset by feeling bad, write her a nice long letter back, or call her, tell her you see her points and you are sorry that you got so upset but you have a lot on your plate as well and you did your best to make her bachlorette party the best ever and it hurt your feelings when she brushed it off. I'm sure she will see your good points as well and you two can get past all that. Weddings are a wonderful thing but leading up to them can be very stressful and emotional, don't let any of that ruin your friendship. The wedding will be over, the stress will be gone and let the hurts go away and just enjoy your friendship. Life is too short to hold a grudge, take my word for it, I am the senior member of this group of DIS buds and I've had a lot of experience over the years and I have come to realize what is important in life and what is just not worth ruining friendships or getting upset over.

So my advice is to know you did the best you could with the party for your bridezilla and just enjoy the fun. Lean on your new boyfriend and put the other boyfriend and ex bf behind you, they aren't worth the time you waste being upset with them, be there for your Dad and your Mom and let your boyfriend help you through a very emotional time. Finally enjoy the wedding, enjoy your life and don't sweat the small stuff!

This is all really great advice - I really wish I could just let them go (my ex and my ex friend) and trusttttt me it has nothing to do with having feelings for him - she just shocked and hurt me so much that its so hard to get over.. but youre right - I shouldnt let this into my life.

Nice to meet you by the way

Nice to see another Jerseyan here..is that even a word

I am Kelly, a lot of people call me Sharky. I am from South Jersey. Beem Married 1o years and have a 5 year old son. I work part time at a bank

Hi Jersey Girl, Sharky, its nice to meet you, I'm Corrine. I am 26 years old, full time teacher's assistant with 5 amazing students with autism, a full time student at MSU for my teaching cert in K-5 & Special Ed., never been married (which might be why I don't understand this wedding drama business) and I have a trip planned in Aug. to Disney (taking my bf for his first time) and I couldn't be more excited!

Sorry, I'm one of those guys who dont understand all that wedding stuff.....it's just not that important to us!!!! IMO, Your focus should be on your dad......nothing is more important than family.......nothing.......in 20 years you will know what I mean.......

IMO opinion most woman put way too much into the wedding ceremony and not enough in to the marriage.......

Explain your stress level to your friend ......apologize, she will probably apologize too.......remember her stress level is high too, her wedding day is the most important thing in her life right now.......(a mistake in my opinion). Go out for a long lunch with no other distractions......it will work out!!!!

Watch the movie with Anna about the girl who hires the male escort to go to her sisters wedding in England...very funny chick flick!!!! Her ex is at the wedding also!!

Come on ladies you know what one I'm talking about.....???

Welcome to this thread.......

UJ
aka Uncle John

A guys perspective for what its worth

Ok - UJ, I have to say, I really appreciate the guys perspective! And actually, the things you say, coincide with the same things my bf says! And I'm glad to tell you, I just turned my phone on and had a message from my bf - telling me he understands why I snapped AND a message from Anna, asking me to meet her for drinks on Thursday, but if possible to talk sooner.

Oh......that explains a lot of your problems......HA.....

hahaha! I can def. take heat Detroit fan! I have to say, your team is great and Id actually prefer Detroit win the cup - the Devs took a big hit in game 7 against Carolina - it sucked...I was there. ahhhh.



Again, thanks everyoneeeee for welcoming me. You all have helped me to feel a lot better! I really appreciate that! I'm glad to be part of the circle.

 

[lovebuzzandwoody]

I think you would be perfect as Uncle Buck, LMAO I loved Uncle Buck, he was awesome! That was a great movie, one of my favorites.

Yes, UJ is the epitome of Uncle Buck. Trust me.


Did we scare Disneybunny off? Maybe we hit her with too much advice?

 

[Trentmom]

How excting to be taking your BF for his first trip

where are you staying? I think it was in your siggie, but I forget now

Did you make any adrs?

You will find out, that I am nosey one of the bunch and am the question girl

slap me if I ask too many questions

 

[lovebuzzandwoody]

I would make some of my own posters and bring them with me.

Slap them up on tress all around the ex house..heck put some on stakes and put them in her lawn..sure she would love that

Scratch what I said!!! Take Sharky's advice!!!



Corrine ~ MSU as in Michigan State?!?! I am an alum! But I am old so that was a long time ago... maybe before you were born. 1990.

I work as a substitute teacher right now but have been permanent subbing in an AU1 class since mid-October as a TA. They are amazing, aren't they?

[Disneymommom]

As long as free counseling is being offered, here is my problem:

My 18 year old daughter will be graduating from HS Sunday. She has stayed 1 night at my house in the last 2 1/2 years. She prefers her mothers house w/no rules.

I spoke to my ex in Dec. about her open house, told her i would help out with it.....whatever they wanted to do, just let me know.......spoke with her again in March, same thing....I paid 1/2 for invites, announce., cap & gown etc.

Well, come to find out they are having an open house with out me or anyone from my family......I spoke to my daughter, she didnt have anything to say....Spoke to my ex, told me if I wanted to invite my family I needed to pay her $1500 for my half.......Of course I had no say in "my half" just fork out the cash........this is all 2 weeks before the open house........I talked to my daughter about having a family open house at our house......my daughter said she didnt want one......that really hurt........tears me up....then she told me her and her mom made poster boards of photos of her growing up, she told me they dont have a single photo of me in it........that really hurt.......

You can only imagine the words I would like to use here to describe my ex........*$%&*#@*(&*%$ yep all those!!
My daughter has told me and DW to come to the open house.......
My question is: Should I go???.......I will be honest I am thinking about skipping it......The posters would crush me, I dont get along real well with my ex family....we wouldnt argue or anthing like that.....we just dont care for each other.........
MY DD didnt even ask for photos from all the Disney trips we have been on together......

BTW,
She is leaving for Phoenix AZ in 2 weeks to live with her grandparents and go to a Comm. college there....I just bought her a laptop to take to school.......

Thanks in advance......

UJ is really hurting over this one........

UJ, it breaks my heart that you are hurting so bad. You are such a cool guy, lots of fun and always happy go lucky so I know this is really killing you. I truly do not understand how Ex's can be so mean and the worst thing I have understanding is how they can use their children as pawn's to hurt each other. That's just down right child abuse in my book. Let's face it, without you, there would be no daughter for her. Whether she likes it or not, you are her dad and you always will be. You deserve a place in all of these functions.

I get really PO'd at things like this so I am not sure my advice would be the best but I thiynk I would make up my own poster from pictures of our Disney Trips and things that I had and I would take that with me and go to the party and put the poster out for all to see that you are and have been an involved Dad. You offered to help with the party, she just chose not to tell you about it or ask you for help until it was too late and she had planned it and then says you owe her $1500 to come! That's insane! What a *%#@*^# she is!!!! My DH's ex is like that too and she turned his girls against him so I know where you are coming from. I do not understand why your daughter said come yet she told you things that would hurt your feelings. I am sure that is her mother doing that. I think you should see how your wife feels about going, if she will be comfortable or not, then make a decision.If you decide to go, just make an appearance, give her a gift and then be very gracious and quietly leave then. I would do what Love suggested, try to take her out to dinner, and if she accepts, I would then just enjoy my quality time with her and your DW and try to just keep in mind that its her mother's influence, not that she doesn't love you.

You know you were and are a good father, you have given her a laptop, you've taken her to disney, you've offered to help with the party and you paid for half of the other graduation expenses, you've done everything right, it is not you, its the ex and her influence.

She will grow up and mature one day and realize what she's missing by not spending more time with you and will make amends. I know it's hard to be on your end of this and I feel so bad but be the bigger person and just go if you decide and be gracious and nice and then leave quietly.

Dont listen to me by saying to make your own poster and take it with you, lol, I get angry sometimes and want to do stuff like that but most likely would not actually do it!
'
Just remember we all love you!

 

[Disneymommom]

I like it. Very cute



WOW


I would be furius at your ex

Now try not to get mad at your daughter....this is all your ex's influence.


I would go.....I am sure your dauaghter wants you there..she is just going along with whatever your ex says....

I understand how hurt you must be, though..so sorryr


I would make some of my own posters and bring them with me.

Slap them up on tress all around the ex house..heck put some on stakes and put them in her lawn..sure she would love that


Seriously

OMG You are your mother's daughter, lol. I didn't see your post till now after I finally finished my long reply to UJ while also on Facebook. I see you and I think exactly alike, lol, I said the same thing about the poster, LOL! You go girl!

I'm also going with my parents and brother in early August and staying at Saratoga Springs - I love my family

[lovebuzzandwoody]

Okay, so you were 7 when I graduated from college.... I was pretty close.

My mom and i stayed in Caribbean Beach for a mother daughter trip I think in 94...we had a blast

I saw in your signature you stayed at POR in 98

My husband and I honeymooned there in 98 as well, when it was known at Dixie Landings.

Love that resort.. what month did you go in? We were there December

Yes - I think if nothing else was wrong in life, for me, I'd be totally fine hearing about seating arrangements and aisle runners - youre right, I should definitely chat in person, but I think I will write her back a little email before accepting her invite

Glad we didn't overwhelm you with all of our advice and am glad you came back. We are a great group of people here and are always willing to help and also willing to ask for help when we need it.

Great you are taking your BF for his first Disney trip ever. It's so exciting to take someone for their first visit as you get so much enjoyment out of their amazement and fun there.

Though it says Louisiana or Champions Gate, FL, not sure where it says I am from right now, we move around so much, lol, due to my husband (he's a fugitive and we are always one step away from the law....just kidding!) I am originally a Jersey girl. I am Sharky's (Trentmom) real mom in real life! We have a lot of fun here and on FB and talk and chat back and forth and really keep a good close relationship! We are from south Jersey and are in Flyers territory, lol.

I think its a good sign that Anna wants to get together to talk, I am sure she is feeling bad about this tension between you as well. Good friends are hard to come by and neither of you want to lose each other. I've had a few rocky times through the years with good friends but we've always managed to get past that, you will too!

Make sure you keep coming back and let us know how things go with Anna! We like to know everything, we're all very nosey as well as interested!

UJ is really hurting over this one........

Wow, I'm really sorry UJ - that is really sad and I can't imagine how hard it is to have to hear your DD telling you about the poster - I would go, just to show the effort. Actions speak louder than words - and I wouldn't spend a lot on a gift, but def. get something VERY thoughtful.. even if you made your own collage of you and her when she was growing up (Disney pics and all). Even though I don't speak to my "real Dad," (I live w my step dad for 24 years now), I think that would be the most special thing he could do to show how much he cared..

Its nice to meet you as well! I love any hockey fan, I don't mind what team, even tho Devs are my fav! But now that I know people who like the flyers, I can route for them, whenever they're not playing the Devs

I will definitely keep you posted on what happens with Anna - Her bachelorette party is in 2 weeks and her wedding is in 4 (June 26th) - I will be happy to make it to those dates with all your help and great advice! Please keep me updated with happenings in your life as well!

Love that resort.. what month did you go in? We were there December

Yup!! Dixie Landings!! I've always wanted to go to Disney in any other month besides July or August - but with school and work I've never been able to.. so in 98, I was there during the summer - but I'm hoping my mom and I can do a Christmas trip soon It just looks amazing there in Dec.

 

[Leger13]

So....I wrecked my car this morning!

We had a pallet of shingles sitting in the driveway to the left behind me, and I stupidly hit them while backing out. Well, I tapped them, and proceeded to pull back up so I could back out straight. Well...when I did that, it apparently caught on the bumper and ripped the whole dang thing off!!! My bumper is currently hanging off my car. And there's scraped on the part that's over the left rear tire. It royally sucks.

I called Mike and he left work to come to my rescue. Since today is the 1st day of the month, hence our busiest day (and no one is ever allowed to schedule time off on 1st workday), he dropped me off at work and went back to work himself. I'll have to deal with the damages tomorrow. And I also have a dentist appt tomorrow afternoon. So I will be using up some vacation time. Ugh. What a Monday!

You told me about this already but sorry to hear about it again....blah! Did you guys find a decent place to repair your car last night?

I know, I know, lol, no Best Buy. By the way did you know that Sears now charges restocking fees when you take something back? this seems to be the new thing for all the stores and it sucks!

I still got that cough but got some new medicine, Coriciden for Chest Congestion that is safe for people with high blood pressure! We'll see how that works!

I didn't know that about the re-stocking fees. That is just absurd and makes me glad I do not shop at Sears for anything any more.
