  • Baby Jesus told me that he hates you because you got married in the month we are supposed to be celebrating his birthday.

    Your question was retorical and sarcastic but I'll answer it anyways.

    If someone close to me were to get married in the month of Dec., yes I would be upset. I won't lie about it. I don't know how else to answer this. 

     

    I'm having a baby in December. I'm really really sorry.

    My son was born in December of last year.  No one else on this site is allowed to have a child in December anymore!

    My sister, who was born December 1970, wants you all to know that December is her month, and the only reason why anyone has been born in December since then is through her gracious and merciful heart. 

    I will forward her your thanks.

    I won't attend bc I wouldn't feel "right" being there. Its something of a bad omen when you show your face where its not needed, I guess is how I feel about it. And, yes, I am upset that out of all the months in the freakin yr, that he's chosen to get married in Dec., like his twin brother.  

    Wait. What? You're saying you shouldn't go because it will be bad luck because they didn't make you feel needed? I think my head's gonna explode.

    After 22 cycles and 4 failed IUIs, Serafina joined our family through IVF/ICSI, born 8.28.12
    Surprise! The Sequel is due 12.8.14!

  • imageFaithinme09:

    My H and I married in Dec. of last yr. while my BIL was deployed. He was the only one of my H family to know that we were getting married. Both are twins and in the Marines. It drives me insane that they do the same things! We got word that my BIL is planning on getting married NEXT MONTH. Am I outta line to be really angry at this?

    Also, it angers me bc my BIL ruined our surprise to his family. He called the MIL and told her and she then told the grandparents. My H spoke to my mother about this first, so we were in the clear and preparing things. My BIL made himself to be innocent when we spoke about it, claiming that "it wasn't a big deal" and that I'm over reacting.

    Seeing as WE got married in that month first. I feel that just bc they are twins does not mean that they MUST to do everything the same!

    I've decided that I will not be attending bc I wouldn't feel comfortable. In my opinion, this is the best choice.

    Although, my H is the bestman and my MIL, second BIL and my H grandparents will be attending. I have a feeling that if I don't show, they will hate me. Lol. I could care less. It shouldn't be a big deal if I don't show, its their wedding!    

    Feedback would be nice. Thank you ladies.

    Note: I am not jealous. I've asked myself many times and I can clearly be happy for him and his fiance. They are having a gorgeous wedding, way better than mine (bc I'm simple) and I wish them the best of luck, I honestly do.

     

    Honey, you are so far out of line that you probably can't even see the line anymore.

    Just how old are you?

  • You're absolutely being ridiculous. He should be pissed at you for getting married while he was deployed. You can't lay claim to the entire friggin month because YOU got married one day in Decemeber a year ago.  Stop acting like a spoiled brat and go to the wedding. Damn right they will hate you if you don't go.
  • Man you sound like an immature spoiled ass baby skank

    soooooooo......anyone want to take bets on her H flying out to the wedding and never returning? it would be 150% justified.

    OP: you're stomping your feet like a little kid. i would understand if they had chosen the same date. if that isn't the case, then all you're really doing is throwing a temper tantrum like a 2 yr old. and i venture to guess that a 2 yr old would throw less of a tantrum than you would.

    i can't even fathom refusing to attend a wedding simply because the couple chose the same month. you are being incredibly immature. the family has every right to cease all contact with you, should you decide not to attend.

    newsflash: the world doesn't revolve around you.

    Thanks to our wonderful RE our family is complete!

  • Without reading all the other poster's comments - yes, you are out of line.  Don't look at it as BIL is "stealing" your month - try thinking of it as something you can bond over.

    My BFF is getting married the day after my 5 yr. anniversary, and I will be attending her rehearsal on the day of my anniversary.  Guess what?  I'm thrilled about it - because that's what friends do.  I could not be happier that we can (nearly) share our anniversaries. 

    I don't understand how you've come to the conclusion that you won't attend simply because they chose to be married in the same month.  Maybe because it could be more affordable for them on such short notice.  Take your head out of your arse.  You owe your DH and BIL an apology for even thinking like this.

  • My favorite part is:  "I'm really not jealous that they're having a better wedding than mine...I'm just simple.  Yeah.  That's it."
  • Wait until OP finds out that that the bride is wearing the same gown as her and having the bms in the same colors!!

    OP you honestly are a complete asswipe!

    That's nothing short of idiotic.

  • You're either crazy out of line... or a very boring troll.

    You can come up with something better than this.

  • I won't attend bc I wouldn't feel "right" being there. Its something of a bad omen when you show your face where its not needed, I guess is how I feel about it.

    Call me crazy, but I think it's probably a worse omen to skip your husband's twin brother's wedding because they're getting married the same month as you did.       Yeah sure, everyone has the right to their opinions and their reasons for not attending a wedding.    But be prepared for this to cause irreversible damage to your marriage.   Not your relationship with your ILs, because that's not even a factor....it'll be toast after this.   But now your husband will know that you refused to go to this wedding for a stupid reason I guarantee he doesn't understand.   

    Maybe there will be some hot single bridesmaid or something for your husband to dance with, I suppose. 

    And no worries about your next marriage.   You've got 11 more husbands to go before you run out of months. 

  • imagecasmgn:

    You are insane. Who skips a wedding because someone gets married in the same month that they did?

    Twins usually have a very close bond, much different than normal siblings. If you keep this up, I would not be surprised if your marriage ends fairly soon.

    My thoughts exactly. 

  • I'm confused about why it's acceptable for her BIL to get married at all.  Getting married was their thing.

  • Your BIL sounds like a real piece of work. I bet he's also the younger twin, right? He just HAS to copy everything about your H!!!

    Normally a lurker, but this is ridiculous. By your logic, I should be super pissed at my BIL for getting married in August. And they not only got married in August, they eloped, and got married the day after our 5 year anniversary. Guess I shouldn't be talking to them anymore. 

  • Sorry but you don't own the month of December for weddings in your family. You don't know why they might be selecting next month to get married. It probably has nothing to do with you. For you to not go to the wedding is extremely immature.

  • imageNewspaper Articles:

    My anniversary is Dec. 7th and now I'm upset that you chose to get married the same month as me.

    I'd like to share a story with you:  I was planning my wedding in 2002.  We were at DH's (then fiance) friend's house.  The wife asked questions about the wedding.  When I told her about my plans, I found out we had some similarities: she was married in December and we had similar wedding colors. 

    Do you know this dumb cow pouted and said that I was COPYING off of her?  She sounded as lame as you do.  It was all coincidental and had nothing to do with her. 

    Your wedding is over, December is not your month or mine for that matter.  You're acting like a spoiled bratty child.

     

     

    How dare you get married on MY birthday!!!!!!

  • i dont think you are out of line, i think you are WAY OUT OF LINE.

    why so petty??? are you THAT insecure? you should grow up, seriously. go to the wedding and stop being a sour puss! 

    "They are having a gorgeous wedding, way better than mine (bc I'm simple)" you are definitely jealous. you admit that their wedding will be better than yours, you wouldn't say this if you were not jealous.  

    they are twins, they do everything the same, get over it. you dont sound very perfect either. 

  • My sister got married exactly one year after I did, on the exact same day.

    I was her bridesmaid. It meant spending quite a bit of time apart from my husband on the day of our frist anniversary.

    It turned out to be a really nice way to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We got to do all the "wedding" fun again, with great food, wine and dancing, surrounded by our family. i asked my sister if we oculd sit together during the reception. she sat Dh at the wedding table and made a toast to us during her speech.

    So i could have been a drama queen about it being MY day. But I wasn't, and it didn't matter in the slightest and now we'll always have this cool thing of having the same wedding anniversary.
