It looks like we got a DD.

I guess the girl who refused to kennel her dog and expected her ILs to be unpaid wedding vendors didn't like hearing that the ILs weren't the problem.

Re: It looks like we got a DD.

  • I"m shocked, SHOCKED!  I tell ya!

    Yeah, I think she wants to keep her head in the sand. 

    And I really would love to know how it all went down w/ them helping decorate.  The more she talked, the more I started wondering how much she might be contributing to the problem.

  • I think she's contributing a lot.  Expecting people to host her dog every time they invite her to visit?  What a nut.  You'd think that no one in the history of dog ownership had ever kenneled a terrier before.

    I just have no energy to respond to these posts anymore. What's the point - the majority of the time they get DD'ed.

    Hrrrmph.

  • That wasnt' the problem at all I just thought people were getting a little rude.  I was looking for some help and advice.  I recognize I'm not perfect.  But sometimes you catch more flies with honey than vinegar.  I thought people were pretty mean rather than being supportive and helpful.  I thougth that this was women coming together to help each other and that's not what this board is for.

  • I distinctly said that I didn't blame ppl for not wanting MY dog in THEIR house.  I guess you didn't read very closely.

    Missed it, damn it.

    You didn't miss much. No real drama or "You don't know me." Just a lady married to a tool that wasn't ready to admit that he reason she didn't want to have kids was because her husband suck, not because her in-laws are bad to her. And her examples kinda sucked. One was her in-laws not helping or recruiting help to decorate for her wedding, which I don't get. If it was at her family's property or something I could see it, but just because they happen to live four miles from your wedding venue does not mean they should become your workers.

    Her other one was that they have a really fragile little dog that can't survive being in a kennel or left alone for five hours so the little bugger needs to be around them at all times and his family does allow dogs at their homes. I didn't get that either because we have a little fragile dog that I worry about if she is left alone for six hours and family that doesn't allow pets, but that doesn't hinder our family visits. If she was really that worried she would find a small dog boarder that doesn't have kennels and such.

    I honestly thought that East Coast Bride was pretty damn nice to you. She explained that we get jaded by bad format and examples which lead us to think it's you and not them, and it is very true. I have done it more than a few times with problems I come to for advice on this site. But next time you want support i.e. puppies and unicorns pooping rainbows, go to your friends that are on your side, and will blindly believe you beyond all doubt. But when you want honest opinions or advice, come here because that is what people will give you, even if it hurts.

    I wasn't rude.

    And I gave you some help and advice.

    And you deleted it.

    How is that comig together to help each other - at all? You think you are the only woman to be in this situation? You think that no one else would benefit from reading your post and replies? No one esle would see themselves in your situation and gain some insight from the good and bad relpies?

    I guess not. Because you deleted the whole thing.

    In a huff and and tantrum.

    Goodie you.
