TOUCHY SUBJECT...

ok ladies ive been wanting to post this for quite sometime to vent...lets just say there is a certain someone in my life who has been raining on my parade..
1. when i first told this someone about how i booked my rh..they didn't seem interested.

2. then i told them about my favors and they said how "it's an alright gift (as if any favor is really wonderful), and how i spent too much money on it and that i should spend it on something else"

3. i say how i want to have brown bm dresses with pink flowers and they are like,,,"yea but its may" im like so what..ppl wear black during summer weddings why cant i do brown and they r like "well it's ur wedding, i wouldnt do it but ill wear it if i have to"

4. i talk about a photo/video package and they are like "well it sounds too good to be true just make sure u have it written in the contract"

do you think this is just harsh criticism from someone who really cares about me? has anyone experienced this with someone close??

Re: TOUCHY SUBJECT...

I have 2 people who always have something to say like that and I have either taken it one of two ways...they are just trying to help me but dont know how to express themself without being hurtful so I have said...do you think we could discuss this without you making me feel under attack...or I realized that this person is just abrassive like that and I am attempting to learn to live with it. But ooooooo is it really hard. Since confronting this other person would just be more effort then its worth cuz it would start a whole new bunch of drama.

Re: TOUCHY SUBJECT...

I think it depends on who it is and what the relationship is. I am very close with my mother and she always offers critiques but its bc she has my best interest at heart and wants to make sure I am not getting scammed. On the other hand, there are people out there who will be jealous and always wants to put their two cents in.

Re: TOUCHY SUBJECT...

def. jealously! Its your day don't let anyone tell you what to do or how to do it. I had someone like that told them they are no longer involved in my wedding. It got to me so much and you can't let it ruin your excitment! So I eliminated the problem

Some people are just negative! Is this person normally like this or is it just with your wedding?

Re: TOUCHY SUBJECT...

Two people in my family are like this. So, I sat them down and said the following....

"My wedding is very special to me. You are not going to agree with all my decisions, but I need you to be supportive. If you are going to say something negative, think about how it might affect me before you say it. This is a very emotional time and I do not want negativity involved. If you can do this, then I will gladly share all my wedding plans with you. If you cannot, then I won't talk about the wedding at all."

After a few questions on their part, they agreed not to be negative about it. And so far they have kept their word.
