Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

Hey ladies,

I've noticed recently because I've done extensive peeking (as I'll be over there in 3 weeks) that a lot of BHB questions are popping up on the newlywed board. Now, there is nothing WRONG with asking newlyweds their advice, that is why they still come here, but they all tend to still post over here on BHB, and that board is for them, for 'after the wedding'. It's not really necessary to post and repost questions over there, because they see them over here.

This is just a request to not clog the newlywed board with wedding questions, on their behalf. LIW's has been great about giving all of us our 'space' here, and it's just easier on the eyes if the wedding help questions are here, and the what's it like to be a newlywed chat is there. If you're worried about your questions not being answered by a newlywed, just throw it in the title of your thread like 'NEWLYWEDS I'M DYING HELP ME PLEASE!' and I'm sure someone will respond.

Ok I'll bite:

Misty- thanks for that, it was probably necessary and appreciated by the newlyweds.

HOWEVER - I find that in the last month or so, virtually none of my posts are being answered or even viewed on the BHB Board. I'm lucky to get 3 answers these days whereas before I got a lot. I under stand that a lot of the girls on this board are really close friends in real life and like to chat with each other publicly and that's FINE - but I feel like a lot of legitimate requests for information and advice are being ignored (by myself and others) because it's not nearly as interesting as socializing. Or maybe you guys are totally over the planning issues.

What I DO know is that I have 4 months left, I have a lot to get done, I have a lot of questions and I am left dangling a lot. Although I have not re-posted over at the NW board, I have thought about it many times thinking 'Well maybe I'll get an answer over there.'

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

Thrilled - I agree with you!!

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

well i will be a newlwed thrilled & i will answer you the best i can on BHB!

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

I know you will Jenn - you always do and have been a valuable source of info. Thanks!

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

THRILLED!!! WELL SAID!!! I couldn't agree more!

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

Thrilled- I agree w/ you too.
I guess I just don't understand what the difference is if anyone posts on BHB or Newlyweds?
A lot of people do it, b/c not everyone looks on all boards

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

Thrilled I agree with you totally

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

I also agree, although I can see where the Newlys are coming from.
They want to chit chat about life after the wedding.

I know when I am a Newly in 3 more weeks, I solemly promise to keep posting on BHB and give as much help as possible

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

As a newlywed I read the BHB board alot. Please feel free to FM me if you need an answer to a question that has not been answered. I will try and help.

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

lara- you are so cute but the newlyboard has been moving so slow lately I dont think its that clogged but yes, we look here too and FM is good for questions

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

How about a whole new catagory? Newlyweds helping Brides?

Re: Making a plea (on my own) for the Newlywed board

I agree Thrilled. Sometimes you need to post wherever necessary to get helpful responses to wedding related topics.
