Ok I finally sent out my invites - on saturday - and one of my friends kept on asking me about them and im like you'll see them when they get mailed out - so this morning im like did you get the invite yesterday? and shes like yeah i did, i forgot to tell you. & THATS IT - nothing like, oh they're nice or anything --- but not to say anything just kinda pissed me off. - and i really think my invites are nice, they were different --- pic in my album
i know some people are jealous/mad/bitter that you spend x amount of $'s on something that is totally stupid like invites & i think that this has something to do with it
ok im done

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
Nope they are jealous. But when it was there turn you couldn't be more happy. I really can't stand it anymore. Not all people I just know one person but she has always been jealous of me. Nothing I could do though. I have always been nice and no matter what I do she has a comment.

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
im the type that could care less about what kind of invitation i received in the mail id be the person who just said, yeah, i got it im like that with a lot of stuff....its not that im not impressed, or that im jealous, its just some things arent that exciting to me - thats in general and wedding related
ETA: dont get to down about it - im sure your friend is excited - its just silly to expect someone to be as excited as you about your invitation - thats JMO

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
I can tell you right now it is not just you Jealousy brings out the worst in people. I found this out first hand a few times in my life. Someone can be the nicest person in the world but once they get jealous about something they change and there is no hiding it. It ***** but some people just cant stand to see other peoples good fortune.

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
maybe it wasnt intentional and it just went over her head when she said i received it but didnt comment more on it- was it said to you a certain way that offended you then i could understand-
dont stress it you have very nice invites BTW

Maybe she didn't like them and didn't want to say anything. But don't get upset over little things like that.

Yea it can be frustrating but you have to just grin and bear it You are never going to make everyone happy. It makes you wonder though why would somebody ask how something is going if they dont want to hear the answer. Just dont stress it. This is your wedding and you dont want to let these little things get you stressed out at a time where you are supposed to be having fun and enjoying it.

I know its hard, but don't let it upset you. Sometimes people are just A$$HOLES. Your invites were very elegant, I totally would have made a fuss over them, if I were your friend!!

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
don't think much about it.. it maybe that she didn't think about saying how pretty or nice your invites are (which they are.. your invites are really pretty).. maybe she had something on her mind..

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
IMO you're totally right and planning my wedding has made me see how selfish and rude and jealous people really are. Don't pay it any mind.
For the record, ur invites are gorgeous!! I love them.

Ok I finally sent out my invites - on saturday - and one of my friends kept on asking me about them and im like you'll see them when they get mailed out - so this morning im like did you get the invite yesterday? and shes like yeah i did, i forgot to tell you. & THATS IT - nothing like, oh they're nice or anything --- its like LIE TO ME IF YOU HAVE TO but not to say anything just kinda pissed me off. - and i really think my invites are nice, they were different --- pic in my album
i know some people are jealous/mad/bitter that you spend x amount of $'s on something that is totally stupid like invites & i think that this has something to do with it
ok im done
Well I wouldnt want people to LIE to me to make me feel ok with what I am doing. I agree w cresentbride maybe she didnt like them and didnt want to say. I agree that people get jealous too, but remember as long as YOU like it, it is your day, you shouldnt need the approval of other people. Just sit back and enjoy

Re: Are people jealous or is it just me?
i think it depends on whether the person is married or not. before i was engaged i don't remember really paying attention to invitations. maybe she just wanted to make sure she was invited, but didn't really think to notice how nice the invitation was?
but if she is married that she's just being jealous.
either way it doesn't feel good for you, especially after she was asking about it before she got it. sorry, that stinks...and your invitations are very pretty!!

I know i dont want people to lie to me either - I was just made before BUt I kinda know what was on her mind. Yeah she probably didn't like them - plus I know most invites thats shes gotten before were just regular white - do it at home kinda thing -
once again - whatever

Guess I was confused in your OP you said 'Lie to me if you have too'
Dont be concerned with them. Plenty of people will love them!
