how do you? (vent)

A family member is overly involved with our planning. This member is not financially assisting for payment of any part of our wedding nor have we reached out to this person for suggestions or to go to 'events' for us. I am annoyed because one don't tell me this is a 'good price' for something when you aren't even paying and two, I don't want to hear it. I am too angry about the fact that this person and co have backed out of cooperating the costs and honestly I just want to do it all by myself.

how does one 1. deal with this? and 2. potentially tell this person to back off?

sorry I'm annoyed!

haha ur having the opposite problem than what I was venting about for the better part of the day on here

well, nothing to do but to nod ur head and say 'yes' 'of course' 'sounds good' and then keep on doing whatever u want. I think I am going to adopt this into my own life as well
life is so much easier when we ignore the noise.
oh and continue venting to us when the fake smiles get too tiring

ITA - You couldnt have said it better!

ITA with the above poster- for the most part. Def just nod your head and say yep, sounds good and then do whatever you want.

HOWEVER, if it's someone that is permanently going to be attached to you (ie. FILs) then they need to be sat down. Otherwise, this will continue through your marriage and into the rest of your life.

I also agree, sounds perfect, I should start doing it more too
