UGH My aunt is really pissing me off....

Ive been having trouble with my annoying aunt again about the guestlist. She knows my cousins arent allowed to bring their significant others. So now I find out her son isnt coming to the wedding so she says, 'Since he's not coming then she can bring her boyfriend' I said NO BOYFRIENDS. Im over 43 people. Why cant she just understand.

How annoying, its not like you can 'swap' people!!! She sounds like a total busybody. 'NO' means 'NO!!!'

Its crazy. I would never just assume I could bring someone in someone else's place. Thats like me being invited with my FH, and if he couldnt make it, I bring someone else. It just doesnt work that way. I wish they werent making it a bigger deal than what it is.

I didnt know I needed to add 'NO SUBSTITUTIONS' on the fricken RSVPs.

Honestly, you start seeing your family is a different way. You're like 'really, how are not GETTING this?'
She sounds like she doesn't even want to listen. It's like 'stop ignoring me and LISTEN...'
I feel for ya girl. Just stand your ground.

If she gets pissy just say ' i don't want to deal with a free for all. I want to be fair and stick to my rule of no significant others for any of my cousins. By you suggesting we swap people, it implies that you don't respect my decision and I don't appreciate it.'

That will shut her up.....

Im about to stick my foot up her as s. She's drunk half the time anyway so I dont know why it matters to her. Im trying so hard to not confront her cause I swear about to go crazy on her. Some of my family members made this whole process SU CK bigtime. Im sitting here shaking out of anger. Thanks for the advice. If I do speak to her I will tell her what you said.

Aw, I'm so sorry your going through this! I wish people would just understand!!

Re: UGH My aunt is really pissing me off....

i totally understand. My FFIL is basically CALLING his way down his list of 200 friends he wants to invite (we gave him 50 guests on our guestlist). And he will only mail out an invitation if that person said yes over the phone. So basically he is going to fill every one of those 50 spots. If someone says no, they won't get an invitation, and he just moves down the list.

don't you wish you could, though? The guest list issue is a big deal between me and my parents right now also. I feel your pain. Put your foot down now b/c you will have so many more battles to fight soon
