You're honest. I ADMIRE that!! Honest people, what a concept

OH NO, I STARTED THAT LIF THREAD!!

I totally wasn't putting LIW down at all. All I said was that it was too much wedding talk for me right now and that I'll slowly ease my way in still I'm still on cloud nine from just getting engaged.

I'm truly sorry it created Drama. It was not my intention at all. Early this afternoon when I saw what people were posting I thought they were just being funny cause many FM'd telling me not to forget LIF to completely come over here.

THis is what I posted
'is so different. It;s like bizzaro world (seinfeld). I've never seen the website till today!!!!

There's just too much talk about weddings over there I'll divide my internet time with
LIF 75% of my computer time
LIW 25 % of my computer time

ETA after I read everyone's posts

Awww You guys are so funny. But don't get me wrong, I love that there's a website to help with my planning, I just don't think I'm up for all the wedding talk just yet. I'll just let it sink in for a few more days and then really start posting there a lot more. So far they all welcomed me warmly. I'l sure I'll make friends there as well. Without LIW< there would be no LIF

Don't worry, won't forget about here. This place is still my 'home'.'


I don't know and dont want to find out which bride you're talking about in earlier posts. I like to stay out of drama. Again I'm so sorry what happened on my thread offended many of you. I'm FM'ing Ron to delete it at this moment. I like LIW. In two days I've met 2 brides and are constantly FMing each other.

I really do not think this post is directed to you, but as us brides know, it is hard to know you trust some opinions on here and then those same people turn around and make fun of you.

If you enjoy both sites that is great. This post is directed to the people that go out of their way to make others feel bad.

Word to your mama!!!

same here...i feel i will have no use for that site whatsoever!

ok guys, Jess posted on LIF, and saw the change in this board.

Trust me, all of us, (well, most of us), on LIF, did the wedding planning already, and we are all married. Now it's your turn. There are quite a few LIF girls that still post here. I dont only because my wedding is done, and I really cant stomach talking about weddings anymore. Enjoy this time. It is so much fun. But whoever said that the ladies on LIF have nothing better to do, you have it all wrong.

Enjoy this special time in your lives, and one day, soon you will be married, and really have no reason to come on to LIW.




And for some of you who said you have no use for LIF, you are missing out on a great board.

what thread are we talking about? mannn i should have chatted during work!

See what you get for being a good worker!!!

One drama thread is on BHB... its the PSA one....

---

LOL! I know I'm sitting here mad at my job for blocking LIW.... I just wanted to say that this is all so stupid. We all had separate lives before we all joined LIW. I know that there are some of you that have been here since what last year or was it 2005 and have formed these really nice and solid friendships like Nina, Nicole and Eliana, and Chrissy and the rest of you that have gotten real close. And there are some of us me included that started using this site with just the intention of getting the needed info to plan a wedding successfully. But this site is much more than that, the 07 girls care about each other in only Brides to be can understand. I've said this before I'm not from LI, and I don't drive and have always lived in Manhattan and fell in love with Leonards, which is what got me on this board. I don't know how I would have gotten all the things I've done without the help of you ladies. Neither can I picture myself planning the rest w.o your help. THIS is getting to long... I just wanted to say that I know I'm not a frequent poster, but I really can't wait to see everyone wedding pics, and all the excitement that we will have in our year. ANYWAY you 07 girls are the best....

Jes5790-Just wanted to clarify, this wasn't about you necesarily. There was a quarrel last night on bhb over LIF/LIW. And I feel as if this has been ongoing for a couple of months. If its not one thing, its another, and its always with the same group of girls.

I started this thread because I don't understand the big cism in between the two websites. They are WEBSITES for the love of God!!!! Did some people say some crass things on your thread on LIF, yup.

But the bigger issue at hand is why they do it. Its one thing to make fun of worrying about petal cones and menus. I understand once the wedding is over, looking back its all a bit neurotic. But thats not the problem. Its okay to make fun of it to an extent. The problem is there are a certain few people that go way the heck out of their way to dramatacize and talk rudely about what is done over here or people over here. That is the problem. Its unncecessary and very petty.

I mean seriously....when was the last time you saw a thread on LIW that made of of LIF and that 'one poster who posts a million pictures of every angle of their backyard'. You don't. Because its not nice and its someone elses happiness.

In closing, Jess this was not a personal thing on you. This is just something that has been going on for awhile and some of us are boggled by it. So its not you, if anything, the thread on bhb last night was much worse.

Lots of peoples feelings get hurt. Thats all. And its all nonsense to me. I guess we need to go back to elementary school. If you have nothing nice to say, then keep your cake hole shut!!!!! Or in this case, keep your fingers off the keyboard.

Seriously, if some of these girls would put as much energy into fundraising for a good cause, or some philanthropy, as they do chasing drama or making it, .......We just might be a happier world....and maybe Janet's house could be done already........... which brings me to a thought...........

Ditto on that one. Most would not have even had the decency to do that.

I just got a chance to read the thread.. I agree it was nice of Jess to come on here and make nice.. I don't see why there is so much anger and hostility with the girls sometimes.. We are all a sister hood sharing the same dream and goal.. and we all have umcoming events to prepare for, our weddings, the arrival of Baby Blake!!!

I am choking on the peace pipe right now, but I am still puffing for my sistas!!!

Oh I know I didn't say anything mean or anything, but I still felt bad that what ended up happening on my thread hurt many of you guys!!!! Not into offending or creating drama at all.

Thank you Nina for making me feel welcome and clarifying..

Aside from bring a LIF girl ,I also wanna be a LIW 07 girl.

Thanks again Nina. And may I say, you're a very eloquent speaker.

A big part of the problem here is that many of the LIWers that don't frequent LIF are taking things out of context. That board has been around for over a year, and there have always been running conversations. Someone who occasionally lurks, or takes a peek when there's drama is obviously not going to understand it.

Most of those ladies have been there, done that. They know what matters, and what doesn't, and honestly, its funny!

Its not even about lurking Nicole....

Need I remind you about the thread last night on BHB....yes....it went it the wrong direction...smara was just asking a question..........but it just brewed up a whole load of problems.

It was an LIF/LIW thing on LIW...I didn't have to lurk to witness that one.....if my mind does not escape me....you posted on it as well.

It just gets old Nicole...real old.

Does that give you the right to lie on people and state that you must be fake to be on the site?

I am not trying to argue with you Shorty but I am trying to understand.

Don't waste your time bickering with them, you gals are better than that.
It becomes a big waste of time and energy, its just not worth it!
