Would you be upset? Poll

Original post by SoontobeMrsH

This morning we found out one of FH's Best Men, got engaged last night

They are getting married in February, as in 6 weeks No she is not preggo. I'm b/c I think it's so Rude to get married in Feb. before our June wedding that we've been planning for years.

I know that I shouldn't be mad, but I'm curious to see..

Re: Would you be upset? Poll

I wouldnt be mad but stuff like this gets under my skin ... its more annoying than anything else especially when its someone very young (immature) doesnt know about life, dont have carreers and etc and they are jumping into a marriage. But we all had the choice to engaged and get married right away (whether it be just a ceremony or the whole shabang)

ETA: there are so many people who get married in that short of a time. When i worked in cedarhurst - so many of our orthodox patients would meet a person, 2 weeks later get engaged, and a month later would be the wedding. to top it off most of the time they were really young had huge @ss rocks on their fingers and these would not be small weddings.. we are talking 300 people or more. how they did it in 1 months time - i will never know! Everyone is different - dont let this get you mad!

I guess I used the wrong word, I was annoyed, not mad I'm now over it, and of course I am happy for them. I've even offered an & all help they need, including DIY projects. I was annoyed since they were going to have their wedding before ours, and have some of the special extras, we've planned to be 'different'. As some of you know we're having a weekend of celebration, and we were the 1st of our friends to plan a wedding like that... I stole the idea from 'My Best Friends Wedding' tho, so I know I don't own the concept. I was annoyed since we've been planning and sharing our ideas and from FH's description of the wedding they are planning sounded so similar to ours, I was concerned that our mutual guest will think I 'stole'/ copied their ideas. But talking about it more with FH, I found out it is also a weekend of celebration, but not as extravegent as ours, there's is more low key. And the 'special extras' will also be similar but different enough I 'm really excited about our weekend wedding since our wedding is the 'Jan Brady' of weddings between two of my cousins, it was our way to be different and alot of people were really excited about it being a weekend wedding, on Long Island. I'm a total brat tho, & I feel bad for being so evil, I just didn;t want then to do the same thing we were doing before ours, I now see how childish that thought is....

There's plenty of time between the first wedding and yours. It was your and DH's choice to have a long engagement. It's not as if you can call dibs on every moment before your wedding. Be happy for them.




You took the words right out of my mouth .... I totally agree with this.

IF they picked a date right before yours or while you were planning on being on your honeymoon, I could understand a bit how one would be upset ....
