You know you're addicted to LIW when...

Original post by chichila15

.... you think about what to post in your sleep.
.... you respond with faces, just because you want to get your 'total posts' up.
.... you make excuses to constantly be on a computer, when you don't own one.
.... you get mad at FH because of something you read on LIW.
.... you have discussions with FH about 'what happened on LIW today'.
.... you have more topics saved in your notebook, then you've posted.
.... you've reached 'Board Fanatic' stage in less than a month.

Keep the list going, and add to it!

you refer to your FH to other people as FH.

As in 'Yea, FH & I were just talking about that' ... then people look at you strangley like that the heck is an FH???!!!!






AHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAa! I just did that TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've done ALL of these!

Or you try and go on a different website, non-wedding realated, so ya don't feel as pathetic for being on here 99% of the time but then come back to LI Weddings after 5 mins...just to 'check in'

.... you talk more to 'LIW people' than your own friends.

--you meet someone before work to give them something wedding related (someone off this site) and you don't even know their first name!!!!!! (Chichila...That's for you!) My name is Stacy not Flaca and you are Lissette!!
--you get to a LIW GTG and you can just know where the Brides 2 Be table is!!!



Thanks again, btw, S-T-A-C-Y!... hahahaha



I thought her name was Flatica and I kept calling her that the whole time. Not that I could not remember Stacy but she is Flatica!!

-you check for new posts before you go to bed and then again first thing when you wake up!

You meet another B2B out there in the wedding world and the first thing you ask AFTER when and where they are getting married is if they have ever heard of LIW???

You have converstations with people in real life and go Ohhhh this girl I know on LIW has that/is doing that etc.




I do that! And then I say, wait I don't really know that girl!



I get so sick of explaining to people that I now just go ' Oh my friend' and if people ask what friend I say WELL YOU DONT KNOW THEM!! LOL



Why do people give us the blank stare when we say, 'Oh my friend on LIW says...' or 'My friend on LIW did..'?? FH got so embarrassed when I said that when we were out with another couple.

when you are on the site so much in front of FH or DH, and/or talk about it so much with him, that HE:

- starts to use the abbreviations and lingo
- asks you what is new on LIW
- tells his other guy friends about the site

You know you're on here too much when your FH wants to make a baseball team out of all the other lonely FHs/DHs he knows must be out there because of the site

Re: You know you're addicted to LIW when...

Ok my last one!!!
Your FH asks why you have been home all day and the house is a mess and you say.. well there was so much going on on LIW that I just got carried away!
( besides who wouldnt rather be on here then cleaning the toilet ?!?!?!)

Or you skip going out to lunch at work to catch up on the morning LIW gossip lol

.... you get mad when LIW doesn't update your email address immediately after someone posts something you've subscribed you.

- your FI thinks these people are coworkers & not just people on the internet you talk to all day!
- your mom thinks LIW is a new gym you joined & all these people with odd names (yes like Flaca ) work out there
- you FREAK out screaming when you find out someone you know is on it & yu never knew it was them!!
- you become hysterical when the site goes down!

...am I at 1000 posts yet?

Arghhhhhh! I hate when that happens! Even worse is when someone who just wants to chat is the one interrupting. If I'm starting at my monitor while you talk, that means I'm busssssssy!!!!!
