    WEDDING!  WEDDING!  WEDDING!  WEDDING! 

    Where did you say anything about the marriage aspect of the whole wedding?  Nowhere.

    Plus you don't use capitalization.  That is exceedingly annoying.

    You're not engaged.

    We're not in the habit of encouraging the planning of a wedding for girls who are not engaged. That goes double for girls who don't seem to grasp the concept of marriage.

    I do judge people who are all about weddings and forget that there is a marriage attached to that wedding.  So when the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th impressions you give me are all about the wedding and how you've caught the bug, I will judge you and think you are a dipshit.  It isn't personal.  I think this about all girls that behave like you have.

    P.S.  Weddings should be planned by those that are actually engaged.

    My BF has about seven to choose from. For free. With memories.  His grandma has offered her entire collection to him for him to choose from.  And she keeps adding more to it and letting him know whenever he wants to stop by and check it out he can.  She tells him this on a nearly daily basis (they work together).  The ring is perfectly accessable.

    But I know I won't be getting it until at least the end of the summer, if not longer.

    You're right, clearly my goal here was to better my day. It coudln't possibly have something to do with the fact that you presented yourself in a completely unflattering light.

    You think that THAT was putting you down.  I call it forming an opinion based on observations made due to the information presented.  If you want to be perceived differently, then you need to think about what you are putting out there. 

    I cannot make you feel anything.  You are only as small as you decide to be.  I decided a long time ago that I would not be small (luckily, I got pregnant so I am accomplishing this.)

    It is very naive of you to think that you could come in here and be instant friends with anyone.  Some of us have been on here for a year (others longer.)  Some of us are friends outside TK.  You don't get to be in the club because you've lurked for awhile and decide you are going to participate now.

    Serious, word of advice: back down now. Save face and start slow. Add your opinion to threads for a while and get to know the other girls here. Mutley is blunt but she is rarely wrong.

    FYI if you lurk, you'll get a lot of answers to your questions. For example, there is a post titled Roll Call where everyone posted info about themselves including relationship status.

    Serious -- it's okay. Mutley doesn't have to like you for you to be allowed to post here.

    She is correct that she can't MAKE you feel anything.

    So decide to not be bothered and keep posting if you feel like it.

    I think you're probably okay, but I automatically like anyone who exhibits interest in my wedding. I'm easy like that. :)

    I think the ideas you have about wedding planning are fine. It's totally okay, in my book, to have thoughts about weddings and engagements when those things are happening around you.

    It's not like you've picked a date, venue, dress, or anything else.

    It's okay to think that people here would be wedding-focused and to unthinkingly talk about weddings instead of your relationship.

    I don't see the BFD. It's like newbies have to come on and talk about their relationship before they're allowed to express any ideas about weddings, otherwise they're BSC. Personally, I think we can sometimes be a little overeager for some BSC entertainment and unnecessarily jump all over newbs.

    So, yeah. Keep posting if you feel like it. If you continue to annoy people, they clearly will not hesitate to let you know. But express intelligence and humor, and I think you will likely be forgiven any missteps in your first few days.

    NEY...we've been together for two and a half years.  We're waiting until he graduates from college (this May!!) and is financially stable.  I'm already stable...I'm a year older and finishing up my first year teaching (EEK!! 36 more days!).

    Not engaged yet, but will be around the beginning of June. My BF, who is an active duty soldier, is deploying for his 4th time in a few months to Iraq and he told me he's going to propose (he couldn't keep the secret) on his predeployment leave.. so I'm pretty excited. :-) We plan on getting married as soon as he returns from Iraq next year.

    I'm just praying that God can get me, and him, through the year apart... it's my first deployment and I already break down over it...

    [QUOTE]Serious -- it's okay. Mutley doesn't have to like you for you to be allowed to post here.

    Where does anyone get this idea?  I've said countless times over that I don't care what other people do.  I don't care if someone continues to post here that annoys me.  I will comment on the annoyance, but they can do whatever the eff they want.  No skin off my back.  I've never pretended that someone needs my approval to post here.

    [QUOTE]I don't see the BFD. It's like newbies have to come on and talk about their relationship before they're allowed to express any ideas about weddings, otherwise they're BSC. Personally, I think we can sometimes be a little overeager for some BSC entertainment and unnecessarily jump all over newbs.

    So, yeah. Keep posting if you feel like it. If you continue to annoy people, they clearly will not hesitate to let you know. But express intelligence and humor, and I think you will likely be forgiven any missteps in your first few days.

    For me, the BFD is when someone comes in here all about the wedding.  It screams pretty princess day crap to me.  I also didn't think that the OP was BSC.  I thought her priorities were off.  There is a big difference between a wedding and a marriage.  So yes, when someone comes in here continually commenting on the wedding aspect without giving mention to the marriage part, I will put them on notice.

    Also, I do accept some newbs.  Yes, they are few and far between.  I think that after awhile you get a sense of what someone will be like from their first post.  Why waste time?  Sometimes I ignore them all together, but other times they do need to be told they are out of line.  I don't know if others feel the same way, but that is my POV.

    Some people will forgive missteps.  Others will not.  That is why first impressions exist.

    You should really feel sorry for my DH.  He is the one with the b!tch wife and the monkey baby.  I must be fabulous in bed for him to stick around.

    Yes, Mutley, that was exactly my point. Your approval is not necessary, so the OP shouldn't stop posting if she wants to continue.

    Making comments about a pregnant woman's unborn child is over the line, though, Serious. Uncalled for and completely inappropriate.
