[QUOTE]In Response to Re: I CANT BELIEVE IT!! : I agree in most cases, but I think there are times when common sense (and simple decency) trump etiquette.  If a friend of mine attempted to invite my ex as her plus one, then I'd probably put my foot down; it would make FI uncomfortable in a way I'm not going to tell him to "just deal with" on his wedding day.  A girl posted another scenario on E the other day: a guest's boyfriend had previously assaulted her MOH (or something similar; I don't remember the details).  I know etiquette dictates that he gets an invite because you don't separate social units, blah blah blah ... but in all honesty, I'd tell her not to bring him.  My FI (in the first situation) and MOH (in the second) come first.  This may be an Unpopular Opinion.

I wanted to pipe in and say that you said that perfectly.  Good call.  It does entirely depend on situation also.

Well that makes sense I do feel a bit of an idiot for my initial reaction but just thinking how all the work we have put in to this day being great I wouln't want to have to put Fi through that.

Plus it was probably my fault you misunderstood because clearly my first post is a little hard to read

Ok I read your other post and yes, she's a B, but you still flew off the handle. If one of H's friends had wanted to invite his ex to our wedding and I reaction "OMG she's a biitch and I don't want her there and you're not invited!"  they would think I'm an insecure crazy. Verses "I don't think Fi or I are comfortable having her there on our wedding day, given their very turbulent past."

You see?

Yeh katie I really should have handled it better, I think it was the initial shock. I apologized, considering FI's friend wasn't the biggest fan of mine to start with I doubt he's forgiven me.

[QUOTE]are you sure he wasn't joking?  maybe this guy is just an asshole who wanted to get a reaction out of you and he obviously got it. <strong>if this is real, tell your FI to handle it, it's his friend and his ex, that falls in the "not your problem" category.

</strong>Yup.

I'm pretty confident Ron Burgundy would be proud of this thread.  He'd want to be friends with it.

No, I believe she's actually from England. The home of English.

[QUOTE]WOW ok so the wedding is coming up so i was calling around finding out guests names etc and one of fis "friends" just told me that he is bringing fi's EX WIFE as a date....i was like wtf........i flipped out and told him if he was going to bring her he wouldnt be welcome ......a bit more info they arent dating she is actually married to someone elsewhich makes me believe that shes only coming to either start drama or....hmm no thats it....im paranoid now that shes just going to turn up.... and what makes it worse is the wedding is out of state why would someone travel that far to try and ruin our day.... so sorry this was just a vent !!
Posted by abbiewebster[/QUOTE]

If she shows up, do you think you are going to have any time during your wedding day to spend with her?  NO WAY, you'll be busy with your other relatives, friends, in-laws, DH etc!

Punctuation is your friend like others in this thread have mentioned.

I love the visuals!

Brick was my favorite part of that whole movie!

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

Believe it or not, I had those saved on my computer!

Also, my apartment smells of rich mahagony.

My friend absolutely loves the beginning when he says, "Later in life, I'll be told I have an IQ of 40 and am therefore 'mentally retarded.'"

LedZeppelin

I love that part, too! And how he's putting mayo in the toaster as he says it.

Where'd you get your clothes from? The toilet store?

Brick is so awesome.

This is NOT a blog. It is a message board. There is a difference.

And, grammar is always important, because the written word is all you have here to convey your message, and yourself to others.

She got plenty of compassion, unless you skipped that part.
