Can I vent for a minute? (WR)

This is totally a LJ post, so feel free to ignore it, but I needed to get it out there before I say something I don't mean. I love my bff/bridesmaid. I do. But she has been complaining NONSTOP about wedding stuff-I have NEVER asked for help, in fact I've actually turned her down a few times, because I know that she's busy. She called me 2 days before my shower complaining about how awful my sister (and MOH) is...I calmed her down. She had a freak out about her dress not shipping on time last week...I calmed her down. Now she just texted me a picture of her dress complaining that it's too big, and that the alterations are going to be expensive...I'm sorry? I've suggested 2 different places for alterations that were recommended to be by friends who were married last year, and have offered to help with expenses several times. 

I feel like all I've done for the last 3 months is calm HER nerves about the wedding...yeah, that's pretty much it. Not looking for advice, just ready for it to be June 5th, and to be on my way to Costa Rica with FI

  • She's not usually like this either, so I have no idea what's going on

    Sounds like a classic case of the green eyed monster to me. Maybe take a break from talking about wedding related stuff around her.

  • My sister is very type-A, which isn't a bad thing, because she gets things done, but apparently she (my sister) didn't feel like she was getting enough help with my bridal shower. She and my bff got into it, and it ended in a teary phone call from bff to me.


  • Yes, they're fine now. I'm just getting stupidly overwhelmed with school and planning, and this isn't helping.
  • Yeesh.  I'm sorry she's being so high-maintenance.  That's an unenviable position to be in.  :(

  • I just came to say I think you're pretty and everyone who's giving you problems can suck it. =)

    Awww shucks!
  • Let's be honest... 





    She's just jealous

  • I agree. She seems a little jealous, but when the day comes I'm sure that she will be better and have a good time. Things will work out.
