[QUOTE]Ok...so I have my 3 cousins in my wedding party my MOH is the oldest and then her 2 twin sisters are the bridesmaids...I understand that they live 45 mins away from me but I try texting them or calling them to keep them updated and it seems like they don't care or don't want to help. I'm trying to just let it go since i have basically done everything by myself anyways. When i got my dress I only had my mom and her friend from work there. Then my dad had to call and get them to go get their dresses. Even then they bring their friends too it which I have no idea who they are. They showed up late the the shower my mom's friend had for me and I had to text them to find out if I'm even having a bachloratte party. I know that they have never been in a wedding before but I need help. IDK what to do I want to tell them that I want them out of the wedding but I don't think I can the wedding is in 6 weeks.

Try lurking first. Seriously, if you read through even the first page of posts, your question would be answered. Your situation is not special.

Scroll down and read some of the threads on this page. You'll get your answer.

Joined yesterday and the wedding's in February?

banana468 · December 2009

Your wedding is in six weeks! Don't ask anyone to step down now.

Rather than going by text, if you want help, I recommend calling them and talking to them and asking for the help. If they can give it then that's great.

I'll agree that it's not great to show up to the shower late but it sounds like these ladies are really young and not "up" on what a lot of BMs will do.

When I ordered my MOH to have her dad build a candy buffet, she laughed at me, so I kicked her in the face and made her sign a brideslave contract. Ever since then, things have been fine.

Did anyone look at her profile? She's 20...just a little beebee. Who wants to set her straight? Callers?

[QUOTE]I have tired calling them and they don't sound like they care at all. One of the bridesmaids told me that she might not be able to be there during the day of my wedding just right before the wedding because she has something to do. On christmas I asked them what is going on feb. 11 which is the rehersal but they didn't know and I tell them all the time. I've tired looking on here for other people with my problem and I can't find it.

I'm sorry. What?

Mrs.B6302007 · December 2009

I'm calling it ladies.

stina93446 · December 2009

Where do all of you people come from?!

saisongbird · December 2009

Amsouza - three things.

1) Your "problem" is not unique.

2) Most of your "problem" is not really a "problem."

3) The "problem" here is YOUR expectations, not your girls' reactions. They're your family, not your slaves.

Mrs.B6302007 · December 2009

From under the bridge, duh.

Who's on first?

aerinpegadrak · December 2009

Are you close with these girls normally, or are they your bridesmaids just because they're family? If you didn't really have a relationship before you got engaged, it's not surprising that you don't really have a relationship now, and that they simply don't care. People don't change who they are because you got new jewelry.

If you were close with these girls before and now they seem to be pulling away, maybe something's going on in all of their lives. But if three people have independently done a 180 personality-wise in your relationship, maybe YOU'RE the one with the problem. If one of my friends were calling me every time she changed her color scheme or adjusted the menu, I wouldn't be returning her calls either. No one, and I mean no one, will care about your wedding as much as you, and hopefully your FI.

Cause that's going to make people stop posting.

If I got a text on Christmas Day asking about a February rehearsal, I'd probably shut my phone off.

MyNameIsNot · December 2009

Obviously, you are a troll. But if you were real, you'd be way too immature to be getting married. You are acting more like 12 than 20.

banana468 · December 2009

Guys, I know we've had a lot of posts like this here but PLEASE remember that the OP needs to be treated with respect.

aerinpegadrak · December 2009

I'm guessing that I was right, the OP was never that close to the cousins, and somehow hoped that they'd be friends through the wedding.

stina93446 · December 2009

OP even if you want us to stop posting, your original post was already quoted and therefore it makes you like a big baby/bee bee/bewbe for trying to run away.
