I confess that I'm topping Natalie.. haha my wedding is in under 4 months and my STDS have been sitting here for months ready to go out. LOL Is it even worth it to send them??

Ok, here goes...

One of my BM just got engaged. She's marrying one of our GM, who also happens to be FI's cousin. I love the two of them. They're amazing. Well, I was talking to her this morning and she tells me about a spat... more like a huge fight... that she got in to with her FI's mom... which leads to my confession...

I love FI, and I can't wait to marry him. But being a part of his family... I'm not thrilled about. I don't personally have any issues with them, however, I completely disagree with the way they think, do things, etc. And once I heard what had happened between my BM and her FMIL, it was all confirmed for me. We are after all both marrying in to the same family. The way they treated her, and have treated her... for the past 11 years mind you (she's been with her now FI for 11 years!), is deplorable.

Is it horrible that I could do without his fam.? I would never tall him that of course, and I can most certainly deal with them, but everyone hasa breaking point; and I'm fiercely loyal to those I love. Eeekkk!!!

Stephanie, that sounds awful.

I can't really empathize because my own FMIL, although irritating at times, is a very sweet lady. But I used to have issues with my ex MIL and ex grandmother-in-law and I can sincerely say that the issues I had with them helped to begin the ultimate deterioration of my marriage.

You need to always be smarter than them. Stand up for yourself, but always do so diplomatically. Also, I think the best thing you can do is keep them at arm's length. Don't let them in too much into your and your FI's life. A weekly cordial phone call is cool, but more than that will inevitable lead to problems with her type of person.

Good luck!

Steph ... wow! Like Janet said, be a step ahead of them, and you don't have to deal with fI's family's crap. Juntos pero no mezclados, eh?

I confessssss...

I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED!!! My whole planning process consisted of me being nervous, stressed, freaked out, but no more! I am finally at that stage where everything is falling into place (so many unaccounted checks lol), and I'm ready

Don't get me wrong, it hasn't been a via cruxis but when I thought "3 months away ,,, 2 months away ... 1 MONTH AWAY!" my stomach dropped! Now it's all butterflies and rainbows and ice cream. Bring it!

Natalie97 · October 2010

Steph, I wish you the best with them...it will be tough, for all of us to learn when to say something and when to keep quiet or have our FI's say something to them. Your love is worth it!

I also confess that you are all making me want to go on Etsy and just buy something WR so I can announce that I have a check, I feel left out! lol Maybe I'll get the rest of my programs today or check out a BM dress!

Steph: cant say it better then the girls...keeps some space..i learned that from a past experinence too and even thoughh my fmil is really nice and we get along im just keep my distance

Nat Lynn: I never sent them out either...lol...but Lyn your invites are going out sooo soon I wouldnt even bother!

I confess:

Im a tired mess...my room got flooded the day of the "oh so powerful tropical storm"... i swear if it had been a real tropical storm i would have to swim out LOL...so the roofers came this morning and woke me up with thier obnoxious knocking..even when i yelled HOLD ON PLEASE in both spanish and english a few times....they kept knocking! ssheeesh! (and i yelled throught the door) but atleast my roof is sealed! LOL...

Now im not looking forward to cleaning today cause i did legs at the gym 2 days ago and im walking like a duck! LOL

So happy im not buying anything wedding this month and just relaxing from the caos...im just getting ready for HHN on the 23! wooohooo!

CandisH · October 2010

LoL Natalie, you crack me up!

I confess that this week has been mania! i'm still regretting taking so many classes this semester while trying to plan the wedding!

I feel like I've gotten a lot of check, but mainly small ones, but I'm putting things together in my head... slowly

I also confess that me, FI and our families are all one big happy family again and its AWESOME!

LAKE21 · October 2010

I confess that I put my confession in the wrong thread. Sorry Marian! I have no idea where my brain is lately.

I also confess that I have no drive to do wedding stuff. All my attention has been focused on the new baby.
