    [QUOTE]Rach- this is going to sound really stupid coming from me right now but... chill out.  Nobody here really knows you or your FI or your situation, so you shouldn't get too upset about it.  (Easy to say, I know...)  But, you'll feel better if you just let it go.  You know what's right for you better than anyone else.  We're all asses sometimes.

    Yes, Kiki, easier said than done. Despite "knowing my relationship while others don't," it's really hard to have a bad day, take it out on Rich---and walk away looking like a perfect angle with a pile of shiit for a fiance.

    And Bec, sorry for the overuse of "ass." <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-embarassed.gif" border="0" alt="Embarassed" title="Embarassed" />

    [QUOTE]....so what you're saying, Rach, is that you enjoy ass...am I following you on this?
    Posted by NuggetBrain[/QUOTE]

    In short, yes. You're very intuitive, nugget. (I think maybe I just like getting away with posting that word and not needing to add an extra "s")

    [QUOTE]Rach, I'm going to agree that you're taking this too personally.  While I have clearly missed all of the Rich drama, I am sure that anyone who has called him an ass or said anything negative is only doing so out of misguided care for you.  Of course none of us know Rich or his side of anything, so who cares what we think?  We all clearly really like you and think you deserve to be with someone who treats you well.  I consider myself to be the ass in my relationship as well but since I'm the one that is on here I'm sure if I came on and biitched abot my FI in a moment of weakness people would see him as an ass.  FWIW having missed all the drama I am sure all of the health issues you have been facing are really tough on both of you and I commend both of you for being as strong as you can throughout this tough time.

    I only take it personally because it is personal. I bitched about him, and people told me to run from him---that's personal. And when I did try to explain, I just became the likeness of a newb who backtracks and makes excuses.

    Truth is, I was being a whiney brat. So I wanted to let that be known.

  • WTF is going on?  Do I need to read all these pages?  Or is it all just the same ole shiit?
  • Rach, BTW, have I told you that you remind me of Scarlett Johanssen in your new sig pic?  For realz.

  • In other news, this is the internet. You should probably not get too riled up about what people you've never met and probably will never meet have to say about things you've decided to put out there for them to judge you and or your fiance on. And you should also probably not be surprised when they continue to bring it up, since they didn't exactly get the info from the psychic friends network.

    C'mon jessjo, explain how this works.
  • I don't understand teh getting defensive and angry about people making comments based on information you yourself provided,

    Hello.. when you go online and bitch about your FI that is all anyone has to go on.



    Also;

    If you make many posts about what a jerk your FI is, the none day post "awwww my FI is awesome he brought me a soda"   that is not going to redeem him in anyone's eyes.

    If you don't want internet strangers judging you , your FI or your relationship.  Keep shiit to yourself.

  • Colleen, it is pretty much the same shiit, different FFF, but amusing nonetheless. I feel pretty lame because I can't work up a good flame, but I am happy to be sipping on my adult version of a juice box - pomegranate juice with brandy, heated to piping hot with just a couple of drops of orange blossom water in it. Exotic, warming, and intoxicating all in 1 mug.

    There's nothing wrong with saying somebody is an ass when they are, in fact, an ass.  Sometimes Noodle does things and I'm like "Dude, you're such an ass."  Because he is being an ass at the time.  But that doesn't mean he's an assHOLE.  See, that's a big difference to me.  An ass is just someone who might not be the most self-aware, or has said or done something ass-ish or ass-like, but isn't necessarily a bad person or a complete jerkoff all the time.  An assHOLE, on the other hand, is one who consistently walks the path of complete asshat-ery, and doesn't really care if they hurt other people's feelings or if they make other people uncomfortable or inconvenienced. 

    So I could say "Rich is being an ass", and it's just reflecting the fact that, for that particular issue, he is in fact being an ass.  Not that he's an asshole, which means you should kick him in the knee and/or disparage the size of his manparts.

    </div><div>This pretty much sums up what I was going to say. I don't know you from Adam, don't care about you or your FI, and have nothing invested in this. So take this advice.</div><div>
    </div><div>People can only judge based on what YOU post. If you do nothing but post about the assy things your FI has done, then that is the opinion they will form. It's pretty damn hard to undo once you've painted that picture. Next time, think before you rant. </div><div>
    </div><div>And BTW, based on what I have read in this thread, you don't sound like Mother Theresa yourself. I suggest the two of you sit down and talk about the seeming lack of communication. And once you do, don't come post about it. It's really okay to just keep a few things to yourself.

  • This discussion reminds me of people who say that reality shows made them look bad.  "It's the editing."  No, if you don't want something to be taken out of context, misused or whatever, don't say or do it.  The same goes for internet forums. 

    Better to keep that dirty laundry to yourself or post hypothetically...."My sister's best friend's boyfriend's cousin was doing this thing....."

    I don't get married often, but when I do, I do it in Las Vegas.

  • Wow. I can't believe I just read that whole thing.
  • Rach- I apologize if I am completely wrong, but are you the one whose FI was once your professor and now he won't tell any of his coworkers about you? Or am I thinking of someone completely different? Sorry if I'm wrong, I honestly can't remember.

    Planning
  • I read all 11 pages, and I have to say I'm a little disappointed no one brought me up. I really wanted someone to say something so I could eat their face off, get told to chill out, then tell everyone I lashed out due to low self esteem/body dimorphic issues/anxiety/lack of coffee, then we could all have a big kum bah ya therapy session that ends with a group hug.

    *sigh*

  • Colleen, every time I see your name, I get the Ted Leo song by the same name in my head. It's a great song, in case you haven't heard it!
  • Hy lpstl, your husband is a big giant Douchey McDouche and your baby name is stupid.

  • LPSTL, I'm pretty sure in the 'name a knottie' thread someone said they didn't like you. Feel better?
  • lp- Also you're fat. And you have a dumb name.
    Leo says hi. He's...special.

  • lp- you have a really large, round stomach. It makes you look pregnant- Gross.
  • Lack of coffee is probably my favorite excuse used for being an idiot. 

    "I haven't had my coffee so it wasn't my fault"

    "Nope, you're still an idiot. You're just an addict as well"

    Yes, Yes he is.

    LP, I cannot picture you doing anything where someone would come into FFF and sau, "wow, that LP is SUCH a bitch." Has anyone ever flamed you in FFF?

  • lp has fuckhair.
  • She got flamed pretty steady for a while, if I remember correctly, for repeatedly mentioning she'd been on the knot a long time and being on an off board. Not that either of those things are flame worthy, but she brought it up really often for a period of a few weeks.

    TLV what kind of dog is that? And yeah, the whole secret relationship thing is weird and would not make me very comfortable.
  • I'm so sick of all these women   "ohhhh look at me,  I can make a baby".

    How rude!
  • If lpstl has her baby on my wedding day and steals my thunder, I'm going to mail her a bag of dog poop.

    That's more like it.

    I'm googling all you bitches right now, and I'm going to send dog poo to your houses. For everyone who isn't married yet, I'm going to find out where you're getting married, show up in my wedding dress, with my baby, get drunk, and make a really really awkward toast. Then I'm going to hit on your husband, and possibly make out with your father. Aw yeah.
