    10000 Comments Sixth Anniversary 500 Love Its First Answer
    edited December 2011
    Wow...that was fun reading girls. This is the first time BSC girls have come in a nice little package of two.

    OP - I am not engaged, BF and I are not getting engaged for a long time, I am also young (20) and still in college. These are all things girls claim they get flamed for on this (and other boards) but the truth is if you didn't act like a crazy person you wouldn't get yourself flamed. So when you ask for advice don't freak out when you get it, don't tell people where they can/cannot post, and don't plan your wedding before you are engaged. Looking at things in a day-dreaming way is fine but you really should focus on your relationship right now.

    [QUOTE] and I love reading and replying to other girls' posts  <strong>Fine</strong>

    (as well as dress/ring/stuff "shopping") <strong>Browsing = fine     shopping = iffy</strong>

    Since I know I'm not getting engaged anytime soon.. do you think its silly or wrong to be searching for the perfect wedding I never got the first time?? <strong>this is the part where you ASKED for opinions.  people here are honest, they won't give you confirmation if they don't think the same thing.  as i've said, it's fine to browse/get idea, but "searching" is the same as planning and yes, we do think it is silly/wrong to plan a wedding when you aren't yet engaged.</strong>

    Its so hard cause I Can't Not Knot!
    Posted by LadyFace1021[/QUOTE]

    OP, you need to re-read your first post.  No one was attacking you, they were giving opinions.

    Coming back with defensive remarks and having your "friend" join just to back you up is just a one way ticket to actually get attacked.

    It is fine if you want to stay, no one is saying you can't, but just remember that you haven't exactly made a lot of friends here with how you've acted...

    Posted by LadyFace1021[/QUOTE]

    Yes I think it is both silly and wrong.

    Among many other things I'm inclined to give you a major side eye for comparing your very rushed 1st wedding to this somewhere in the future wedding and having them compete in your mind. That seems a bit shallow to me.

    Guano is such a fun word. OP and all her fans, there is no kool-aide, there are Mimosas or Mojitos. The point is, we don't validate bad ideas. Those are bad ideas. I also won't recommend that you place your head in the oven.

    I have that bottle, Paige! My old roommate bought me that syrup a few years ago (and it was GOOD syrup, I must say!), and I kept the bottle cuz it's purdy. Refilling it gets everything sticky though. Me, the counter, the bottle, BF, the dog, the...I'll stop there ;)

    Yes that's essentially all I feel like contributing to this fine convo. ...that, and I before I came to these boards I would feel a bit BSC for just browsing at stuff, and could never bring myself to save any ideas/pictures. I have no idea how people can take it any further and not see anything wrong with it.
