Sorry if this is confusing, its hard to fit 22 years of things into a post : )
First off, my FI and I booked our DJ today, whom we are very happy with. Yay! My FI has a podcast and our now DJ has done bumpers for them in the past, so he knew he wanted him to DJ.
Anyways, my family knows a couple who babysat my brother and I when we were little. Literally since I was 6 weeks old. Well, ever since they stopped babysitting me, they have been practically like stalkers. When I was in college they would call and text me everyday, asking me what I was doing.
My parents are divorced, and the couple know where they both live, both of my parents have seen them driving by their houses very slowly, don't stop or anything, just snooping.
Right after I graduated I was lucky enough to get a good job, which happened to be where the guy retired from. I am a security officer, and just to give you an idea of how busy we are, we get about 300 phone calls per day. Just a few weeks ago, he showed up at my work (he was allowed to in because he was a retiree) and found out from old buddies when I worked. That night, he called my work telephone number, mind you my boss was sitting right next to me. All he said when I answered was "If you looked at the log, you would have known I was there today" in a very weird, creepy voice. Him and his wife proceeded to talk to me for 5 minutes, thinking they could talk to me for an hour. That was my breaking point and when I decided they are crazy.
Anyways, on to the point. The couple are friends with me on facebook, as well as the rest of my family. They have been posting on my facebook for a while now (at least twice a week) asking me when my wedding is and that they know a great DJ. Well, needless to say, I never responded because I do not want them at my wedding. We just booked our DJ today, and literally 9 hours later he posted on my facebook saying that our DJ is their next door neighboor! Are you kidding me! Our DJ doesn't even know that I know them! How did they find out!
Most people's solution would be just to delete and block them on facebook, I wish it was that easy. If I did that, they would be messaging my mom, dad, and brother asking me what happened. I know this because I have tried it before. Now my mom is telling me that I can't get out of inviting them to our wedding. They will know the date of the wedding because they are close to our DJ, and even if they don't get an invite, they will show up! I don't want to tell our DJ to not give them details because him and my FI do business together on a regular basis, I don't want him to get the wrong impression of my FI. I feel like I don't have any other choice. They are older but these things have been going on for at least 10 years, I don't know what to do! I just don't understand why people are so idiotic sometimes.
Thanks for letting me vent!
