Hi I need to vent for a second because it seems slightly childish, but my feelings have been hurt and I don't want to dump it on my FI.
Today is my birthday, our wedding is May12th.
My Maid of honor is my sister and she lives 400 miles away, while the next BM lives a couple of hours away as well. the other 2, live right here in my town and none of them have even suggested, mentioned, even said anything about possibly having a shower or a bachlorette get togehter.
Let me clarify, I'm not being selfish or anything, if they suggested it I would tell them not to throw me a shower as this is my 2nd marriage anyway. We aren't even wanting to register for gifts. But, I guess my feelings are just hurt that no one has even mentioned anything. I know my Sis and the other BM can't come to town becuase of expenses before the wedding and I understand that. I'm just feeling really crappy the last few days because they haven't even asked if there is anything they can do to help me with the wedding. My FI and I have done everything ourselves. My sister calls frequently to see how the plans are going and asks me to send pics of the DIY stuff I've done. I guess I just needed to get it off my chest that I'm feeling a little bit of a let down at the lack of interest from our friends. I know they're busy with their own livs, it just makes me not want to go out of my way for anyone anymore.
Then on top of all of that, I am a purchasing person at my job. Whenever it's someone's bday etc or special occassion, I'm the one that has to go pick up a cake, card etc and setup a little party. NOBODY remembered my birthday today. Just made me want to cry on top of all of the other stuff.
Like I said, sounds kind of childish, but I feel a little better anyway.
