Not Engaged Yet

OLW

Dear youngest sister,

I'm sorry you had to break up with your boyfriend (again), however I'm concerned that you're still "in a relationship" with him on FB when last time you broke up with him you changed that within an hour. Please, please, PLEASE do not let this mean you are back together already! The guy is a dope and doesn't make you happy, so why, WHY would you stay with him??? Okay - I'm going to tell myself that you're just trying not to hurt his feelings anymore right now and that you'll get around to changing your relationship status later. If you don't, and you're already back together, I'm going to verbally slap you later - that's a promise.

Love,
Your sister who you only call when you're crying

-------------------------------

Dear BF,

Unexpected and unwarranted compliments are the best. You make me feel so good about myself. Keep it up.

Love,
Goobs

----------------------------

Dear middle sister,

I love you, and I appreciate you filling me in on what happened with little sis and her BF, but I can't take you seriously when you talk about your last BF. You said "It sucks knowing you need to end a relationship and you feel so guilty and responsible for someone's unhappiness." Well, yes - you were cheating on your boyfriend of 3 years with his friend, and you told him via Skype when he was out of the country, thus ruining his trip. Just saying - probably not the best way to handle things, which is why you feel bad about it. Mystery solved.

Love,
Older, wiser, sister

--------------------------

Dear @buddysmom80 and @swazzle,

I have to say, I was SO nervous when I was heading out to meet you. i was worried it would be awkward, you wouldn't like me at all, etc. However, the minute I arrived at the restaurant, I started relaxing because you guys were so friendly and fun. I had such a great time drinking with you and cannot wait to do it again!!!

    Dear H,

    I'm sorry I made you feel as if you were driving a middle schooler this morning. Having one car blows, and it's falling on the week of the biggest trip of the school year. Yes, waking up at 6 am is NOT something I'm used to, and joking that I never work doesn't make waking up that early for you any easier. I'm stressed to the max, between the car not working, looking for a new place to live, the holidays coming, and some health issues at church. I love you, but if you ask me one more time if I'm mad at you, I'm going to punch you in the face.

    All my apologies, 
    W

    P.S. If you try and talk politics with me one more time, I may scream at you. CLEARLY my lack of response is a means to maintain a positive relationship with you. 

    -----------------------------------------

    Dear parents,

    Please let me know before I pay for camp that your child cannot attend. It'll save me from badgering you for payment and it WILL save your family money. 

    Use your head,
    Your youth director

    -------------------------------------

    Dear students,

    I told you no, you could not arrive at camp late just because there was a football game you WANTED to attend. The students who ARE arriving late MUST attend the game for a GRADE. You do not. So stop going around behind my back. I hear your conversations, I can see you texting each other, and you can stop trying to manipulate me. 

    Just stop,
    Your youth director

    Dear NEY,

    It feels good to be back.

  • Dear two wedding guests,

    I'm very stressed that you told me last week that you won't be able to make it to the wedding and then called me last night and said plans may have changed so don't count us out yet....I'm paying for your food and alcohol on Friday/Saturday! Tell me today or tomorrow OR ELSE! RSVPs have a date on them for a reason!!! I'd be very happy if you were both there but seriously...let's make up our minds : )

    Love,
    Your cousin

    Dear FI,

    I loved our snuggle conversation last night about what we think our favorite parts of the evening that we get married will be. Obviously both of ours were the moment where we see each other for the first time that day as I walk down the aisle and then when we say "I do". But then...I mentioned our wedding night and that changed everything, so that will be our favorite part of the evening.

    Love,
    Your FI

    Dear wedding,

    You're 17 days away! I can't believe how quickly you have flown by! It's mind blowing! Now I'm trying to take time each day and just think about how much FI and I enjoyed this engagement process and take it all in!

    Dear NEY,

    Sorry all my posts are about the wedding...I have crazy bride brain. You all are amazing and I enjoy conversing with you on a  daily basis! Love you all!

But maybe having a girl/family weekend every once in a while is a good thing. 

    Love you,

I said my goodbyes when he's been here to hear them, and having to work 7 days a week right now is really wearing me out. In return, I promise to do my best to get there because I know that both you and his wife could use some support.
