(whom she met 3 months prior, when I introduced them)</p> <p>I just stared at her and said "......Yes?"&nbsp;</p> <p>No, grandma, I broke up with that guy and then met and started dating and became engaged to SOMEONE NEW all in less than 3 months.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-334374 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 16:23:26 +0000 eloping 334374@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>omg CC..... killing grandma with your wedding is priceless!!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-334360 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 16:18:37 +0000 Carrot Cake 334360@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>My future in-laws are just a treasure trove of awesome PA comments.</p> <p>When we announced our plans for a two-year engagement (as I had just graduated from law school and wanted some time to be an out-of-school adult before getting married) his mother said to me "Well, that is too bad, cause Mr. Carrot Cake's grandmother would have liked to come, but she will be dead by then."</p> <p>WHA?! how do you respond to that?</p> <p>Then, we moved the wedding up a year (NOT becuase of grandma, but other reasons).&nbsp; it is an hour away from grandma's house, but because of her water pills and her need to use the bathroom frequently (and her being unwilling to use the bathroom at the wedding venue), grandma might not come to the wedding.&nbsp; When I asked why, his mother said "well, she can't come if she takes her pills, and if she doesn't take her pills, she will die- you don't want your wedding to kill her do you?"</p> <p>seriously?</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-326141 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 15:04:41 +0000 surkim 326141@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Some of these are insane!</p> <p>I'm sure if/when the ring/wedding time comes, I'll be getting a ton.</p> <p>There's already been a "I didn't raise you this way!" to my boyfriend, and a "well when you get married you want to ask for things like waterford crystal and [other not terribly useful stuff], not [useful things like new pots/pans/etc]!" to me.</p> <p>What brought this on? &nbsp;Wanting to keep things that the people selling us our house were leaving us instead of going into super-debt to get shiny new things. &nbsp;No point in getting rid of perfectly usable stuff.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-326032 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 14:24:47 +0000 The Future Mrs. Q 326032@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>NWR but still funny, My Great-Grandmother who is up in age would always forget that I was Preggo, so Evertime she saw me she would always talk about how much weight I was gaining. I am a small girl so it was so obvious. I just smiled and said I'm pregnant remember?.....Priceless....</p> <p>I love everyone elses post- Hilarious</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-325969 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 14:03:44 +0000 jennifer_espos 325969@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>How about my Aunt.&nbsp; This isn't passive agressive as much as it is blantantly aggressive.&nbsp; When I mentioned, in passing that I'd like to get wine stoppers as favors:&nbsp; "That's tacky, white trash, horrible... I hate when I go to a wedding and there are favors- You will NOT do that".&nbsp; My response, "funny cause it's my wedding and that's what I want and I didn't think of myself as white trash".&nbsp; Sounds kinda soft but I was seething.&nbsp; And her response was, "well, if that's what you want but it's a waste", so then, forgive me folks, I just said, "asshole".&nbsp; To no one in particular but I think it was understood.&nbsp; We're super close lol (actually we are but she's waaaay too opinionated and this is only after she's already tried on numerous occasions to plan my wedding since she doesn't have a daughter of her own, yikes)</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-324462 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 20:02:50 +0000 Lilypad308 324462@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I just remember a good friend's d-bag of a boyfriend trying to talk us out of marriage before we even got engaged because he didn't believe in it. This was the first time we'd met him. Needless to say, I was not disappointed when they broke up.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/an-ode-to-the-passive-aggressive-comment/page/5#post-324422 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 19:41:17 +0000 lrwedd 324422@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>AmberMcBride: Hilarious!!!
