He's such a fly-by-the-seat-of-his-pants guy. I, on the other hand, am Type-A, list-making, at times obsessive planner. Maybe that's why we get along?</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-457046 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 22:50:18 +0000 yrret107 457046@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>How he always&nbsp; takes his mom side, how he thinks his mom is alwyas right and how much he relies on his mom for practically everything.&nbsp; It was hard but now that I took a job a few states away, it made him and I closer because we are now on our own.&nbsp; He is a bit more independent but planning this wedding and the FMIL and I getting into some arguments about what "she expects" is hard.&nbsp; I feel bad doing this, but I had to cut her off from any wedding plans.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-457007 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:27:04 +0000 Stassney 457007@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>All these complaints about WoW blow me away.. lol</p> <p>My fiance works for the company and plays.. I feel like if I can handle that (which is hard sometimes) that it isnt a huge deal..</p> <p>But of course this is coming from someone who also has a WoW account and will play whenever I get the little itch for it.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456996 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:09:14 +0000 TPHoliday 456996@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Yeah I hear you on the WOW, before WOW it was Everquest. He would blow me off ALL weekend, b/c they had 3 day raids! And he was in a guild that raiding was mandatory 5 nights out of the week!?!? Seriously?? He is ALOT better now, Magic is only 3 nights out of the week. But there are sometimes when people ask me about where he is, and I cringe when I say Magic.</p> <p>lol</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456671 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:46:58 +0000 Ms Mini 456671@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>This is going to sound bad, but FH's pet allergies were almost a deal breaker.</p> <p>I am a huge animal lover, I cannot ever see my life without dogs and cats in my home. When we first started dating, I had been on a wait list for a Newfoundland puppy for almost 2 years. We made it official, and then that week I got the news that my puppy was born and I finally was going to have my big fluffy Newfie - FH said he wasn't sure if it was a "good idea" because of his allergies - I made it clear that I had waited for years for this puppy, and it was coming and staying, and that he would have to deal with it if he wanted to be with me.&nbsp;</p> <p>We found him a good allergist/immunologist.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456645 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:36:55 +0000 His Barista 456645@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Amanda.lynn- His is wed. lol. We have the same rule!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456640 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:35:10 +0000 cardigan 456640@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>@his barista - um yeah, Tuesday nights are still off-limits for me because it's his raid night. We've kind of come to the agreement that he can do that once a week and I won't complain at all - he can stay on as long as he wants. But other nights, he has to limit it!!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456632 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:32:24 +0000 His Barista 456632@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I'm with Future Mrs. Martin and Amanda.lynn on this one. lol. There was a point where FI would turn down going on dates with me because it was raid night. wth? haha. We had several fights about it, but now he's much better about it, and doesn't come to bed *As* late as he was.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456581 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:07:50 +0000 cardigan 456581@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>@Future Mrs. Martin - Same here! My FI went through a period where he was a little too into WOW for my tastes - it felt like nothing else mattered to him! But we talked about it (several times) and he's gotten so much better.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/what-was-almost-a-dealbreaker#post-456580 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:06:05 +0000 Dizzy 456580@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>This is still an issue for me, but now that Mr. Dizzy is starting to see it, it's not so much of a big issue.&nbsp;</p> <p>His uncle is 47, and married a woman who just turned 32.&nbsp; I don't have a problem with that (Mr. Dizzy and I are 10 years apart).&nbsp; However, his aunt and Mr. Dizzy are the same age.&nbsp; She always complains to me about her hubby (even though I have witnessed him treating her like a princess...she'll say, "my feet are cold" and he'll go get sock and put them on her freaking feet for her!).&nbsp; Then, she'll get really interested in whatever Mr. Dizzy is doing (he's really into Victorian cemetery sculptures).&nbsp; So she'll go to cemeteries and take pictures and try to make herself a part of what he's doing.&nbsp; Regardless of the fact that I'm the one who makes sure he gets to wherever it is that he wants to go.&nbsp;</p> <p>She wanted to come out here and plan a weekend with just herself and Mr. Dizzy so they could go to this little town and visit all the old cemeteries.&nbsp; Seriously?&nbsp; I just about blew my lid.&nbsp; She calls him EVERY NIGHT during snuggle time "just to talk," and then keep him on the phone for at least an hour and a half; usually I've fallen asleep by the time he gets off the phone with her.&nbsp; This is his AUNT!!!!</p> <p>I've told him that I think she's in love with him.&nbsp; He didn't believe me.&nbsp; Until this past week, he told her that he was going to send his brother money for something.&nbsp; And she freaked out and told him how irresponsible he was and blah blah blah.&nbsp; He and I had talked about it, and I was cool with it.&nbsp; But she was not.&nbsp; She called him up and basically said that she had to approve every. single. item. that he purchased.&nbsp; She wanted to have access to HIS [not our].&nbsp; And then she started crying.</p> <p>And now he believes me.&nbsp; She's super obsessed with him, it's kinda creepy.</p>
