    It's been exactly a month since my wedding and I'm still looking at this site multiple times a day.  This got me wondering how many other people are here like me...  And when do the rest of you think you'll stop reading Weddingbee, if ever?

    @Miss Frenchie - I think that's how I feel too.  I will wait until the "bees" that I followed finish their wedding recaps.  So I will pretty much be on here until Miss Lab and Miss Poodle are done with their recaps.  I try not to let myself read any new bee stories so that I don't get wrapped up in more weddings.

    We are almost at our 6 month anniversary and I'm still here!  Of course, I don't have a job at the moment which gives me more free time that usual but don't think I can ever completely go away!

    OH, I would be sad to stop looking at WB!

    My wedding is in a couple weeks, but I can't imagine not coming on here anymore just cuz it's over!

    I chose "other" because I plan on visiting the site for years to come even though I got married this September. I plan on starting my own wedding-related business, so I'll probably be checking up on these boards to keep up with trends, and what brides want! :)

    I'm going to keep reading WB after my wedding for at least as long as it takes to post vendor reviews on the relevant local boards. I also think it's really helpful for the engaged folks in the hive to have some wedding graduates to hit up with their questions. I doubt I'll be here as often once I'm married, but I definitely intend to check back every once in a while!

    I'd really like to say I'd be one of those that sticks around forever, because I love the hive so much. However, knowing my personality, I really worry I will have PWD and hanging out here all the time could make that worse, so I might have to limit it. I'm with redherring though - I will definitely be posting vendor reviews and trying to help other brides-to-be learn from my experiences.

    I'm sure I'll be lurking and posting for quite a while after the wedding. I might need Wedding Bee rehab to quit. Calling Dr. Drew!

    I definitely don't have time to go on here as much as I used to before the wedding, but I'm still here. I like watching other bees plan, post their pics from their big days, and give advice where I can. Of our closest group of friends, we're the only married ones so I could never really talk about wedding stuff that much (or as much as I wanted to) with my closest friends so I felt a connection with WB. It's hard to let that go.

    I think I'll stick around as long as some of the people I've "gotten to know" are still on here - it really makes a difference when you kind of become invested in peoples' lives.

    I think that I'll probably not come on as much but I'll probably stay on for a year(ish). My wedding will be in early 2011 and my bff is probably getting married summer 2011 of 2012 so I'll want to help her with stuff :)

    I will be on here until mid-year 2011 b/c that's when my younger sister is getting married. She wants me to plan it and since her and her FI are on a budget, we will be DIY-ing a lot of her decorations and such. So...I will be coming around to steal...ummm...borrow ideas =)

    My 6th month anniversary was yesterday and I'm still here! :)  If anything, I'm more active now, because I have more free time.  I also became a hostess about 2 weeks before the wedding, so that helped me up my activity.

    My wedding was over a year ago and I'm still around!  There's too many good ideas and great people, so I don't think I'll ever leave for good! :)

    I got married 2 weeks ago and I am still here.  I don't know when this wedding fever will finally pass.  When I get a new hobby, I suppose Smile

    I've definitely dropped way down but come in here in spurts...I've been having a really hard month, and oddly enough coming here still cheers me up, even though it is >9 mos since my wedding.

    I'm pretty much over anything wedding related but I can't seem to leave Weddingbee! I just like to keep up with how everyone else is doing.

    It's been 2 and a half months since the wedding, and I'll probably be on here for quite a while longer. I love all things wedding, the women on this board are fantastic, and it's nice to help a new crowd of brides-to-be.

    I'm thinking probably a couple months after the wedding.  Then I can focus on other things.

    My wedding is in a week and a half and everything is pretty much set, so I find myself coming to weddingbee less and less. Not because I haven't loved it, but my head is definitely shifting from planning to getting ready to just enjoying the day and the honeymoon. I've gotten tons of help here, but I find that reading about planning tends to stress me out a bit...guess I'm scared of second guessing my plans : )

    I plan to be around for a while yet as well!  I feel like I got so much out of the boards (advice and suggestions and encouragement) I nhave to stay and pay it back!

    I love being able to offer a perspective on here and even though it harder to keep up withthe bee bloggers, there are still so many great stories on here!

    If I am addicted, I won't quit, lol. Unless if my internet fails or my pc crashes, hahaha. I would much rather be addicted here, than smoking or drinking, which I have no part of.
