    I just got a message on Facebook from the friend who's been sort of catty and competitive saying that her mom and sister think we changed our date to "beat" her in getting married. Yeah effing right. Considering the somewhat bitchy phone call I got from her last night ("WHY did you change your date, NOW?"), I'm guessing this is her thought, too.

    I replied that no, marriage is not a competition--we're doing what's best for us right now and that everyone needs to just chill out.

    Glad I'm hopping off the wedding-planning crazy train soon! Jeez.

    Wanted to share the luls, Bees! I can't believe some people.

    She just came clean and admitted that she was very pissed off and annoyed when we changed our date because "it was literally right after" they switched theirs (actually, it was more like three weeks after they bumped theirs up to before ours, so I could say the same thing to her!) Also, she said again that she's been with her fiance for six years and deserves to get married first. Whatev.

    Lol, I'm just ignoring it now. I apologized for making her feel bad and she sent a two-word message "No big." but I'm still sensing some pissiness.

    Sorry, but it sounds like your friend is really a frenemy.... If it were me I would have messaged back and told her that because she's such an selfish, unkind person who will bring negative vibes to my wedding, that I am un-inviting her.

     

    Seriously... how can people be so immature and petty.

    I have a similar friend...we moved our wedding up to one month before theirs (not even on purpose!) and they freaked.

    Needless to say it ended with our FI's throwing punches (I know I know ladies my life is drama!) and now we're not friends :(

    Hopfully your situation pans out a lot better. Some people just think its alllll about "ME." Just stay positive!

    Then why is she so worried about it? As though your going and getting married before her will actually affect her life at all? 

    I'm so sorry you're having to put up with her nonsense.

    Ok is this the same friend you wrote about sending out the facebook invites, and the one about calling the friendship quits, and the one you don't if you feel very happy for? Maybe it's time to just unfriend this person completely, because it just sounds like a lot of drama for you.

    You should say, "You're absolutely right. We changed our date to beat you, and you know what? WE'RE GOING TO WIN!"

    If she's stressing you out this much, honestly I'd just ignore her.

    @JenniMichele: lol

     

    @mrs.peters.to.be: That's sad.

     

    @Statutory Grape: I would've de-friended and deleted her phone number by now. Toxic people are a drain. For what it's worth, since she is being so ugly and rude, at least you pissed her off.

    @trugem: True that. But I was nice to her and apologized for making her feel that we were trying to "beat' her. Hah. I feel like we're playing "Chicken" or something.
