Dear Co-worker

I did not invite you to my wedding reception for one simple reason - I DO NOT LIKE YOU.  You have irritated me with your constant singing, talking, bragging, self obssesed chat for over 2 years now and I've had enough.  You have admitted (and I'm not that stupid to have not noticed) that you have never liked me, so WHY then are you raging at other co-workers because you didn't get an invite to my wedding.  My FI dislikes you as well and dislikes your treatment of me over the last 2 and a half years.  You are rude, arrogant, obnoxious and get in everyone's face.  STOP talking to people about my wedding!  Admit that you are upset that you are not invited to the wedding as you are about the only one and cannot believe someone in the office dislikes you.  Well live with it because I hate you and contrary to what you might think - Parties DO go off with a bang without you there! You are not necessay to the proceedings OKAY.

I am looking for another job principally because I cannot WAIT to get away from you!!!

P.s You are 63 years of age.  GROW THE F**K UP!!!

@Just_Squeeze: OMG I thought my FMIL was bad!

@soyjoy222: :( How awful.

Love this, although I am sad that the MIL's, co-workers and "frien-emies" involved in these posts have acted horribly enough to warrant such letters.

Dear Best Friend,

I hurt everytime someone tells me that you aren't giving/supporting/planning events the way I was when you were getting married.  I keep defending you even though you really haven't done anything to deserve it.  I hate how I feel when I defend you and I hate that everyone tells me I'm an idiot for doing so.

Dear Mom and F-MIL,

I'm tired of your opinions.  I'm tired of your "how about this?" suggestions.  Don't say my wedding day is My Day because we all know its about you guys and you are both slowly making me resentful.

If you think you will have this much say in my life when FH and I get married and have children, you'd better think again.

Also - F-MIL - please stop comparing me to your daughter's shot-gun wedding.  The differences are astounding, including a ten year age difference, my full-time, well paying job and the sheer fact that I am a willing participant, unlike your own daughter.  Also, I understand that you planned her entire wedding but I will not let you do that.

Phew!  that felt good!

@soyjoy222: How right you are!  What a nasty, ugly evil witch she is. 

@Zinzerena: LMAO!  I have had dreams of this for a while.  Goes somthing like this *bitch slap* *crack* *dusts hands, feels better, heads off for brand new job*

Hmm, I'll bite. 

Dear church ladies and other assorted busybodies, 

Why is it that all of you start pouring out of the woodwork to be my friend once I get engaged, even though most of you have not spoken to me for 8 years? Where were you when I needed some support last year after going through a crisis? 

STOP being smarmy sweet to my face, telling me that it is my wedding and that I can do whatever I want, and then being snarky behind my back about how your feelings are hurt because you, person x, person y, and person z weren't invited, how you can't believe I'm not getting married in my hometown even though NONE of my family live here and BOTH of my fiance's families live in the country where we're getting married (the nerve, right?), how I'm spending too much money on a wedding (even though it's all coming from a super-generous FFIL, not any of you), or how I didn't invite my cousins who I have loathed since the age of 5. Yes, I realize that my envelopes are black. I'm sorry you feel like it looks like a funeral invitation--personally, I like them.  Obviously you do NOT really think it is my wedding, otherwise you guys wouldn't be freaking out.  Most of you didn't even know I was engaged until some other tactless moron waved their save-the-date in front of you at church. You are a group of vindictive cows, and I don't care how long you have known my parents, I do not want any of you to be at my wedding. I can't tell you how glad I am to start over somewhere new. And no, the fact that you support my parents as missionaries does NOT mean that you are entitled to know how much my wedding is costing. I say again, you are a bunch of vindictive, selfish cows who need to get over yourselves and get lives. 

Love, 

UK

@UK Bride: Mormons?

@skyeatnight: nope, good ol' fashioned small-town protestants 

@UK Bride: REALLY!  Wow.  Religion doesn't make you a nicer person obviously. 

@skyeatnight: LOL, no, religion doesn't do anything for a person. I think that relationship with God does, but a lot of these ladies mistake one for the other, sadly. 

@UK Bride: Self righteous people obviously. I know Mormons...horrid people with narrow minds (and these are family)

@Zinzerena: I didn't realise co-workers were in a position to demand!  Surely we have Unions for this sort of thing lol. Why must we tread a carpet for 8-10 hours a day with these people.  That's one of life's little nasties.

@Zinzerena: Yep, my FSIL is EXACTLY the same.  This is what I am desperate to say to her.....might actually do it one day :-/  Have kids and take responsibility for them!!

@Zinzerena: Ugh, I know what you're talking about! And then a lot of these co-workers expect to be invited once they know you're getting married, right? Seriously, the world is a sad, sad place sometimes... 

@murmur: What was too sad :-(

@UK Bride: Yep you are so right.  The "bully" in my work hasn't spoken to me for 3 weeks now because of no invite.  Demented.  She doesn't like me but doesn't want left out.  Weirdo and a little creepy.

@skyeatnight: I know, right?? I swear, some people have the social grace of a baboon. As a people pleaser who has a hard time saying no, this kind of scenario has caused so much anxiety! I think I've probably aged 10 years in the last 6 months... thank goodness I'm only planning on getting married ONCE!
