A very close friend of mine from high school is getting married next weekend. I couldnt have imagined getting married without her being involved in almost every aspect, but she hasnt wanted me to be involved in ANYTHING. She literally asked me out to brunch to break the news to me that I wouldnt be one of her bridesmaids. Shes having her 2 sisters and 2 friends from her out of state college. I was really hurt, but tried not to show it. Although I wasnt asked to be involved I was asked to FIVE events: kitchen shower, bridal shower, lingerie shower, romance shower, and bachelorette party (long weekend, 5 hours away, cost me about $350).
I told her I could help her with ANYTHING, just call. She did ask for my advice about the bachelorette party, as we we were going to my college town, and she had never been. I labored over 2 emails of ideas and she took NONE of my ideas. (In fact, I warned her against staying so far away from the party spot due to a college football game. She got stuck in traffic and was over an hour and a half late to her own party. She cried!)
She recently bought a house about 2 miles from my house. I have bought her gifts for her new house at these showers, but have yet to be invited over to see it. I was not invited to the rehearsal dinner (I couldnt believe it), but Im expected to sit through the hour long catholic ceremony and BOTH receptions. I also realized that after these receptions, I dont even know enough about this person anymore to know if shes going on a honeymoon!
This person who I loved has strangely cut me out of her life after her engagement- to a man I helped set her up with, no less!! I have decided that shes not going to get anymore of my money or my time. Our other friends say that I will deeply regret it, but I have decided that Im not going to the wedding. I think Ill regret it if I go because my feelings will just get that much more hurt. The irony of all of this is that she will get her feelings hurt when she sees I didnt go.
Am I being stubborn and irrational?? I feel so used.
okay im not that close with this girl but i do like her, not sure how she feels..
Anyway i asked her if she was going to this festival this weekend because id love to see her! Anyway she replied telling me something like “yeah i planned on it sometime this weekend! i will let you know. how have you been?”
So obviously she didnt actually say shed hang out with me idk but from what i said i assume she knows i wanna meet her there since i told her i wanna see her ^__^
This was Wed, i told her id get up with her friday since the festival is saturday.
What do you think i should say to her to confirm rather we are hanging out and meeting up there or not?
Well for me, I’m going to a wedding dance, and going to have a blast with my friends! Were gunna beg for alcohol, then sell it to the teens that can’t get any. (small towns, lmfao) And I’m planning on getting my first kiss *fingers crossed* ! Then to top it , I’m staying at a friends house!
What are you weekend plans?
My ex husband gets every other weekend. Now suddenly he’s getting married, last minute, and says his wedding is planned in 3 weeks on MY weekend with the children. He says he wants them to be in the wedding. I think he should have planned his wedding on one of his weekends and am wondering if I don’t have to let the children go.
nice place to have our bachlorette party. However I am not 21 and everyone else is. Are there any good ideas or places to go and still have a good time? or am I going to have to sit out? We were planning on drinking in the room and playing games first then going out.

It starts Saturday morning when he has arranged to have my mother pick up on son to watch him for the weekend. He bought them passes to the zoo, movie tickets and packed up all of his things so that he is ready to go. Once babby is off we will be whisked away to a spa weekend. Our first treatment is a two hour couples massage with a hot towel and lavender rub and a foaming scalp massage. After a soak in his and her mineral baths we get to enjoy a private sauna, steam room, hot-tub and rain water shower. We then take a brief stroll in a private garden (naked or in our organic cotton bathrobes depending on our comfort level) and back to our private spa room to enjoy an exfoliating body scrub and his and her facials. Pre-dinner cocktails and chocolate covered strawberries will take place on our private deck over looking the man-made waterfalls. We will dine by fireplace on grain-fed seared veal and organic handpicked roasted vegetables while toasting with fine red wine and gorging ourselves on dark chocolate torte with raspberry demi grace. After retreating back to our room, where our 800-thread count Egyptian cotton sheets will be turned down and awaiting our return, we will make love (missionary position) by the candlelight of 84 (the number of months we’ve been married) white votive candles flagged by hydrangeas and white roses (our wedding flowers). We will collapse exhausted from our love making in each others arms and hold each other until the first glimpse of sunlight awakens us. In the morning we will be greeted with eggs benedict, fresh sliced fruit and Kona coffee on our private deck. No cell phones, no television, no internet of any kind. Just each other and pure relaxing luxury.
So my question is…all this romance and crap is making me sick to my stomach…not to mention all the rich food and pampering! What type of antacid should I pack and what can I possibly talk about with him for 36 hours? No internet??? *whines* FML!
Yeah yeah, it’s Easter.. haha
Friday we had a fabulous dinner; roast beef, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, steamed veg, butternut squash, girkins, pickled beets and onions, olives, cheese.. it was delicious <3 oh, and gravy. I had a whole plate full an I was pretty full. About an hour after that, I had a teeny bit of cheesecake ( like a fork full ) and a huge piece of carrot cake with cream cheese icing that my mom made <3 It was fantastic 
Anyway, I was so so so full afterwards.. I felt sick, haha. but it was really, really good.
Today, I ate really well and exercised for about an hour or so. We ended up having spaghetti for dinner, so lots of pasta, and parmesan/marble cheese! It was really awesome too.
Tomorrow is actually Easter. I'm not going to exercise, and I KNOW that I'm going to pig out.
I'm planning on making homemade sushi and having miso soup, my mom's going to have cheese and crackers out, homemade bruschetta.. and then of course it is Easter so we are getting a load of chocolate! I AM planning on eating a lot of it; I know it.
my question is… Is this okay? I normally don't eat like this.. I am a fairly active 16 year old girl ( not overweight in the slightest). And I love Easter, and chocolate, and SUSHI!!!!!!! Is it okay to pig out majorly like this every once in a while? I'm going to exercise Monday, Wed, Thursday, Friday, and probably next weekend. I may go for a bike ride tomorrow.
Will this entire weekend pig out make me gain a bunch of weight? I really want to enjoy it and not be super anal about food.. :/
We are going camping and white water river rafting and am looking for suggestions of games to play with the bride-to-be.
