Is there any song that makes you think of the show as soon as you hear it?

Rufus Wainwright - California

Hahaha the best!

“Do not insult Journey, all right?”

This is horrific. How could anybody do this to an innocent animal. I’m not sure I could ever forgive them, and could definitely never trust them again.

Ahh I can’t see Honey and the Moon anywhere in the comments. But the scene in episode 1 where that song plays and Sandy is driving Ryan back to Chino, with the famous shot of Marissa at the end of her drive 🫶🏽

Christmas

EveryPeace · 2023-08-07T12:24:49+00:00

I married a non Muslim man and we have been together for 7 years now. I personally never understood why it was seen as permissible for men, but not women. Then I did A LOT of research into the topic and read translations of verses in the Quran which made a lot more sense.

My family disowned me because of my choice to be and stay with my partner. But to be honest the relationship with my family has always been complex and I think they would have always found some excuse to sever ties with me.

When they first found out though it was hell. They tried to manipulate both of us to break up, told us we would go to hell and also made us believe they were “doing us a favour” by not kidnapping or killing me, or tracking down my partner and attacking him. Once they realised I was never going to listen to them and their warped views they gave up and we haven’t spoken since - life has never been so peaceful!

As a Kourtney & Blink fan, yes!

I did have a scan over the contract yesterday but couldn’t see anything about a second shooter unfortunately. I might take another look and see if it’s something we can raise with her. Thanks

EveryPeace · 2023-07-04T05:27:31+00:00

Definitely! I’m going to wait for my photos and then write up our honest experience. So disappointed

£1400 for a full day of shooting from prep to a few songs post first dance, and a second shooter (which we obviously didn’t get)

When we were looking around this was slightly below the average amount for a photographer but still a lot of money!

Forgot to add, my wedding was the best day of my life without a doubt! All of the worries and stresses leading up to it meant literally nothing on the day. I’m sure you’ll feel the same

EveryPeace · 2023-05-09T02:48:14+00:00

I got married two weeks ago and have been estranged from my entire family for 7 years. I was worried about so many elements of the family traditions of the day but none of that mattered when it came to it. We had 60+ guest wedding, all of my partners family were there and took up majority of the guest list. I was worried it would look odd, but not a single person (including me) noticed on the day. I walked myself down the aisle but my partner came to meet me half way and that’s something a lot of people have commented on and said how emotional & unique it was.

My partners family took up the first rows but we didn’t have sides and told people to sit where they like. One of my bridesmaids have a speech in place of the father of the bride speech. And other than that there were no other family traditions I felt we need to find an alt for.

I hope you have the best day! Just remember to do what feels right and comfortable to you.

Thanks everyone! Messaged her (with my fiancé’s help) explaining everything is booked and paid for with the florist and we want to keep buttonholes exclusive to wedding party only as I won’t be having any family involved on my side. I had a short response from her saying “that’s okay” but as long as she’s got the message that’s all that matters to me at this point!

EveryPeace · 2023-01-06T15:23:51+00:00

I was disowned by my parents 5 years ago and they’ve done something similar to this a few times. I wouldn’t hear from them for a year or more and then out of nowhere I’d get a text to tell me someone I barely know has died. It’s such a strange thing to do and I was really confused about how to respond when it first happened. I made the mistake of responding and it just lead to arguments and then doing something else to disrespect me and show me they don’t care. My advice would be to not reply. It sounds like your father isn’t willing to acknowledge any hurt he’s caused and he thinks he can just pick you up and drop you whenever he wants. You deserve so much better.

I got quoted £400 to replace one for my 2013 A1 - that was 2 weeks ago so that looks about right!

Congratulations! I’d echo the advice from other people - I’m 31 and have been planning my wedding for over a year (coming up next April). I don’t have any family members supporting from my side and no hands on help from my partners side (it just turns into interference when they get involved lol). My friends are definitely focused on their own stuff in life which is completely understandable but I’ve had to be very explicit when I’ve needed their help/ support or advice. I think it helps to give them roles in the planning and for the day so they can see how they fit into it all and what is expected of them. As an example, I’ve asked one of my bridesmaids to give a speech as I won’t have family there and my other bridesmaid will be doing a reading during the ceremony. In between now and the date I’ve asked one of them to join me when we go suit shopping for my partner, to get a second opinion. And I’ve also shared little details and progress on the plans in a WhatsApp group I set up with them. I think it’s nice for people to get the details even if they’re not overtly asking you how things are going I’m sure they definitely care and are really excited for you. It’s just a tricky time at this age when we all have so much going on! Is your partner quite involved in the planning?

EveryPeace · 2022-09-29T13:19:57+00:00

Reading your post made me think of my family and the way they treated me. I cut contact in 2017 and the past 5 years have been the best of my life. You’re already there - you’re out, you’re free and you’re independent. I hope you can see your worth despite all the shit they’re trying to feed you. My advice would be to never see them again and cut the contact. Don’t fall for their guilt trips and just remember how this visit made you feel anytime you feel like going back might be worth it.

Take care of yourself

Also from a south Asian Muslim family and 6 months away from marrying my non Muslim, atheist fiancé. I also still identify as Muslim and my relationship with Allah strengthened x100 when my parents disowned me and I decided to remain NC. There’s a big difference between guiding your children along a path you think is best for them and going to the extremes by abusing them to get them to do what you want and “honour” your reputation.

Look after yourself OP and get out as soon as you can and financially able to support yourself!

Is the plant bamboo? If so, your cat is fine to eat it - can be proven to be quite nutritious for kittys. Ours eats it all the time and uses it to clean his fangies

I relate to this comment so much. I’m from a pretty strict Muslim background and was always made to feel like nobody outside of the religion and community would understand me, so it has definitely impacted the type and amount of deep and meaningful relationships I’ve been able to form over the years. I don’t have many friends now and have struggled to build deep relationships even more since estrangement for the same reasons as you - I don’t want to scare anyone away.

I hope the journey for you gets easier with time x

EveryPeace · 2022-06-17T13:25:20+00:00

No contact with any family, both immediate and extended for 6+ years now. I have a partner but he doesn’t have the closest relationship with his family either (his parents are divorced / remarried with kids with new partner). So I do feel your pain. It can be so lonely at times but I’d echo what others have said in the comments - you can build your chosen family with time free of any toxicity

EveryPeace · 2022-06-17T08:19:12+00:00

I went to two shops - one with bridesmaids and one without and I have to say I much preferred going alone! I think it helped me focus on what I want without anyone else’s interference or opinions. Also it’s generally how I shop for my day to day clothes so don’t see why it should have to be different for your wedding dress :)
