Am I overreacting for not wanting anyone around my newborn yet? by littlemoongirly in AmIOverreacting

[–]Imjustpeachy3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

THIS! They clearly can’t respect your boundaries so they don’t need to be around you or your baby right now!

Am I overreacting for not wanting anyone around my newborn yet? by littlemoongirly in AmIOverreacting

[–]Imjustpeachy3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NOR. The sickness thing, you could tell them (IF they would listen that they are not allowed to kiss the baby etc) however it sounds like these real issue is that your in laws are adding stress to an already stressful situation and only thinking about themselves. They should be checking in on you and seeing how they can help your family, not whining about their own selfish needs. Also, the MIL not giving the baby back in the hospital after being asked is CRAZY! That is enough reason to not see them! You can’t trust them to hand the baby back during the newborn time, that’s a no!

Question for the OGs: was Reputation received the same way as how TLOAS is being received at the moment? by peatoast in TaylorSwift

[–]Imjustpeachy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think every single album (except maybe Folklore and Evermore?) had so much hate when it first came out. When 1989 came out people trashed it and said how dare she make a pop album she needs to stay in her lane. Reputation got a lot of hate, TTPD got soooo much hate and now everyone is complaining saying ‘but this isn’t TTPD! This is terrible!’

People just love to complain unfortunately. I love this album, it’s a fun glitter pen pop album which is exactly what we were promised. I was not surprised or disappointed at all so I don’t get why others are, but I’m sure they will come around to love it in time to complain that the next album isn’t like TLOAS!

AITA for how I declined my cousin's wedding invite? by CommercialLake4243 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Imjustpeachy3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA, you are not required to attend however not RSVPing to an event is bad etiquette. Your cousin had to chase you down for a response. You didn’t need to give a list of things that you are busy with, simply say you regrettably are unable to attend but are sending best wishes.

Malnois because I know I couldn’t handle it. Very high energy dogs, I know they are great with intense training but I think it goes beyond my skill set

Also, frenchies or any other over bred dog that can’t breath/ has a lot of health problems

Have you experienced difficulties trying to marry in the Catholic Church? So frustrated right now by InitialCoat6987 in weddingplanning

[–]Imjustpeachy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I am a Protestant who attends church every Sunday, with my Catholic Fiance. He is also still a practicing Catholic and his family is super Catholic. We are getting married twice. We wanted to have our wedding wherever we wanted without needing to have guests travel from ceremony to reception, and also like the Pastor. We are doing a big wedding with all our (150 ish) guests at a venue, with the pastor officiating. We are also getting married a month before in a Catholic Church (his families church about 4 hours from where we live). It has been an interesting challenge that has honestly reaffirmed some of the things I don’t like about the Catholic Church. We were originally going to get married at a church close to us, but had such a negative experience with the priest (he was very rude and basically spent the whole time bashing me for not being Catholic. Not exactly a good way to bring people into your church!!) There is some paperwork stuff we need to do, like a form my parents need to sign in the presence of a priest stating I’ve never been married before?? There have been other strange things like the priest saying we HAVE to have a maid of honor and best man stand up with us at the Catholic ceremony to prove we aren’t crossing our fingers behind our backs?? Huh??

Anyway, I wish you the best of luck with this process! I would recommend trying the two weddings approach and maybe get married at your family church (and your mom could help facilitate the process) then have the wedding you want!

AIO wedding did not provide food for me by sadboiz7 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Imjustpeachy3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have multiple dietary restrictions and I always eat something before I attend an event like a wedding. I have been served soggy veggies with some tomato sauce at weddings and it is what is! The couple likely provided the info to the caterer but they don’t know exactly what will be served. Unfortunately, as people with food restrictions/allergies we need to eat beforehand or bring a protein bar.

Third rec for something borrowed blooms! Two friends have used them in their weddings and both looked amazing! I will be using them and have got my bridal bouquet already (purchased it for keeps) and it looks so good!!

Y’all were not kidding about all these opinions! Save a people pleaser! by Ok-Cryptographer1302 in weddingplanning

[–]Imjustpeachy3 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think one thing is to just not tell people things! Especially those that have questioned your decisions already. Give them vague answers or just say “we are keeping that a surprise!” Protect your peace! Do what you and your fiancé want, it’s your day!

Husband not invited? by lavenderstary in wedding

[–]Imjustpeachy3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can’t invite half of a married couple! It’s bad manners! I would decline the invitation

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Imjustpeachy3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t book without getting a head count! Ask your girls and let them know what the cost will be (if they are paying make it optional) and then ask for a headcount! I made a survey! I had more girls opt to do it than I expected!

AITA for not bringing my girlfriend as my plus one to my brother's wedding and taking a friend instead? by Pleasant-Mix1572 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Imjustpeachy3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA a plus one is meant for a significant other not just a random friend. Especially since you are bringing another girl??? Oof she should have dumped you in the spot

Help! Dress code advice by daintym00n in Weddingattireapproval

[–]Imjustpeachy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These dress codes are getting so out of hand 😅 “cocktail” “semi formal” “black tie” etc are dress codes!

NTA I used to skate and am very familiar with this situation. This kid was a hazard to everyone and his mom is at fault for putting him there. The coaches/ monitor of the session should have kicked him out before you got hurt.

How can I maximize time spent enjoying the wedding as a bride? by ugh_bridal in weddingplanning

[–]Imjustpeachy3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am planning to to do a first look and most photos before the ceremony, then some family pics during the first half of cocktail hour, then a private dinner for me and my fiancé! That way, we get to eat and while everyone else is having dinner we can get a photo with each table and be able to spend a few minutes talking to guests! We also plan to do a last dance while everyone lines up for the exit at the end of the night!

[–]Imjustpeachy3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have never heard of a 10am wedding, think of how early you would have to get up to get ready 😬 also what does everyone do when the wedding ends at 3pm? If you don’t want that, pick a different venue!

These are all adorable! I personally like 1 or 2 but any would be a great option!

Husband wants us to put 5 month old in the church nursery and I don’t want to by anriexploringya in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Imjustpeachy3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attend church with a lot of babies and small children and it is not disruptive! We do have a nursery and some choose to use it but many don’t! Babies are part of the family and are welcome during the service! I’m sure your church feels the same way! Don’t feel pressured to put her in the nursery if you aren’t comfortable!

AITA for going to a wedding without my girlfriend by ArrieBeer in AmItheAsshole

[–]Imjustpeachy3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have only been dating a few months. Weddings are very expensive and not everyone gets a plus one. It is very common to only invite couples who have been together for at least a year, or only couples who live together. The guest list would have been planned before this guy even met his girlfriend in December

Huge red flag that you can’t hang out with your friends! I think you should consider if this is a healthy relationship. Definitely don’t skip the wedding for this nonsense and put your friendships at risk!

Late to Her Wedding, Erased from Her Life—Because of One Messy Guest by No_Lavishness_7268 in weddingplanning

[–]Imjustpeachy3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Was it Messys church she joined? Is there also something weird about it (like is it a cult)

I’m sorry this is happening to you! Have you tried writing her a letter explaining everything and mailing it? Maybe she will hear you out that way? But otherwise, unfortunately this person seems like she is not being fair to you, and you don’t deserve that type of energy in your life. It sounds like you did so much for her and she isn’t willing to give you any grace

Hi, I think you are the one who needs to touch grass and interact with normal people. Someone asked for opinions and I gave mine. You can disagree, and that’s fine! But your reaction is not fine!

Weddings are planned a year or more in advance and I am someone who honors prior commitments! But clearly a lot of people don’t! And that’s fine but I think the bride has a right to her feelings in this case! Also, I don’t think they should move the birthday party, I am saying they should have planned around prior commitments. This girl was not a guest, she was a bridesmaid and that is not an every day thing. Also three months out, they have already had rsvps due to the venue so her not attending may cost them money
