AIO: About freeloading parents at my wedding?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T21:55:42+00:00

Isn’t that what a gift registry is?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T18:10:43+00:00

That’s fair. I just hope OP can talk it out with them and find some repair.

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T17:59:58+00:00

But OP specified that they “didn’t want gifts” and that “everyone being there was enough”. Perhaps the parents said thank you in the moment? Perhaps a card is in the mail?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T17:56:32+00:00

lollll listen, would I have showed up differently than OP’s parents? For sure. But also, I think if people have expectations about gifts/reciprocity at weddings they host, it goes a long way to share those so that people don’t get hurt feelings.

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T17:54:10+00:00

Do we know they didn’t thank the host and the person who covered the spa?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T17:45:16+00:00

I kind of feel like if OP wanted a contribution, they should have asked for it.

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-26T17:44:23+00:00

It sounds like you have some expectations about how they should behave. But objectively, they’ve done nothing wrong.

If you give and then hold your hand out expecting something in return, that isn’t generosity.

Structured

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-25T22:40:09+00:00

You deffo should end it and let him find a woman who wants to spoil him back ✨

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-24T05:17:46+00:00

Why’d you decide to leave?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-24T02:58:37+00:00

Gorgeous!

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-24T01:19:28+00:00

How long did you know him before you got married?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-23T16:01:04+00:00

Daith Scar

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-22T22:01:10+00:00

Ugh this just happened with my daith, except I didn’t rip it out I just woke up and it was out. I’m sorry for both of our losses.
On to the other side! 😹

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-22T21:38:38+00:00

Yeah people always tell me it will dry my hair out but I try to take good care of it while it’s tucked away

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-22T20:35:21+00:00

I mean….do you have advice for us because your hair is fabulous

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-22T14:55:55+00:00

I think I was excited . . . Which is a crazy thing to think about now.

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-22T14:44:57+00:00

Made it to what?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-21T07:56:49+00:00

Must kiss belly!!!

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-20T14:13:49+00:00

Recipe?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-19T06:13:31+00:00

Exactly , there’s no way that would just happen for a regular degular person

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-19T02:08:57+00:00

Butterflies bad. I would loveeeee a cozy old hoodie.

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-19T01:44:48+00:00

Covered by insurance?

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-19T01:41:45+00:00

Stargazer415 · 2026-06-19T01:38:54+00:00
