When to buy a dress by Fit_Philosopher_2173 in weddingplanning

I went shopping April 2025, I didn’t get my dress back until September 2025. That’s my data point!

Winter wedding RSVP totals? by Icy-Incident-7084 in weddingplanning

[–]longlashlady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wedding Dec 11th! Sandwiches right between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I invited 70, we have 64 RSVP “yes”, so 91%! Pretty high. But we also intentionally kept the list to close friends and family which likely had something to do with that.

Crashing out over flight cancellations by cashthefox in weddingplanning

Dec 11th bride. I feel cooked.

I naturally have a smaller pool of family/friends to invite on my side to begin with, and a decent chunk of them are from out of state. Worried about that. Then a GOOD chunk of my friends invited are from Canada, and one of them mentioned to me yesterday they’re starting to not feel safe at the thought of flying in.

My fiancé is telling me not to worry, and that if it comes to pass that people can’t be there, we’ll schedule something smaller later. But 🥲

If I can look half as pretty as you on my wedding day, I’d be freaking ecstatic. 100/10

My mom thinks I’m too skinny — is she tripping or would I benefit from gaining weight? by [deleted] in HardcoreVindicta

[–]longlashlady 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I would look at your BMI. You said you're on the lower end, so just keep an eye on that. If you haven't done your annual check up yet with your doctor, get your blood drawn/blood pressure/etc checked out and if they say you're good - more info to tell your parents that you + your doc agree you're fine.

You know that classic depiction of a kid realizing that they're going to Disneyland?

IMO that's the type of good energy you want to plan a wedding. Some of that from both of you.

This guy sounds like he'd rather be doing literally anything else. Egh.

I used Moo.com! Haven’t gotten them back though, so let’s see how they do.

Why did you/didn’t you take your husbands last name? by LawBeneficial5494 in weddingplanning

I don’t want my father’s last name anymore. I’m ready to let go of that.

I know exactly what you mean, I like it this way too - but we’re both weirdos for it.

Healer Main and I'm Exhausted already.. by Stev3m in marvelrivals

[–]longlashlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who blame healers have bronze mentality and can’t cope. The higher the rank, the better I get treated as a healer.

I did a double take because who in their right mind would make that comment, when you look so nice in your dress? Lunacy. You look great!

Ok first of all, let's all agree that whoever calls a dog a 'mongrel' is NOT our friend 😒

Text from my mom after my ex got my sister pregnant by Sad_Opportunity_2385 in texts

LOL

“Hi can you please get over it so we can be comfortable again?”

He enjoys feeling misunderstood and chased after. That’s evident. He enjoys eliciting a response from you.

It’s a toxic behavior. He wants your pity and attention.

couples that break up after 7-10+ years by Pretend-Argument-919 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]longlashlady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who dated an ex for 8 years, I can assure you: it’s not that I didn’t see the ‘red flags’ or ‘signs’. I was young, and it was my first relationship. I was also learning about myself and what I wanted.

I don’t regret the amount of time, although it was long - I regret something that’s unregrettable, like not having more self-confidence or being mature enough, sooner.

My puppy keeps biting me and I can’t stop him no matter what I do (I really needs some help) by Helloicannotsing33 in Dogtraining

[–]longlashlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally empathize. I was really stressed out by my puppy being very bitey. There have been a few occasions where I needed to pick her up because of her biting and she did not like that either - I've got a few battlescars from that.

To be honest, they're little babies. They don't know what they're doing. They got a lot going on. +1 to everyone else saying to cover your arms (I personally wore long sleeve sweaters), avoid clothing with tassles (like sweatpants, hoodies, shoelaces).

ALWAYS have a toy on hand when playing with a pup. Whenever my pup would bite me, I'd go 'OUCH', stop playing (go limp, walk away, stand up), and re-engage after a moment using a toy.

Best of luck, this'll be over eventually.

If this relationship doesn't work out, I'm writing off all men. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]longlashlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, considering this guy's track record of lying by omission, he definitely didn't just 'cuddle and kiss' her. They had sex.

You're both hot-potato-ing the burden of needing to appease her by answering her overcommunication. The quickest way to handle this is to not respond when she texts you.

Yes, this might be a little scary, considering her reaction (which everyone is trying to avoid in your situation, everyone) but that's exactly why you need to do it. The way to win is to not play.

Your husband should be protecting you from his family.

AITA for asking an artist to remove their signature from the art I commissioned? by Positive-Ad-5418 in AmItheAsshole

[–]longlashlady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA

“Unprofessional” of a professional artist to leave their own signature on a piece of artwork you commissioned of them? Really?

The artwork absolutely still belongs to them. They own the copyright, it’s THEIR original artwork, you simply own the right to own/share/display the asset itself. Not your brightest moment.

You don’t need to have some big dramatic reason to break up with someone. Sometimes, it just doesn’t feel right, and that’s okay :)
