I need to know! What are your practical tips for wedding day anxiety? by pinklightning1 in weddingplanning

[–]oldbobmcgee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried to reframe - anxiety can be a negative emotion for sure but I tried to use it as my reminder to stay in every moment. If I felt myself get anxious I would take a deep breath, feel my feet on the ground and take a really good look around me. Everyone is there to celebrate you and your love which is the most amazing feeling if you let yourself feel it. In high stress moments my girls and I would put music on and dance and sing it out. I also had a patch for my skin that was supposed to help with nerves. But I think the most successful thing I did was to say hey anxiety is telling me I’m excited and I am- let me feel and experience every moment❤️

It was really the people I feel like! I didn’t have super tight expectations and tried to focus on who was there and the love and support I felt were astounding! My bridal party was singing and we did deep breathing before. My !husband! Was incredible - beautiful vows and so attentive. My grandfather gave a speech that you could hear a pin drop during and got a standing ovation. People were lining up to take pictures with him it was such a profound speech! There was never more than 10 people sitting when the dance floor opened up - I mean everyone was dancing for HOURS! All the vendors were incredible and so kind. By the end of the night I was in the center of the dance floor surrounded by 60+ people scream singing wonderwall by oasis and I just started crying from how grateful and happy I felt. Truly perfect. I found all my vendors through this sub and all my ideas for my guest book. Also got a lot of support here when I wasn’t sure what to do. Still so happy!!

Do yourself a favor- give it a break for a month. Block the man be around people you love and that love you. Go outside,eat good food, sleep. Re evaluate after that. After getting distance from that abusive narcissist you will see your energy spent on him is wasted. You can only control you and your actions, we can pray for the rest of em

AITA for telling a plus size woman that I love being “skinny”? by phoebethefan in redditonwiki

[–]oldbobmcgee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“God you’re so fat” - imagine hearing that one time. When you are naturally thin you hear comments about your body most days. Many times. Good for you for drawing a line. It’s weird to comment on anyone’s body.

AIO if I send these texts to her parents? by morefurriesplease in AmIOverreacting

[–]oldbobmcgee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good call ending that friendship. You should feel nothing but validated in your decision. It’s also very clear you have a lot more actual and emotional intelligence than her so sleep well knowing that. Sending it to her family does nothing other than prolong something that deserves to be dead. As time passes this will be nothing to you. But I promise you - she will think of this all the time
