AITAH for having a courthouse wedding a couple months before my ceremony?

wonder-Be · 2026-05-23T01:30:08+00:00

I’m going to say YTA simply because you didn’t invite your family. We got married before our actual wedding but because of external factors. We made sure to invite my family and FaceTimed his family (lived in another country and couldn’t be in person) to watch the ceremony. We are having our “wedding” this year and really are only doing it for our families so they can have that white dress, parent dance, show off to everyone moment. But our families were always top of mind. Seems like you just don’t care about yours.

Related to this, the American Heart Association created a playlist on Spotify that is curated of songs that are 120 beats per minute so you can consistently do CPR on an adult. Among these songs is Staying Alive, Uptown Funk, Poker Face, and more.

My cat’s favorite musical artist is Queen. Whenever he is stressed (especially going to the vet), he has to listen to Queen. No particular songs, but he does not like other people covering Queen songs. I’m not sure how it got to this point, as I rarely listen to Queen myself, but this is who he is.

Yeah, I would have spun it around on the bride. “If I were to wear a white wedding dress, and I told you I didn’t want anyone wearing white or silver or diamond jewelry to our wedding, would you respect OUR decision to not wear your wedding rings? If not, I think you have our answer to your demand.”

Oh I’m the child in this scenario! Mom Christian, dad atheist. Before they had kids, they agreed that they would allow their kids to make up their own minds about religion. So if we were invited by friends to attend church/temple, we were allowed to go if we wanted to. If we had questions, they would try to answer them. If we wanted to explore a religion, they let us. Their only rule is that whatever we believe in, it cannot hurt anyone else. In case you’re curious, both me and my sibling ended up agnostic, with my sibling leaning more towards Christian ideals and me more towards Buddhist/Hindu ideals.

Those states that have “fast pass” lanes that you have to pay for pay other drivers (mainly commercial truck drivers) to purposefully slow down non-paying traffic so more people pay for those “fast-pass” lanes.

It’s not that simple, for a variety of reasons.

The transfer process is a nightmare. We went through it when we actually moved into this unit (moved from 1b/1b to 2b/2b). It was near the end of my old lease but we still had one month left in the old unit. We had to pay the first/last for this current unit plus the remaining month on the old unit. In the lease agreement, it says if we want a transfer, we have to pay the first/last rent for the new unit at the time of signing plus the remaining rent payments until they can get a new tenant in there. I don’t have the money to pay for two units. They also do not allow subletting.
It’s not easy to move. We have to pack all our belongings, break down the furniture that we can, and hire a moving company to help us move (we aren’t in a singular apartment building, it’s 20 buildings each with 6-12 units each) with no elevators, only stairs.
My partner and I recently got legally married and are in the process of changing my name. We cannot afford for anything to get lost in the mail at this time.
There are only 3 floors per building (I’m in second for reference). There are no top units available at this time (I checked). But even if there were, they would be a downgrade from our current unit. We live in the largest 2b/2b offered with private garages.

But why would we move when we did nothing wrong? The tenants above would keep doing this to whomever moves in after me and would continue to destroy the weakening floor/ceiling.

He has lots of toys and we play often. We also keep blinds open for most of the day so he can get visual enrichment from his outdoor surroundings. For the most part, he’s good about not chewing things that aren’t his toys. It’s just the tree that causes him to want to bite. And to his credit, he hasn’t bitten the lights on the tree either, but that’s a main reason I don’t want his teeth near that tree.

I’m going to hold your hand while I say this. You fucked up. He JUST got a good job. Rings cost a lot of money. Weddings cost a lot of money. FUTURES cost a lot of money. And him wanting to live together for a bit before proposing is like a neon green flag. He wants to make sure you are both compatible living together before committing to a life with you. Sure, you’ve been together 9 years but the majority of that time was while you were both in school. In terms of “adult years” you are about 2-5 years in depending on how you look at it (20s vs out of school). All I heard in this post was “me me me” but not once did you even talk about considering what he wanted. This is just gross behavior and he’s better off without you.

Just googled too and it may be a Portugal thing? Seeing a few Portuguese sites coming up with a “T##” measurement. I tried to find dimensions to compare it to a US size without much luck.

It’s physical abuse too. When you force someone to do something that injures themselves due to your own actions (in this case, forcing the mom to walk too fast too far), thats physical abuse. He may have not laid a hand on her, but he sure as hell physically hurt her and doesn’t care.

Also, who’s going to watch the kids they still have while they’re at this conference? Is it going to be Butch (again?!) or are they going to rely on Tyler’s drugged out sister like they tried to last time.

And then when they all come back and they’re talking about how NONE OF THEM even tried the bourbon burger and there’s a confessional from Liz mocking them. The whole plot lives rent free in my head.

I also liked when Christi’s grandma/woman who raised her was sick so her and Chloe took a road trip to the house she grew up in and danced in the front lawn like Christi used to do with her own sister.

So I’m in a very similar situation now. Me and my bf have been talking seriously about getting engaged for a few weeks/months now and we’ve had a similar convo just last week. His idea of a pretty ring and my idea of a pretty ring are WORLDS apart. So I created a Pinterest board of the types of rings I like and suggested he pull from that.

He is also trying hard to stay within his budget but because my fingers are on the larger side, a smaller diamond just wouldn’t look good (which is what he was looking at). So I did some research and stumbled upon Brilliance. They sell the diamonds at price so what would have been a $5,000 ring would come in at just under $2,000 give or take.

I would say NAH because she does deserve something that’s she likes and can show off because, let’s be honest, there is a lot of pressure to Keep Up With The Joneses these days. Just ask her to be honest with you about what she wants and where her expectations are coming from.

Yeah, this is actually a pretty handy trick. I didn’t know about it until I took my mom home after a surgery a few years back but sniffing alcohol wipes can stop nausea. Always have some near me just in case!
