To find it really difficult to get remotely excited about friends getting married when they already have DC with that person?

[CookiesFromTheCookieJar]

Anyone else?

[Floggingmolly]

Yes.

[MrsJayy]

Anyone else what ?

[Lilaclily]

Yabu

I am not exactly "excited" about any wedding.

Being pleased for someone and thinking it is nice - whether they have children is irrelevant.

[NotStoppedAllDay]

I don't get excited about weddings full stop!!

[acquiescence]

Yabu! My best friend is getting married this year to her long term partner. It is lovely, the children and involved and it makes it all the more special.

Are you religious or just very traditional and think that marriage should come before procreation?

[AlmostAJillSandwich]

So you expect everyone to get married before having a child, and that weddings are solely intended as a promise to have children?

I personally love it when people who have kids together decide to get married. They've done one-off the most stressful, exhausting, relationship-testing things and still want to spend the rest of their lives together - what's not brilliant about that?

[Dontactlikeyouknowme]

I'm sure they don't care whether you are excited or not.

[Mamabear14]

I was going to type a ranty answer but I'm just going with YABU.

[LaContessaDiPlump]

A bit. But I paste a smile on and act excited for them, because that is the nice thing to do and they'd be a bit crestfallen if I didn't treat their life event like the big thing it is.... to them.

[Trills]

It sounds as if you have a particular vision of what a wedding "should" be.

[MadMags]

Anyone else...???

[JCo24]

What?
So you only get excited about a marriage if there is a chance of children happening afterwards? Are you usually so concerned about the aftermath of people engaging in coitus?

[Bambambini]

It's not the same if they have been living together for years and have kids. Still happy for them and happy to celebrate the occasion though. Been to a very small simple wedding like this and it was lovely.

[EssentialHummus]

I agree with pigs actually. Plus I'm a sucker for a good party.

[kenology]

Eh?

Either you get excited about weddings or you don't, surely whether they already have children has nothing to do with it?

[Dontactlikeyouknowme]

I'm always excited for a party.

[kel1493]

I would be happy for a friend getting married, regardless of if they have children or not.
Personally I wanted to be married before I had children, but I don't think it matters either way generally. It's just what I wanted

[MrsJayy]

I had a child before my wedding people came smiled had a nice day and went home likeall weddings go

[Honeyandfizz]

Nope just you.

[scoobydooagain]

can't say I get excited about any wedding, nice for the couple but really that's about it.

[Bigbertha123]

YAB totally U, not very nice at all.

[StealthPolarBear]

Well you must be a barrel of laughs
