To be pissed of my brother is getting married on our anniversary?

[Lily15]

The title says it all really.Brother and fiancée are getting married overseas next month but are legally getting hitched here first in a registry office.Only just told me when. On my 2nd wedding anniversary. Bit pissed off. Would you be?

No, I wouldn't mind. I don't think anyone celebrates wedding anniversaries except the couple themselves, do they? And when you're having your Silver etc, then they will still be a couple of years behind.

no - why should it bother you? You can have a double celebration or you can ignore it. Plenty more things to be pissed off about IMO. I would be surprised if my siblings even knew the date of my wedding anniversary

Not really no. Sorry.

I usually forget about our anniversary every year, as does my husband. So no, I wouldn't be upset. Is it really such a big deal? Could you not celebrate another day?

Why? Sorry but it's only your 2nd anniversary so don't get what the problem is.

I probably wouldn't be bothered. Anniversaries are only special to those celebrating it unless you both intend on having massive celebrations every year, in which case you'd have a problem

YABU

i'd be flattered actually.

Wouldn't bother me.

Did they remember that it was your wedding anniversary? What did they say when you told them?

No. Because in my experience, the only people that remember wedding anniversaries are the bride and groom.

YABU because you dont' "own" the date. And being 2 years adrift, it will never coincide with any significant anniversary party you may choose to have.

No, not at all

What are you worried about?

Would I be pissed? Nope. Not one bit.
esp as it is only the offical bit - their wedding in the one overseas, I guess that is the one they will 'celebrate'
You don't own the date- I'm sure thousands of things happened on that day.

YABU.

It wouldn't worry me.

Gives you all more chance of remembering it in years to come! :o

Nope, not fussed here.

Wouldn't be bothered at all.

Ok ok I get it- unreasonable! Just checking as I think my dislike for my future SIL is clouding my better judgement. Obviously!

Nope I wouldn't mind

i think thats lovely. yabu after all you dont expect people outside of your relationship to celebrate with you do you? apart from the biggy party type ones.

No, chances are they haven't realised it is your anniversary, I don't know when my brother's is. The only reason I might be a bit annoyed is if we had already arranged a holiday or weekend away for the same date and had to cancel.

No-one remembers our anniversary. Not even the bridesmaids including my sister

Not even a little bit. Be surprised if siblings even realised tbh. It's only the legal one anyway. They'll prob celebrate their anniversary on the actual date of the over seas wedding.
