I know IABU but .... give it to me.

AIBU to consider not being a bridesmaid because I'm being a twatty superstitious old batshit crazy woman??? That would one day like to be a bride.

This is lighthearted .... to some extent

Bridesmaid 7 times before I even got together with DH.
I like to think it's because I'm such an amazing friend Wink

Mookatron I think maybe it was an issue when besmirching your purity was a thing.

These you can besmirch it as much as you like, so enjoy!!

Grin "Three times a bridesmaid, three times she's copped off with the best man", eh? Grin

YABU!
I’ve been a bridesmaid three times & just got engaged so (all being well) the bride bit will happen soon!

I've never been a bridesmaid...
now I'm too old and fat and friendless

Still, at least I have a husband.

4 times a bridesmaid before I met DH, once since. Technically I suppose the last one was MOH but as two of us were married the bride just put us all as bridesmaids. Feasible I’ll be one again at some point if other good friends get married before we’re all too old to carry off the word “maid”...

I've never been a bridesmaid, too ugly. But i have been a witness 3 times.

I've been with DH 20 years, married 8.

I was a bridesmaid 4 times before I got married, wasn't worried at all as DH came to 2 of them with me.

My sister has been a bridesmaid at least five times, maybe six. She has made this joke a time or two, back in her single days. She currently hasn't been a bride yet, but she is engaged hopefully I haven't jinxed her now

I've been a bridesmaid 7 times... I can only remember who for by thinking of the dresses I wore! Would have been 8 but I have birth 3 weeks prior to one wedding so decided not to do it. I'll never actually get married though because of the curse

VladmirsPoutine · 12/03/2018 17:21

Do you want to be a bride? Do you have a partner?
