DP & I decided to bring our wedding plans forward from summer next year to February, we are both so excited. I told a friend recently and her response included ‘Wow! What's the rush? I thought it was in August.
Where? When? Etc., I'm surprised to be honest. It is really hard to fathom you are getting married!?! Hope you have a pre-nup for the girls sake….and with regards to him recently being unwell ‘BP plummeted that time, when he became unconscious, most likely from viagra or cialis. Doctors see it happen all the time in the morning...forgot to mention before...’
Not the congratulations I was hoping for. AIBU to tell her to fuck off??? DP and I have been together over four years ….

Is it possible she was just distracted or having a bad day and said the ‘wrong’ thing? People aren’t always as happy for us as we’d like them to be & I’d be inclined to say give her a break. But if she has form for being snide and it’s getting you down generally, maybe think about speaking to her or seeing her less.

@Offmyfence

I'm guessing this is in reference to some irregularities in the poster's previous comments on MN, where they can't decide if they are married, divorced or engaged.

OP, I had a mum friend like this! She had many many issues and was actually a very spiteful emotionally immature person.

She never changed so I ghosted her. I suggest you do the same.

@kittensinthekitchen To be clarify for you …I am divorced from DDs Father. I am ‘engaged’ to DP but have called him my ‘DH’ since we decided to marry. This is just the official bit ….

Thanks for all your really helpful comments and input. I really don’t know what the basis for her comments were …. I think I’m just going to be busy when she calls going forward. Let go with love ❤️

Is there a reason for her concerns. I expect there is

MrsPetty · 12/12/2021 13:39

@Viviennemary it’s difficult to imagine the basis for them as she’s only met him once in passing and he’s always treated me and my DDs really, really well. I’m marrying him. I wouldn’t if I wasn’t sure ….

Why? Based on all OPs posts? Is it because he's male, so therefore he must be wrong??
