don't listen to any of these fools, jp. everyone knows that marriage has nothing to do with "love". marriage is all about GETTIN' IT ON!!! WHOOOOOEEEE!!!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

this is the wisest passage ezabel has ever been graced with

alexOG 2001

haha

jp jpOG 2003

this sounds exciting

malibu malibuOG 2001

for this reason i'd love to have a simple quick ceremony and then plan a big party for later like a normal wedding months later so that nobody could make those annoying jokes or winks for months on end. when vanessa was getting married she got so much of it and everytime i wanted to punch them in the face. (of course not literally well only 4/7th literally)

superhero superheroOG 2004

yeah the annoying jokes are just so aggravating

and they continue on through married life

try telling someone that it's hard to sleep when you get married due to having someone else in the bed with you now (maybe you kick them, maybe they kick you, i dunno)

and the people say "no sleep .. heh heh heh"... and you're like "dude i'm FREAKIN TIRED"

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004

I always wondered about this. I could definately see where the jokes could get annoying, people just need to GROW UP, they act like it's this juicy scandalous thing...and even if it is MYOB

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I think these jokes are worse for men than women - a few people have said things to me, and I either blush because they're funny, or straight out say, 'That's not funny.' But Donovan has relayed some inappropriate comments to me that he's received. Very strange.

alexOG 2001

awww come on. you all know you love the attention.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

i dunno, for some reason i don't forsee this being annoying to me. i guess i'll find out eventually

A
alexOG 2001

yeah but you will probably never find out.

superhero superheroOG 2004

haha you rip on matt more than muffy rips on me

malibu malibuOG 2001

no it starts out being hysterical cuz its just your friends but then the oddest people just bust out the creepiest comments

specialk specialkOG 2003

Since we're on this topic, I have to ask.....did any of you other married folks (or friends of married folks, did you hear about this ever) feel like you were gonna get in trouble when you left your reception? I remember leaving our reception, getting in the car, driving away, and waiting for someone to call and ask why we just rode off in a car alone together, hahaha.
Seriously, we never rode alone the entire time we dated, and it was SO WEIRD after we got married....I felt guilty, hahahaha.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

my best friend felt so guilty she said....she said after she returned from her honeymoon she felt like every time the phone rang she thought it was going to be one of her elders...LOL

A
alexOG 2001

that's awful. you shouldn't feel guilty for having...you know...after you're married.

B
brothermanOG 2004

People need to mind their own business anyway.

B
brothermanOG 2004

I knew someone who got treated lousy by some because he and his girlfriend took each of their kids out for ice cream without anyone else being with them. Apparently someone in the congregation bumped into them. Uh...What are they gonna do with kids all around them? People are just silly.

A
alexOG 2001

that's awful. you shouldn't feel guilty for having...you know...after you're married.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

its lighthearted. its cause when you date for that period of time, then all of a sudden you're alone...its understood how they can feel guilty. LOL

jp jpOG 2003

wait...you dont need chaperones once your married?

B
brothermanOG 2004

Nope, you are free to grab her. Haha...

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004

When I was younger me and my best friend swore that each of us as part of the wedding/ honeymoon would have a suite secretly reserved. The plan was that on the BIG NIGHT we'd sneak out (under the guise of getting ice) and go party together escaping the inevitable horror that awaits LOL!!!!

that's possibly the silliest thing i've ever heard

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder originalsnob

i dont understand what you mean

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 thefunkyfresh

We were totally nervous about...STUFF.

So anyway we each promised the other that (since we automatically assumed we'd be eachothers maid of honor) when we were booking the honeymoon suite (on a seperate floor naturally), we'd also secretly (like under an alias or something) book an additional room for the other.
The plan was fairly elaborate. Whichever of us got married would stay as long as possible at the reception, while the other would (who had the secret suite) would leave right after the ceremony to head for the resort.

So once Bride and Groom arrive, said 'WingGirl' ( I don't know if I can use it this way but, I am) would already be in the hotel/resort awaiting the preplanned escape of the bride.

Once the escape is made two of us would run off and hang out, with a conversation that would most likely consist of a series of shrill "OOoh My Gods!" a lot of laughing and heavy drinking 'cause I'm sure you only get one good escape.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder originalsnob

lol, ok i get it now. so basically you get the benefit of having a wedding without having to go thru with the nitty gritty haha, pretty nice for your future husband!

B
brothermanOG 2004 thefunkyfresh

Later in the evening he would. LOL!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder brotherman

pretty much everything i wanted to say sounded unintentionally dirty tho

B
brothermanOG 2004 thefunkyfresh

How can you edit your replies and I can't?

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder brotherman

Then it must be really bad that it cracked me up.

monsterEst. 2006 jp

You you need a hand to get back up on the curb? LOL :P

Are you saying you and your friend are gay lovers!! LOL!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

um, no you dont need chaperone's once your married. unless you do it differently on the east coast. LOL

B
brothermanOG 2004

Besides if you are not married yet, you don't need a chaperone if you take separate cars and meet in a public place. How can you ever show any sort of affection or talk about personal things if you have people breathing down your neck every second? At least that is my take on the matter. I remember hearing a talk awhile back that talked about this as well.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 brotherman

some still talk against this too tho. with my last bf, we'd meet somewhere totally public would have a few peeps make drama. so lame.

B
brothermanOG 2004 socalgal

People will talk no matter what. I don't care. If I know I am doing the right thing, then it doesn't matter what peeps say. We must fear Jehovah, not men. Those people are gossiping and disobeying a different type of counsel.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003 brotherman

oh believe me, im the same way. and i did tell those peeps what i thought....tactfully of course

B
brothermanOG 2004 socalgal

You are awesome. ;o) People annoy me.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

chaperones AFTER marriage? GET THE HECK OUT OF TOWN. total insanity. if anyone tried to preach that to me, i'd tell them to take off.

jp jpOG 2003 fivezero

i think its a good idea. you never know what sort of stuff those married people are brewing up

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 jp

you're completely out of your tree

brothermanOG 2004 alex

Hahahahaha....

tesoro tesoroOG 2001

haha, not leaving the ceremony, but even still now, almost two years after being married, we'll just be home alone watching a movie or something, and i'll be like...isn't this weird, that we're allowed to be alone in a house together? haha
