RE: "Dear _______"

MaAD — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 22:12:43 GMT

None if this is wedding related but I need to get a few things off my chest before I explode:

dear ex boss: You are a jerk and a liar. Because you post dated my vacation pay after you let me go (lack of work), my EI is late a week in starting. Oh, and you think you can get away with not paying me any severance pay? You've got another thing comin. I have already started collecting evidence that I was there for more than a year when you let me go, not the year short a week like you've somehow managed your records to show. So when I *do* get my severance pay, It will be two weeks, not one. And I want it in cash - a cheque from you would likely bounce. :crazy:

dear EI office: Just give me my ***in money already! It has been a full 5 weeks since I last worked. My bills are getting behind. I need the cash. Please.

dear apartment building super: I will get that cheque to you as soon as I can. *sigh*

dear neighbours: if you don't clear your driveway/walkway, you wont get your news paper. I'm not delivering the paper because I like it. I'm doing it because I am desperate for the cash right now.

dear parents: thank you for taking us in. January can't come fast enough. We will pay you back. Promise.

dear Kitty: I promise we will come visit you. You will only be at DH's parents for a few months. Then we will bring you to a house. Shamrock and ZoeZoe will miss you too.

dear ZoeZoe: You will have fun at the neighbours. The cats there are your brothers and sister, it will be like a reunion, and like Kitty, its only temporary. There will be a house soon, and yes, we will visit you too. Shamrock and Kitty will miss you too.

dear Shamrock: I'm sorry that we can't bring Kitty and ZoeZoe to mom and dad's... mom's alergic. I promise though, you will get your cats back. (our dog thinks the cats are hers)

dear DH: I'm sorry that we can't bring Kitty and ZoeZoe to mom and dad's... mom's alergic. I promise though, you will get your cats back. You will get to see Kitty when you visit your parents, and I promise that will be often. She will remember you, and yes, if you want, we can put your picture into a Kitty proof frame for inside her carrier. Just think how much sooner we can get that down payment saved by living with mom and dad. It won't be long and we can reunite all the pets together again - in a house.

dear other neighbours, our best friends: Thank you for taking ZoeZoe for us. I know she will fit in just fine in time. We owe you big time. We will take her off your hands in a few months. Promise. (if you will give her back......)

dear MIL and FIL: Thank you for taking Kitty. We totally understand that you don't have room for ZoeZoe too. don't worry though. We have someone to take her. She will be fine. I promise that I will bring your son home for visits although I'm not sure where we will stay... you guys either need a bigger house or to kick out your freeloading sons. Its one thing to live at home because you can't find a job. Its a totally different thing to live at home so you [i]don't have to find a job.
[/i]
dear clients: I promise we wont miss any events and you can always call or email us. DH and I travel for weddings all the time. No Worries. We have even already arranged to stay with my sister on wedding weekends. Oh, our phone numbers aren't changing!

This is the funniest thread I have ever read! I feel so bad for some of you! How horrible some of your in laws have been. My opinion might change as time goes on, I still have 8 months to go, but for now:

Dear Sister: I love you, but just because you finally accepted that this is indeed happening and I truly am marrying him and I love him in spite of his grumpiness, does not mean you get to tell me what I should and shouldn't have at my wedding! I want a veil! I want roses! And did you stop to think maybe he is grumpy because he doesn't like you either?

Dear FSIL: You are the best. I love how supportive you are and how fun you are to bounce ideas off of without being rude about your opinions. I look forward to being sisters and consider you one of my closest friends.

Dear FMIL: Thank you for welcoming me and my kids into your family with open arms. After watching what my own mother went through with her MIL, I appreciate it more than you could ever know.

Dear BM#3 AKA BFF: I wish you were closer so that you could be more involved! I know you want to be and I can't wait until you are back! Thank you for all your support.

Dear Mom: I love you. I know you are trying to stay out of it so that I can have the wedding I want and not feel like you are interfering... but some enthusiasm and interest would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dear FH: I love you the most! You are giving me the wedding of my dreams and constantly listening to me go on about things and telling me a few hundred dollars doesn't matter in the end and to get what I will be happy with, not what is cheaper. I knew this would be amazing when you finally decided you were ready for it! xoxoxoxoxo

Dear Daddy: I will always be your little girl and I can't wait to see you cry when you walk me down the aisle.

To everyone else on CB that is ranting: I am truly sorry you are having some of the issues you are having. I sure hope the next 8 months doesn't leave me as upset as some of you are! But on the other hand, thank you for sharing your rants so I can appreciate what I have.

Loads of Love,

Leslie.

Dear Brad,

I begged and begged and begged you to just go way and get married. I told you that weddings cost a lot of money and you wouldn't listen. Now that I finally gave in to give you the wedding "YOU" wanted you fight me all the way. I never wanted this and now have to listen to the ***ing. And please stop worrying about inconveniencing our guests, pictures have to be taken, if they want to book a hotel room they will, you not need to feel obligated to pay for there room.. People spend money on at a wedding all the time.

Love you with all my heart but relax

We need one of these in FP section...anyways

Dear Mom;
I am about to become a mom too, and while I know I'll always be your little girl, I need you to back the hell off! I know you're only trying to help, but if I want to wash the dishes in my own house, then let me wash the dishes. If I need help I will ask for it, otherwise your constantly asking me if you could do it instead is making me feel like I'm useless.
Love Punk

Dear DH;
You have been absolutely wonderful throughout this pregnancy. I really don't know what I would have done without you. I'm sorry for snapping at you in the beginning, and I'm so grateful that you didn't carry a grudge cause you've been fan-dam-tastic! I hope I tell you often enough.
Love Nik

MissSilva — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 22:01:57 GMT

Dear FMIL,
May I remind you that you are not paying for this wedding, nor have you offered to contribute at all, so that means you get NO say in what I do with this wedding. AND YES THAT MEANS FOOD TOO!!! I don't care if you think Portuguese food is the absolute BEST IN THE WORLD.... [b]I DON'T [/b]and neither does my FAMILY. Please remember that I have to satisfy everyone at this wedding, not just you and your stupid family. GRRRR!

Dear BM (all of them),
You all suck. Thanks for nothing - and thanks for making me do everything by myself. YOU ALL SUCK! I knew I should have done this all by myself.

Dear FH,
You bastard. Am I the only one getting married here? You could at least help me pay for ONE thing. What the he%% - and no my dad's not going to bail me out with everything.... why don't you ask you parents for something for once... I thought they were rich... hmmm weird??? You cheap a$$.

Dear Daddy,
I love you! Thanks for helping me so much when no one else would! You are my rock!

Dear Mom,
I'm here!!! I'm not invisible!! Did you forget about me?

Wow - this feels so good to get this off my chest.

LilMissTrouble — Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:42:29 GMT

Dear Mom,

My wedding is going to be one of the most important days of my life and I'm so excited to be planning it! When I come to you with an idea I'm excited about, could you please, PLEASE try and sound excited. I don't care if you can only pretend for 10seconds that you're excited. I will stop coming to you about wedding plans if all I get is you telling me what a bad idea it is or how much it's going to cost.

Also, could you please stop telling me how you are too busy to look over the vendor information or contracts I send you and that you'll be free soon. You're a workaholic, and I don't think you'll ever be free to help me plan my wedding.

Love,

Missspunk — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 18:29:17 GMT

Dear .......

All bridal party minus brother in law groomsmen. Yes you are supposed to be at the rehersal and yes you are expected to participate in prep work, yes you are also expected to help with some cleanup. Renting a tux and showing up is NOT all there is to being a groomsmen. But thanks for being soooo so supportive. Next time you stand up for someone trying shutting your mouth quit whinning and think of someone else other then yourself.

Maid of Honor. I love you and you helped to the best of your ability. But your attitude sucked 2 days before and during the wedding. I shouldn't have to worry if you are going to crumble. I shouldn't have to worry about how your mom is getting to the wedding site and I shouldn't have to worry about how you are getting home when I had already paid for your hotel that at the last minute you didn't want. You decided to get married 1 week after me a week before my wedding. You had committed yourself to me 9months ago. You knew what was expected of you. I shouldn't have had to feel uncomfortable spending the night at your house while you cried and screamed on the phone and told everyone including me to get the F away from you when all I tried to do was console you.

Parents: Thanks for all your help, you shouldn't have had to do cleanup by yourself and yet you did although I helped and so did Jim. Which we shouldn't have had to.

Mother In Law: I love you but told you from the beginning we didn't want a ring bearer or flowergirl and yet you insisted the grandchildren stand. Then you decided to let them stay up late swim and took them on excersions the day before and the day of. No wonder my flowergirl was cranky and moody she was TIRED. She got about 4 pictures before she changed out of her dress.

Aunt: Thanks for being a royal F-ing B i t c h. You were nothing but a pain in everyone's @ss including my wedding co-ordinator. They tried to accomodate all your wishes and needs and you were still rude and totally inappropriate. I support my husband when he says you are not welcome at any of our family functions. You were an embarrassment to me and my family and I shouldn't have had to appologize for your rude and obnoxious behaviour. By the way the dog was our dog that we made accomodations for and the hotel my exceptions for. You have no right to complain why your dog wasn't allowed to come. It is my wedding and I didn't want your dog there.

Grandmother F: Your lucky you are old and senial Jim forgives you but I don't. He makes excuses for you because you are old. I know you have been a miserable old hage from the day I was born and you have only ever thought of yourself. Dad said it right when he said my wedding day was about me and NOT YOU. Get over yourself you are not that important. I didn't want any pictures of you with me in my dress anyways so if you think you are punishing me your sadly mistaken.

Husband: Our day was everything I wanted. You and me together, ignoring all the family drama and the day was absolutely perfect. Except for the two family members there isn't really anything I would change. Love you forever. Our first dance was so amazing thanks for the surprises all of them that day.

Bridesmaid and Bridesman: You two were awesome. Thanks for everything all the little things you did and how you were both able to calm me down when things were getting hairy. You both are amazing people.

Aunt and Uncle: I sent you an invite for you it stated 2 seats were reserved for you. If you coudln't read I'm sorry as I thought you could since you were able to reply to the invite. However not once did you mention that you were bringing your grandchildren. Perhaps you didn't read that children were not welcome and you don't know how to add. 2 adults plus 2 children equals 4 not 2. If I wanted the children there I would have invited their parents. You didn't even take the kids to your daughters wedding why then did you bring them to mine. The best was telling me the night before after seating charts had been made and meals ordered. Did you not think that I have to tell caterers.

Caterers: There really isn't enough words to describe how good how fantastic and amazing the food was. Thanks so very much A++++++

Bearbrook Farm and staff: A+++ for your services and accomodations. Thanks so much

DJ/Photographer/Videographer: Thanks for all your hardwork we will see how it all turns out when our final product arrive.

Harpist: Thanks so much it was absolutely beautiful and amazing

Minister: Thanks for everything you were great

All Guests: Thanks for sharing our day with us,we love almost all of you. Ok most of you and you were invited because you mean so much to us. Thanks and hope we can see all of you soon.

Brother: Thankyou for being you. You were amazing, you have grown up so much in the past year. You were the very brother I always knew you had the potential of being. Love you very much. Try coming home more often.

Dear EFIL,
I know you are an asshat but could you pleas try to pretend you are excited that we have the wedding proofs. I know you didn't bother doing anything for the wedding you gave us the smallest wedding gift we got, and you decided to have your teeth fixed AFTER the wedding rather than before but... did you also have to tell us you only wanted 2 pictures from the wedding, the one of your daughter and you, and one of her and her boyfriend? You didn't even want one of your son the groom.

Dear Zim,

Sorry to hear you are not being readily accepted by your in laws, it would be a serious stress on the relationship so I hope you and DH are on the same page. A united front always gets people in line faster I say!

It probably will take time, but please know there are people out there who feel the same way as you, and that we understand where you are coming from. :)

Hugs,

I first want to say that it was annoying to have to hunt you down for an RSVP. Next I would like to tell you that had you read your RSVP - I only invited you - not you and a guest. I thought that your email was a rather unique way to let me know that you and your stupid date would be joining us. Lastly - I would say that sending me a note from your backberry this morning to let me know just 2 days before the wedding that you and your stupid date aren't coming after all well - that's just dandy! I hope you have a good time what ever you *explative* get up to. You self centered egotistical female dog! You reakey crate of used armpit hairs, you moronic used piece of toilet paper! Thanks - now I have to re jig all of the seating![/quote]

Dear Future In-Laws;

I love your familys dearly and look forward to the day when I become a permanant member, But do you think that when we are celebrating weddings, a birthday, BBQ, or even just getting together, that you would PLEASE speak English so I can be a part of the conversation, rather than be the ONLY one out?

Do you have any idea how it feels to be in a room full of future family members, yet be so alone?....for hours?

FH told me (when you all met me for the first time) that he was told "I seem to be a very nice person, but I am very quiet".

HELL...if the conversations that took place within our gatherings were in English, maybe I could participate in the conversations.

It's not nice (actually it is right rude) when I am sitting at the dinner table with you and I am the only one that cannot understand what is being said. Not to mention how it feels when I find out later that you are having conversations about me...in front of me.

Why should I have to question FH about what is being said? You can talk to me!

Maybe I am going to bring a book to read next time. At least I will be able to understand it!!!!

RE: "Dear _______"

SS13Sept — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 14:34:18 GMT

Dear FH,

I am tired of doing everything by myself and trying to hide what I am doing from you because even the sound of the word "wedding" upsets you. I understand that you are waiting for "things" to be finalized before you get involved but do you think that could happen soon?? I want you to be a part of this and I want your input! I almost feel as though you don't even want to get married (although you say you do) So please look at the guestlist because I need some numbers and don't offer to buy me a wedding planner as I don't think its fair that we need to pay someone to care about the wedding when the true person that is supposed to care won't show any effort.

RE: "Dear _______"

NLC123 — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 08:42:08 GMT

Dear Photographer- Remember on Thursday when you msg'd me to say that you'd send some Thank You postcard samples my way...well it's now Wednesday of the following week and you've sent me NOTHING. I even emailed "Thank You" on Friday as a sort of "hey doofus you forgot something". No reply. Than on Sunday my anger got the best of me and I emailed that I understood that you might be very busy so if my pics are ready I'll do the Thank You notes somewhere else b/c I remember on the 18th when you said my pics were "just about done" that must have meant "just about done on the MOON". One more day and I am releasing the Husband on you, he's not so pretty and he will be mean b/c I have been btiching non stop about this and he's SO tired of it!

Dear Accountant and CRA- We sent YOU the cheque, you put it into the wrong account and now you can't find it. How in the world is it MY issue to trace it? Sigh I hate you and you just made me call 3 different places in the last 10 mins only to be told this isn't our issue....OY!

Just read your post in Miscellaneous, and realized you weren't talking about the Grumpy Brides forum in your OP. My bad! :D But sorry to hear that other people were being douches.

-Liz[/quote]

Since it was baby related it was probably crazy mom to be's on a parenting site. Those ladies get pretty nutty sometimes. My friend, who partied like a maniac and took all kinds of "illegal" substances suddenly thought certain foods / chemicals / anti-biotics / etc where the DEVIL!!! She won't even get her kid innoculated against polio, german measels, mumps, tetnus et al. And she rants about people that would give the shots to their kids. So ya it wouldn't surprise me if new mom's or mom's to be wouldn't argue over breast feeding.[/quote]

Sorry - didn't think anyone would have replied to me here!!
It was actually another wedding planning site, with a similar set up to here (ie it has a family section), but my post was just a vent about several issues totally unrelated to parenting. I received this as one of the replies: "Breastfeeding is just as big of a debate as abortion, IMO. It's a non-winnable debate on both sides, no matter how hard you argue it." Yeah, I can totally see how choosing to breast feed or bottle feed your child means choosing between giving them life and murdering them before they're born. Yup, that's exactly the same. :rolleyes: Whatever crazy lady. (She's not a mom nor a mom to be, but I think she did recently start TTC.)

Ummm, what's that about? Take drugs while you're preggo but don't vaccinate your kid? Wow, I think something got cooked in her head. Maybe one too many brain cells got fried there. There really should be parenting licensing - if you're of child-bearing age you should have to take a test. No pass = you get injected with something that stops you from having kids (it'd be different things for men and women). When you could pass the test, you could then produce children. Don't I wish it was that easy?

Nicotina: "You reakey crate of used armpit hairs, you moronic used piece of toilet paper" THAT IS TOO FUNNY!!!
Used armpit hairs! omg, how do you come up with this stuff?!?!

Alright, I feel better now. :)

Oh, and breastfeeding vs formula feeding is not an issue to be debated in any way shape or form at all like the abortion issue! How can it be?? You don't kill a person if you choose breast over formula or vice versa! Grow a brain before you say completely idiotic things.

Where did we say that? On the forum that you're not mentioning, or in CB? I just read all the recent threads regarding CB problems, and no one mentioned that.

Dear Self - why do you insist on feeling like crap but having nothing physically wrong show up on tests?? Why can't you just allow something to come up so that we can get you fixed? I know you're broken cause people aren't supposed to feel like this.
Please cooperate next time we go see a doctor and let them find something wrong.

Dear MIL - My cats are a part of my family. This is their home, and they have been in my life well over 7 years. Just because you don't like their fur doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt me when you refuse to come to my house. To make it even better, you don't have to stop talking to me on the phone, emailing or texting me. It feels like you've abandoned me, and if you're going to behave that way, it's no wonder that I prefer animals over human company most of the time!!

Dear Mother Nature - can you please smarten up and not make it a high of 5 degrees in the first week of autumn?? We didn't have a great summer and I was hoping you'd give us an enjoyable fall. I guess you thought it best to freeze us early. Thanks a lot.

Dear God, Mom and Dad in Heaven....thank you so much for making my wedding day perfect and I mean PERFECT. Not one thing went wrong. Everything was amazing. The comments we have heard are all unreal. DH and I have no one to thank but you.

Love you and thank you!!!

CB...you've finally done it. After erasing the initial part of my planning and going offline for days(multiple times)not having working quote buttons, content issues and all around suckiness, I will be moving on. I'll still lurk but I'm not posting important wedding stuff here(besides some pics of the big day after:D). A simple we're sorry the boards have been acting up would have been greatly appreciated. I've found a new home :).

Dear (not so) best man:

I cannot believe after 6 MONTHS of notice you have not planned a Kick ass, bachelor party! You gave ppl 2 weeks notice knowing full well that they lived HOURS away and would need lots of notice. NOW none of my lovely man's friends can come!!!!!!! Thank you, SOOOOO much for ruining one of the things he was most looking forward to.

Dear Mom- thank you for repeatedly telling me how brown is NOT a wedding color and how real flowers are a waste of money. I happen to like brown for a FALL wedding and my flowers cost $40, when your fake ones were almost $100, please refrain from opening your mouth until the wedding is over and we will all get along nicely.

Dear Guests:

Please stop RSVPing for you, your children, your MIL, you cousins wife, your pet dog, and your goldfish. The invite said "Mr. And Mrs. Blank" not and family, not and extended family, and certainly not "and whoever the *** else you want". NO they're not coming. And stop phoning me multiple times to see if I've changed my mind, or having another member of your family call on your behalf to see if I've changed my mind. I come across sweet, but bring all those ***ers to my wedding and I'll boot them and you out!

dear mom

When my sister gets married, don't you dare EVER assure her that by simply putting "Mr. and Mrs." on the invite, that EVERYONE will understand their children are not invited. I'm really kicking myself for listening to you.

Dear FH:

There is no more "i'll do it later". 31 days and counting, love. Phone them NOW get their rsvp's NOW!!!

Dear Universe,

Thank-you for thinking of me, and clueing me in as to your plan. Now I wait, but I wait with much more patience. Even if it doesn't work out - I'm glad you thought of me.

Thank-you again,

Dear Universe,

I know you have a plan for me, and I know everything works out for the best. However, it sure would help me, and everyone who has to deal with me if you could please clue me in as to what your plan is.... and soon...

With love,

Laura

Dear future MIL,

Why do you choose to say things when you do? Your timing is rarely good! If we want to invite my FH's first cousins then we will....don't create reasons not too!

ARGGGGHHHHH! The guest list gave me a headache - I've been told it's one of the most challenging parts of the wedding. I hope that's true!
