Open Question: Feel like shes better than me? and more... Open Question: Feel like shes better than me?Alot of my husbands family dont like me. His grandparents never came to our wedding because of me. His uncle and aunt made up things about me and my family. The weird thing is, all of his family approve of his brothers wife (my husbands sister in law) It makes me feel like im not as good as her and it makes me quite jealous of her. I remember along time ago when my husband and i were dating he told me he thought his sister in law had sex appeal. I was really upset at the time. The other day my husbands mum said to me i need to get my hair done soon. Then i was saying how nice Janes hair was (my husbands sis in law) then she turned around and said 'thats cause shes pretty and has nice hair'. Nobody has ever caused her problems but when it comes to me, they all dont like me or say things to me all the time that hurts my feelings. I told my husband what his mum said and all he said was that she shouldnt have said that, then he started saying how she wouldnt have meant it. But obviously she did. Im so sick of being the unnoticed one, and my husbands sister in law is the favourite. Im a nice person and i hate this. Nobody is giving me a chance! Open Question: When it comes to dating, how can you deal with rejection and move on?Personally, I'm already insecure about how I look and I turn 18 in a month and a half. So how can I deal with rejection when it comes to dating and move on? I don't look for love, and that's a part of my problem. My mom, for example, will tell me that someone was staring (in a good way) but I didn't know because I was too busy looking down in lala land. I want to put myself out there, even if it does mean I get hurt or rejected. But I need to know how to deal with it. Open Question: I lied about my husband, my baby and nearly everything! HELP!!!!?Hello everyone. This is very hard for me, but please be open-minded. I am a compulsive liar, I have been ever since I was young and my uncle would repeatedly rape me. I would tell people I was at my friend's house, when really I was locked away in his cupboard. I grew up and my obsession for lying only worsened. Now, I have a job and a flat of my own. The only problem is I told my work colleagues I was married. I only did this because I didn't want to be set up on any dates. I didn't know my colleagues and I would grow so close working together, and I certainly didn't know that the two women at the office would become my closest friends. I've been faking this marriage for the past 5 years. I told them my husband got cancer, so I could eventually faze him out. They wanted to visit him though, and they ganged up on me, so I lied and said he was getting better. I wanted to take some time off work and escape the pressures of all their questions, so I told them I was pregnant. This is where it got bad. They threw me a shower and everything. I knew I couldn't keep up with it, so I told them I fell down the stairs and miscarried. They insisted I come to their OB/GYN, who is a specialist in the field and one of the women's father…I couldn't let this happened, so the night before - I freaked. I knew he was having a party for his dying wife at a local restaurant, so I stole a car, and when he was crossing the road, hit him and killed him on impact. Problem solved. But being in a house all by myself with all those baby items got me desperate and I decided to tell my friends I hadn't miscarried. I thought I could just adopt. I didn't know how harsh the agencies were, so months into my pregnancy, I was no further to getting a baby and I wasn't fat. They weren't seeing me because I had "morning sickness," so it wasn't that obvious – but I began wearing belly suits (my friend works in television.) I became so neurotic I contemplated suicide. Once they found out I wasn't pregnant they would stop being my friend for sure, so somehow, I had to get a baby. That's when I remembered my sister (who lives in another state) was giving birth soon…I know it sounds horrible, but all I had to do was walk into her house one afternoon, take the baby from the crib and go back home. I did it, and for a while, I was so damn happy. I had always wanted a baby. My friends loved it. We were closer than ever, but my sister began to whinge to the police about the missing baby and I realised I couldn't keep it forever. I said my tearful goodbyes, dropped the baby in a nearby river, and told my friends the baby died of the bubonic plague – the source of my husband's death. My friends wanted to go the funeral, so I killed a lonely man from the old folk's home and crashed his funeral with my friends. All my problems are solved. How can I continue being honest to my friends? I really am a good person and I want them to continue to see it. Thank you for taking the time. Open Question: Are our parents supposed to be in the receiving line and be announced into the reception hall?I keep hearing different things on this and I don't know what's more common. I'm the first to get married in the family in over 10 years and I haven't been in or attended a wedding for longer. Nobody can seem to agree on this... The most popular argument I've heard is that the parents and the bridal party are in the receiving line with myself and my groom. They meet and shake hands with all the people invited and give their thanks for attending. This, I fully understand and know of. I have also heard that since the parents are in the receiving line they do not get announced into the hall but the Bridal party does (best man, maid of honour, etc). This I don't quite get... Why would the bridal party get to be in the receiving line as well as be announced into the hall but not the parents? Keep in mind, this is just what I'm being told. I don't know how this works. Having said that this is a slightly odd situation. My parents have been divorced over 10 years. My mother has a relatively new boyfriend. They've been having issues since day one and she expresses on a regular basis that she doesn't see the relationship going anywhere. They're different people wanting different things with their lives. Nothing more. Suddenly she wants him in the receiving line with her and to be announced with her into the hall. I think this is absurd. She doesn't even like him as an individual and is just dragging out the relationship until it sinks. Since my father is escorting his common-law wife (my step mom) of 8 years into the hall and my step mom is also going to be in the receiving line (unless they're not supposed to be?) she feels the need to have someone to show off. Purely opinion, but I'd be shocked to the core if she denied it. This new boyfriend (I say new but he's been around a year or so now, they're just newly serious) makes no attempt to be involved in any family functions, does not participate in Birthdays or family dinners and has made no effort to be involved in my wedding. He offers no transportation to and from anywhere, a friendly phone call to see how the planning is going, and he didn't even come to my Jack and Jill because he claims it's too hard to find a babysitter for is 14 year old son for 3 hours. As far as I'm concerned this man is not a part of my family (as he has made that clear on a number of occasions through his actions - or lack there of). My dilemma: she wants him announced. This is my wedding and this man makes no effort to be a part of my life; why would I want him announced? What do I announce him as? Presenting the Mother of the Bride and her boyfriend? That seems silly... If she is in the receiving line and doesn't have to be announced into the hall then problem solved. If she IS supposed to be announced into the hall... I don't know what to do. My maids of honour (sisters) agree with me; given the circumstances of their relationship and his lack of committment to the family it makes no sense to give him the honour of announcement. At the same time my mother is insecure and doesn't want to walk in alone. Independance isn't the glory she wants it to be. Is she supposed to be escorted by her date? By an usher? With the Best Man perhaps? Little side note; I have two Maids of Honour as I have two biological sisters. They will be entering the hall together and the Best Man was going to be entering solo. The bridal party themselves came up with this idea. Someone, please clarify this for me! Thanks for your advice Jackie, but that won't work. My step-mom has been very involved and very helpful with the wedding. I lived with her and my father from 15 until I moved out on my own. She is a big part of my life. My father is being announced (if at all) as "the father of the bride and his wife..." or "the father and step mother of the bride". Again, thanks for the thought, but sadly, it won't work :( More Recent Articles
