Party he!! or language problem - 05/04/06 03:30 PM
[color:"purple"]BFs close friend is getting married. ExW and ExGF are in wedding party. No one but exGF and he are living in the area - everyone else is flying in. No one except ExGF was worrying about showers and bachelor/bachelorette parties.
ExW suggested that BF have the party before his regularly scheduled Memorial Day party - start the day a little early. Rather than do that and not knowing how to segregate the two, I just suggested that we change the MD party into a wedding couple party.
ExGF was complaining of no cash. I told BF that he and I would just throw the party.
Now ExGF wants to meet up with BF and I to discuss party plans. I have no time and don't want to give up time with BF for this so I offer to email ExGF. BF didn't want to hurt her feelings and when he offered to host the party he said that he was sure that her input would be necessary for the planning.[/color]
[color:"purple"]Is it just me or is she taking credit for the party and we are just supposed to throw cash at her????

To tell you the truth, my main focus lately has been the shower. That's why I suggested to BF that we have a planning "get-together" to throw ideas around and come up with some sort of "plan". We (the bridesmaids) really appreciate that you and BF are "sponsoring" the gig since the shower will be quite pricey for the three of us, but would also like to be involved in the planning process...I'm sure you understand and of course, if it's okay with the two of you. I did pick up a few trinkets for bride and the bridesmaids...i.e. dare cards, baseball hats with our "titles" on them (white with blue stitching---really cute), a blue sparkly lei for bride, 4 blue plastic champagne glasses for the wedding girls, a shot glass (blue, of course) with a neck cord that says "I'm the bride, buy me a shot". There's probably more, but I can't remember right now. Let BF know that J will not be there...Salli-Ann called to RSVP for the shower and she said they will be away that weekend. Looks like BF and groom will be the only wedding party men at our bachelor party...LOL (unless Joe drives all the way down from NY). Do you think the two of them can handle the responsibility? Hee hee hee.
