We're the ancient two 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: K Storytime podcast hosts, and. 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 2: We have some ancient wisdom in the stories coming up. 4 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: If you want to hear the wisdom from two old 5 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 1: heads that know more than they know what to do with, 6 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: you'd have to wait for a quick message from our 7 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: sponsors for the next two minutes or so. 8 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 3: My stepmother in law ignores my parenting instructions. She regretted 9 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 3: it instantly, Boo, how do you like me now? My 10 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 3: husband is the only child from his parents' marriage. After 11 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 3: his parents divorced, his dad remarried, his mom did not 12 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 3: when his dad had kids with his new wife. My 13 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 3: husband was treated very poorly by this woman. By the way, 14 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,279 Speaker 3: this comes from K Girl eight on the Okay Storytime 15 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 3: suffered it so her kids were angels and could do 16 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 3: no wrong, and my husband was always the bad seed. 17 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 3: When I dated my husband, I heard the stories and 18 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 3: honestly just thought she really couldn't be. 19 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 4: That bad boy? Was I wrong? 20 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 3: Because she had always looked down upon my husband and 21 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 3: thought he was beneath her. That meant, as the woman 22 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 3: who married him, I must be beneath her too. Things 23 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 3: weren't too bad until we started having kids, and then 24 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 3: her entitlement began, and so did her comments. She constantly 25 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 3: commented on how bad we were as parents and how 26 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 3: he didn't dress or feed our kids properly. She was 27 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 3: very hard on me that I was unable to brefeed 28 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 3: my kids. I tried, but just couldn't produce enough milk. 29 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 3: Told me that I was so terrible that my kids 30 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 3: were raised on formula, and how something must be wrong 31 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: with me if I couldn't produce enough milk and my 32 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 3: kids were going to suffer because of it. I would 33 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 3: literally never want to be around this person ever get 34 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 3: mad at it. This woman would constantly talk about how 35 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 3: well her children had turned out, and how much of 36 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 3: an excellent mother she was. They didn't turn out well 37 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 3: at all, and she wasn't that great, and how we 38 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 3: would be better parents if we just listened to her 39 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 3: and did what she said. In fact, when our second 40 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 3: child was born and we told her what his name was, 41 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: she didn't like it. She proceeded to tell us that 42 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 3: we picked an awful name and she would call him 43 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 3: by his middle name. I put my foot down and 44 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 3: told her that if we want wanted to call him 45 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: by his middle name, we would have named him that. 46 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: I said, his name is this, and that is what 47 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 3: we will be calling him, and then dared her to 48 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 3: say another word. Yes, this woman really exists. She is 49 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 3: so bad that I only refer to her as the 50 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: woman who was married to my father in laws. Also, 51 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 3: our first son is autism, and although we knew he 52 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 3: was different, we didn't find out exactly about his condition 53 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 3: until he was older. Because of this, when he got 54 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 3: old enough to remove his clothes and diapers, he would 55 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 3: no matter where he was, he would always end up 56 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 3: as a jay bird. As a baby and toddler, it 57 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: wasn't too much of an issue when he would take 58 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 3: off his shirts and pants, but it was a big 59 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: deal when he would remove his diaper. 60 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 4: Imagine chasing a one year old around with a. 61 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 3: Diaper and hoping he didn't make a mess before you 62 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 3: catch him. It was exhausting. I finally resorted to using 63 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 3: duct tape. Yes, you heard that right, I started using 64 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 3: duct tape. Now, before you get upset. I didn't wrap 65 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 3: the duct tape all the way around him. I would 66 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 3: put the diaper on him snug enough he couldn't push 67 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: it down, but not too tight, and then tear off 68 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 3: two small pieces of the duct tape and play each 69 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 3: piece over each of the diaper closures. The duct tape 70 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 3: would prevent my son from unfastening the diaper and getting 71 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 3: out of it. Now you can imagine that the woman 72 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 3: who was married to my father in law took offense 73 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 3: to this. 74 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 4: She would just go on and on. 75 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 3: About how horrific it was that I did that, and 76 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 3: that it was bad enough to be considered child. 77 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: So now I was. 78 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 4: Letting my white trash show. 79 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 3: Now on to the story that happened sixteen years ago 80 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 3: when my son was a year old. He's now seventeen, 81 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: and this is one of his favorite stories. The cast 82 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: me as me, of course, my husband will be hubby, 83 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 3: my son will be son, father in law will be 84 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 3: father in law, and woman. 85 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 4: Who is married to my father in law, is you 86 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 4: guessed it? Karen? 87 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: Hobby answered the phone one day, and I could tell 88 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: that he was talking to his dad. After Hobby hung up, 89 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: he let me know that we had been invited Slash 90 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: ordered to come over for a visit. Father in law 91 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 3: had installed some brand new, expensive carpet for Karen in 92 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: their house and she was wanting to show it off. 93 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: I was looking to get out of the house and 94 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 3: we don't usually stay too long, so I figured it 95 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 3: wouldn't be a big deal, and so we decided to 96 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: go for a visit. So we grabbed the diaper bag 97 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: which contains the duct tape, some toys, a few snacks, 98 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: and juice and headed out. When we got to the house, 99 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: we were instructed to wipe our shoes on the welcome 100 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 3: mat and asked to remove them before entering the house 101 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 3: if there was too much dirt that the welcome mat 102 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 3: couldn't handle. We went inside and I can see the 103 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: very nice carpet that was installed. It wasn't exactly white, 104 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: but it was very light, and I could tell it 105 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 3: was very expensive, and mentally notated jokingly that if I 106 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 3: had this carpet in my house, I wouldn't let people 107 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 3: wear shoes either. We put our stuff down, take a seat, 108 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 3: and put my son on the floor, who proceeded to 109 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 3: feel the soft carpet, and Karen was smiling, very smug 110 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 3: because she could tell how much sun was enjoying the 111 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 3: softness of the carpet. She proceeded to inform us that 112 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: no food or drinks were allowed in the living room 113 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 3: and that if Sun wanted his juice again, he would 114 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: have to drink it in the kitchen. 115 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 4: Again. 116 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: This was a nice carpet, and I had no problem 117 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: with this because I wouldn't want people eating, slash drinking 118 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: on my carpet either if it was this expensive. Anyways, 119 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 3: after being there about twenty minutes, I started feeling a 120 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 3: headache coming on, and I didn't bring any etceteran with me. 121 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 3: Father in law offered me some aspirin, but that never 122 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: helps when I get a headache. I told father in 123 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 3: law that I could just run down to Walmart, which 124 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 3: is less than a mile away, and I would get 125 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 3: some etcetera and we would be fine. Hubby was going 126 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 3: to drive me, and so we started to pack up Son. 127 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: It was at this point father in law and Karen 128 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: encouraged us to leave him. They said we were just 129 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 3: going down the road, wouldn't be gone long, and they 130 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 3: didn't mind at all watching Son while we were gone. 131 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 4: Do you know what it's going? 132 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 5: I have an idea, but I kind of I don't know. 133 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 5: I don't know for sure. 134 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 3: We relented and I told Karen that Son shouldn't be 135 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 3: any problems because we had fed him before we came 136 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 3: over juice is in the diaper bag along with the 137 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 3: duct tape, but he had a dried diaper on, so 138 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 3: he was happy and should be no trouble. She said 139 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: she wasn't worried and that they would look after him now. 140 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 3: On our way to Walmart, I asked Hubby if he 141 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 3: thought Karen would change son's diaper because she doesn't like 142 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 3: him wearing diapers with duct tape on. The said she 143 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: probably would. 144 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I figured. But we'm 145 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: really excited for this. 146 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: I told him that I would be very upset if 147 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 3: she did, because that would be a waste of a 148 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 3: good diaper and they're expensive. So we get to Walmart, 149 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 3: go to the pharmacy area and get some etcetera, and 150 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 3: pay and leave more quickly than I had expected. We 151 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 3: got back to father in laws after being gone for 152 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: about twenty minutes. Even after sixteen years, I can remember 153 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 3: the scene like it was yesterday as we entered the house. 154 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,679 Speaker 3: So if you're from an older generation from the South, 155 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 3: you'll understand what it means when you say someone is 156 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 3: having the vapors for everyone else. Let me explain. Having 157 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: the vapors is similar to a meltdown, only more dramatic. 158 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 3: It involves dramatic heavy in and out breathing, almost like 159 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: a panic attack, but bad acting fake like, and the 160 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: very overly dramatic head gestures of fanning yourself with both 161 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 3: hands very quickly. All at the same time. We walked 162 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 3: in the door, and I can hear Son down the 163 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 3: hall screaming, not in panic, more like a scream you 164 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: hear when someone is being chased playfully, and Karen is 165 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 3: on the couch having the vapors in such a way 166 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 3: that I considered it an Oscar winning moment. I then 167 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 3: look down at the very nice light and expensive carpet, 168 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 3: and I can see a yellow line that started near 169 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 3: one area of the room where a pile of Sun's 170 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: clothes and diapers were, and followed it around the room 171 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 3: and down the hall.

Kelly and Mike 252 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 5: have been dating for five and a half years. I 253 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 5: truly believe she is well intentioned, but oh my god, 254 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 5: she is freaking terrible to be around. I get along 255 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 5: with almost everyone I meet, but being around her actively 256 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 5: makes me feel like I'm losing Brainzell. We are polar opposites, 257 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 5: but that's not why she's terrible. She makes wildly inappropriate 258 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 5: comments to everyone around her, has no self awareness, and 259 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 5: thinks the world owes her something. Kelly and Mike are 260 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 5: not in a good financial position. Kelly is unable to 261 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 5: work because of her traumatic childhood, and Mike works fifty 262 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 5: plus hours a week in construction. He busts his butt 263 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 5: to provide for them, and she spends her days at 264 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 5: the local bar with the local riff. Raft then complains 265 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 5: about not being able to afford to buy a three bedroom, 266 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 5: two bathroom home on several acres of land in our 267 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 5: high cost of living state. For Christmas, my boyfriend's parents 268 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 5: are hosting celebrations and we are doing a small gift 269 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 5: exchange with a max budget of ten dollars per person, 270 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 5: and then everyone drew a name from a hat and 271 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 5: we get that person one gift of up to fifty dollars, 272 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 5: so everyone gets one big gift and a couple of 273 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 5: small things. At first, we had no budget, but Mike 274 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 5: was concerned about being able to participate, so we set 275 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 5: a budget and James slipped Mike two hundred dollars so 276 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 5: that he wouldn't have to worry about it. It's not 277 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 5: secret Santa, so everyone knows who drew which name. James 278 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 5: drew Kelly's name, and immediately she started sending him links 279 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 5: to things that were one hundred dollars plus for him 280 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: to get her. He reminded her of the budget that 281 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 5: we set to benefit them, and she said, you can 282 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 5: afford it. These are the only things I want and 283 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 5: made it worse by saying, Mike drew your name and 284 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 5: we're getting. 285 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 4: You something nicer than fifty dollars. 286 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 5: I'll give her the benefit of the doubt that she 287 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 5: may not know that James gave Mike the two hundred 288 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 5: dollars to help them out. She hounded James about it 289 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 5: being unfair that they suffer while we have so much, 290 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 5: so clearly he. 291 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 4: Can afford to get her a nicer gift. 292 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 5: Both James and I are very comfortable, but we've both 293 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 5: worked hard for everything that we have. She insulted him, 294 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 5: called him greedy, told him that he's selfish and only 295 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 5: hears about himself in the fancy life that he lives 296 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 5: with me, and that Mike and her resent him for 297 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 5: abandoning them. 298 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 4: James is the kind of person. 299 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 5: Who would give his last dollar away. She use off 300 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 5: his feet in a snowstorm, and he acts tough but 301 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,439 Speaker 5: is actually just a big softy. A lot of people 302 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 5: take advantage of that, and he caved. He got her 303 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 5: the fancy, over budget gift. 304 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 4: Oh well, don't see that way. 305 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 5: I know James and my experience just kind of roll 306 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 5: their eyes at her when she makes weird, inappropriate comments. 307 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 5: And their mom has confided in me that she's happy 308 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 5: at least James picked a normal one and that she's 309 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 5: glad that she doesn't have to take care of both 310 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 5: her sons into adulthood. They are completely unaware of what's 311 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 5: happening behind the scenes between Kelly and James. I'm not 312 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 5: afraid of confrontation, but don't want to ruin Christmas by 313 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 5: losing my crap at her. She's bound to say something 314 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 5: or do something because she always does, and I really 315 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 5: don't know if I can bite my tongue much longer. 316 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 4: I am furious at her. 317 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 5: I feel like I'm going to explode if she makes 318 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 5: one off handed comment or snydermark that I'm betting It'll 319 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 5: only take twenty minutes for her to say something stupid. 320 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 5: It's not about the gift. We don't care about the money. 321 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 5: To me, this is icing on the cake of her 322 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 5: already poor behavior. To James, it's just another thing that 323 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 5: he wants to let slide because he loves his brother 324 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 5: and it makes Mike's life easier. If Kelly is happy 325 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 5: and not complaining. How can I navigate this and stop 326 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 5: her from taking advantage of James in the future. Talking 327 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 5: to her rationally is futile, and James did try that, 328 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 5: and that's how we're here. 329 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 4: There isn't edit, But what do we think?

She even 503 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 7: insulted me in Spanish, and when I called her out 504 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 7: for it, she just laughed and ignored me. 505 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 3: Well. 506 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 7: Fiance talked to her multiple times, but nothing changed. She 507 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 7: just got defensive and started yelling at him, which seems 508 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 7: to be what she does whenever someone tells her something 509 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 7: she doesn't like. Despite all of that, I tried to 510 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,159 Speaker 7: be civil around her for her parents' sake, since we 511 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 7: got along really well and we love. 512 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 2: Spending time together. 513 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 7: That was until one night when she went off on 514 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 7: me when her parents mentioned our upcoming wedding We were 515 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 7: talking about guests, and she started saying who should go 516 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 7: and who shouldn't, How I shouldn't think about their family 517 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 7: and not mine When it comes to guests. Mind you, 518 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 7: there will be three times more of people from my 519 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 7: fiance side than mine. All of this because she wanted 520 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 7: to invite her friends. Where's the backup here, dude? 521 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 8: Where is a single soul putting this trash goblin in 522 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 8: her place? 523 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 7: Requesting backups from spinalless husband?

So we tried to tell her 531 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 7: that it was our wedding and it was our decision 532 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 7: to see who we invite, and she said, well, we're 533 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 7: paying for it, which is not true. My fiance's parents 534 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 7: offered to help pay for the wedding and we are 535 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 7: incredibly grateful for that, but she is not giving us anything. 536 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 7: She went as far as saying, we're just doing this 537 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 7: because of your dad, and that sent me off a 538 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 7: little background. My dad can't come to the US because 539 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 7: he doesn't have a visa, So my fiance and I 540 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 7: decided to have our wedding in Cabo. 541 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 8: This woman is making a hullabaloo about a wedding in Cabo. 542 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: Shit up. 543 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 7: This is the most everybody wins scenario of all time. 544 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 7: Wedding in Cabo.

Going back to that night, after 552 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 7: she said that I just lost it on her, things 553 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 7: went bad or really quick. 554 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 2: She started yelling. 555 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,959 Speaker 7: I raise my voice because I'm not going to let 556 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 7: her talk about my family and wouldn't let her yell 557 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 7: at me, and then my fiance and I left. 558 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 2: I saw her only once after that. Of course, she 559 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 2: never said hi to me or acknowledge my presence, and 560 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 2: we have avoided each other ever since. 561 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 7: Now our wedding is coming up in five months, and 562 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 7: of course she's going, Oh is that? And of course 563 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 7: I hope that she doesn't. I hope she goes away 564 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 7: into a black hole. So we didn't want to invite her, 565 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 7: but we knew we had to in order to avoid 566 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 7: a fight with his parents. But now we just really 567 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 7: don't want to have her there because we know how 568 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 7: much she likes to start drama. We're even more anxious 569 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 7: because we rented a villa so both families can be 570 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 7: together and make a vacation out of it. We'll have 571 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 7: it for a full week, but we totally forgot about 572 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 7: having to deal with her, and now we're regretting it. 573 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 7: My mother in law said her daughter will only go 574 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 7: for the wedding, but it turns out she decided to 575 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 7: go for the full week and made yes, made her 576 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 7: dad buy her a plane ticket for those dates. 577 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: I have so many thoughts. We'll get to soon. 578 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 7: Her mom suggested that we could have a sit down 579 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 7: talk with her to talk about these issues and make 580 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 7: sure we clear the air so nothing happens during our 581 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 7: wedding week, but she also said she can't promise it'll 582 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 7: go smoothly because her daughter is very difficult to deal with, 583 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 7: and I don't know if I want to do that. 584 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 7: I really don't want to see her again, because I 585 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 7: know it'll turn into a fight if we decide to 586 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 7: have that talk. I don't feel like I want to 587 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 7: deal with that, So Reddit friends. 588 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 2: What can I do? 589 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 7: We try to avoid her as much as possible, but 590 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 7: mother in law is always trying to include her and 591 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 7: sometimes forces her presence in whatever. 592 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: We want to do. 593 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 7: We know she'll make sure to be around for whatever 594 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 7: we do.

It's not just like we have the ability 675 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 8: to be detached from it and be like, oh, this 676 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 8: is clearly it, but it's like it's a delicate dance 677 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 8: when you're dealing with your own family and your future 678 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 8: in laws and like trying to maintain some symbols of 679 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 8: peace that you can carry on into the future. 680 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 6: But it's like when it comes to this. 681 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 8: It's like the sister in law outwardly hates op In 682 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 8: in disgust, not just like I don't like you, in 683 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 8: like a like. 684 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 2: She's viciously right. But Opie says, I guess that was 685 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 2: the last straw for him, and he just said that 686 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: won't happen. 687 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:01,479 Speaker 7: Hold on, I like this. We love a growth, ark, 688 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 7: we love a growth. Our husband's doing it right down. 689 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 2: So now his. 690 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 7: Mom now says that she won't go. His dad wants 691 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 7: us to talk to his daughter to lay out everything 692 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 7: that happened, because she probably doesn't see anything wrong with 693 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 7: her behavior, and that she probably didn't mean to be 694 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 7: really disrepectable, that we might be perceiving things wrong, and 695 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 7: that we need to go figure things out so we 696 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 7: can all be a family. But my fiance and I 697 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 7: were very hurt and mad about his mom's reaction, so 698 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 7: we just ended up leaving and they said we'll talk 699 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 7: later this week to have that sit down talk. At 700 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 7: this point, we don't know what's going to happen. We 701 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 7: still have to pay for around fifteen thousand dollars of 702 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 7: the remaining things for our wedding. So we are considering 703 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 7: paying for it ourselves because we won't ask them for 704 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 7: the money they offered anymore. Our invitations have been sent, 705 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 7: all of the guests already have their plane tickets and 706 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 7: accommodations booked, and we do want to have the wedding 707 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 7: we dreamed of, but this is all very overwhelming. We 708 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 7: talked about just going somewhere the two of us and 709 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 7: getting married. He doesn't want his parents to go anywhere, 710 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 7: but I know he's heard and upset. 711 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 2: I don't want him to regret that. LA. That's the 712 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 2: update I have for now. 713 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 7: I guess we'll talk about it more over the next 714 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 7: few days and figure out what to do if we 715 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 7: keep moving forward with the wedding planning, or if we 716 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 7: just cancel everything and let our guests know.

Mark proposed with a beautiful 840 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,320 Speaker 7: four K diamond on Christmas. Kara started planning almost immediately. 841 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 7: They paid for the entire wedding on their own, so 842 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 7: no one can make any input, and they didn't like 843 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 7: but did openly listen to suggestions. I'm just loving this 844 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 7: so far. They did choose a beautiful location on the 845 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,760 Speaker 7: other coast. Kara originally wanted a destination wedding, but opted 846 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 7: for something local so my daughter and I could attend. 847 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 7: She chose me for her nidive honor, and our closest 848 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 7: friends Amber and Savannah were her other bridesmaids. 849 00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 2: My daughter was her flower girl. 850 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 7: Victoria always disliked Kara, and I believe Victoria is the 851 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 7: mother in law. I believe no one knows why Kara 852 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 7: is lovely until you piss her off.

Victoria and 856 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 7: Mario are a traditional at dhaliana Catholic family from the country. 857 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 7: Both were born in Italy and still hold the traditional values. 858 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 2: But Mario just wants his son to be happy. 859 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 7: Kara went from went to Kleinfeld for a wedding dress 860 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 7: for shopping, one dress for the ceremony, form fitting, and 861 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 7: one for the reception. 862 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:40,800 Speaker 2: Flowy and girly. 863 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 6: Oh. 864 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 7: I was there via video chat because I couldn't jump 865 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 7: on a plane and go.

Elise 1425 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 3: and Nick arrived earlier than us and walked the entire 1426 01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 3: thing before meeting out with us. The whole time, Alise 1427 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,360 Speaker 3: would not stop complaining, putting me in a sour mood. 1428 01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:35,240 Speaker 3: They left with barely a goodbye, and Alex asked me 1429 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 3: if I wanted to go another lap around. 1430 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:43,960 Speaker 4: I said, no Ah, just ruin the plase sense, and. 1431 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 3: I looked at the window and cried the entire way home, 1432 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:50,320 Speaker 3: wishing I had never invited Elise to join us. Nick 1433 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,480 Speaker 3: then proposed to Alise on Christmas Day. Just a few 1434 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 3: weeks later. Alex then proposed to me in our living 1435 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,520 Speaker 3: room in May, since he wanted to give a sister 1436 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,400 Speaker 3: a few mon being engaged and having a spotlight before 1437 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 3: proposing to me. So here's the story. So, after we 1438 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,880 Speaker 3: were both engaged, Alisa and I were talking about wedding plans, 1439 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:11,320 Speaker 3: and I decided to try and put my dislike for 1440 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 3: her aside and try to like her as she was 1441 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 3: going to be my family. She asked about my preferred 1442 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 3: wedding date, planned wedding to colors, what songs I was 1443 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 3: thinking of for our first dance, and so on. She 1444 01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 3: said that she had no idea what she wanted to do. 1445 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 3: I told her that I had been thinking of doing 1446 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:28,080 Speaker 3: an autumn wedding with the date that would be easy 1447 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 3: to remember. I knew I wanted to use Burgundy my 1448 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 3: favorite color, and roses my favorite flower. I told her 1449 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 3: at the time that I had a few contenders for 1450 01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 3: the first dance song. I wanted it to be from 1451 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 3: the nineteen fifties. I told her my dream date was 1452 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 3: nine twenty two, twenty two, and that I was thinking 1453 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:44,840 Speaker 3: about going south to get married because most of my 1454 01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 3: family lived further south and I would rather that they 1455 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 3: didn't have to drive the entire way. About two weeks later, 1456 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 3: she announced that she got a date and a venue. 1457 01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 3: She was going to have her wedding at a local farm, 1458 01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 3: and it was going to be on nine twenty three, 1459 01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,120 Speaker 3: twenty two. She said that she wanted to do the 1460 01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 3: twenty second, but the venue was already booked for that day. 1461 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 3: I rolled my eyes, but didn't say anything. Since I 1462 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 3: was still looking at venues and a date was easy 1463 01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 3: to change. I helped the lease with designing save the 1464 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 3: dates and invites. Why yeah, why she stole your date? 1465 01:08:17,120 --> 01:08:19,960 Speaker 4: Let her friend for her figure it out, don't help her. 1466 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,280 Speaker 3: Later, I asked Alex if he wanted to help pick 1467 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 3: a wedding date, since he already knew that his sister 1468 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 3: had taken the date that I wanted. He said that 1469 01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 3: he wanted to give a sister at least a year 1470 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,200 Speaker 3: of being married before we got married. 1471 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:31,360 Speaker 4: There is a trend there. 1472 01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 3: I agreed to go ahead with the plan and found 1473 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,479 Speaker 3: a venue I liked about eight hours south and booked 1474 01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 3: it for eleven eleven twenty three. I wasn't planning on 1475 01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 3: doing save the dates or anything until after Elise's wedding. 1476 01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 3: I kept looking at different ideas, continuing to talk to 1477 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 3: Aalise about wedding planning. Nick asked Alex to be his 1478 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,280 Speaker 3: best man, and Alex's half brother and other best friend 1479 01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,960 Speaker 3: were asked to be groomsmen. Alise asked her sister to 1480 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:55,840 Speaker 3: be her bridesmaid. I was the only one that wasn't 1481 01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,479 Speaker 3: part of the wedding party. Alise even went on bumble 1482 01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 3: to find another bridesmaid to make an even number since 1483 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,920 Speaker 3: she only had one friend who was made of honor. 1484 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:06,080 Speaker 4: Was I offended that I wasn't asked. 1485 01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 3: I would be like bamboozled if someone was like, yeah, 1486 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:12,679 Speaker 3: I went on bumble friend instead of asking you right? 1487 01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:13,840 Speaker 4: Yeah? A little? 1488 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 3: Did I find it funny that she went on bumble 1489 01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,840 Speaker 3: to find someone to be her bridesway? Definitely, three months 1490 01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 3: before wedding, I found out that I was pregnant, and 1491 01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 3: we decided to change her wedding date to before I 1492 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 3: had a baby. My husband thought that conceiving a baby 1493 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 3: out of wedlock was okay, but not giving birth to 1494 01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 3: said baby. I looked around and found a local venue 1495 01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 3: that did small elopement style weddings and a nice reception venue, 1496 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 3: and started to cancel the plans we had already set 1497 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 3: and planned for a New Year's Eve wedding. I wasn't 1498 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,599 Speaker 3: paying much attention to Elise or her wedding at the time. 1499 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 3: I was too busy planning the rest of my own life. 1500 01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:48,120 Speaker 3: Three weeks before her wedding, at least tells me that 1501 01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 3: she still hasn't found her first dance song. 1502 01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,280 Speaker 4: I was surprised by that. I told her that I 1503 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 4: just looked at. 1504 01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 3: A theme for what I wanted and narrowed it down 1505 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:56,800 Speaker 3: until I found the song that I wanted, which I 1506 01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:59,679 Speaker 3: ended up choosing Can't Help Falling in Love by Elvis, 1507 01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 3: which held a lot of meaning to me. It's a 1508 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:02,840 Speaker 3: classic wedding song it is. 1509 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 5: I really hope that she didn't tell her that, though 1510 01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:06,200 Speaker 5: I'm so scared. 1511 01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:10,200 Speaker 4: I told her the exact song that I chose at 1512 01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 4: a certain point. 1513 01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:14,480 Speaker 3: At a certain point, O P, you're causing your own problems, 1514 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 3: Like obviously she's the a hole, but like you're given, 1515 01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:20,799 Speaker 3: you're light in the spark, you're giving her the matches. 1516 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:21,680 Speaker 4: I wish that. 1517 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 5: Op knew that she would like copy everything ahead of 1518 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 5: time before she told her anything, and. 1519 01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:27,839 Speaker 4: Then she could give her information. 1520 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:30,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, she's like, oh, yeah, our wedding song is gonna. 1521 01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 4: Be Cotton eight Joe.

It's the easiest go to. Beautiful. Yeah. 1537 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 3: A week before the wedding, there was some drama with 1538 01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:15,400 Speaker 3: Nick's side of the family, and they were uninvited from 1539 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:18,200 Speaker 3: the wedding. At least wanted to change her entire wedding 1540 01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 3: plans and asked me what I was doing. I told 1541 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,200 Speaker 3: her what my wedding plans were, and she smiled, looked 1542 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 3: at me said I like that. 1543 01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:26,719 Speaker 4: I think I'm going to do that. I was slack, John. 1544 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 3: She actually told me she was going to straight up 1545 01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:30,479 Speaker 3: steal my wedding plans. 1546 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:31,680 Speaker 4: Wait, that's when she gets up. 1547 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 3: But with it being a week before the wedding, she 1548 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,400 Speaker 3: wasn't able to change the plans without losing thousands of dollars, 1549 01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 3: so she decided to stick to her original plans. After that, 1550 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 3: I asked Alex what color I should wear to the wedding. 1551 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:44,600 Speaker 3: He said that he was wearing a dark red and 1552 01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:47,240 Speaker 3: black tux, but it wasn't It was a black suit 1553 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 3: with a burgundy vest in tie. I was planning on 1554 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:53,639 Speaker 3: doing burgundy and navy as our wedding colors. I had 1555 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,920 Speaker 3: a burgundy dress with flowers on it that I wore 1556 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 3: to a different wedding that I decided to wear to 1557 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 3: the wedding. Alex then told me I was invited to 1558 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,960 Speaker 3: hang out with Elise, mother in law, and the bride'smaids 1559 01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 3: at the venue as they got ready, as Alex would 1560 01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 3: be getting ready with Nick and the other groomsmen. I 1561 01:12:07,439 --> 01:12:09,439 Speaker 3: am pretty sure it was not Elise who invited me 1562 01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:12,000 Speaker 3: to join her, as when I showed up, she glared 1563 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:13,960 Speaker 3: at me from the corner of her eye and didn't 1564 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 3: say a single word to me. I spent the time 1565 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 3: hanging out with the bridesmaids and having a wonderful time. 1566 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 3: The weddings started and I sat with Alex's dad and 1567 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,760 Speaker 3: his girlfriend Grace. The ceremony went off lovely, but then 1568 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 3: it was time for the photography. The photographer said that 1569 01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 3: it was time for the wedding party and the family 1570 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,439 Speaker 3: to take pictures. Everyone else was to go inside and 1571 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,679 Speaker 3: wait for the reception. I asked if I was needed 1572 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,120 Speaker 3: for the photos, and they said that the bride's brother's 1573 01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 3: fiance was not family. Grace asked if she was needed, 1574 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 3: and she was told that the bride's father's long term 1575 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:47,160 Speaker 3: fourteen years girlfriend was not family. The aunts and uncles, 1576 01:12:47,240 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 3: with Elise's permission, asked if they could get a picture 1577 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,760 Speaker 3: of the entire family, and they were told that the 1578 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 3: ants and uncles were not family. I heard all of 1579 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:57,880 Speaker 3: the complaints while waiting for the reception. I wasn't bothered 1580 01:12:57,880 --> 01:12:59,599 Speaker 3: by it, but the rest of the family was very 1581 01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 3: offended it. The aunts and uncles were already offended that 1582 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 3: none of the cousins were invited to the wedding. The 1583 01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,519 Speaker 3: wedding party finished up with the photos and it was 1584 01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,840 Speaker 3: time to sit for the reception to start. I didn't 1585 01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:12,439 Speaker 3: know anybody at the wedding except for the family and 1586 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:14,599 Speaker 3: the wedding party. I was looking for somewhere to sit 1587 01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 3: when I noticed that nobody was sitting with Alex's dad 1588 01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 3: in Grace, so I sat with them. The coordinator announced 1589 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 3: it was time for the first dance. At the first 1590 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:25,000 Speaker 3: few notes, I knew I looked right at Alex, and 1591 01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:28,040 Speaker 3: once he noticed, he looked at me. I was furious, 1592 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 3: seething she used my song. I turned to Grace and 1593 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:34,400 Speaker 3: told her that Elise stole my song, and I told 1594 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:36,559 Speaker 3: her I was going to use that song. I tried 1595 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:38,600 Speaker 3: to ignore the anger boiling up at me as I 1596 01:13:38,640 --> 01:13:41,719 Speaker 3: tried to enjoy the wedding. The food was terrible. Nobody 1597 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 3: danced when they opened the dance floor, and the cake 1598 01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 3: was as dry as the rest of the reception. When 1599 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 3: stuff was winding down and I was getting ready to leave, 1600 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:51,519 Speaker 3: I grabbed Alex and pulled Nick outside. I asked him 1601 01:13:51,560 --> 01:13:53,720 Speaker 3: if he knew that Alise stole our first dance song. 1602 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:55,880 Speaker 3: He told me that he had no idea, and that 1603 01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,240 Speaker 3: she sent him the song about a week before, saying 1604 01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,280 Speaker 3: that she wanted to use it as their song. I 1605 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,519 Speaker 3: told him that she asked me what song I was 1606 01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 3: using three weeks ago, and I told her that exact song, 1607 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 3: and that alisead told me at least a dozen times 1608 01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,920 Speaker 3: that she doesn't even like Elvis. Nick apologized to me, 1609 01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 3: but I decided that it wasn't enough. She ruined the 1610 01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,519 Speaker 3: song for me. I decided that I wanted to ruin 1611 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:17,680 Speaker 3: the song for her. 1612 01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 4: Oh I forgot about the title on this. I'm so excited. 1613 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:23,680 Speaker 3: I laughed when I heard that Elise got COVID on 1614 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,839 Speaker 3: their honeymoon in Jamaica. I continued to plan my wedding. 1615 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:30,240 Speaker 3: I decided that I would include Elise as much as possible. 1616 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:32,240 Speaker 3: I wanted to keep her on a tight leash. I 1617 01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 3: asked Alex if she or his other sister would like 1618 01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:36,680 Speaker 3: to be bridesmaids. He said no, so I didn't ask them. 1619 01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 3: I invited them to every event and invited them to 1620 01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:41,680 Speaker 3: get their hair and makeup done before the ceremony. I 1621 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 3: wanted her to feel as included and welcomed as possible. 1622 01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:47,560 Speaker 3: I told my photographer to get as many photos of 1623 01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:50,200 Speaker 3: the family as possible, but to limit the amount of 1624 01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 3: photos she got of elise. My photographer was a friend 1625 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,320 Speaker 3: and had already heard everything about the drama that occurred 1626 01:14:56,360 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 3: with Aalisea's wedding. I moved songs around since I could 1627 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 3: no longer use that song as my first dance song. 1628 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 3: I used it as the song for us walking into 1629 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 3: the reception instead. The wedding day came and everything went 1630 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:09,960 Speaker 3: without a hitch. I asked her if she wanted to 1631 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:12,240 Speaker 3: join us for the wedding pictures, but she declined and 1632 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 3: went to hang out with her dogs. 1633 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:14,240 Speaker 6: Her word. 1634 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,679 Speaker 3: Alex had Nick as as best man and his half 1635 01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:19,240 Speaker 3: brother and other best friend as groomsman, and I had 1636 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:21,559 Speaker 3: my best friend as maid of honor and another friend 1637 01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 3: as a bridesmaid. I wanted a small wedding party and 1638 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,519 Speaker 3: didn't care if there was an odd number. Most of 1639 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 3: my friends weren't the type to enjoy being in a 1640 01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:31,000 Speaker 3: bridal party, and I was just happy to have them 1641 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:33,799 Speaker 3: come to the wedding. I invited all of Alex's cousins 1642 01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 3: to the wedding and let the aunts and uncles know that. 1643 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:36,639 Speaker 4: I told my. 1644 01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:39,759 Speaker 3: Photographer to get as many pictures of the family as possible, 1645 01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 3: including them.

What she 1667 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:35,680 Speaker 3: said next, I don't think I will ever forget I 1668 01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:38,439 Speaker 3: see you used our first dance song. 1669 01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:39,200 Speaker 4: Oh god. 1670 01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:42,200 Speaker 3: I smiled at her and said, well, it was originally ours, 1671 01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 3: but I decided that it wasn't good enough for a 1672 01:16:44,360 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 3: first dance song. I watched her smile drop to a 1673 01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,840 Speaker 3: scowl as I beamed brighter and walked away from her 1674 01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 3: to talk to another group. She did not smile for 1675 01:16:52,400 --> 01:16:55,560 Speaker 3: the rest of the wedding. Everyone still tells me how lovely. 1676 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 4: My wedding was. 1677 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 3: There are no comments about Alsa's wedding. I got her 1678 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:00,960 Speaker 3: wedding pictures back a week later, and Alise didn't get 1679 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 3: hers back until June. Now, every year the weekend closest 1680 01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:06,760 Speaker 3: to a Lisa's anniversary, I plan a party. This year 1681 01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 3: was a baby shower. My friends and I still laugh 1682 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 3: at Alisa's face at my wedding when she tried to 1683 01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:14,120 Speaker 3: confront me for stealing her first dance song. 1684 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 4: And that is the end of that story. 1685 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:22,599 Speaker 5: Wow, honestly, really nice way. Yeah, to get revenge. 1686 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:24,040 Speaker 3: I thought there was like more revenge it was just 1687 01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 3: sort of being like, man, I didn't like it that 1688 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 3: much anymore. Yeah, but that is the end of that 1689 01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:29,479 Speaker 3: story and the end of this episode. 1690 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:30,080 Speaker 4: Whoa
