i had 2 sisters that did this. One had a roommate that had to wake up periodically throughout the night to check her basal body temp because for natural family planning reasons. The other was matched up with a friend of mine from college.

they both had a 70+ aged couple, who were session leaders, that talked about sex...a lot.

We're indifferent about the sil. She means really well, but she's over the top catholic and gets bombed after 2 glasses of wine at family events and then gets super emotional. She's hot, but i'm not sure she's hot enough to put up with that stuff on the reg.

That doesn't exactly sound indifferent.

(unless the hotness factor gets her from problem to indifference)

yep, I had that couple, the big takeaway was whenever you get into a fight, and can't work through it, you are both supposed to take your clothes off, at least that's what the old couple said.

Yesterday at easter, they said: "Come here guys. We have a surprise for you. We wanted to give you your wedding present early". So I was like: "Cool!" We open this big bag and it's two huge picture frames with the initial F on them. I'm thinking, damn, that's pretty cool. Go Fanning! Then he said: "Read the card". So we read it and it took me awhile to see wtf I was reading and then I came a crossed it on the last paragraph. I was like "Oh, this sounds cool. Thank you so much." Thinking the whole time in my head :"FUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!". Ms Wacky was like: "Neat. So how does this even work?" He was very vague with his answer and said that they did it before their wedding and it was the best thing ever for them. Right when we left, we got in the car and literally said "eff! This is exactly why we didn't want the wedding in the catholic church. We don't wanna do classes and we don't want it over the top religious".

Yeah, I mean, we have some stuff in common. We lean on each other a lot at family events. We both started dating into the family around the same time and she's a nurse and has really bad anxiety like me, so she talks to me about best practices for it. So I definitely don't hate her, but she can be a lot to handle at times.

Wait? Why was the lady doing "natural family planning" before her Catholic wedding?

If mrs fanning doesn't want to go, either, then just don't go. How hard is that, fanman? Sheesh

michigancat · « **Reply #688 on:** March 28, 2016, 03:51:09 PM »

yeah. In all honesty it's probably a good idea to go but you need to eloquently tell your in-laws to get mumped if you don't want to go.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #689 on:** March 28, 2016, 03:51:57 PM »

I mean, I wonder how much they spent on this stuff. We don't want to be rude. They'll ask us all about it and i'll have like no feedback. You guys are right tho.

If you let her brother run your life before you get married, then you're screwed.

Man up and tell him you don't believe in Jesus.

It would be good for you for some of the reasons already mentioned. But your bil is kind of a dick for doing this without prior consent. Rape?

who cares, you shouldn't plan a weekend for someone (Friday 5pm - Sunday 6 pm) without asking the people going if they would want to do that. and if I remember correctly (been like 8 years ago), it wasn't that expensive.

Looks like rooms of 4 tiny beds.

At this point, you have to go and live tweet this thing

Mrs. Gooch · « **Reply #698 on:** March 28, 2016, 04:03:21 PM »

Wacky, when you do the thing I said about getting the credit, make sure to tell B-I-L that it was ok but not something you would want to do again....that way they don't try to buy you a 1st anniversary gift like you are going to get them.

I just asked my buddy if that's the same place he had to go to and he said yes. Then I told him who bought it for us and he goes: "eff him. Seriously tho fanning, eff him!!!"
