Dissapointed

What do you mean by they aren't being supportive?

Remember that no one will be as excited as you and your FH for the big day! My girls planned a great bach and shower for me, but I try to stay away from wedding talk a lot of the time, because I know they have busy lives too.

Repeat after me: no one is going to be as excited for your wedding as you are.

Movie and TV set up ridiculous expectations of what a bridal party should do for their bride. What are you expecting from them? How have they not been supportive?

My mom planned my bachlorette and only two bridesmaids went.

I'm sorry! That sucks. Have they been bridesmaids before? Do they know what typically happens with the bach & bridal? My mom planned and paid for 100% of my bridal shower, but I was happy since I didn't want any of that responsibility on my bridesmaids.

View Quoted Comment I agree with this. As much as we wish they'd be as excited as we are, they just aren't.

Don’t be disappointed..... you are going to marry the man of your dreams. Your going to look gorgeous and all eyes will be on you.

unfortunately it’s true everyone is not going to be as excited as you and people just get tired of hearing about your wedding.

Even though it was only two people did you have fun or try to? where did you ladies go?

Sometimes a small intimate gathering is a lot safer, and less drama.and you don’t have to worry about leaving someone behind

How are they supposed to be showing support when your wedding day isn't here yet? Them having their dress and showing up on wedding day is their only requirement. Anything extra is great but nothing they have to do. No one else will be as excited for your wedding day as you will be. They have lives too but I am sure they will be front and center on the special day!

Unsupportive in what way? No supporting the relationship? Or not checking in to see if you need help with anything. Honestly, i've done all of my planning on my own so far and probably will continue to do most things on my own and in my free time (i'm a control freak haha).

I've had this problem with my best friend who was going to be my MOH. She never inquired about the wedding unless i said something about it. Just didn't care. I think it can be hard for some people because of their lives. I think my friend had a bit of envy within her and it made it hard for her to be happy for me 100%. That's something that happens with people and you end up seeing who will be able to support you or not. We ended up not being friends because she though my fiance liked her and never told me about it until 2 months before the wedding. She would also express how jealous she was. I think she may have had a crush on my husband or it made her feel nice that he was interested after seeing how he treated me. Turns out it wasn't him commenting on her pictures and she never apologized for accusing him or keeping it from me. She was not meant to move into the next phase. Sometimes, people show who they are and sometimes you have to realize that they are human. It's up to you to figure out if you wanna be patient with them or take heed to the lesson and move on. Trust me, your situation is a natural thing. Engagements and weddings can bring out many emotions in people. Whether it's jealousy, disappointment or they just dobn't care. so many factors.

I do get it. I feel that way too
