Rant: why do people get so jealous!?

Stop talking to these people or change the subject. "Oh, we're not that far into planning. Say, did you watch Survivor last night?" And don't bring up your wedding to people that aren't intimately involved with it (like your parents or bridal party) -- helps cut out random "advice."

Great advice Reenski, unfortunately when it's someone in your wedding party being the jealous one it's difficult.. LOL hopefully that's not the case for you Future Mrs. B :o) ignore the haters and like Reenski said change the subject.

If it's someone in your bridal party that's giving unsolicited advice, "Thanks for that suggestion, we'll take it into consideration" and then keep moving to the next subject. Is that BP member acting differently than they did before? If they exhibited that behavior beforehand, it was something to keep in mind before choosing them.

But what's done is done, but other than telling them the dress/suit and when to show up, there's no REQUIREMENT to speak to them that much about your wedding. Not as easy, yes, but still possible.

Honestly, I get jealous of other brides....well just one in particular cause she acts like she is so great and i always ask her how it's going and she never asks me. It's one of our groomsmen's fiance. They are getting married 2 weeks before us and FH is in their wedding as well. I know it's so bad and petty. no one knows I feel this way...not even FH. SHHHH. I just hope she comes to my wedding and thinks.."oh I wish we did that." Ok, I will stop being ugly now..sorry, not sorry

I think no matter what there's always going to be jealousy wether its a sister, friend, cousin etc..I think they may wish it was them and are upset because its someone else getting married before them so they have to be negative..also I think it depends on personality some people are just negative and get jealous about everything lol

My mom. She is always downgrading EVERYTHING. I stopped telling her anything. She had asked about cost and I told her and she flipped. (She is not helping with it) She said once "I wish me and your father did it the way you are" so I know she is just jealous.

I did, and still am. One of FH's coworkers got engaged a week before we did. She got mad when they started a weekly newspaper with work related news and our engagement was announced. She told FH that it wasn't fair that she got engaged first and we got to be in the work newsletter. It's not our fault the people at work decided to start it right after our engagement and not hers.

I saw FH's coworker two weeks after our engagement at a happy hour and when she saw my ring she said " Oh my gosh your diamond is bigger than mine! I'm so jealous!" right after she said "I'm just kidding, I'm not" but FH called her out and said " No you're not." She turned around and walked away so fast! lol!

It's kind of weird talking to her now, but good thing I don't see her too often.

I always get women explaining why they're not engaged yet! People never did this to me until I got engaged and now it's like everyone around me needs to justify why they're boyfriend hasn't proposed!

I find that most people don't want to hear about my wedding. There are a few people that I talk to pretty regular and since I've gotten engaged they are clearly not interested in my wedding. Any other topic is alright, but not my wedding or happiness since my engagement. I just made the decision to not talk about my wedding at all.

Some people honestly are messed up and think they deserve things at a certain time or age. I say don't be the ugly one. You know you are doing it right and unlike those people who do what they do out of jealousy, out of spite, out of rushing to beat others to having things sooner, that is no way to truly be satisfied with oneself long term.

I have a lot of coworkers asking me then telling me their stories, to me that was a bonding moment more so. It is not something you share with others of how it happened.
