Why is my cousin so jealous of me getting married?

Because she's not getting married. The thing is is that I pin your cousin and yeah we have a great job in a lot going for her but a lot of women want to be married in that something that they've wanted for years. I don't know her father's Health Bolivia swore she is worried that he won't be around to see her wedding day. At the end of the day I don't know if you've ever been there but sometimes you can be really happy for someone's wedding but same time jealous that you're not having your wedding. She may be in a good relationship but I think the day she's not engaged right now. I'm just having you see the other side of things because honestly I've been there where I've been really happy for my friends getting married but the same time inside I was also jealous because it wasn't my special day and I thought it was a day that I would never have. Of course she should be happy for you and she should be to focus on you and I do want to congratulate you on your upcoming day but sometimes for us as woman it's hard to See what others have and not feel a little bit of jealousy I think.

I think maybe it was directed more towards her SO trying to hint that she wants him to hurry up and ask before her dad passes. Unless she’s done similar things before

Not that it makes it ok she's saying that but how old is she ? If she's graduating college she's probably close to that age where all her friends or people she went to school with are getting married and she's not. It's a sour feeling and weddings bring it out even more. I'm sure she's happy for you , weddings just bring out all sorts of emotions in people. Enjoy your moment!

Sounds like there is a message there that has nothing to do with you. Enjoy your wedding, start your new life, but maybe include some time to spend one on one with your cousin.

Agree with this. If anything, this sounds like an issue between her and her partner.

I guess I missed something, I don’t see how the post has anything to do with you? But either way, I have a great job and masters and I’m married, and being successful in my career was in no way equivalent to getting married. I worked hard for my education and as long as I went to class, paid my student loans, and did my homework i was going to be successful. But getting married was deeply personal and felt completely tied to my self-worth. I can’t make someone love me, not cheat on me, want the same goals on the same timeline I do, etc. it’s completely different. Enjoy your weekend of course, and best wishes! But I think a little empathy is fair.

This doesn’t sound like it’s about you at all. It sounds like she wants to get married and is thinking about the possibility of her dad not being around when it happens. Sounds like that’s an issue with her FS not seeing eye to eye on a wedding timeline.

I agree with pp sometimes I don’t really think it’s about jealousy. Sometimes it’s just a self reflection upon oneself because I know when I got married my friends all felt it was a reality hit in their eyes because I was the first to get married and it made them see that oh my god we are at marriage age now xD and it made them reflect that wow we are getting older and all really growing up in

I agree with some PPs, that doesn’t seem directed at you. If she hasn’t been petty to you at all, I wouldn’t read into it.

View Quoted Comment She has before and has been judgemental of my DH up till this Christmas. I’m not letting it take away the joy of the occasion; I’ll reach out to her after.

A little more background on this: she and I have never really gotten along for a variety of reasons. I’ve been in her place before too. There was a bunch of family drama at the rehearsal on top of this. Tomorrow will go off without a hitch.

What? Why do you think that's about you? How is that a dig at you?

I think you are reading waaaaay too much into this. I don't see how this has anything to do with you.

Seriously, let it go.
