naptownskinsfan Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I live in a peninsula community, and have a wonderful view of the Chesapeake Bay (and almost right on top of it) but only drawback is, at one point, there is only one way in and out. So the entire community is without power during dinner time, because a tree fell at, you guessed it, the only road in and out. So no one can get food delivered, and dinner now has to wait until a few hours from now. If it had happened a quarter mile down the road, you could get around it with side streets.

They should keep better care of the trees around that section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOUCAN Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 My fiance is requesting that I be in attendance at the bridal shower. Does this happen? I thought I'm not supposed to be at these things? I was going to get drunk and go tubing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a friend do this, but they set it up so the guys were outside grilling or in the basement. tbh it worked really well. As for just tagging along, that's a terrible idea.

I've never been invited to another one. Works like a charm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her best friends fiancee isn't coming down from Buffalo, only one of her 3 sisters is married and one has a fiancee that never shows up to anything.

TOUCAN Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I just read the etiquette is I make an appearance toward the end or whatever have you which I'm cool with, but this is not a day for me on the heels of her party and weekend away with the ladies.

I mean, let’s be real. Are any of her friends or family going to GAF if you show up? Of course not, you’ll just be getting in the way of gossip, sammich making and whatever else women folk do when us men are off doing our thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely did not make an appearance at my wife's. Also, don't they know you already? Why do they have to see you to approve of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
