She told me she forgave me and accepted my hug.

mystes posted:The way he describes it is that she gave him a weird look when he asked for a fork and then asked the wife if there was a problem in a way that seems to have been in response to him asking for a fork. OP posted this about his wife in the comments: quote:She is people pleaser. Which makes me want to act more like this to balance things out. So we can probably guess. Also lots of Hindu nationalist, Islamophobic, and sexist poo poo in his post history, so, yeah.

AITA for putting people on a "no drinking" list for my wedding?quote:I (22f) am getting married in 2 months. At our wedding, we have an open bar from when food starts to the end of the evening. The bar has beer, wine, and a specialty cocktail. My husband (23m) and I do not drink much, if ever, because we both take medication. There will be soda and water available as well.

If they've caused incidents after getting drunk but OP feels the need to invite them anyway I don't really see the problem with getting them to agree not to drink and telling the bartender not to serve them?

Another day, another "test" that backfires. AITAH for breaking up with my girlfriend because she tried to “teach me a lesson”? quote:My (26M) ex girlfriend (25F) went out with some friends last weekend. I usually wait up and pick her up or at least make sure she got to her apartment safe before I go to bed but I had a flu and kept falling in and out of sleep that night.

I think the open bar wedding op shouldn't have an open bar and invite the problematic alcoholics at the same time. Either don't invite them or switch to a cash bar. They can cut down on the amount of drinking among the 100 guests with a cash bar.

Clark Nova posted:lol wasn't there one a few months ago where the couple announced the wedding wouldn't have a bar and nobody wanted to go? Iirc, that couple also lied about it until after everyone had already arranged rides/hotel rooms, and had a bit on the schedule labeled "cocktail hour," so the guests were understandably a bit annoyed. DemoneeHo posted:I think the open bar wedding op shouldn't have an open bar and invite the problematic alcoholics at the same time. Either don't invite them or switch to a cash bar. That sounds like the worst of both worlds, since having to pay won't really stop the alcoholics, but will inconvenience everyone else.

Did she even really check out? They talk monthly. I don't have siblings, but some of my friends talk to their sibling less often than once a month, and I don't hear them complaining about not being close to their siblings. Adults have poo poo going on in their lives, and it can be hard to stay in touch especially when you live in different places. I have people that I consider good friends (and I hope the feeling is mutual) that I talk to less often - you get together maybe a couple of times a year when you're in the same place, but otherwise only call/text/email each other occasionally. I don't know, it just sounds weird to me.

If they're truly raging alcoholics and you have an open bar then your "do not serve" list is going to do jack poo poo.

Guy who wants to exclude five specific people from drinking is the rear end in a top hat. Let’s game this out. First of all:quote:I told them that I am tired of having to plan ahead for people's addictions and all of them are capable of not drinking alcohol. If this was true, you would either have a dry wedding, or one with booze but no “except for these five people” list So what he’s got set up now is -Bartenders who now have to be cops, and aren’t getting paid to do that. They’re paid to serve drinks and maybe card people. Policing OP’s family is not in any bartender’s job description. That’s what security is for, which it sounds like they have. -So if these people are alcoholics, they will be drinking at this event. Whether that’s having someone else get their drinks for them or bringing their own, no alcoholic is just gonna white knuckle their way through it. It is not within the realm of reasonable expectations that this plan will prevent the potential problem guests from drinking. -Again, if they are alcoholics, the act of excluding them is going to create as much or more drama when they’re sober, and then even more when they inevitably get drunk (and smug for outsmarting the world’s dumbest plan) -everybody else is going to remember the rules, and the drama that came from them, more than they would the person being asked to leave or being escorted out if they overdrink. Your wedding isn’t a kindergarten class. You are going to create a weird loving vibe for everyone with this plan!
