The NT way of making social events dramatically oversized.

It's just one big social event from the NT perspective; which makes no sense from an AS one.

The concept of marriage itself isn't so bad, it's just how NT's tend to blow up the wedding to unrealistic proportions.

Amen!

That's why you have to spice things up a bit. Honest, I've always been keen on the idea of paradropping in with my bride-to-be.

The girl I was dating up until recently, Kyuuchan, I bet she would love to do this, seeing as she's always wanted to go skydiving. What makes it even more epic is that she's agrophobic. (becoming addicted to adrenaline apparently is the best cure for an irrational fear of heights...)

I work in weddings part time doing photography, so I get to see people's mistakes and successes in weddings. I amazingly never get tired of it.

Make their day amazing, and one day Karma will pay it forward

I only went to a wedding and I didn't enjoy it. I ended the night alone on a broken tractor, drinking and laughing about what I was doing on a broken tractor while people of my age were dancing half mile away.

Weddings are totally opposite to my personality. I get annoyed because the amount of gifts, the amount of food and the amount of corny speeches and videos. I don't find them natural. I think a wedding have to be intimate. The genuine "Love" concept just disappears in the wedding maelstrom.

If some woman ever looks past your bitter attitude and agrees to marry you, OP, then when she plans the wedding you will be just like everyone else and wanting others to be happy for you, just as they want their friends to be happy for them.

Your hatred of weddings sounds like it's simple jealousy. I love weddings and am in fact helping one of the kids friends plan hers for February. Thank God that nobody we are hiring has the pissy attitude like you do!

Just because someone else finds love does not make it unfair that you haven't! From the posts you put up here, it's really obvious why you haven't. No girl in her right mind is going to get with a guy who gets his panties in a wad because someone else has a gf and he doesn't. If you can possibly change that attitude, then you have a chance to find somebody. If not, then get geared up to just spend the rest of the time hating the world for having something you don't.

I attended a wedding once, as my cousin's best man. I didn't get a list of my responsibilities, and I felt like I didn't fulfill the duties inherent in the role. I did give a speech like I was required to, I mentioned that I didn't really believe in "true love", with was apparently a rather touchy subject at a wedding. I guess they'll remember that part.

By the way, I knew a guy who got married at a laundromat. Hilarious.

Yeah mentioning you don't believe in true love in a speech at a wedding is prob not kosher :)

But generally a best man's only duties are to give the speech and to plan the bachelor party if the groom chooses to have one.

not every one finds true love. people can go thru life and not have a single relationship or they get married and divorced several times.
