You make absolutely no sense. You contradict yourself so openly and don’t even notice
You make absolutely no sense. You contradict yourself so openly and don’t even noticeNot sure why you’re so offended by it that you’re willing to be insulting but honestly, I’ll take being rude and having no decorum or class on this one. No i don’t want to say congratulations because 9/10 I haven’t seen them in years and didn’t even know they were in a relationship until I got the wedding invite. Obviously if it was a close family member or friend then I would make an effort but a cousin who I haven’t seen in 10 years who has invited me to the evening party out of obligation. No, not wasting my money on it. I’ll say congratulations to their face if i attend, even though they won’t notice or care whether I’m there or not. I am one of 19 cousins. Some of whom are on their second or third marriages. Yes I could send a card but truthfully I don’t care enough to and it’s not like they will notice or care anyway.

I could say no to the invite but social etiquette dictates you still have to send a card and present to say congratulations cause you haven’t attended
What? where have i contradicted myself?You make absolutely no sense. You contradict yourself so openly and don’t even notice
Really? I mean I wouldn't expect people to send a card if they're not attending and definitely not get a present. But saying congratulations doesn't cost anything so don't see what the issue is with just saying congrats, I'm not attending, and moving on. If you're taking the approach that you're not saying congratulations cause you've not seen them in 10 years then to me you're treating them as complete strangers in which case yeah fair enough, don't say anything or pay attention to any expectations.Not sure why you’re so offended by it that you’re willing to be insulting but honestly, I’ll take being rude and having no decorum or class on this one.

I hate to be a member of the anti fun brigade, but what it he had an allergic reaction to the chillies? Tampering with food and drink is never a good idea, you never know how a person will react.my husband keeps drinking my cans of drink when I open them, but always says he doesn't want any fizzy drinks when I buying them. So last night I thought I would be clever and put chilli oil in the can, he hates spice.
It fizzed exploded, all over my nice white sitting room. Karma.
My husband isn’t allergic to chilli though…I hate to be a member of the anti fun brigade, but what it he had an allergic reaction to chillies? Tampering with food and drink is never a good idea, you never know how a person will react.
That’s mad, I was married a few months angk and our guests were really generous . We are Irish so money is the norm, we didn’t receive any gifts other than frames etc along side money from family.
However, we have ordered (was waiting for photos back) wildflower seed thank you cards , and photos of the guests to enclose with them to show our appreciation. Immediately after the wedding we text each guest to thank them.
The same way I couldn’t imagine not providing a gift or card, I couldn’t imagine not thanking my guests. Terrible behaviour.
I think she/he/they'd know if their husband was allergic to somethingI hate to be a member of the anti fun brigade, but what it he had an allergic reaction to the chillies? Tampering with food and drink is never a good idea, you never know how a person will react.
Minor update: we were talking on video chat yesterday and he brought the subject round to me sending him moneyI have been online dating a guy who is in another country For a couple of months. He has made little “jokes” along the way about me sending him money, which I don’t find funny at all but I decided to ignore because I thought we had a genuine connection. Then yesterday out of nowhere he straight up asked me to send him £500 a month!! I was so pissed off but politely said no.
Now I have been thinking that I want to get some petty revenge on him…nothing horrendous, but enough to teach him a lesson. So I’m going to wait for him to bring up me sending him money again, and I’m going to say, oh well okay, send me your details then. I expect he will give me an email address to PayPal it. Then I am going to be like, okay I have sent the money through, did you get it? He will say no. I will then go back and forth and create a fake PayPal invoice email to show him and be like, well I’ve sent it, you should have it by now. Just to piss him offIs there anything else I can add to this scheme to make it more petty and vengeful?
Love this!! So I’d be so happy to think he’s even wasting his time setting up the wish list! What ever he puts up, go find a cheaper alternative and be like ‘getting great value’ this way… etc. There is dupes for almost everything!!! I so wanna helpMinor update: we were talking on video chat yesterday and he brought the subject round to me sending him moneyand I said, well how would I send it, by bank or…? He obviously hadn’t thought about that and was like oh um PayPal maybe, so I said well I’d need your email address for that wouldn’t I. Then he thought about it and said he could set up an Amazon wish list with stuff he wants on there, including gift cards!! Wtf. Is there any way of trolling him if he does send me an Amazon list?
Well I’m here for your suggestionsLove this!! So I’d be so happy to think he’s even wasting his time setting up the wish list! What ever he puts up, go find a cheaper alternative and be like ‘getting great value’ this way… etc. There is dupes for almost everything!!! I so wanna help
will he have to put a delivery address for the Amazon stuff? If yes - then you can troll him by signing him up for loads of leaflets/junk mail etc. personally I wouldn’t send him ANYTHING until you’ve got a piece of personal information from him. Even if it’s just an email address, you can sign him up to loads of spam through that!Minor update: we were talking on video chat yesterday and he brought the subject round to me sending him moneyand I said, well how would I send it, by bank or…?

I'm all for signing him up for Jehovah Witness visits and erectile disfunction info but on a serious note, he's a wrongun, you deserve far better: don't waste any more of your time and thoughts on him.Minor update: we were talking on video chat yesterday and he brought the subject round to me sending him moneyand I said, well how would I send it, by bank or…?

Legend!!!I don’t get on with one of my SILs and I certainly don’t lose sleep over it. Anyway 6 years ago, it all kicked off because I took the time to tell her all about herself and not once have I ever felt the need to apologise speaking the truth (and I’m definitely someone who will apologise if they’ve done wrong). Anyway since then every Christmas she sends my husband a Christmas card and writes “To (insert husband name) and Co” so completely ignores her niece and nephew and lumps them in the “Co” so my husband every year sends a card back and puts “(husband’s name”) & Co. and doesn’t put a stamp on it….every year she’s had to pay for the postage - you’d think she wouldn’t bother going to pick it up but she does every single time!
Footnote: husband is a postman so we have shit loads of stamps
Can you get a stock photo and tell him you have one you’re not using! Just to waste a little more of his timeWell I’m here for your suggestionsthe stuff he said he wanted was like home workout equipment, one of them was kind of resistance bands that you attach to a wall. Like this but thicker ropes and on a wall:

He showed these pull up bars he‘s installed in his ceiling and he said he would put the resistance rope things through thatImagine if he pulled the whole ceiling down in his apartment block
