I know a girl who got married a full 3 years ago and has since used a modified version of their wedding hashtag on every post. It’s something like #thehashtageverafter. Absolutely insufferable.
I think the equivalent for girls here would be for them to stop following “fashion” or “lifestyle” bloggers. Your clothes will never be good enough and no one is going to take high quality photos of you in perfect outfits in desirable locations. Just go ahead and unfollow for the sake of your self esteem.
I have a love/hate relationship with setting up friends. On one hand, if it works out, it really works TF out for you personally, to have another fun couple to do things with, but I also HATE being the middle man in someone else’s budding relationship (i.e. “so what did he say about me?” “is X going to be there?”). I always want to hand over the reigns after the introduction but that’s NEVER the way it really works.
Literally just had this conversation with my husband when we visited Chicago from Nashville. All we did Saturday was go out to bars and drink, which is exactly what we would have done if we’d stayed home. More likes on the ‘grams though.
Whether family money or just someone who actually makes a lot of their own money, something I’ve realized is that MOST people live beyond their means. I know plenty of people who make over 6 figures and take lavish vacations, but are drowning in debt and don’t have more than a couple hundred bucks in their savings account. Or at least that’s what I tell myself while I’m hate scrolling through their Snapchat stories on my lunch break.
He was. After unleashing a string of fire insults, the girls faces had turned from ‘in-on-the-joke’ to actual upset, and he looked at them and said “I feel like this is the FIRST time all night it’s dawned on y’all that you might actually look kinda stupid.” It was so good.
I went to a Michael Che show recently and a bachelorette party all dressed up legitimately as TODDLERS IN TIARAS (not kidding) sat in the front and got absolutely DESTROYED by him. The bride left in tears within 20 minutes and the rest of the crew had to follow. One of the best things I’ve ever witnessed.
“Breaks” never work like they’re supposed to. One person always ends up doing something to royally piss off the other, and it either leads to them immediately getting back together in an attempt to rectify the situation, or it’s just the beginning of the end. I know no one who has ever gotten “clarity” from a “break.”
Yeah I love how men are all “you don’t need all that crap, stop wasting money!” But then the moment a girl goes out without makeup they’ll comment about how tired/bad she looks. I’m not really an Amy Schumer fan but that bit she did about makeup was spot on.
THIS. It’s always super frustrating to have to explain to my husband every time he wants to have the “saving money” talk that if he wants me to remain looking as good as I did when we first met, there’s no way I can cut back on my grooming expenses. And this list doesn’t even touch the $200 per month Pure Barre membership…
Yeah. Imagine a regular barre class, but with bigger, faster moves and in between exercises you do various forms of cardio. I played competitive soccer for 10 years and don’t think I ever sweat as much as I did during my first platform class.
But a regular Pure Barre class is a cakewalk compared to the dreaded Pure Barre Platform class. I have to sit in my car and pray and mentally psyche myself up before I go inside for each one. Absolutely brutal.
I too had McDonald’s cheeseburgers as my midnight snack, and it’s one of the things that people compliment me the most on from my wedding. Solid choice.
Several things factor into the coat/no coat decision for me…
-Is it greater than 30 degrees out?
-Is there any precipitation in the forecast?
-Will we likely be staying at one bar, or bar hopping?
-Are there plenty of tables/chairs that I could lay my coat on?
-Did my husband wear a coat? Because if he did, I can always just steal his…

I’d honestly not heard of this festival until this morning but now I cannot look away from the Twitter timeline. This is FASCINATING.

I’ve yet to be invited to a brunch wedding, but if/when that happens I will be ecstatic.
Caroline and Girl are most definitely frenemies.

I am a firm believer that NO ONE is completely faithful if they’re in college.
