You make it sound like just because a completely different thread she discussed money concerns, of course it has to be at the forefront of her mind at all times. Well, sorry, it obviously isn't for our lil buddy.

Well, she's only made three posts---two about how she and her fiance need to have a finances talk because she's nervous about how they're going to make it, and this one about the wedding party. Since I was in a similar situation and chose not to get engaged, perhaps I see the WTF? situation a little more acutely than others. I know I used things like wedding party and time of year to get my mind off of the fact that my ex was a dud.

She plans on being engaged for at least 3 years...chances are, her friendships will change in that time. If I had gotten married just out of graduate school (as I had intended), the people in my wedding party would be COMPLETELY different from those I would have stand up for me now.
