Took long enough

[Moon Doggie 220]

My father finally popped the question, Rachel said yes, blah blah blah blah blah. So for those of you who are and or was married you know what's going on at my house as the due date draws neared.

Apparently as the son i HAVE to be there and i HAVE to look nice and tidy. That includes the loss of my ponytail *cries* and I've already been nearly drowned by Rachel who didn't want dye in my bangs, luckily i managed to talk them into letting me keep my earrings.

So i guess I'm kinda sorta being a good sport about it, i don't know, so yeah Rachel will be my step mother. Gabby will be my step sister, i guess I'll live.

oi that stinks i can understand looking nice and tidy and no dye in your hair and what not. its a wedding. big formal thing. all the fun stuff (im going to one so i gotta get all nice and cleaned up/no dye/nothing too shocking)

im sure youll live. youll still have fights, but if you have a positive outlook on the whole situation, it wont be that bad. im sure gabby (from what ive heard) will become more bearable with age, and im sure rachel will do the same. maybe she'll grow on ya

chin up, and hey, congrats to your dad getting married =3

congrats for your dad! you should post a pic of yourself all spiffy'ed up.

thanks, hoping for Rachel to be less paranoid about me "creeping" around the house with all her planning, but apparently not. Hate stuff like this, i don't even like going to concerts cause i have to get dressed up, but i'm doing this for my dad, it his and rachel's day not mine so i should just suck it up right and get with the program

I'm still trying to comprimize with my dad on this hair cut, he wants me to get a buzz cut. I want to at least have some enough hair on my head when winter rolls around.

I don't understand about the ponytail needing to be cut off. Yes, the standard image forced upon America today is a nicely trimmed haircut, usually no more than two or three inches in length. However, I've seen a trend of a few people here and there wearing a ponytail. In most cases, they keep the equivalent of a scrunchy, but not nearly as thick, at the base and one at the tip to keep it controlled and nice.

If worn right, and is long enough, but not too long , I don't see how it is an issue. If it's a short ponytail, cut it off and start again after the wedding.

Let's put it to a vote, thought your family probably won't listen to us, we maybe able to assuage your feelings in this. Post a picture, front and back, and we'll let you know what we think.

ME ME Can i cut your hair? You know if your dad doesn't make you your mom will just chop it off while you sleep like last year. Besides me you and the rest of the people who seen you with a short cut knows your hair curls when it's short cause you have weird hair, has to be a buzz cut. You can also donate all that pretty blond hair of yours

Maybe Slege will trade you some bonus posts or additional rep points for it.

[Moon Doggie 220]

lol, funny

No E.C. you are not coming any where near me with scissors there's a reason you got that nickname (E.C.-emo cookie) and you know how quick your mood can change, I'm not going down like that. But point taken I'm getting a buzz cut, don't want my mom to do that again.

The bad thing about it is that Rachel wants me to do all these different things, want me to be a part of the wedding so i don't know if I'll be doing too much cause there's only so much i can do at one time with out getting too distracted

[Vincent 2,861]

she should be able to reach a compromise on some things hopefully. i mean she's not just marrying your dad but in a way, you too. she gets him AND you and she's going to have to realize that. so yes, some leeway on both sides is a good thing and it sounds like you're already doing a lot.

[Pchan 5,162]

Hide your pony in your shirt *nod*, it'll look like you pulled your hair back, nice and neat.

[Moon Doggie 220]

*giggles* nice, but that might freak me out, i get paranoid sometimes lol.

Rachel is being nicer to me, me and Gabby both think she on something which is saying a lot if Gabby agrees with me. So I'm enjoying it while it lasts and trying not to run into stuff and break things to keep the peace.

[Wolflord 1,488]

Apparently as the son

I always thought you were a girl

hmm, I don't really get the hair thing, my brother went to my uncle's wedding with a mohawk, but I guess it's different for our trailer trash weddings.

Good luck! (Y)

[Moon Doggie 220]

It's okay, I get that a lot.

Rachel just wants a normal, yet fabulous wedding

Is it a good or bad idea for Rachel to invite my mom, i think there might be some issue i don't know how my mother would react to this

[Kelene 268]

To invite your mother it would depend on if your parents separated for a pleasant reason and that neither one is holding a grudge. Does Rachel know your mother well? Have they meet before?

Definetely talk to your father if he is okay with the idea of his ex coming to his wedding.

[Moon Doggie 220]

mm hm, well I'm sure everything will be fine then if my mom isn't so out spoken and starts something

[xxangelxdust 100]

congrats to your dad!

I'm sure youll be fine =)
