Asian Wedding

Hey - I have a dilemma and need some GOOD advice

Basically there is a family wedding coming up on Sunday, my cousins. Were having the works - henna, hair, makeup, designer outfits - great care etc etc my mums spending a bomb. But i really dont wanna go

Firstly, everyone going - I don't like..our family is really bitchy and all the girls are just going to backchat about one another. Don;t get me wrong, im perfectly capable of sitting through that but why should i have to? its not my thing and i have exams - theres far better ways of spending my time

but its only one day right? one day of hell, in a stuffy hall with bitchy girls who just judge and a horrible atmosphere - hmmm, over dramatic?

But then i relally wanna wear these new outfits and get my hair and makeup done - thats the upside....

If i dont go my family will be annoyed - what to do?!

go, spend time with your family and enjoy yourself, you'll enjoy it more than you expect to!

I always build it up to be really unbearable in my head, then when I actually go it's not so bad :smile:

Finally glad to find someone who thinks like me.. I've got my cousins one to attend to in the summer, but I got out of it by booking a ticket abroad :yay:

But don't get me wrong, dresssing up and doing the mendi, henna stuff for girls looks pretty fun.. And just for 1 day, you might as well.. And I get what you mean, coz I've got similar family who just bitches/back chats, and we don't get on .. Only times we see one another is either wedding or funeral functions. I'm pretty distant to them, but could be a chance to get a bit close to your family? I know its a tad bit late for myself.. Also, on the plus side, there is always good indian dishes to look forward too :teeth:

Btw one you attending to, is it the traditional asian wedding with the reception before/after or a modernised version which cuts the crap out with the long vidhis.. ??

You should go if it's important to your family that you be there. Take your revision with you and if you get bored go and sit in the car and revise. :tongue:

Dancing prostitues in pakistani weddings seems to be a more common thing, looking at youtube. :eek:

Such a shame for the 'Islamic Republic of Pakistan'.

No offense intended.

Aww op, i feel sorry for you, its hard to get out of weddings, especially if its close family. I hate weddings, and didnt attend my cousins, till this day shes still annoyed at me for not comming and making an effort. I didnt really have much of an excuse, except for the fact that i hate weddings with a passion. It doesnt seem like a celebration anymore, just another event where the women can gossip, while the girls huddle around a table and bitch about others. (thats whats happened at the few weddings i did attend)

You should go though, the foods yummy, you've got your outfit, and you can get all dressed up, plus you'll avoid the awkward 'why didnt you attend our wedding' talk with the newly married couple. :/

If you start trusting youtube to give you accurate views of everything,then you know you're getting desperate :p:

I know that but it seems the amount of videos seem to be increasing, they also including dancing transvestites. They have money thrown at them and their pimp picks them up.

It just made me a little uneasy. That is all. I'm just hoping that this crap stops in Pakistan and world-wide.

Sorry to the OP> I know it's not relevant, but ensure when you get married, that your husband doesn't hire prostitues to dance for his 'stag night'.

Tell me about it!? Especially the after-party celebrations when everyones jammin on the dance floor and you get some freshies givin you the eyes lol..

Guess with indian parents, you can't reason with them. They'll always find a way to get things done, so don't get me wrong, but I don't think you'll be getting a 1 way ticket out of the wedding lol.. Your parents would either give you a chance to go, or you'll be forced to go..
