My maid of honor looked at this dress I'd spent eight months waiting for and said, "That's... not a wedding dress. It's a costume." The words hit like ice water. I'd fallen in love with the embroidery after seeing the seamstress's work on the Tedooo app - she specializes in traditional dresses, and I wanted something that honored my grandmother's heritage. Every flower was hand-stitched, every hummingbird placed with intention. It cost me three months of savings and countless late-night messages about thread colors and placement.
Now I'm two months from the wedding, and my entire bridal party is "gently suggesting" I find something more "classic." My mother-in-law offered to buy me a "proper" dress from David's Bridal. But when I put this on, I see my grandmother's garden, her stories about village celebrations, the culture she left behind when she immigrated. Yes, it's not a traditional white gown. Yes, people might whisper. But isn't a wedding dress supposed to make you feel like the truest version of yourself? I'm torn between keeping peace and keeping this dress that makes my heart sing every time I look at those embroidered birds.
@nezgoatlyx@nickimoraa I’m not saying is American, but for me everything is sweet there. The bread, the meat, the vegetables, they like it that way, I’m not saying is bad, I’m not used to all my food being sweet. That’s all.
My boyfriend's mom made mashed potatoes that tasted like CAKE and now his whole family is mad at me. We're at Sunday dinner, I take a bite, and immediately I'm like ??? why are these sweet? Not a little sweet, like genuinely dessert sweet. I kinda laugh and ask, 'wait are these sweet?' These were russet potatoes, btw, like someone dumped a whole bag of brown sugar in them. I'm 23 and not even from the US, so this was wild to me
She says 'yeah that’s how i make them,' and I just say I’ve never had sweet mashed potatoes before. It gets SO awkward, dead quiet. I try to eat them, I really do, but it’s gravy on dessert and my brain just can’t process it. So I stop eating them.
She notices and asks 'you don’t like them?' I say 'they’re just a bit sweet for me.' Then my boyfriend jumps in like 'they’re not even sweet' which LIKE they literally are?!
@Lahiss@forrestimel The login screen is obscure by a big void circle and last for seconds. I wish this were the Silvermoon City loading screen, right now is like a continent in the distant with no city.
