    It can be demurely red, yes? With some 1" come hither heels! :smiley: I'm with you. I look like a busted baby giraffe in heels. (And I'm short, so it would have to be a mini giraffe.)

    Dress is kinda aquamarine and black, it's nice :smile: I had to get confirmation from many people that it's ok to wear a full-length dress but I think I'm happy with this one. I actually got it for another brother's wedding that I never went to :tongue: Gotta get some use out of it!

    So someone messaged me on facebook as I've been off it for a while. Was nice that someone thought of me but now I regret being honest in my reply as there's been a deafening silence since! Is it any wonder that when someone asks 'how are you', we all just reply 'oh fine grand'? People don't really want to know the honest answer and to have to deal with it. Lesson learned....

    Sometimes some are more comfortable with niceties vs genuineness.

    Never regret being honest, Jenny. The lack of response is on them, not you. Plus there may be more to their silence than their silence.

    Thanks Hedo. It kinda cheered me up to get the message and then she managed to bring me down again by ignoring my reply. My experience of taking a break from Facebook has really just shown me how false online friends usually are. You tell yourself it's great you have all these people to talk to but really they're only there when it suits them and when you're good craic, not when you actually need them

    I really could do with a date for my brother's wedding...of course the fact that I have never had a date in my life does present something of a challenge...

    have you ever thought of rsvp or something and make sure you take a couple with you or something
    what do you mean by rsvp? Wedding invites usually only a plus 1. I only have one male friend and he doesn't want to come.

    The problem with this wedding is that I won't know anyone there other than my dad, his wife and my younger half-brothers and half-sister, who really I barely know at all. I'm also likely to be an object of a degree of interest, as my dad's illegitimate eldest daughter with another woman haha
    Ask your one male friend to suck it up and go with you even if he doesn't want to, because you need him to do you this favour?
    With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

    this happens to me a lot. I stopped lying. I would usually just say the expected "pretty good, how are you?", but when my anxiety/depression hit a peak last summer, it was actually exhausting to keep the lie going. it chipped away at me. I knew who was really asking the question based on if they had follow up questions the next day, the next week, the next month. The others, I don't blame them, just like the conversation starter. some people, as hedo said, aren't comfortable with seeing into your closet. they just want to comment on the furniture.
