Another Wedding, Another Bridesmaid

[Queen Arawello]

Last weekend, it was a distant cousin’s wedding, and once again I was one of the bridesmaids. I was very happy for her but I couldn’t help but wonder when my prince in shining armour was going to sweep me of my feet and make an honest woman out me! - that is a married one.

 

I have known of a woman who after the 8th time, finally was the braid. I am on 4th one now. 3 of which ended up in divorce. Is that a bad omen?

^No.

 

Maybe you are looking too hard. Take breather and recompose yourself. Apply their different strategy without being obsessive about it.

Only one marriage survived out of the four huh? That does sound like a bad omen.

I don’t think other people’s success/happiness ever takes away from you.

 

Hang in there, you’re turn will come

 

In the meantime, perhaps you should stop being a bridesmaid? Rushing behind the the bride the entire evening and making yourself look silly is never the way to go. You would have a better chance showing up as a guest, somehow it is more dignified

Are you implying that she gave those poor newly weds the evil eye?

[Valenteenah.]

Whatever gave you that idea?

[Ibtisam]

Arawello, miyaad cawiridey these couples? :eek:

 

If you want a braid, for weddings I know a nice hair lady for Muslim women in north london

 

lool @honest woman out me! never get that saying. miyaad been-lies baadtahey?

[Queen Arawello]

hi there sister ibtisam,

 

i noticed you have been absent these past few weeks. anyways, it was a spelling mistake so dont get carried away at my expense. I too know of that woman who fixs braid and weaves, thought i never understood why somali women would go there. her name is Hawa and she operates behind an internet shop.

[GaroweGal]

Meh,don't sweat it. I'm sure some fortunate Farah will lure you into eternal domestic incarceration and you'll secretly curse anyone remotely involved in casting this terrible affliction upon you.

 

Till then, kick your diana usage up a notch.

Queen A, please dont rush yourself about marriage and stop being so nice. being a bridemaid should be reserved for very very close family (siblings) and friends.

 

your time will come and the farax that would end up disappointing you is ever so close

 

insha allah kheyr

[Queen Arawello]

^ Thanks Juxa!

[Cabdow]

The wedding season must be approaching, hence the panic in the women section

 

Good luck yarta!
