Well gentle readers the gig is up. It seems that in all of my rambling I gave away enough information for a friend of a friend of Bridezilla to feel the need to get her phone number and call her. Explaining how he had read the blog and how I had posted things about her dad and Christmas and other sorts of interesting tidbits. Well I must admit that I would have thought any sane person, especially one who read enough to deduce that this could be a friend of a friend, would have also considered that calling a guys fiancé in Chicago to say he had read all about the weeding is not a nice thing to do. They may have also read that my comments weren’t mean, but probably not for her eyes or ears. But for what ever reason, the call was place, an email to me was produced, and I had to explain my posts, the information I had provided and generally apologize my ••• off. Honestly Bridezilla just asked that I not post personal stuff and to keep in mind that other people read the blog, not just the ones who post, so watch what I say. But I just have no desire to post any more, it was a mean thing to do to me, and I hope she isn’t embarrassed, mad, or displeased with me. Dave / Jamie could one of you guys delete the Thread up to this post? Thank you. | ||

Oh Brett, that's so awful. What a crappy thing to do. We all really know how great (and normal) Bridezilla is, and we've enjoyed your "through the grooms eyes" play by play. Give it a couple days for the bad taste to wear off, and you might feel like posting again. We all know you're a good guy and didn't mean any harm. If you like, I'd be happy to atest to the same in an e-mail to Bridezilla herself? | ||

Brett - It sounds like Bridezilla handled it with grace. If all she requested that no personal info be revealed, seems easy enough. The good thing is you are marrying HER and not the A$$hat (who clearly has some agenda) hope you'll still post here as we are all way too involved to let you off that easy  | ||

Brett you both are a great couple. She will cool off I hope. She was so proud when she showed me her ring and the looks between the two of you was priceless. I hope she will understand this is just venting with humor.  to a couple very much in love... | ||

Brett--remember what goes around comes around...not that I wish anything on anyone...but whoever did that to you and Bridezilla really is not a very nice person. (Or they are really nice and had a moment of meanstreak in them)... I hope that things cool off...and at some point maybe Bridezilla will realize that it is good for you to have a place to vent so that you can get things off your chest and not keep things inside that could harm your relationship. My best wishes that things work out for this situation...and pox on whoever did that!!! (I could not help myself)!!! | ||

That person is no friend. I'll bet he also tells his Other Half (if he has enough social skills to have one) that he thinks she looks fat in her favorite outfit. I hope everyone cools down; you are our favorite couple and we love "geting married" with you. She should be glad she's not my grandmother; the things in my blog would definitely kill her. And remind her that there are worse things; bodily functions have been exposed elsewhere and you have never, ever been ungentlemanly. The overwhelming theme on this blog has always been just how crazy-nutso-head-over-heels you are about her. Most girls would kill to have a guy who cared about her and the wedding enough to shout it from the rooftops! In fact, it seems that in the past, an awful lot of single women/mothers of single women have asked if you have a brother. BZ should be proud! | ||

yea - what greenetree said! You have been WAY over-the-top in your devotion to BZ and we have enjoyed every heartfelt post... even the ones in which you complain.. because most of the time, when we side with you, you then explain how we don't understand HER and she's right. We love you both and only wish for your happiness. To that end.... X Mr. Bigmouth off the guest list! | ||

Bridezilla didn’t ask me to stop posting, just to post a little less information, so that a Friend of a college friend couldn’t call her up. But it has just lost its fun, and possibly embarrassed her, that’s what really sucks. Its one thing when it’s a faceless mob. She was completely prepared when we went to bunnies knowing that she had some fans, but getting a call one night is different. It was fun yelling from the roof tops, but when someone comes along and tries to push you off it changes stuff. I’m just not a big fan of people today. | ||

Brett, I know of a Maplewood couple that had to live apart for two years...they kept in touch many, many times a day via email. They had all the good and the bad conversations people in love have - it is just that theirs was a digital converstaion most of the time. As a gift to her husband upon his return home, the wife printed out all the emails they had exchanged and had them bound into a journal. Keep a record of your thoughts and words - I think she would love to share them with you at some point in the not-so-distant future! (Just imagine your kids reading them and knowing how much you love their mom...) | ||

Yeah - I don't blame you. Why people get so full of themselves and self-important is beyond me. The urge to gossip and make it all about him/her self is the only reason I can think of for that person to have made the call. I sometimes live in fear of someone who knows my family reading my blog and reciting a few of the more choice lines. But, I also have faith that anyone who may stumble across it has enough grace and compassion not to want to hurt anyone. Given the group that has gathered and the PLs I've gotten, I'd like to think that it has done more good than harm. I just don't get the idiot who made the call about your blog. What on earth did this person possibly gain from this? Hello? Big mouth - you still reading? Feel better now? You got to be the one to tell The Big Secret! Aren't you important? OTOH, I do not want to be so judgemental; perhaps you do not realize that Brett said nothing that was harmful or disrespectful and that you appear to be one of those "screw-everyone-else-it's-all-about-me-types". Maybe you just have no social skills or inate ability to reason. Therefore, I would like to donate the first $1 to send you a clue. Perhaps others will join in and we can send you to an Evelyn Wood Speed Thinking seminar or something. Oh. One more thing. When you call BZ's friend about the latest posts, be sure to tell her that we think she's great and we think Brett is wonderful and all hope that our daughters/sisters/friends end up with a man who cherishes, respects and adores her as much as he does her. I'm really hoping that in tripping over yourself to spread the news, you didn't leave that out. | ||

Brett, I am so sorry! At least she is understanding! You had many wonderful and beautiful things to say about her, and that is what really matters. |
