Update: I Regret Being a Part of my Friend's Wedding
Post Body

Here's the link to the original post, but I'll give a quick summary of what happened if you don't wanna read it:

TL;DR I agreed to be a part of my friend's polyamorous "wedding". Some stuff started to come up that I wasn't okay with (dates kept changing, people were being flippant and inconsistent, worried about my friend, etc.) and now I want out.

Alright so now that we're all caught up, on with the update!

I had my concerns and frustrations about this whole thing, but for the most part they have been eased. Recently, K (F 21) had come into town to visit her sister and we met up a few days ago to go bowling with family. We caught each other up on everything, and I had asked her what was going on with the wedding. So a few things have changed:

  1. Instead of two ceremonies, it'll just be one and it won't be until Spring of next year. It'll give them more time to save up for the wedding, and focus on getting the kids adjusted to everything.
  2. The venue has also changed, since it was (basically) an open field with no power and they'd need to get a whole bunch of generators and shiz.
  3. K had mentioned that a couple of the bridesmaids might be dropped from the wedding due to them being flaky. (missing dates and plans when they knew about them in advance and said they'd be there, with no explanation of why they didn't show).

Then I asked how her, P and D were all doing. She said they're doing really great, and she's being treated very well. We talked about the plans they have for the summer, and how they'll be back in town towards the end of June. The more we talked about it, the more it gave me relief that she was happy where she's at AND she seemed to have her head on her shoulders (which is what I was most concerned about tbh).

After meeting up with her, it really put my mind at ease about the whole situation. It's also made me realize that as long as she's happy and being treated right, that's all that matters. I may not always agree with how they may do things sometimes, but as long as everyone's happy and healthy it's fine. Now, I can honestly say I'm happy with being in this wedding and supporting my friend on this big step in her life.
