[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not my bag but I wouldn’t judge. Her friends owe it to her to make her feel special, as she did for them. [/quote]

I agree. But also to the OP's point--who's bag is this? Honestly. Do you personally know any 35+ women, children or no children, married or not, who are like YES. Let's go to the club!!!!!!! I don't. [/quote]

My 38-42 cousins and sister and I just had an amazing time in Vegas, including whooping it up in the club. One of us is a pastor, so that's not exactly our usual habitat. Do we ever do that kind of stuff IRL? No, and that was the point. It was once-in-a-blue-moon experience, which was part of the fun. We had no business being there; that was rather the point!

Geez, it's OK to do something out of the ordinary every once in a while. One of my cousins didn't want to try a sushi restaurant, but ended up trying it and loving every single dish we got at the table. [b]Good thing she tried something new and was game for an adventure.[/b] [/quote]

You’re missing the point. By the time you’re in your mid 30’s going on a clubbing bachelorette weekend is the opposite of an adventure. You’ve done it in college, you’ve gone on bachelorette weekends before and it’s ... boring. It’s repetitive

Can we do something new, or at least fun? Please? [/quote]

I don't like the clubbing thing, but happily went when my best friend was getting married, and that's what SHE, the BRIDE, wanted to do. It wasn't about what "we" wanted to do.

I find wine tastings boring AF, but happily went when my sister was getting married.

I[b]t's. Not. Always. About. You. It's not even always about the group. Sometimes, for one lousy time in a bride's life, when she's done her fair share of up-sucking and participating for other people, it's about the bride.[/b] Especially a bride in her 30s who has probably already run a full gamut of Not About Me Experiences as part of a bridal party or friend group.[/quote]

Bravo.  I think there are some miserable people who like to hate on everything, especially hate one brides.  OP, if it triggers you so much, do the bride a favor and stay home. [/quote]
