Shower Vent...Sorry
Ok, so here's my dilemma. I am helping my mom and MIL and sisters plan my shower. We were going through the calendar, and since I have a HUGE family, there is something going on almost every single weekend in May and June, except Sat, June 5th. Ok, so my sister finds out and calls me yesterday and FLIPS out, because the NEXT day, Sunday, is her bf's birthday! WTH?? She said I am "ruining" her dinner plans. I told her the shower is from 12-4 and she will be out by 4:30 the latest, how am I ruining her "dinner plans"??? I told her she isn't seriously going to dinner with friends before 7 right? The point I'm making is, is she being unreasonable? His bday is the NEXT day, and the shower gets out early! I feel horrible, and she made me feel even worse. I was literally crying and sick to my stomach all night. Opinions please. This really is the only weekend, or else the last Saturday of June, which is the weekend school gets out and I told my mom I didn't want it that late!

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
Can your mom talk to her? It's probably better if u stay out of it and let them work it out.....less stress for you!!!
Sorry u r dealing w/ this!
FWIW, I think your sis is being unreasonable!

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
No offense... but your sister is a lunatic. That is the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a long time. It's not like it's her birthday, first of all, they are going out to dinner at NIGHT, and her bf's birthday is the NEXT day.
Holy cow I would have torn her a new one if I was you. How selfish! Have your shower on that day and tell her if she's too busy not to come, it's not about HER anyway!

Couldn't have said it any better.
Sorry you had to deal with that.

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
hmm...i think that you are correct. the shower is in the afternoon, and any dinner plans would DEFINITELY not begin until much later, like you said.
especially where his bday isn't even THAT day, i think she's being a tad unreasonable.
you can't please everyone, and if this date works best for you, i wouldn't waste another second stressing over it - set your shower date and ENJOY!!!!!

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
I would have your mom speak to her. She's being completely unreasonable.
We had a similar situation for my shower. The only date in February available was the 27th- my BFF of 20+ year's actual birthday. My mom called her and told her she was sorry, but that was the only day available at the restaurant we chose and she felt bad, but there wasn't mush she could do.
My friend said "i'm turning 29 and the shower is from 12-4. I doubt I'm doing anything major, but if I am, it will be at night, it's not a big deal at all, at least I get to be with my friends!"
That's maturity. Your sister should look it up.

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
Is your sister serious? I would tell her to grow up and to stop being a selfish *****
If I were you I would book it for the 5th, it wouldnt even affect her bfs bday so I don't get why she is even making you feel bad

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
Unless she had booked a weekend away, I think she is being ridiculous. She really needs to get over herself. Like you said, she'll be done by 4:30 which leaves her more then enough time to get ready for the night.

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
I'm sorry you are dealing with this 
I agree with all the other posters and would just book it that day anyway. You can't please everyone....nor should you have to! This is YOUR day!
I think you should have your mom talk to her, there is no reason for you to be dealing with this aggravation. She is being quite selfish.
Good luck!

ITA a 1000 times over.
Have your mother deal with her from here on out and if your mother won't, vent your anger directly at your sister. Don't get upset about it, just get mad and tell her how ridiculously selfish she's being.

If I were in that situation I wouldn't feel horrible at all. If anything SHE should be the one to feel horrible. If her boyfriends birthday (which is the NEXT day) is more important then your shower, I would tell her not to come then.

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
Your sis is being very unreasonable. How dare she! Birthdays come every year, this is a once in a lifetime event and experience. Id be very annoyed.
Dont let it get to you. Things will work out, and you will have a wonderful shower regardless, Im sure.

I would definitely have it that day. Your sister is being selfish & ridiculous. She can change her dinner plans if it's that big of deal, not your shower date.

Re: Shower Vent...Sorry
Thanks ladies...I passed all this on to my mom! LOL My mom is going to call her tonight and she if she "came to her senses" or not. It's absolutely insane. My mom and I and DH are more upset at the fact that she freaked and went off on a huge tangent, and made me really upset! I have 4 sisters, I swear I hope I have boys, girls are so much drama!!! LOL

I totally agree with the above poster. Perhaps your mother can intervene and talk some sense into your sister.
Sorry to hear she is making it more stressful than it needs to be .

Exactly!!! Your sister needs to grow up and apologize for freaking on you like that. She was WAY out of line.
