dismalgrin I have since talked to him about it a few times. We have come to somewhat of an understanding. Meaning I understand where he is coming from, but he just still doesn't quite get where I'm coming from. I think the biggest win for me is if I get him to shut up...

Jane I am sure it would be very painful to the other party. I know someone who did call the wedding off because the bride to be realized she don't love the groom that much,so she cancelled the wedding 3 weeks before the wedding. Everything is also settled after a...

mindym I have never had to call off a wedding nor do I know someone who did. That would be a devastating...and embarassing...thing to do. But last week they were talking about this topic on the radio station that I listen to in the morning. They got on the topic...

Dominique25 That can be really hard. Especially when a lot of time and effort went into planning such an event. I feel it would be better to call off a wedding than to go through with something if you don't think it will work out. I'm sorry to hear how your first plans of...

Morning Girl I've never really known someone who called off a wedding. No not anyone among my friends has ever done that. All weddings where I got invited pushed through. It is a tough situation and a very hard decision to make. At any rate, it is better to call off a...

GreenMoo What a terrible thing to do to your intended! Did you ever speak to him again? I called off my wedding first time around as I felt I wasn't ready, but it was plenty of time beforehand and it was not all organised. I subsequently went ahead some time later.

katsmeow1213 Well calling it off and facing the embarassment is better than going through with it even though you have doubts, then living miserably the rest of your life.. or going through the headache of divorce. I've never personally known anyone to call off a...

Let me make something clear - at this time in my life I don't have anyone with whom I have a grievance against. Therefore for me right now, the morality of revenge is void. Instead I ask about revenge itself - and what your...

RJlady1 I don't believe in revenge. I think it's bad karma. People think that sometimes someone who did them wrong gets off free. But they never do. The world has a way of levelling things. I certainly wouldn't do anything that would end up with myself in jail or out...

I am very strongly against lying to children, ever, in any way. Children can feel very hurt and betrayed when adults lie to them, and if your children don't trust you it can even be dangerous (like when you say, you have to come...

Just an Ordinary Owl? When you go to a play or watch a movie, do you ever think that you are being lied to? That these people are only actors and the story isn't real? Of course not! When you read the old favourite stories like Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears, do you...

Just an Ordinary Owl? You have a year to think about this, remember, but, before that, I hope, you will be reading your daughter stories. What will she like best, do you think? "The Hungry Caterpillar" or "A Child's History of America" (if such a thing exists!). Just remember that...

Just an Ordinary Owl? Well, perhaps I am at an advantage because, you see ... I AM Santa (or, at least, have been for a few hundred children over a couple of Christmas seasons). I have awed, delighted (and scared) all of them in turn and have said to some of the older ones (when...
