I have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest. I LOVE the stuff I find on there, and contrary to popular belief, it’s not all recipes and crafts. Flat extension cords? Who knew these existed?! A gadget that finds your lost keys/lost phone? Sign. Me. Up. But I will tell you what I absolutely HATE on Pinterest: seeing all my friend’s stupid ass wedding boards. Bitch, you aren’t even engaged! And I don’t know why you would pin that strapless plunging neckline dress when you’re a size 16 anyway. I guess by the time you actually get engaged you’ll be able to wear it? Am I the only person getting fatter as I’m in a relationship?
I had a friend in college who would always buy bridal magazines and earmark and tab things she liked. Can someone please explain to me WHY you would do this if you are nowhere in the ballpark of a wedding? By the time these girls actually get engaged, these styles will be LONG gone. Trust me...because they are also the girls who pin things like the Marilyn Monroe quote that says something like, “A wise girls kisses, but doesn’t love...” or some other equally depressing bullshit.
I’m not trying to be a dream crusher...ok, maybe I’m crushing a few dreams...but I can’t be the only person in the world who thinks this is annoying. I can forgive you for putting your ab workout post next to your triple fudge cake recipe...but I don’t want to see the templates for your non-existent wedding. Stop the madness! I’m not saying I don’t look at the occasional wedding dress...I just don’t pin it for the world to see! Keep that shit on lock, ladies. Obsess/dream/hope in private...
