well girls, see what you think? best man has known for a year that this month we would be sorting the suits out.we organise today to meet up at the shop at noon..he arrives,we sort the suits out and when we go to pay guess what, he has no money to pay for his.We have to pay!! I have already bought shirt, waist coat and cravat for him.Tonight HSB's brother has informed us that best man is planning to buy Rhianna tickets!!!! X
- CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
That is just cheeky to use the polite word! I hope he is giving you the money back though, if he is the best man he should have enough respect for his mate to do the right thing. Seems though that he had no intention as Rhianna tickets are more important, your h2b must be peeved off? I really hope it gets sorted or he might not be best man for much longer! :) x

Finally reunited with the love of my life

This Saturday I will finally be Mrs Codling!

Oh dear! get h2b to ask him what's going on? explain that the wedding is already causing a strain on your pockets so having to buy his suit unexpectantly has really worsened the blow of how expensive this one day is becoming and that you want him to be best man but you dont want to be out of pocket xxx
- CommentAuthordizzydora4
He is H2b younger brother, he said last year he would pay me back for the waitscoat etc and im still waiting. He told H2b that he had enough money for his suit hire yesterday so i really dont think im getting any of it back now and i DONT want him as best man now, but H2b doesnt want to upset him as its family. I know i should just face the fact i will never get the money back, but i am so annoyed. x
- CommentAuthorHunny Bunny
That's awful situation, I assume he has been chosen as BM for a reason so that must put you in an akward situation. Might he return you the money after the wedding?

You have every right to be annoyed huni, and I think you should talk to h2b again, I know he doesn't want to upset his family but he is marrying you and I can imagine how angry you must be feeling right now, and taken for a mug because he had the money but didn't pay you back, I would be fuming! x

I think your H2B needs to grow a backbone and tell his little brother he is a selfish tool and he owes you money!!! X
- CommentAuthordizzydora4
h2b doesnt have any firends that he felt he wanted to ask, so he thought it would be nice to ask his younger brother..in answer to you Hunny bunny, i very much doubt it will be returned ever, he unfortunately has never worked (hes 28yrs old) just plays at being a magician and claims the dole x x
- CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
After your last comment I am sorry to say that hell will freeze over before you get that money back, and it is a shame that he is such a selfish excuse for a man. I hope it won't ruin your day too much, I would find it hard to contain my rage whenever he spoke and seeing as he has to give a speech, I would not be a happy bunny! :) x

Dont worry gregorys girl, i am not going to take this easily. I will let all my friends and family know what a leech he is before the wedding. They hate scroungers!! I will make sure H2B alters his speech to not include "thanks" to best man bit and i will avoid him at wedding. He will NOT be in any pics as i will just be annoyed when i look at him!!x
- CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
Oh good, hopefully he will feel dead uncomfortable and maybe even at a stretch...sorry, lol. May I just say that I would hate to get on the wrong side of you! lol

I mean this in all respect.................

So what you're saying is this clown has enough money for Rhianna tickets but quite conveniently doesn't have the money to pay for his suit for his own brother's wedding? Sweetheart, do yourself a favour, get everything you've bought back off him and take it back to the shops for a refund/exchange for something for your hubby. The lad's priorities are screwed and at 28 he should get off his lazy ar5e and get a job so he CAN afford to stand at his brother's side on his wedding day.
The guy's a jacka55, don't stand for it!

It's right what they say

But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D
- CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
Unfortunately I think this one is down to the h2b to sort as it is his best man and his brother. I would get him to go and kick him up the backside and let him know just how much this has upset you both. It will have more impact coming from him.

- CommentAuthordizzydora4
I dont think he respects anyone. I have had a row with H2b tonight abouth this, he feels that its his choice who he asks to be best man, which yes i agree with, but isn't it supposed to be an honour to be asked in the first place? Is a best man supposed to help not hinder? Girls, do you think my previous email about revenge is tooo wicked?? x
- CommentAuthorKerrylou
Sorry, misread it as it was you h2bs brother who was best man.
Ok, so it's your h2bs choice to have him as best man. Now because I'm an uber b!tch when it comes to things like this (and I did something similar to Ross the other week) if this money has come out of your pocket then present h2b with the receipts and tell him if he's so desperate to have this numpty as best man then he can pay you back each and every last penny it's cost you.
If it's you h2bs money that's paid for it then let him be a fool unto himself, one day he'll see him for the scrounging git he is (she says hopefully)

It isn't worth you 2 falling out over but the guy is being blatantly disrespectful of both of you. I've got an idea, show this thread to your h2b :P

Thanks Kerrylou, I have told H2B that if my money(whats his is mine etc lol) is not repaid in full and in cash by Easter(she says with teeth grinding)then I WILL CANCEL his suit at the shop. I think giving 3mths to repay is more than fair and i am nobodys mug.We all of us on here, work damn hard at our jobs and have a recession to cope with as well.. and exhale!!
