HaHaHa...I almost did...
Hey man. wildlife242 told me about this last night at work and I talked to her about it. She still has her same opinions, but she's calmed down some and to tell you the truth, you've probably got 1/2 the guys at Cablea's on your side.
I told her that it's not even your close friend that's getting married, that it's your girlfriend's close friend and that if I were in your place i'd ditch the wedding.
I agree with you completely. your girlfirend knows that this is something you do every year. Yeah, it's cool that she asked, but she should've asked knowing that the answer was most likely going to be 'no' and she should've been prepared for that. Honestly, it sounds like your girlfriend threw the fit, not you.
