    call her k. The first thing she say to me was that she "called dibs" on the name Kolt. I told her then and in many other conversations that I really like the name Colter, and she would always say things like "oh that's cute" or "yeah I like that too".

    I wanted to start off by saying I love the show, it has kept me company on many long 12+ hour days cutting hay please never stop! Now for my story, I (21 female) found out I was expecting my first

    definitely wasn't expecting it to blow up like it did. K tried to claim that Colter is her little brothers middle name (which it isn't) and when I mentioned she may never even have a son, what if she only has girls.

    She accused me of commenting on her "infertility". Which of course is undiagnosed not to mention she has only been off birth control for about a year and in that time she has been

    we didn't talk for about a month until we had a family event and saw each other in person, things seemed to be back to normal at least I thought. I messaged her afterwards

    no longer wanted me to be her maid of honor because I "made nasty comments" about her ovaries. When I myself, my older sister and my aunt have all had serious complications with our ovaries and had surgery/surgeries on ours.

    envisioned her being my maid of honor but I just don't see that being possible after the way she's treated me in my pregnancy. What should I do?

    . grayblue_grrl • 22h ago She's being ridiculous. That's all there is to it. She's taken a situation and made it all about her, told lies about you and thrown you out of her wedding.

    Over a name for a child she isn't even pregnant with, yet. If ever. Cousins often have the same name. It's crazy to be so upset. Let it and her go. Name your child what you want to.

Because do you actually want someone so toxic to be in your life? And even if you don't think she's being toxic per se. But the drama that is being caused by something so insignificant.

    sevydbeanqueen • 9h ago Our cousin named her two sons after my two older brothers, exact same two first names, spelling and all, and nobody cared Does she expect no one else in the world to have that name just because she called dibs on it?
