Yeah we're working on it right now, apparently someone in the party does still live in Savannah so we're going to talk to him and the fiancee. Possibly his parents just to be like triple sure this really isn't anything more serious than super anxiety or being really sick. If there's any saving it we're going to get him on a plane.

Like, a couple of us going literally had dinner with this girl last night and there was no indication anything was wrong. She was giving us suggestions on places to go and also has a bachelorette party planned in Vegas in a month. So weird.

No, wedding is in June. He has been acting really weird since Mardi Gras. His fiancee was out of town and he literally went to like 2 parades and barely did **** the entire time. Another friend actually made a joke that he was going to back out of his bachelor party after such a pathetic showing that he knew about and laughed off. Can't believe it's coming true.

So you're saying she's one of those women that, on the surface, and in the company of others, is perfectly normal and cool, but behind closed doors is a total bitch to her husband?

Our general impression of her is that she basically does whatever he wants pretty much all the time. Moved to NOLA for him after college, moved to Savannah because of him recently, etc. Just kind of goes with whatever people are doing, likable enough. Maybe she's a dom behind closed doors or something.

This is a time where you've gotta sack up as a friend and do whatever you can to get that guy on that plane. For his own good.

And if you try everything you can and he won't go, then screw it, go to Vegas and have a blast.

Yep and yep

i mean, there have been some hilariously stupid media-driven storylines, but "does britney griner have NBA potential" might be the absolute worst of them all

That stupid girl tried out at kicker for the Jets. One of the YouTube comments was "her last name tells me all I need to know about how she got this opportunity". lol

can't wait to see how this bachelor party thing turns out. keep giving updates.

i don't think any of my friends could ever in a million years back out like that. in reality, i'd probably be the one most likely to do that, and that would only be if i was pretty sure i wasn't going to get married anymore, for whatever reason.

IMO that's probably what's going on right now. Maybe he's recently found out a few things about her that seem sketchy and he's trying to piece together everything.

Yeah maybe he has cold feet and is afraid it'll come out publicly at the bachelor party.

Having a reason to back out of the wedding would probably be a huge incentive to actually go to the bachelor party/failed wedding party. Couldn't drown your sorrows any better than friends, strippers, alcohol, cocaine and STD's.

Agreed.

It's one of the most entertaining and readable series oat no doubt, but the ending was hot garbage and it left ~no lasting impression. Really glad I read it, but I have no desire to read it again.

to backup CDL a bit. i met him through the school i went to. he had a friend or two there and would visit and we met a cpl times on those visits

the guy who hit him 3x is one of my better friends. so i know the stories of these situations

CDL wasnt punched 3x by him necessarily for 'being CDL'. theres more to it and not ALL entirely his fault

prob wont say much more on it fwiw, jus think most assumed he only got punched for bein a dick

thanks for clarifying that your dick friend sucker-punching CDL three separate times wasn't ALL entirely his fault. I'm sure he appreciates the backup.
