Sologamy

Post by Glacier »

The wedding cost almost C$15,000 and she got a cake with a bride figurine on the top. She also had a poster printed with her kissing her Photoshopped self with “sposa single” (single bride) printed on it.

She was surrounded by her closest friends and family.

Mesi is part of a growing trend of people, who have decided to marry themselves, in a proclamation of self-love. The trend has been named “sologamy,” which claims the social affirmation normally reserved for couples.

If she ever does marry won't she have to divorce herself first? :135:

Seriously though, seems kind of sad to me (and only cost $15,000).

She's probably single because she only cares about herself and craves attention- hence, the marriage to herself.

Meh. Any reason to get family and friends together sounds good to me. It's her money.

I wonder where her honeymoon is booked. And what present she had Amazon deliver to her.
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

Lots of people want an awesome wedding, not as many see marriage as a permanent thing. Marriage has become regarded by many as something you only hang onto when it suits you. When it doesn't suit you anymore, you move on the same way you do from an apartment, a car, or a job.

With that in mind "sologamy" is a pretty good alternative.

I wonder if she "waited until she was married"? The buildup to the wedding night must have been wonderful. :135:
