Distant_Rainbow 03/21/18 2:11:10 AM #35:	Dash_Harber posted... So you are saying that no one had a specific way to do a wedding until a few hundred years ago when someone came up with the best man? Is overinterpreting people your schtick or something? Dash_Harber posted... But she has made it clear she is not following tradition, so what is the fucking problem? Actually, by trying to have a best man, yes, she IS following tradition. But trying to half-ass it by having me in the role. Dash_Harber posted... Based on? You even said it was the man who was your closest friend. What if you are her closest friend? I am not her friend. I am her dad. On a personal level, sure, I am most likely her friend. But that's not what this tradition is looking for. Dash_Harber posted... you said you were refusing her request. To be her best man. Not coming to her wedding.

Dash_Harber 03/21/18 3:57:27 AM #37:	Distant_Rainbow posted... Is overinterpreting people your schtick or something? No. Is purposely ignoring the obvious yours? Best men only became a tradition because at some point someone decided to do something differently. That point was not really long enough ago to argue that it is somehow sacred. Traditions only become traditions by breaking other traditions. The argument that it is wrong because it's not 'traditional' is bullshit on every level. Distant_Rainbow posted... Actually, by trying to have a best man, yes, she IS following tradition. But trying to half-ass it by having me in the role. So you are saying traditions cannot be altered? Convenient, since you are okay with the whole homosexual marriage thing. Distant_Rainbow posted... I am not her friend. I am her dad. Why can't you be both? What if she has no male friends? Distant_Rainbow posted... On a personal level, sure, I am most likely her friend. But that's not what this tradition is looking for. So who is putting a gun to your head saying, "You have to follow this tradition in this exact way"? Distant_Rainbow posted... To be her best man. Not coming to her wedding. The latter's a given. I never said the latter. You are making that up now. You say the day is supposed to be about her and she doesn't have to follow tradition if she doesn't want to, but also claim she is going to regret it if she does not do what you view as 'tradition' despite my very clear explanation about why that is bullshit. <cite>Dash_Harber posted [p:898201228] in Scenario: ...
