Three weddings in a week? Divorce lawyers work fast, don’t they?TPBM finds that the best part of a wedding is the string quartet that jokes around and plays Vivaldi before the guests show up.
No lol For me, I think the best part of a wedding is the bride or groom, showing up.
Divorce is not legal here. A couple who decides to end a marriage must go through a tedious court proceedings - exhaustion of resources.
TPBM would rather attend a birthday party than a wedding :D
