I am a groomsman in a wedding this week. The bride is a real insecure bit#@. I wish I could find better words, but that’s just the way it is. All the groomsman feel this way, the grooms father even made the statement “what did I do for my son to marry the devil” The bride has a 48 hour agenda that tells everyone where to be on the 15 minute mark. She has told us that not only is the groom unable to go on Saturday night (the night before the wedding), but so are we (the wedding party). She has the wedding getting up at 5:45 a.m Sunday morning for pictures. To top it all off, her registry was filled with personal items (items that only she could use). The grooms wedding party is driving over 14 hours to get to the wedding, and we feel like we are being corralled around being treated like second class citizens-not to mention this whole thing is costing us all a huge amount of cash. So basically, the wedding party is about to “blow a gasket”. The flip side to this coin is that the groom is a lifetime friend a regardless of how I feel about his bride to be, I still want him to have good day. So how do I regain a positive attitude for the wedding party and keep spirits high? Any suggestions would be most helpful.

I know they say misery loves company and all this but I’m convinced that 85 percent of humans can’t stand to see another person happy or satisfied with their life.
Why do people set out to destroy someone else’s happiness?
It’s like if anything good happens to you or you’re satisfied and content * happy* they have to ruin it?
What is the purpose of this? Is it that hard to see someone else happy?

I’ve had this feeling all of my life, it comes and goes. I feel depressed and dark, but I also feel content with it, and like I can’t be happy unless I’m sad. I feed off of pain and feeling depressed or cynical. When I feel like this I also feel more happy that I would if it was pure happiness with no sad feeling at all. Is there a word for this?
