Pick your battle, man. Its a small ask where you might at least enjoy the scenery. This ain't a sprint it's a marathon. How old are you?



make it known initially how much you really don't want to go.

...eventually give in but say only because it means so much to you and afterwards thank her for convincing you because of "how much fun you had".

....she'll think it's a big W for her and will give you either gluckgluck 9000 or buttbutt9000....which turns it into a W for you.

Well, I will give her a pass on that.

Wasn't fat at all before pregnancy.

Trust me, other than a decent reception, no one really wants to be at a wedding. But this is one of those where it comes with the territory.

In other words, miss, but give her a bad arse and unexpected present such as a massage or spa shite.

See? Know how I can tell you are an adult that has played this game before?

This is the correct answer, son. Listen to this man. Relationships are a gory battlefield...this is how you side step the landmines. Especially if she is 5'2 and 110 lbs.

Gender reveals are dumb and unnecessary.

True. It does suck that gender reveals exist though.

Show up, drink beer and eat food for an hour or two, and go home. Gender reveals are just an excuse to have a party with friends and family. Embrace it and have fun.

No.

I said that I attended the wedding, and that's enough for me.

I don't need to be involved in every life event of some girl that I didn't even know before I met my girlfriend.
