Just for women: Not guitar but wedding related!

[Pepe Vergara]

I got this message from a friend whose daughter is getting married. I have not stopped laughing since I read it. Women are terrific and terrible. Let me know if you agree:

GREAT STORY:

Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen her excitement -- not even her parent's nasty divorce. Her mother had found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed mother- of-the-bride ever!

A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress! Jennifer asked her to exchange it, but she refused. "Absolutely not, I look like a million bucks in this dress, and I'm wearing it," she replied.

Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, "Never mind sweetheart. I'll get another dress. After all, it's your special day."

===============================================

A few days later, they went shopping and did find another gorgeous dress. When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her mother, "Aren't going to return the other dress? You really don't have another occasion where you could wear it. Her mother just smiled and replied, "Of course I do, dear. I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding."


NOW I ASK YOU - IS THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE, ANYWHERE, WHO WOULDN'T ENJOY THIS STORY?

Dear Pepe:

Too much, like you, I'm still laughing.

Hooray for Mom!

I need to bump this. It is too good to let pass. At least until Sandra reads it!

Well I didn't really enjoy it, but I'm not a woman, so I guess I don't get it.

I thought that was great! Talk about the perfect revenge. :p

cgram, you're not married, are you? If you are, read that joke to your wife and I'm sure she'd burst out laughing.

See, when it comes to formal occasions, men pretty much all dress alike anyway. With some exceptions, tuxedos basically all look the same. If two guys are at a formal event and one happened to notice another man was wearing the exact same suit (and it's fairly unlikely they'd even notice anyway), the conversation might go something like this:

"Hey, Bob, is that an Armani you're wearing?"

"Sure is, Joe."

"Looks good on you, Bob."

"Looks damn fine on you, too, Joe. Can't wait to get home and take it off, though."

"I hear that, bro!"

Now, on the other hand, some women wouldn't be caught dead wearing the same formal dress twice (even months apart), and their worst nightmare is showing up at an event and seeing another woman wearing the same dress.

So the bride's mother graciously agreed to buy another dress for the wedding. Her revenge on her ex-husband's new wife is to wear the dress to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding and steal the new wife's thunder so that if the new wife does wear hers to the wedding, tongues will wag. "OMG, did you see John's new wife is wearing the exact same dress his ex-wife wore to the dinner last night? OMG!!!!"

The only way for the new wife to save face is to not wear the dress to the wedding, and after dinner it will be too late to shop for a new dress and she'll have to wear something old from her closet. "OMG! Isn't that the same dress she wore to so-and-so's wedding?"

Either way, the new wife loses. :D
