It may seem like accepting a role like maid of honor or best man is an easy thing to do, but anyone who has stepped into the role and really taken it on knows there’s a lot more to it than showing up on the wedding day.
So much, in fact, that some people think doing it once is more than enough – and these 11 people are about to tell you exactly why.
11. That’s gonna be a fun speech.
I hope no one can tell.
10. It can be expensive.
And not all brides are very appreciative of the sacrifice.
9. It’s going to haunt her.
Hopefully not forever, but for awhile.
8. They get no respect.
They’re doing an awful lot of work.
7. Why is this such a thing?
Brides need to chill the heck out.
6. Her friends might not be your friends.
After this, maybe no one will be friends.
5. Just say no.
And stick to your guns.
4. Smart people learn their lessons.
Maybe not the first time, but eventually.
3. That seems like too much to ask.
It’s not even her wedding!
2. You don’t have to say yes.
Maybe people don’t realize that.
1. There’s no getting rid of her either.
Blood relatives and all of that.
I mean, once you hear these stories it’s hard to blame them, right?
