Posts: 2046 (11/05/2009 2:36 PM) JJB Devil '09 Reply Quote More Recent Posts	As you know I have reason to believe that my BF will be proposing to me soon. (This is not what the topic is about). I was telling my best friend that I was thinking of songs and have been thinking about songs for the father/daughter dance and couldn't think of a good one that wasn't boring like "Unforgettable". She ended up telling me about how her dad had said he loved the song by Rascal Flatts, "My Wish" and that it reminded him of her and then she proceeded to tell me she would dance with him to that song when she got married. I love that song and thought what a great a song it would be if I danced to that song with my Dad. She told me that it was her idea and that it wasn't fair if I used the song she wanted to use because it had a special meaning to her and her Dad. My original thought was "WTF? Who tells someone that a song is off limits?" She isn't even engaged nor will be any time soon, so my question is, is she being dumb about me wanting to dance to that song on my wedding day with my Dad or is she being a selfish baby?

However, I do think its pretty thoughtless of you to jump on the song she wants, especially if it means so much to her.

People have weird hang-ups about baby names, song choices, et cetera. It's all weird to me, including planning a father/daughter dance before the proposal is even made. There are millions of songs out there. Be nice, and pick another one. Or pick your friend's song, and have a pissed off friend. Your choice.

There are some other lovely songs out there that you could use for your dance with your dad and I'm sure some of the people here would have some great alternatives.

I am pretty positive, no I am positive I will be engaged by the end of the month. No further details needed on that. The other stuff I agree with you on, and yeah it's not worth pissing her off so I will use another. I was just asking what inital thoughts some of you had.

Like someone's gonna stand up at her wedding and scream out "OMG! Someone ELSE used this at their wedding!" My song with my dad will be "You Got It" by Roy Orbison. You can use it if you want, I swear I won't care. LOL

I mean, if you guys had independently picked that song then I would probably just say she needs to get over it. But she had that song in her head, it has special meaning between her and her dad, and then when she told you about it, you decided you wanted to use it. It's kind of like if she showed you her wedding dress and then you decided you wanted that to be your wedding dress. Obviously it's not on the same scale, but I can kind of see where she's coming from.

It's not like you've both wanted it for years and years. It didn't come pop into your head the second you thought of a father daughter dance. Just pick a different song.

B/c then she'll get to sit through your wedding, bend over backwards for you, and then watch you and your dad dance to a song that was her idea. Edit: I didn't realize you aren't engaged yet. Why worry about this shit now? Worry about it when you need to.

As for your second paragraph-Ok, I will worry about that in a couple weeks. Thanks!

I don't know why everyone was like 'omg its just a song you don't ownz it!111' I mean, it's not just a song to her, it's describes her relationship with her dad and he came up with the idea of using it. It would make me sad, but perhaps I am too soft.
