DEAR ABBY: My husband and I will celebrate our 22nd wedding anniversary on the seventh of next month. My brother was divorced after five years of marriage and is now getting remarried by a justice of the peace. His "bride" is also divorced, and this will be a second marriage for both of them. They initially planned to be married on the third of the month but changed the date to the seventh saying they couldn't find another date that worked.
Last time I checked, there were 31 days in the month. Our parents don't understand why I'm upset that my brother plans to marry on my wedding anniversary date. I feel this is my special day, one that I have earned after 22 years of marriage. My brother and his fiancee could easily pick another date. Am I being petty, or is my brother unreasonable? -- THAT'S MY DAY IN MICHIGAN

Would it bother you?
Getting married on their wedding anniversary?!?!!
I agree with the advice and no it wouldn't bother me it's a day that I can guarantee another couple in the world has gotten married on.

That’s dumb. Who cares when they marry?
My mother remarked that my brother picked his parents anniversary to marry. She thought it odd. But it's not like she cared and neither would l.

I saw this earlier. I don’t really see the big deal. If someone decided to get married on my anniversary, I wouldn’t really think anything of it. I mean, the day is only important to my husband and me, and this doesn’t change that. Who cares.

Dear Abby's advice is spot on. This lady doesn't own the day and a bit ridiculous.
