Search Results: boyfriend attitude

So my boyfriend and I had a funny thought about weddings.

My boyfriend and I were watching Bridezillas (he hates it, but it's my guilty pleasure), and we were already talking about our wedding. Plans are to be engaged after a year (so September), but he kept saying that it would be fun for me to plan it and pick everything, but just run it past him. Then I told him it was our wedding so he should help, and he agreed. But I told him that he didn't really see it as 'his' because he doesn't want to participate. He just wants to reserve the right to say 'no'. And I told him most guys are like that. They get pissy about the 'my wedding' attitude brides have, but most guys don't actually help plan anything. The woman does, and the man is along for the ride to say yes or no. But they don't have an opinion on anything. They want it picked out for them and presented to them so they can approve or deny it.

He sat there for a moment, laughed, and eventually admitted I was right. He doesn't really want to look at flowers or go to cake tastings or pick out silverware. He just wants to try the food and pick the venue with me, but do nothing else. But he wants to have an opinion. So basically I go out and find everything, present it to him, and he can say yes or no. He has 3 brothers, all have been married, and they were like that. My sister's husband was like that. My dad was like that. He was in 3 friend's wedding, and he said every one of his friends were like that.

Guys, why are you like this when it comes to weddings? OR are you?
