I am to be married in August, we were engaged in March. My sister is my only attendant. No one has offered to host a shower and that would be fine, I know that a shower is optional and I don't really need one. The problem is that people keep asking me about it -- MOG, sister-in-law, cousins, other friends -- and I don't have a response. Then the silence and the face -- the "she's a pathetic loser bride" face. And it makes me cry. So my question is what do I say when asked about a shower? And how do I stop feeling like the pathetic loser bride?

I cannot imagine why all of these people are asking you about a shower as if you would have any control or knowledge of it. But, you don't have to feel like a loser. First, you never know - someone may be planing a surprise shower. But, even if they aren't, showers aren't really needed anymore. If these people insist on asking you, I would just say that I am not aware of any shower plans. Perhaps they are trying to feel you about about it.
Now, regarding feeling like a loser - see the glass half full! You have found your mate, right? The perfect man, right? Not everyone can say that. He certainly didn't ask you to marry him because he thinks you're a loser. Look around you and see the positives in your life. And, plan a wonderful wedding!
