[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 672384, member: 17461"] I wish we had buttons for horror or sadness pasa, and not just for friendly or funny or like. I am glad you stood up to your family and refused to allow them to attend your wedding...but what a terrible situation. It seems our families of origin manage somehow to dirty us, to cheapen or spoil what they touch even when those things they tarnish are legitimately ours, chosen and bought and paid for by us. And still, they find some way to have it for their own, or to cheapen every small or large thing and suck the magic right out of it. I feel badly for that young woman, her bridal dress soiled. It's the symbolism. You cannot "fix" a wedding dress someone else has worn. Cedar I have been ashamed in front of D H for my family of origin, too. [/QUOTE]
