[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 495707, member: 1233"] Oh, I think there is a second reason. Your daughter seems very motivated by cold hard cash. I am wondering what Daddy Dearest and Dr. C have offered to give her to keep you out. They KNOW you helped with the move in, have had dinners, etc.... I am sure Dr. C is VERY VERY threatened because seh KNOWS what a piece o garbage she is. Only you can make the choice to go to the wedding or not. I have an adopted gma who refused to attend my wedding. We sent reception invites but ceremony invites were deeply personal and limited. husband and I both felt strongly that this wasn't a ceremony, it was a sacred promise and only those we loved most deeply needed to be there. Each person who was invited was invited face to face if possible and we told them WHY we wanted them there and how much they meant to us. I spent an hour with this person telling her how much I loved her and how much she meant to me. The day before the wedding she dropped off an expensive gift and told me she wasn't coming since I didn't care about her. I was crushed and devastated. I spent an HOUR telling her how much I loved her, how much she meant, and how much having her there, at X church at y time meant to me. It still hurts but now I understand. Her husband went into the hospital with heart trouble between invite and ceremony. She forgot. That hurts, but she was in her seventies and people do forget. We patched things up sort of after that, but it was never the same. We both regretted it and tried hard for a long time. I dont' understand L, and I understand her dad and dr C even less. I hope her father knows how he broke his daughter. That is HIS to live iwth - he did this on purpose, in my opinion. Destroyed his daughter's ability to love. [/QUOTE]
