[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 342486, member: 1233"] Another voice encouraging you to go. Show how classy and great you are by being as sweet and charming as possible. learning how to make "Thank You" genuine thanks, "F" You", flirting, and three other things is a good place to start if you need some help with the southern charm thing. Southern women really ARE steel magnolias. Watch The Closer (esp the first season), Steel Magnolias and Designing Women if you need help. Fried Green Tomatoes is also an EXCELLENT reference for this (and my favorite movie of all time!). By being there, polite, happy for your son, taking part as mother of the groom (maybe insist on a red velvet armadillo cake for the groom's cake - I will even bake it for you!), and always, ALWAYS being polite and gracious to those women and everyone else, you will be remembered by the other guests for your charm. Phrases like "I am so sorry you feel that way." and "Oh, what a shame!" can also be useful. For those who pretend they are in pain I LOVE my gfgbro's phrase, "Oh, sweetie, it will feel better when it stops hurting!" is awesome! (We always seem to have one of these at events.) I am so sorry it seems like he is testing you. He may be. Mostly he is showing his ignorance and low living. Show your class and high standards and then go home and get drunk and eat too much dessert. I am serious about the cake. Imagine a big, gray cake shaped like an armadillo that has bright red velvet cake inside so it looks like it is bleeding when it is cut. That would put a chuckle on anyone's face, wouldn't it?
