I’m upset that he would choose his family over our daughter.
There has been much talk about the wedding, with several wedding-related conversations in the presence of my 12-year-old daughter. In front of the family, I told my daughter that we could get her a beautiful dress to wear to the wedding. We then bought a dress.My daughter was really upset when I told her that she wasn’t invited to the wedding. I feel that the family should have taken me aside in advance to let me know she was excluded.My husband plans to attend the wedding without me.
I am considering not even inviting them this year since A) they never come and B) they stress us out with their last-minute “no.” Contact them the week before Thanksgiving to follow-up, saying something like, “I’m assuming that we won’t see you for Thanksgiving this year, but I just wanted to follow through on our invitation. We’d love to see you, so please let us know today if you can make it.”
I urge people to consider purchasing travel insurance, along with their cruising ticket. Insurance helped me to recover my deposit when I had to cancel due to COVID.You can email Amy Dickinson at [email protected] or send a letter to Ask Amy, P.O. Box 194, Freeville, NY 13068.
