DearPrudie: She got married and started having babies right after college while I traveled the world and started my career.
Last night, 50-plus years of bottled-up dislike for my own appearance burst out at once. I didn’t hurt anyone else, just cried for a couple of hours. I’ll work through it—I generally do—but am questioning whether to share any of the situation with my grown daughter. The precipitating event was my receipt of a batch of her small-wedding photos.
I was there. She’s gorgeous, the venue’s gorgeous, and all the other people are gorgeous . The photographer is a newbie so didn’t coach, say, correcting my stance. I’m a frog. Cleaned up well, in shiny shoes, but in a dress that came in wrong for proportions, too late for re-order. Shorter by a head than everyone else, short, fat bowed legs. Goofy earnest grin. I hadn’t looked at the back of my hair after the girls “did” it, yuck. None of which I particularly saw until the photos came back.
