im not invited to my own dads wedding?!

I’m 15 and my dads getting married abroad and isn’t inviting me to the wedding, I used to get on really well with him and this is his first marrage, im his only daughter. Do you think this out of order or am over reacting?

Answer #1

yeah, god.. I dont know WHAT I’d do if I was you. id honestly tell him how I was feeling, seirously. I mean a lot of people say they would but I actually would. if he can hurt you like that, whether he realizes he is or not you should be able to stand up for yourself and talk to him about it.

I mean I can understand that it’s in jamaica and the cost to send you and other people out there for a wedding would just be rediculous but.. I don’t know? I mean I guess it’s always been either hers or his dream to get married abroad but, he’s got to think about his family and the people he’s hurting along the way. I’d say something. and if his new fiance gets mad at you for saying something about you just be like “listen here, bi-atch. this is MY family you’re stepping in to, okay. dont expect me to not want to be at my dads wedding, mmmkay” lol, no.. dont actually say that to her, haha.

but yeah, dude. that’s pretty f’d up, forreal. im sorry, hunny =(

Consider, too, the possibility that he doesn’t want to instigate problems between you and your mother.

For whatever reasons, he may just be trying to prevent any problems, whether for him, his fiancée or you.

Answer #4

I understand why you would be mad, but you’re being a bit selfish, your dad is marrying a woman he loves, it sounds like their wedding in Jamaica is a vacation meant so they can spend some time alone without other family being around(which can be stressful for everyone involved sometimes)

new couples on their honeymoon in Jamaica don’t need a teenager to put a damper on their romantic time.

Answer #5

You have every right to be upset. He is your father and it’s natural for you to want to be there for him. Being that he’s getting married in Jamaica that might be why he’s not inviting you. Especially since he’s not inviting anyone. Think about maybe when they get back if they could have a small service here for you to attend, or maybe think about having a reception for them. This would show your dad that while you might not like your new step mother you’re still going to accept her. Talk to your dad about it. If you tell him that you would like to be there to see him get married maybe he will agree to a small ceremony here or a reception.

Good luck
