try explaining to him that although he doesn't like America....it would mean a lot to you & your FH if he was there for your day.

I read the post wrong sorry...
Im sorry you are sad... i had wrote before that i was glad he has a phone and gave u his number.... and that my dad is here and doesnt care much about me....
so in a way you are very lucky he wrote to you. Invite him, call him and tell him how muchit would mean to you...

aw im sorry to hear that. on the plus side, he does still keep in touch and now you have his phone number. im sure he will change his mind about coming to your wedding as the date gets closer. the more you talk to him the more he will realize that he cant miss his daughter getting married no matter how much he doesnt like the US.

Aw, I am sorry to hear that. Its tough. Having divorced parents aren't fun and living in another country makes it even more painful. Hopefully he will change his mind.

It never hurts to try. Maybe he will decide that he wants to see you walk down the isle. Hope all turns out well for you.

Don't give up yet! You have over a year to pursuade him to come.
Maybe it you talk to him regularly over the next year and talk about the wedding plans, he'll change his mind!

Re: im sad
i think that you should call him or even write to him and explain how much it would mean to you if he came...that he dosen't have to stay in america forever just for ur wedding
hope everything goes okay w/ this
