I went to the christening. I didn't go to the ceremony cause I had my fitting today. It was kinda awkward when my brother tried to kiss me hello. I absentmindedly took a step back when he went to lean in and it kinda was like I'm not kissing you so he just walked away and didn't say anything to me the whole day.
My newest mental dilemma is whether or not I should send him an email expressing my feelings since I was a blubbering mess when he told me that he might not come to the wedding. It might or might not matter, but I feel it would be good for me to get what I am feeling/thinking off my chest.

BJ, I would definitely send an email expressing your feelings....you need to get it off your chest & it would be helpful for him to hear how you feel.

I would definitely let him know how you feel. I think it will make you feel better getting off your chest.

i say send the email....and btw...you went to his child's christening, but he's going to skip your wedding??? yes, send the email...he needs to understand that you really are hurt/upset. you are obviously the better person...i might have skipped the christening due to the threat of skipping the wedding!!!

I think it would be a good idea to get it off your chest. Maybe he'll change his mind about coming to the wedding, and if he doesn't, you haven't lost anything.

I recommend sending an email as well. It seems as though your brother doesn't want to have any hard feelings too.

Not that you aren't entitled to your opinion - but I think you may have missed BJ's earlier post about her brother saying he isn't coming to her wedding. Hence the reason she felt uncomfortable when he approaced her etc.
IMHO, he should be grateful she showed up AT ALL after the way he has treated her.

And it was a communion, not a christening. It is in the town of Lindenhurst were apparently 1,000 children all recieve their communion at the same time. I went last year for his other daughters (my god daughter) and it was miserable for everyone.
But that isnt't really the point. As Darlene said..... he stated he might not come to my wedding because he doesn't like my fiance. That is why I am not apologizing for anything, just wanting to tell him my opinion.

Re: More brother dilemma..... need opinions ladies
I don't know the whole story here but I would probably send an e-mail.
That said, be prepared for not getting much resolution from doing so. He might not answer. He might answer in a way that will just make you more angry/hurt.
